Marv Update: Coming Next Week!
In the last update, we released a set of rough, hand-drawn character sprites for every character except Marv, which was the first phase of our ongoing art overhaul.
Why wasn't Marv in the last update? Well, our design for him is very ambitious and complex. In the placeholder graphics, his forest spirite Jayne appears during some of his special moves, but in the redesign, Jayne is always present, and, for story reasons, is doing basically all of the fighting. In a sense, Marv is a "reverse puppet character"!
We hope that you will enjoy this new addition, and we appreciate your patience as we continue to roll out updates to the game's visuals.
