Percht
A mod for the Modded Mountain Modding Marmelade jam, under the theme "Fearful Folklore"
A Percht is a being originating from Pre-Christian Alpine Folklore, which emerge in December, ringing Bells and cracking Whips as to drive away the Winter Spirits and bring upon a fruitfull Spring Season.
Gameplay description:
Percht is a character who can switch between two forms, Schönpercht ("Pretty") and Schiachpercht ("Ugly"), which give him access to an entirely different moveset each.
He can change between the forms either by using the Change Form special or by using moves with the "Quickswap" toggle (which acts similarily to Cowboy’s Draw and Robot’s Drive)
In the Pretty form, Percht can use Smoke Cloud and the Smokescreen Super to summon smoke.
While Percht is standing in smoke created by him, he can use the Smokeshift toggle – this will destroy the smoke projectile Percht was standing in and will start moving him towards the position of another chosen smoke projectile. Using Smokeshift targetting a smoke projectile which is above ground will apply a short burst of force towards it. Using Smokeshift applies a 2 frames penalty/delay to Percht’s current move.
In the Ugly form, Percht can blow up smoke projectiles with any of his fire moves. The explosion will also explode nearby smoke, causing a chain reaction.
In the Pretty form, Percht has a few whip-based moves. Using a whip based move (or Hustle) will decrease the start up of the next consecutive whip-based move by 3 frames.
