Fish Head Shovel Knight
Put out the helmet and take a good breath, the Fish Head Shovel Knight set is available now!
This skin comes with new animations, that apart of obviously replacing the top with his classic catfish look, adds a more expressive SK compared to the original. Now does faces in his attacks, damaged states, and more.
Also if you wonder, the hurtboxes are not affected with his new sprites. Didn’t wanted to modify it even if doesn’t reflect his big head, since would affect slightly to those who are used to play as him (me included). So yeah, same knight, different open look!
> New taunt animation for the extra/secret taunt, a little nod to Showdown and the catchphrase of our fella "???"
> Comes with 12 colors in total, take a look at the screenshots to see them
> The skin also covers the Abyss mode custom moves! (…except for one, more details below). It includes:
– Ichor of Fortune NSpecial
– Diagonal Drop DAir
– Burrow Bomber FTilt/FAir
– Chaos Orb UTilt
– Throwing Anchor USpecial

*****Notes:
There are a few problems where I got trouble with the skin. Mostly due to the game working with certain filenames different from what the community has on the base archives.
* Bait Bomb uses a different title than "dspecial_abyss", therefore my fish version of the move can’t be dysplayed right now in-game.
* The trace image on the Air Dodge also uses a different title, so he will still display normal SK. To work around this, I made the 2 parts into a single animation, so now Fish SK will look like a floating ghost when performs a dodge, heheh.
*Also, while minimal, Burrow Bomber has different files for the start and end frames when perofrmed on the ground, so could not change them as well. BUT, the middle of the attack takes the aerial sprites, so he will still be seen as fish when the attack is active.

And that’s it. Always enjoy this version of Shovel Knight, and I’m glad I can share it with you Rival players, have fun!
