np, as a fellow video gaming based VN fanfic maker, i tend to try to give constructive criticism, since i know most ppl just say it's awsome, or it sucks. I like pleasing the former group, ignore the latter. but neither usually provide too much constructive criticism.
I really dont think i have right to critique story, considering I watched pilot ep only, and it usually takes a bit of extra uniqueness to impress me. I would rather discuss things like story personally and not thru a msg board anyways.
1 thing about mugen stories in general, is that the battles mostly seem like game battles per say. which is 1 reason why i prefer 1 round. I took things a little further while making a fanfic.
http://www.wenoo.net/video/a0f905fd59e718ca05e
here's an example a 1 shot mugen fanfic I made(yes I did some of my own art as well as edited some pics). note how I transition the battles into the story line.
1 of my goals was kind of to make a mugen fanfic, that didnt completely seem like it. and seemed more like a visual novel where the battles were part of the story line. I got the idea since I posted my earlier works on a yuri forum, and 1 person mentioned how my drifting series had racing battles(done with another game) really seemed like it was part of a story, while my already completeld mugen series lacked..
whether you like my style, I wouldn't know, but it would take a bit of extra video editing.
another thing i might add are parts where characters are just standing still. if you record a scene of them standing, which can be done in training or vs, and then just loop that scene, they seem more lifefull. Most ppl dont recognize that but it's 1 of my pet peeves.
maybe these tips may help ur future eps get more detailed.
been forever since i watched a mugen fanfic.
watched 1 ep. donno if i'll watch the rest, since I donno if it'll hold my interests.
some constructive critisism:
-font was really hard to read, with the way you chose the background.font colors, and no font bordrs in some places
-battles were way too long. I personally think most mugen fanfic are better with just 1 rounds battles. or if you want a more cinematic appraoch, and dont mind more editing, do something similar to what I did with Setsuko Xmas Tale
Features:
- Color Separation by Froz
- Specials and Super moves from his various incarnations
- Over 120 palettes
- Config file
He doesn't have Orochi mode at the moment, It will be implemented in future updates
update to 2013-10-06:
- fixed the corner close Strong attack air juggle infinite
- made the Attack Touch partner (herself) come out faster
- now it takes even more hits to make Beatrice enter her dizzy state (advised by Bjay)
- removed some more portion of "Boomer's OMK characters only" compatibility
- made the Meta Super (Summon Twin Battle Towers) firing faster
- tweaked the updated A.I.
- fixed some minor things.........
I think it is time to get her out of WIP now.
Please visit my release topic here:
All new feedback please post in my release topic, not here anymore, thank you!
What I have edited (up to 2013-10-03):
- Boomer uses the P1 SP bar for the original Touch bar, now I switched it back to match that of the source game
- I have gotten YU-TOHARU's permission to use his OMK MUGEN Touch bar and partner SP bar, yet, fully making use of these only makes MUGEN1.0 slow down further, especially during the firing of the Meta Super (Summon Twin Battle Towers), so, I gave up about that and added a mini version of the Touch bar and partner SP bar
* please see the included Custom_OMK_Beatrice_WIP_MUGEN_min_Touch_bar.png for a preview or here:
* the left one is showing available Touch chance
* the right one is showing unavailable/waiting Touch chance
- added the "what-the-heck" Halloween mocking sound whenever P1 (except Beatrice) gets thrown by Beatrice
- reduced the transparency of the Meta Super (Summon Twin Battle Towers)
- reduced the volume of the firing of the Meta Super (Summon Twin Battle Towers)
- fixed the PalFX that worked for all Beatrice's golden butterfly transformation before having used the FF3 MUGEN1.0 SFF palette group 1,2 for the alternative Touch partner color
- fixed the Normal Touch display text
- now it takes more hits to make Beatrice enter her dizzy state (advised by Bjay)
- removed transparency for the Seven Sisters/Stakes of Purgatory (advised by SXVector)
- added some more A.I. (now she is a bit more challenging than the previous update)
- fixed some minor things.........

To-do list:
- while waiting for further user test result (thanks a bunch in advance), I will try to:
1. watch more OMK Beatrice YouTube videos to get to know what she can do during matches so that I can work on her A.I. (for now her A.I. is really crappy)
2. bug fix/tweak........
For MUGEN1.0 ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much for your interest and time and considerable help! Keep your cool feedback coming!
Plan A: add Beatrice to Boomer's Lucifer and make them Touch-able like in the source game
After working on Plan A for a while.............found it was just too hard to an un-skillful me!
So.......then switch to Plan B.
Plan B: edit Boomer's Battler to make a stand-alone Beatrice.
Still using Boomer's default button layout:
"x" - Weak attack
"a" - Medium attack
"y" - Strong attack
"start" - Appeal
"c" - Touch
What I have edited in my Plan B:
- added Beatrice sprites and her VFX (I think only a minor portion are missing..........)
- added some of Beatrice sounds (still working on the Custom_OMK_Beatrice.snd at the moment...)
- coded all Beatrice normals, specials, supers, metas, in my usual half-assing way :p
- removed a small portion of "Boomer's OMK characters only" compatibilty
- tried to complete Boomer's OMK Touch system, by Touching Beatrice herself, in MUGEN (again in my usual half-assing way :p)
1. Normal Touch: when idle, command = "c"
2. Attack Touch: when hitting P2, command = "c"
3. Guard Touch: when guarding, command = "c"
4. Damage Touch: when getting hit, command = "c"
5. Assault Touch: when rushing to P2 and hit P2, command = "c"
**** these Touches are glitchy and wonky ****
Some MUGEN technical issues I am facing:
1. The Meta Super (Summon Twin Battle Towers), while I kind of managed to get it to work, it slows my MUGEN1.0 down very much! I think there are too many helpers with AngleDraw, PalFX, and Trans in effect at the same time.......see if you can help me out about this!
2. Since this time I am using Fighter Factory 3 to make MUGEN1.0 SFF, no ACT files are needed. But I don't have any idea about how to add the P2 palette (the blue Beatrice) to the SFF, so that when Beatrice does Touches two colors can be seen for a difference.
3. The Custom_OMK_Beatrice-Challenge.cns and some Challenge MUGEN code in the -2 and -3 CNS files......I really don't what the Challenge thing is all about....I understand other parts of Boomer's MUGEN code except this Challenge one....really challenging to me. :o
>> addressed and advised by SXVector already
Since I am not good at the source game as well as I suck at mugenizing accurate characters, I am sure I did something wrong and probably there are missing parts, so if anyone who knows OMK Beatrice and MUGEN authoring well, can then please help me pinpoint what more for me to do to make this Custom OMK Beatrice playable in MUGEN.........
I am kindly asking some certain MFFA members to beta-test this of my Custom OMK Beatrice WIP.
To-do list:
- while waiting for your test result (thanks a bunch in advance), I will try to:
1. complete the SND file
2. clean the SFF file
3. watch more OMK Beatrice YouTube videos to get to know what she can do during matches so that I can work on her A.I. (for now her A.I. is really crappy)
4. bug fix/tweak
5. improve by listening to beta-testers' advises (7-stake sister MUGEN transparency, HUD for HD resolution, FF3 palette adding,...etc. mentioned by SXVector)
I will try to make a video to show my try on completing Boomer's Touch System and to show the MUGEN technical issues I am facing, shortly after.
Ok here is the game play video I made and uploaded:
