2020 Spring Showcase/Presentations/ShadicMCGS

This presentation is now redundant and outdated, as of September 13th, 2020.
Ah hey all, here! And welcome to the 2020 spring showcase for Topaz Central. It's been a long time since showcases have been a thing, heck, it's almost been a full year since the first and only Topaz Central Direct. But anyways, with showcases, this means more people will get noticed by others, and I'm glad to be part of the revival!
Anyways, let's kick things off, with our first reveal!
P.S. Sorry for the lack of logos on Games 2 and 3, I'm pretty bad at making logos, so I didn't make any for them.P.P.S. Sorry for the long editing time of the games!
==Game 1: March 20-21==
===A Newcomer Revealed!===
"Whether an echo or not, an elemental they are."
----
The presentation immediately starts with a CGI trailer, and shows that the trailer takes place in the kingdom of Hyrule. A horse galloping is heard and it's revealed to be Link riding on Epona, and is being chased by possessed versions of both Robin and Palutena. Epona trips and Link stumbles, and now weakened, is cornered by the two and looks like Link is done for. But behind them, an unknown figure summons big hands and grabs the two, summoning rocks under them and spiking them upwards. The unknown figure approaches Link and eventually reveals to be...
Isaac Lends a Hand!
The trailer then transitions to gameplay footage, where it shows Isaac's moveset and attacks, showing that his psynergy magic uses many spells, such as Vine, Move, Scoop, Gaia, and his final Smash, Judgment! During this montage, a new stage is revealed called Venus Lighthouse, Isaac's home stage from the Golden Sun series. After the trailer, it transitions to the logo of the game being combined. At the end of the trailer, a gold ring appears in the grass as Isaac and Link walk away. Another mysterious figure appears to pick it up.
That's right, on the game's return, Isaac, from the Golden Sun series, is lending a hand for his allies! After being an Assist Trophy for two games, and being absent in Smash 4, he's finally getting the treatment he deserves! For those who don't know, Isaac comes from the Golden Sun series, which is a fantasy RPG series that follows a group of "Adepts" as they go through their world of enemies, puzzles and missions. When deciding the moveset of this character, it was pretty easy to determine what moves should appear, as fans have already made him a moveset, specifically the guys at McLeodGaming, as they featured Isaac as a playable character in Super Smash Flash 2. Because of this, he was relatively easy to develop, with the only issue being balancing.
Isaac uses many spells he has in his games in Elementals. The most notable and common move is, well, Move! It appears as his standard attack, his grabs, his throws, his side special, named Move and his up special named Scoop. His vines appear as his forward tilt named Growth, and his standard special named Vine. His down tilt is Thorn and he'll summon a spike underneath his opponents. His down smash, Quake, will summon 4 stone pillars at his sides, so be careful! Punji is his up tilt and some sticks will grow in front of him. And his Final Smash is Judgment, where he  summons the aforementioned spirirt and fires down at trapped opponents.
Of course, a newcomer reveal isn't complete without a new stage. And that stage is the Venus Lighthouse, the final dungeon of the first Golden Sun game. It's a large-sized stage with no gimmicks whatsoever. The stage is also filled lots of music from the Golden Sun series. This is including the song "Battle Scene / Final Boss", from the Golden Sun: The Lost Age, the sequel to the original.
===A "Stage"... That's Back?===
Gameplay footage starts and shows Mario running through the stage. Then an enemy appears in front of him and attacks him, before Mario defeats it. The enemy leaves behind a few icons of a green boot, blue shield, and orange fist. He grabs them and zooms out to see the whole game screen, and on the bottom right shows stats, increasing stats of three of those. It then transitions abruptly to a splash screen that says:
Smash Run is Back!
That's right! After many people requesting this game back, we brought it back for you! While it may look the same by default, there are a few differences. First off, up to 4 players can now play split-screen on the same screen, so that way, the mayhem can be more fun and intense! And secondly... players will now face on the same map! This feature kept this mode away from being one of the best modes of the series, but now with this, Smash Run can be enjoyed by more now!
===More Fighters?===
It then suddenly switches to gameplay footage, where a pink figure drops down and music from Super Mario Bros. 2 plays. It then pans up, and the pink figure would turn around, revealing that...
Birdo Pops Out an Egg!
Gameplay footage of her shows that she's an echo of Yoshi, for the most part, with moves such as Egg Shot as a neutral special, Egg Toss as her up special, and her Final Smash consisting for eggs being fired like fireballs into the air and rain down. But this segment isn't done yet! It then transitions to a snowy factory, and an explosion occurs, revealing another unknown figure, who's quickly revealed to be...
Big Boss Explodes Our Minds!
Gameplay footage of him shows that he's an echo of Snake, with almost the exact same moveset, aside from weapons. It ends with Big Boss Final Smash, which is that same as Snakes Final Smash.
Yep folks! Both Birdo from the Super Mario series and Big Boss from the Metal Gear series are joining the battle! These two fighters are our first echo fighters of the game, and these two had factors that make them unique. Birdo, while a female character, has some ambiguity with her, with there being debate on her gender. With Big Boss, his costumes represent two different decades. We hope you can enjoy these characters!
===Need Help?===
Gameplay footage plays once again, with Mario approaching a trophy-like item. He holds it up, and summons another entity, which is revealed to be Starfy from the Starfy series. The montage consists of other characters that are revealed to be Assist Trophies, which are:
*Andross from Star Fox
*Devil from Devil World
*Dr. Wright from SimCity
*Hammer Bro. from Super Mario
*Jeff from EarthBound	
*Knuckle Joe from Kirby
*Metroid from Metroid
*Nintendog from Nintendogs
*Samurai Goroh from F-ZERO
*Starfy from The Legendary Starfy
===One More Thing...===
Thank you for staying with us for this first presentation. Our staff will continue to develop this games to be as great as possible. That being said, expect this game to release last out of the four being covered in the showcase. However, we have one more reveal left... Please, take a look!
It then transitions to a CGI trailer where Sonic leads a team of fighters, who are facing of another team, which is basically the Originals vs. the Echoes. Both teams are equally matched, until an unknown projectile impacts with the originals. An unknown figure approaches Sonic, and is revealed to be...
Shadow Brings Out the Chaos!
The trailer then transitions to gameplay footage, where it shows Shadow's moveset and attacks. While some moves are from Sonics, most moves are from Shadow alone, especially with his Chaos powers. During this montage, a new stage is revealed called Radical Highway, Shadow's home stage from Sonic Adventure 2. After the trailer, it transitions to the game's logo.
==Game 2: March 22-24==
"Ride through gravity!"
----
Hey all, Shadic here, and welcome to the second day of Topaz Centrals 2020 Spring Showcase. Today, we were intially going to unveil Mario Party Stars properly, but we thought that the game didn't have enough new announcements to show off, so sadly, the game won't be showcased. However, we do have another game, about a blue blur and his buddies, to showcase. Please take a look!
===What is it?===
It transitions to a CGI trailer, showing Team Heroes preparing to race Team Babylon in Green Hill (unfortunately), right before the race starts. Both teams walk back and then run towards the start line to start the race. They board their Extreme Gears and race off. Two other teams, Team Eggman and Team Dark, race each other on Chemical Plant, with Eggman getting absolutely wrecked with electricity. Another two teams, Team Rose and Team Chaotix, race each other on Sky Sanctuary, with Big the Cat being bounced around too much, and Espio fires an Orange Rocket and hits Amy. The final two teams, Team Sol and Team Wild, race on Hydrocity and Zavok knocks Sticks and Blaze out, but then Silver shoots an Ivory Lightning at him that shocks Zavok. It then cuts back to Team Heroes vs. Team Babylon, where the race ends, revealing the game to be... Team Sonic Riders!
Team Sonic Riders is a new installment of the often overlooked Sonic Riders series, where 8 players race against each other on hoverboards, named Extreme Gear. Along the way, the racers use random items found on the track, in order to stop their opponents from getting to the start line first. The first one to get to said line wins!
===Items?===
Items are found at random spots on the track, commonly appearing where the racers may need them. There are four classifications of the items: Common, where items have the highest chance of being chosen and are mostly defensive items to keep their lead. Rare, where items have a lower (but still high) chance and are focused on stopping the leader and overtaking them. Epic, where items have a much lower chance and can help the struggling racers or hinder the leaders. And finally, Legendary, where items have the lowest chance and aid the racers in last place overtake the others.
In total, there are 16 items in the game, with 4 per category. Now you might be wondering, what are the items? Well, let's take a look!
A montage of gameplay footage plays, showing the 16 items, which are:
*Invincibility (Legendary) - When obtained, the racer would remain invulnerable for a short time.
*Rings (Common) - When collected, it slightly increases a racer's speed, and can be used to unlock Gear Parts.
*Snowballs (Epic) - When obtained, the racer will be able to throw multiple snowballs, and if they hit anybody, they'll be slowed down.
*Glove (Rare) - When obtained, the racer will block any projectiles that hit them from behind, and it can be used to their advantage.
*Parts Lock (Epic) - It'll prevent the racer to perform Gravity actions, and they'll be surrounded by bolts that slow them down, for a small amount of time.
*Attack (Legendary) - It will allow the user to run on the course at full speed on foot, and the racer can strike their opponents with exclusive attacks for 10 seconds.
*GP Boost (Common) - It will give the user an amount of Gravity Points, depending on how much the user has.
*White Wisp (Rare) - When used, it gives the racer a huge boost of speed. The number of boosts that can be used varies, depending on the distance between the racer and the leader.	
*Cyan Wisp (Rare) - When used, it'll lock onto an opponent, in its range, and blasts them with a laser after a short time.
*Yellow Wisp (Legendary) - It transforms the racer into a high-speed drill ramming into others and the duration depends on the distance between the racer and the leader.
*Orange Wisp (Common) - It fires straight ahead and can bounce off walls, exploding when it hits an opponent.
*Blue Wisp (Common) - When dropped behind, it's used as a barrier, and damages an opponent when hit.
*Crimson Wisp (Epic) - When used, it homes into the racer in first place, and explodes on impact.
*Ivory Wisp (Legendary) - When used, it strikes the leading opponent with lightning unless you take damage or they can dodge out of the way in time.
*Black Wisp (Rare) - When used, a bomb is thrown ahead, which explodes after a short delay or if an opponent hits it.
*Jade Wisp (Epic) - When used, it makes you intangible, preventing you from colliding with anything, and steals a Wisp from a nearby opponent.
===Enter the Contestants!===
Now that we have the items to spice up the race, let's enter the contestants in this Grand Prix! We'll go by each team, starting with:
====Team Heroes====
Sonic the Hedgehog 	Miles "Tails" Prower	Knuckles the Echidna
 	 	
Speed Type 	Flight Type 	Power Type
Top Speed: ★★★★★ 	Top Speed: ★★☆☆☆ 	Top Speed: ★★★★☆
Acceleration: ★☆☆☆☆	Acceleration: ★★★★☆ 	Acceleration: ★★☆☆☆
Handling: ★★☆☆☆ 	Handling: ★★★☆☆ 	Handling: ★★☆☆☆
Boost: ★★★★☆ 	Boost: ★☆☆☆☆ 	Boost: ★★★☆☆
Jump: ★★★☆☆ 	Jump: ★★★★★ 	Jump: ★★★★☆
First off, we have the beginner team of the game, Team Heroes! They're the most balanced team of the Grand Prix and can rely on each other to get to the end!
The captain of the team is Sonic the Hedgehog, the fastest thing alive, and is the fastest racer of the entire Grand Prix! Sonic is a speed type, meaning that his top speed and boost are useful to get back into the pack! Despite his fast speed, he can get a bit out of control sometimes, and can get off course a few times. But that being said, he can boost back into the action!
The second member of the team is Miles "Tails" Prower, Sonic's best buddy! Tails is a flight type, meaning that his jump is extremely high, allowing him to glide through the air and dash rings. However, he isn't the fastest racer though, so you really need to make sure to maintain a lead with him, because one hit could be the difference, between a win and a loss!
The final member of the team is Knuckles the Echidna, Sonic's friendly rival and the guardian of the Master Emerald! Knuckles is a power type, meaning that he won't be knocked around as much. However, his cornering and acceleration isn't that good, so as long as he doesn't go out of control much, he should win!
====Team Babylon====
Jet the Hawk 	Storm the Albatross	Wave the Swallow
 	 	
Speed Type 	Power Type 	Flight Type
Top Speed: ★★★★☆ 	Top Speed: ★☆☆☆☆ 	Top Speed: ★★★☆☆
Acceleration: ★★☆☆☆	Acceleration: ★★★★★	Acceleration: ★★★☆☆
Handling: ★★☆☆☆ 	Handling: ★★★★☆ 	Handling: ★★★☆☆
Boost: ★★★☆☆ 	Boost: ★☆☆☆☆ 	Boost: ★★★☆☆
Jump: ★★★★☆ 	Jump: ★★★★☆ 	Jump: ★★★☆☆
Next, we have the rival team of Team Heroes, Team Babylon, also known as the Babylon Rogues! They're one of the first contestants to appear in the Grand Prix!
Jet the Hawk is the captain of the team, and "A" rival (yes, "A" rival) to Sonic. Like Sonic, he's a speed type, but slower than the blue blur himself. Also like the blue blur, he doesn't corner well, so he can get out of control sometimes. However, as long as you can control Jet well, he can sure catch up to Sonic and prove to him, Jet's the fastest thing in the universe.
Storm the Albatross is the second member of the team
Wave the Swallow is the final member of the team
====Other Teams====
There are so many other racers that are entering the Grand Prix, but we won't have time to go through all of them! But make sure to root for these racers when the Grand Prix begins!

===Reveal the Courses!===
Of course (get it?), racers can't race without somewhere to race on, and thankfully we have you covered! All of the tracks come from the main series, plus a few more, but we'll only reveal few today. Please, take a look!
It transitions to gameplay footage, and shows the following race courses, which are:
*Lost Valley - Based on the iconic Green Hill Zone from the original Sonic the Hedgehog, this course is your basic racing tracks, with tricks on ramps, one loop de loop, and small cave for a Gravity Dive!
*Macky Factory - This factory has been polluted with "Mega Mack" (hence the name), so while it can give a boost in racing, it does come with a few side effects, so be careful when you're in tight spaces!
center|285px
*Metalopolis - Based on Sonic CDs Stardust Speedway, in this track, spikes and springs pop out randomly, and it's one of a few tracks that has one whole lap, with three different sections, so other gimmicks might show up, such as vines!
*Sanctuary Falls - Our first returning track from Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed, now reworked to work in the Sonic Riders style, with waterfalls, falling bridges, teleportation devices, and more!
*Sprint Freeway - This track's whole gimmick is speed, and there are many obstacles that can boost and hinder your momentum, such as bulldozers, cones, dash pads, and hurdles! And in this track, you can Gravity Dive downwards!
*Central Breakout - Attempt to escape the military, by going through parks, roads, towns, and then being chased by a colossal military truck!
*Whale Palace - Combining the courses Lost Palace, Whale Lagoon, and Ocean View from past Sonic racing games, racers will be able to race along vertical bridges, and bounce off whales that pop out!
*Doom's City - Based on Shadow the Hedgehogs Westopolis, this Dark Arms-dominated city is now populated by said army, and will attempt to disturb the races! Also watch out for holes, gates, and falling debris!
*Infernal Crisis - Ruled by the god, Iblis, this course has been polluted with lava, magma monsters, and unstable ground! But, look out for grind rails, that'll help you in the race!
*Market Street - Returning from Team Sonic Racing, this has been heavily reworked for the Grand Prix, with rails, dash rings, and large areas for Gravity Dives!
*Wisp Circuit - Also returning from Team Sonic Racing, racers can grind on the Mother Wisp's arms, and can punch through obstacles in the factory!
*Industrial Glacier -
*Studiopolis - The only course in this presentation to have the same name as its original course,
*Gleaming Jungle -
===Hints Again?===
*A new, revamped track roster focusing on the main series.
*More new Extreme Gears would be revealed!
*A new mode that has multiple stories?
