====Special Moves====
*Eat Your Veggies: Dugs throws a stick of dynamite, which has been painted orange and the fuse green to look like a carrot, at close, medium, or far range depending on which button excluding Special is pressed. On Meter Burn, he throws a far "carrot," then a medium-range one, then a close one, all three of which also knock down the opponent while both characters are in mid-air. Can also be done in mid-air.
*Mad Dash: Dugs dashes at 100 miles per hour at his opponent, causing them to rapidly spin for three seconds. Once the opponent stops spinning, they enter a "confused" state, as indicated by them looking around with question marks above their head, and during which their controls are reversed. Meter Burn, in addition to adding two additional seconds to the spin duration, also increases the duration of the "confused." Can also be done in mid-air.
*What a Fingering: Dugs puts his thumb to his nose with the back of his hand facing his opponent and wiggles his middle finger in front of them, sending them, if they are within the attack's range, into an "enraged" state, during which their face turns completely red with angry cartoon eyebrows and steam blowing out of their head, and they gain a slight power and speed boost, but cannot use Hyper-Toons, will whiff attacks at times, have decreased defense, and are completely immune to knockdown attacks. Meter Burn increases the duration of the "enraged." This should be avoided in CPU battles.
*Jack-in-the-Boxing: Dugs lays a jack-in-the-box onto the ground, and if the opponent approaches it, a boxing glove springs out of it, punching them and causing a wall bounce. On Meter Burn, after the wall bounce, the spring-glove punches upwards at the foe, launching them further up in the air.
*Where's Dugs?: Dugs buries himself in the ground, evading his opponent's attacks in the process, and is free to wormsign left or right across the stage, but cannot jump or crouch for five seconds. Meter Burn adds three additional seconds to the hiding duration.
*Anvil Slam: Dugs takes an anvil out of hammerspace, raises it above his head, and slams it down on his opponent, flattening them. When they get back up, they go into a "slowed" state, indicated by a toon anvil falling on their feet and their movements having been slowed down. Meter Burn increases the damage of the attack and the duration of the "slowed." Can also be done in midair.
====Hyper-Toons====
*Slam-Dunk Slamdown: Dugs grabs at his opponent, during which he declares, "Let's play ball!", and if it connects, he'll shape them into a ball shape and dribble them like a basketball across the arena, then jump high up in the air and slam-dunk them through a basketball hoop, during which he calls out, "Nothin' but net!" The character on the receiving end of this Hyper-Toon returns to normal shape upon impact with the ground.
*Ear-Copter: Dugs says as he spins his ears like helicopter blades, "How 'bout this?", then flies at a horizontal angle towards his opponent, dealing six hits total if the Hyper-Toon connects. Can also be done in mid-air.
=====Level 3 Hyper-Toon=====
*Tricks are for Silly Rabbits: Dugs spins around for three seconds, during which he says, "Let's see if you can handle THIS, Doc!", changing into the disguise of a woman, and if he approaches the opponent closely enough, he'll take them by the back of the head with both hands and kiss their mouth, causing them to fall so madly in love that they fly high up into the sky. The next thing he does is, while the character on the receiving end of this move is still high up in the air, he sets down a row of bombs and, as soon as the foe lands back down, he takes a giant carrot out of hammerspace, holds it like a baseball bat in front of them, and calls out, "And it's a HOOOOOOME run, motherfucker!" as he swings and hits them into the bomb trap he set up earlier, which deals three hits total and blasts them into a giant slingshot, which Dugs rushes at at extreme velocity, followed by the rabbit pulling on the pocket, the opponent still on it, for three seconds until he lets go of them, during which he calls out, "To the moon!", and they are launched high up into the air again, this time into outer space where they fly at the moon and hit their face on its surface. Afterwards, the unfortunate opponent falls back down onto the arena floor at extreme velocity, during which Dugs says singsongingly, "This is the Level 3 Hyper-Toon!"
====Finishing Moves====
=====Deanimations=====
*Who Cares?: Dugs takes two bombs out of hammerspace, lights both of them, and throws the first one at his defeated opponent's feet, blowing them into a gory mess and launching them backwards. Then, as he declares, "See, kiddos? This whole Deanimation sequence is what got mine and the crew's asses fired...", and the character on the receiving end of the Deanimation goes flying, the rabbit throws the second bomb at them, obliterating their arms as well. What happens next, as Dugs continues on, "And my show cancelled!", he takes an anvil out of hammerspace and slams it into the arena floor, causing the hanging end to embed there, then the losing, limbless character falls onto the horn and is graphically impaled on it, their heart with them. Must be performed at jump distance.
*Close, But No Cigar!: Dugs takes a stick of dynamite out of hammerspace, then paints it brown with black lines to look like a cigar, humming the intro song as he does so. He then proceeds to place the "cigar" in the mouth of the character on the receiving end of the Deanimation and light the fuse, asking, "Care for a smoke, uh?" Then, as the burning fuse shortens, he walks away from the defeated foe with his hands behind his back and nonchalantly whistles until his opponent's whole head explodes, fried brain matter flies everywhere, and the loser falls to the ground dead in a pool of their own blood. Must be performed at sweep distance.
=====Pacifist Act=====
*On With the Show: Dugs quickly changes into a yellow suit and hat with a blue shirt underneath, then does a "This is It"-style song and dance number, then the other MGW poster children: Thomas Montague, Roy Hannibal, Pua Kameāloha, Jonathan Murdoch, Russell Redfire (who looks like a South Park Canadian here), Valkyrie, J-Pop Hogo-sha, Bobby Falkner, Xiaodan von Brandt, Steel Daniel, and Thor, all dressed up in the same outfit, join him on stage and sing along with him. Afterwards, all the poster children, Dugs included, bow as roses are thrown on stage. Must be performed at jump distance.

* Burning: Please, I don't wanna get the shit BBQ-ed outta me!
* Shocked: Geez, my electric bill's goin' right through the roof, ain't it?
* Grossed Out: Remind me never to let Elmo poison my carrots next time.
* Frozen: Rrrrrrr... I knew I shoulda stayed indoors...
* Enraged: Oh, you've really done it now, buddy!
* Slowed: Owwww... Did my anvil trick backfire on my ass or somethin'?
* Confused: I think I speed-dashed a little too fast...
* In Love: Ahhhhhh... ♥ It feels like Lora kissed me just now.

==Storyline==
===Drawn to Murder===
====Prologue====
Dugs Lepus rose to cartoon stardom and was a total hit with the kids in the 1940s thanks to his constant use of tricks and traps to defeat his enemies for comedic purposes, and had enjoyed that fame since then. He never stopped delighting the very young with his antics, until, unfortunately, in 1964, in one of the earliest cases of children's cartoon controversy, an elaborate trap he set up for his constant pursuer, Elmo Duff, was deemed too violent and gory for young eyes to watch, and as a result, the poor fucker's show was taken off the air for good. Then, one day, Dugs received some horrible news of a threat to the very ink of cartoon existence, known as "the Nothingness," which plans to erase cartoonkind from existence permanently, and so our bunny hero set off on a quest to put an end to that threat before it's too late.
