Streak

Streak is a platform fighter formerly developed by Pyro Enterprises as both a love letter to games in the genre, including Super Smash Bros. and Rivals of Aether, as well as classic platforming series Mega Man. It is now being developed by Kutenaiabi. The game is being released on both the Pyrohedron, the Midas and the Pharo, with cross-platform gameplay said to be in the works.
The game is said to based around having an "unprecedented level of character customization", with players able to customize characters and their abilities at a core level.
==Gameplay==
Gameplay in Streak is similar to most platform fighters- players battle across a 2D stage by running and jumping as well as utilizing various attacks and special abilities. Unlike most platform fighters, the health of players is not tracked by percentage, but by an armor-like system referred to as the Health Tri. The Health Tri is a triangle-shaped meter that acts similarly to a traditional health bar, but every time it is emptied, it instantly fills and transitions from its starting blue color and fades closer to red. Every time the Health Tri is reset, the player will suffer more knockback from attacks, changing from essentially no knockback on the first Tri to extremely high knockback on the ninth or tenth Tri. Each Tri consists of 35 HP.
Much like Smash Bros., death occurs when a player is launched off the stage via knockback. Upon respawning, the player is set back to their first Tri. This will also deduct a point or stock in Time/Life matches.
===Streak===
The Streak is a central gameplay mechanic- it acts as both the player's combo meter and a traditional "super meter". As players build combos, their Streak rises depending on the number of hits they manage to make, with the total being added to the player's SP after the combo finally ends by taking damage. If a player dies with a running Streak, the Streak is erased rather than being tallied. Long enough Streaks in very close succession may trigger multipliers, which increase the SP earned after the Streak ends.
After SP is tallied into the player's total, the player is able to spend it mid-match on various rewards, such as healing, offensive or defensive items, stat boosts, or powerful attack abilities known as Streak Enders. The player selects a reward to spend SP on via the Pyrohedron or Midas's scroll wheels, then presses both bumper buttons to spend SP and purchase the selected item or buff.

==Modes==
===Versus===
====Battle====
A standard multiplayer battle inspired by Smash Bros. Choose your characters, set your rules, pick a stage, and get to fighting!
===Solo===
====Story Mode: Synthesis====
A story mode starring Strika as she ventures across the world to determine why Synths are being corrupted by a mysterious virus, and hopefully save them from it. Synthesis is similar to a fusion between classic Mega Man games and Subspace Emmisary from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, having the player as Strika navigate large levels to reach the boss at the end.
Within each stage are several varieties of enemies, which do not make appearances in the main Battle modes and are primarily fought in Synthesis itself. If killed by Strika's Neutral Power, Analyzer Shot, each enemy changes one of Strika's attack moves to a unique attack or grants her passive perks, slowly customizing her over the course of the level.
Boss characters are one of the primary playable characters save Strika. Though they do use default customization options otherwise, these characters are customized to have elemental weaknesses and resistances that are normally not applied in the base game, making them act more like traditional Mega Man bosses.
===Customization===
====Character Editor====
One of the most in-depth modes in Streak, the Character Editor allows players to save up to 10 customized variants of each character and utilize them in combat. Players are given a set amount of currency known as XP, which they can spend on various enhancements to the character in order to change up various aspects of their attacks and abilities. In contrast, players may weaken some aspects of the character in order to gain extra XP, which can be spent to further enhance other aspects.
The customizable aspects of characters and their moves are as follows:

====Stage Creator====
A stage creation engine, the Stage Creator acts as a throwback to the stage creator of Brawl by working as a block-based system similar to that of the Wii U title Super Mario Maker. Players are able to use a variety of tools to create stages on which to battle.
The available tools for stage creation are:
*TBA
Stages can be shared online, but are reviewed by moderators who are asked to playtest the stages before releasing them to the public. These moderators help divide the stages into two groups:
*Tournament Stages: These stages are deemed "tournament-legal" by moderators and are put in the rotation for Online Battles.
*Widespread Stages: Stages not deemed tournament-legal are marked as Widespread and not put into Online Battle rotation. These stages can still be downloaded off the Internet for use, but are only available in local battles or Friend Battles.
====Palette Editor====
Using simple tools, players can create a custom palette for their favorite fighter and take it into battle! Custom palettes can be shared online for other players to download.
==Characters==
Character 	Information
/Strika/The Mechanical Mechanic 	
<tabber>
/Denkuro/The Wrathful Thunderedge	
<tabber>
Description=Denkuro is a denizen of the eastern city of Shiansu, having spent many of his days training to become a master of the ancient art of ninjitsu. Suffering many days of hardship under his old master, Kemuri, Denkuro was eventually forced to become a Synth due to the sheer amount of wear and tear his body had suffered- he had literally been worked to the bone. Unforunately, Kemuri saw this as an insult to his teachings; he was using the advantage of technology to achieve something his old body was incapable of, and as such, not worthy of learning under him. Denkuro left to train his new Synth body in this martial art on his own... Until he became corrupted by the Virus, making him a wrathful, enigmatic entity fueled by only his hatred for those who had wronged him in the past.|-|Playstyle=Denkuro is inspired by sleek and fast characters from other fighting games, making him an agile combatant who leaps in and out of the fray constantly. Many of his movement options provide him with immunity frames, making him very approach-oriented and allowing him to cover large portions of the stage freely. His attacks strike quickly and in rapid succession, leading to a very combo-oriented fighting style, but he's not very strong. He's also a lightweight individual, and takes plenty of knockback.|-|Abilities=
*Neutral Ability: Plasma Needles
*Side Ability: Ninjitsu Dash
*Up Ability: Glide
*Down Ability: Plasmstar
/Ros/The Fiery Starburst 	
<tabber>
Description=Ros DeCroft was a famous actress native to the country of Floranum, specializing in romance and comedy films. Ros was a world-beloved woman, famous for her kindness, compassion, and general innocent demeanor. Her career was nearly cut short in an almost fatal car crash, but she rebounded after being chosen to become a Synth, actually using her fanbase and inspiring attitude to increase public acceptance of Synths. Unfortunately, Ros was unable to avoid infection by the Virus, and her unending love turned to lust as she became a haughty seductress, bent on twisting the world to her whim.|-|Playstyle=Ros is comparable to Fox from the Smash Bros. series, in that she is a primarily ranged combatatnt with high agility. She is able to rush from place to place in a flaming dash of energy, while slowly pelting her foes with projectiles to rack up damage very quickly. She's fragile, meaning she can take plenty of damage quickly, but her agility and stylishness help her stay out of direct combat.|-|Abilities=
*Neutral Ability: Cinder Kiss
*Side Ability: Phoenix Rush
*Up Ability: Phoenix Charge
*Down Ability: Shine
/Skerpia/The Dancing Sandstorm 	
<tabber>
Description=Skerpia Alquala was formerly a famed biologist in the desert city of La'Neqa, becoming a Synth in order to push herself into more and more hazardous experiments that pushed the brink of her field further and further. The hatred she got from those against Synths was nothing to her, at least compared to the fame she garnered and the joy she gained from her work. That is... until the stress began getting to her. It wore down at her more and more, until she began to feel like it would kill her entirely... Then, she was infected by the Virus, preying on her desire to de-stress and relax and changing her from a proud biologist to a free-spirited dancer, with plans to use her enhanced abilities to swallow the city and create a new, stress-free environment for herself.|-|Playstyle=Skerpia is based around stage control, being able to effectively strike in two places simultaneously thanks to her signature ability Scorpio Drone. The drone is one of the most powerful attacks in the game, and while it can stay at her side to boost her own power, it is best utilized as a method to section off areas of the stage as hazards. Without the drone, however, Skerpia's best attribute is her recover, as her speed, weight, and offensive power all tend to suffer a little bit. Expert use of the drone and her other abilities is crucial for survival and victory.|-|Abilities=
*Neutral Ability: Scorpio Drone
*Side Ability: Tri Strike
*Up Ability: Lunging Stinger
*Down Ability: Sandtrap
/Argos/ The Vibrant Vandal 	
<tabber>
Description=
Argos-not his real name-was a member of a group of graffiti artists known for their rather eclectic membership; Argos himself was a rather recent member, but was reasonably well known for his own surprisingly articulate views, despite his minor self-esteem issues. During a showcase, an accident with the scaffolding in Argos being terribly crippled and forcing him to undergo the Syntheization process. He continued his work, using his art to express the Synths plight, but the virus turned his self-esteem issues into a violent loathing and envy of any other work of art. Now using incredibly toxic chemicals as paint to cover up any work that isn’t his, most of the citizens of his home city have fled to avoid his ‘poisonous art’.
/Thoreau/ The Warping Wrestler 	
<tabber>
Description=
Thoreau Davids (temp) was an up and coming wrestler, whose determination and friendly personality endeared him to the crowd, alongside his desire to provide for his family. Unfortunately for him, an accident during his training forced him to undergo the Syntheization process if he wanted to ever walk again, and was banned from official tourneys due to this. Undeterred, he began throwing the weight of his considerable fanbase behind defending Synths and creating a new, Synth Wrestling League. Then the virus struck. The Synth Wrestling League became a glorified bloodshow where Synths violently maim humans, and Thoreau became obsessed with getting as rich as he could simply for the sake of it.
/Ingauss/ The Blinding Conqueror 	
<tabber>
Description=
Thomas Ingauss, an experienced police officer who, during a chase, was caught in a rather painful accident. It would have left him crippled for life if it weren’t for his conversion into a Synth. Not caring how critics of Synths saw him yet dead set on proving himself, Ingauss continued his police work, becoming a hero to some Synths for him simply not giving his critics the time of day. However, when the virus came along, it transformed him into a violent warmonger that’s trying to conquer as much as he can just to feed his own ego, under the ruse of ‘protection’.
/Syra/ The All-Consuming Tide 	
<tabber>
Description=
Syra Maloren, the teenage daughter of two marine biologists who dreamed of following in her parents footsteps. Fresh into college, she was determined to reach her goals. However, her utter determination turned on her, overworking and starving herself to keep up. This forced her to undergo the Syntheization process, but she remained determined. In fact, she used her Synth body to assist her parents in their research as an intern, even if she did have some issues with eating a lot...then, however, the virus came along. Everyone escaped, thankfully, but what they said painted a dark picture...a figure, cloaked entirely in black water, whispering one word over and over. “Hungry…”
/Aurilynn/ The Hollow Treasurer 	
<tabber>
Description=Aurilynn Marilis was the daughter of an incredibly rich family. Thankfully for her, her family was very kind to her, though she was incredibly spoiled. Unfortunately, she was caught in an accident with her mother and father; the details are unknown, but her parents insisted that she be operated on first. Aurilynn survived by being turned into a Synth. Her parents didn’t. This left the eight year old Aurilynn alone in the world; her family, while truly sad, couldn’t care for her due to increasingly violent anti-Synth protests. All that she had left was her home, and a growing emptiness inside. Then the Virus came and infected her, her own emptiness growing to an uncontrollable amount. She’s isolated herself in her family manor, wreaking havoc on the world outside...with no hint of emotion.|-|Playstyle|-|Abilities|-|Alternate Palettes
