Alright my weekend was kinda rough for my updates. I was out of town visiting my parents. Then I come back to a Dallas that was hit with a hard hitting Thunderstorm that took power out for a lot of residents. I got my power back recently so I'll try to grind and get some stuff out for y'all. I should finish this after sleep.


I don't really have any ideas for squashing attacks and I wanna avoid what has been done. But if y'all have good ideas that I may have not considered it maybe helpful to say them so I can know if they are desired.

Not to sound like a broken record but some sort of butt crush grinding effect hasn’t been done yet. Something that could be done horizontally on the ground from one end of the stage to the other, or even a vertical wall grind into an off screen flip into belly crush. Going further, an idea for a super move could literally be a grind move spanning all 4 corners of the stage in a square motion that ends in Izuna drop, butt/belly crush style. I’m thinking you could use Maki’s throw super from Capcom vs SNK 2 as an inspiration, since she uses ninja style too

I’m racking my brain for ideas you haven’t done yet and all I can think right now is that, to my knowledge, you haven’t yet utilized squash moves that use the side walls of the stage for crushing, or actively sliding on/grinding opponents against flat surfaces.

Actually Jumbo has a move that crushes against the side and Jumba is planned to have the grinding aspect added to her.

I did some thinking and I'm not too sure what ideas to give you since Jumba is just such a fairly designed character. But here are some ideas I guess: 1: Jumba runs and purposly falls over her opponent with her ninja speed. 2: Jumba counters her foe by teleporting away and sitting on them from behind. 3: Jumba charges up and does a high speed squash on the opponent against the wall. 4: Jumba uses her trunk to smack her foe in the air and teleports to smash down with her belly. 5: Jumba uses her legs to flip her opponent down three times and finally lands on them.

I've always wanted to see a somewhat sadistic butt crush. As an example, victim could be hit with a hard attack bounces off the wall and lands in front of the crusher, then the crusher would slowly walk over to them, position themselves over them so that the crush would be face to crotch and then just drops standing banzai drop style. If the move were to KO they just stay there, if it doesn't then do a grind to it. Don't know if this fits Jumba but that's my 2 cents.

Hmmm I think all surfaces have been used except for the actual screen and since the background isn’t always a wall in every stage, it’d be the more appropriate next choice. Jumba could be all ninja like using vanish but she’d do so above the screen and swing down doing a belly flop against the screen. Not much would happen if it misses but if the opponent is caught between, they’re squashed and the force of the slam leaves the screen cracked until they slide off. Could also do a little addition whereof it KOs, the opponent is actually smashed through the screen and slides off screen but may be a bit hard to animate the glass and stuff.

You could try a the “pillbug” or armadillo direction. Jumba can grab the opponent up, curl around them in a tight squeeze and then do a rolling bounce that squashes them inside. Like an egg in a mit. Though this would be hard to make sense out of when done to big characters. Also, you can have her follow up her Stomp with successive stomps that do lower and lower damage up to a certain amount of times that’d fit with her grind mechanic.

I feel like Jumbo’s super might be a variation of this.
