Description Over some months midway through the year I have been practicing and studying various character designs from video games. Tends to be a somewhat enlightening experience, especially with characters from fighting games.

Seeing as how I'd like to get everything done in 2010 submitted within that year, here we go.

----------------------

Ever saw a character that was actually rather disturbing to look at yet was kinda... hot? That's this character.

So there is a game for the Sega Genesis called Slaughter Sport - it's probably on the top 10 list of worst fighting games. It's set on some sort of planet known for brutal gladiatorial arenas owned by a REALLY really Fat mutant guy - kinda like Jabba the Hutt in a diaper...I'm serious.

The idea was cool, you have a bunch of really unlikeable dregs of the galaxy who fight for money or death. Some characters were actually really unique looking and creative actually. Including this character.

Now this is more of a two for one special, Spidra and Webra, for some reason the "Alt" color of a character was a new character altogether, so we have a dark blue black one, Spidra and the gold one Webra.

Spidra apparently was married to another combatant, a mutant with no lower legs named Stumpy, and is shy enough to cover herself when exposed in the shower (I swear I'm NOT making this up)

Webra on the otherhand eats her own children because shes better than them. (I'm not kidding, these are real Bios).

The design and concept is great, it's not conventional so it just hits you weird right off. But the sex appeal and obvious sense of "THIS WILL MOST LIKELY EAT YOU RUN AWAY" keeps luring you in even in a game with such great... graphics.

The lack of arms is a bit to get used to, especially with a pair of human legs but again - probably the most interesting looking character in the game. Ready to be reimaged.

She's an interesting character. Creepy but interesting. There is a full sprite rip of her character at Spriter's Resource:

It's a shame she was only featured in such a forgettable game.

Thanks!

Yeah this game was off all things probably one of the shittiest games I've ever had the pleasure of playing as far as fighting games go. The concept was... well, not all that interesting and really the only compelling design for a character was Spidra and Webra- prolly due to the sexy yet disturbing nature of her.

But yeah as far as quality I think this game sinks lower than Rise of the Robots and Tattoo Assassins... that's an achievement.

Nice picture, but GOD that game looks awful! From what I saw of it, all you do is hop around like Chinese vampires and kick each other in the face, and the loser inexplicably gets eaten by an aligator-shark thing swimming in the floor.

Oh yeah, and the fighters apparently hold their money in a "purse", lol.

It looks so bad it's funny, the way the character's jump is hilarious. Also, if you really wanna scrape the bottom of crap barrel, try doing some artwork of Kasumi Ninja and Way of the Warrior on 3DO. Way of the Warrior is possibly the most unintentionally hilarious game ever concieved by man, it's so horrible it's funny.

With the guy and the kilt and his crotch blaster? Oh yes

I believe his name is Shamus. And yes, Kasumi Ninja is that infamous Mortal Kombat clone for Jaguar with the crotch fire.

Hmmm I know what RedWingsDragon means. Also thanks for the details I might look into this game sometime.

You should, it's bizarre - but at the same time if it wasn't so horrid it might have had some sort of potential

Definitely just worth looking at for it's obscurity.
