christ the redeemer statue if he was a mario kart character

In Mario Kart 8/Deluxe, the motion of each character is governed by four independent systems: -animation (which action the character is currently performing, e.g. sitting in the seat, throwing an item, posing after a stunt, etc. In older Mario Kart games, this was the only factor) -head tracking (the character's head turns to look at other drivers and items as they pass by) -facial expressions (the character's face changes to show their current mood, e.g. happy after winning or in pain after being hit) -vehicle motion counterbalance (the character subtly shifts in the seat in accordance with the vehicle's movement by bending limbs or changing posture. Hair and other freely moving character parts also fall under this system)

To demonstrate that these systems are actually completely independent of each other, it is possible to turn one of them off and see that the other ones are still being applied to the character. In the footage, Daisy's animations are turned off, leaving her stuck in a T-pose. However, she still looks around, changes expressions, and even bends her arms and legs to balance the bike's movement.

Earlier in the Rivals of Aether Steam Workshop,

I released a few kinda cool things.

The first one is a reworked, definitive edition of Troops, my second mod ever made for RoA. I had made him still within the workshop's first few months, all the way back in 2019. However, unlike Bluey Azure, I had mostly left him to the wayside since then. That changed now, though.

He sports a few new moves that make better use of his hammer and Paratroopa nature, including a move where he becomes none other than the dreaded Spiny Shell. Plus, he has a cool new backward cap now.

Troops is actually one of my older original characters(despite not being really original lol), nearly as old as Bluey himself, so I'm glad to finally be giving the justice I should've given him before.

But that's not all...

The other release was Ms. Game & Watch, a new character made as an alternative, more Rivals-pilled take on Mr. Game & Watch from Smash Bros. Her design is based off the lady from Oil Panic.

She follows the same general idea as Mr.G&W - a fighter that uses many wacky moves based on Game & Watch games, and even borrows a couple things of his, but she's largely her own character, and the things she did borrow have unique spins on them.

And that was my yearly quota for Rivals! Do check out their release trailer, and if you have the game and like the Workshop, do subscribe to them and check them out. I would greatly appreciate that.

Check the rest of my RoA mods in this collection too!

A screenshot found in the data of Super Smash Bros. Brawl which seems to depict an unused scene from the Subspace Emissary mode. The scene appears unfinished, notably due to a lack of shadows and Kirby’s irregular mouth.

been wanting to post my art here for a while so here's a semi-random assortment of doodles i did a while ago of things i made, things i like, and several inside jokes and running gags that are pretty much incomprehensible for anyone who hasn't followed me on twitter for the past half-decade
