Heres an idea I had for a beatemup along the lines of battle toads, comix zone, and aliens v predator. The main character is cardinal, a human/alien hybrid with superhuman powers who doesn't believe in wearing pants.  The controls would be something like this Standard Attack Special Attack Shield Jump |

That guy looks like a red version of Captain Manhattan from Watchmen. But anyways it's some pretty good sprite work.

looks rad. i love the alien opponents. good design. unfortunately, the Cardinal does nothing for me. His design is just to generic. Nothing that would stick in my mind. Also, the design should explain the character's name. I really don't see how a naked red guy is a cardinal unless the entry requirements of the Catholic church have been changed somewhat.
love the animations. one one problem with the shooting one. I think the smoke bbubles should follow the bullet a bit earlier. Just my 2 cents.
all in all looks real good.
ps. how about some crystal spikes growing out of his shoulders and back as a design for a powered up version.
pps. how about giving him some cracks and veins like he is made up of magma and lava and stuff?

I kind of have to agree with the genericicity of the design. The redness and black around the eyes does have some ties to the bird, but aside from that he's just a naked red buff dude. Maybe a crest or something, or have the blackness on his face encompass his mouth as well (as it does in the bird). Some distinguishing features besides the crystal in his chest, you know? Like...More crystals...in his not-chest...or something.

I said it first!! me me me. CRYSTALS In not-his-chest!! and what about a laurel wreath on his head. like Caesar? he would look like Caesar if he had an olive crown. that would be rad. |

Looking at it, I think a bunch of feathers in a head-dress or something could really help him look more like a cardinal. (Assuming you're referring to the bird.) The darker accents do help a lot.
And nice job on the lightning. Looks positively electrifying.

I dont want to be too tied down by what an actual cardinal looks like, im more interested in the color and the religious connotations. Anyways i was thinking of creating an alien bird that is referred to as a cardinal for its red and black coloring... |
