Special Animation Notes:
Spacegodzilla's Shoulder Crystals, head crest and Crystal Fortress is constantly glowing and pulsating with energy with the occasional bolt of energy flying from the fortress into his shoulder to give him power. Like his genetic "father" the clone of Godzilla has his spikes usually glow and pulse along with his crest and shoulders before using his breath weapon. Since NRS really loves using particle effects especially for fighters who have a battle aura this would be a great challenge for them but none the less a great chance to show off what they can really do as his it's not just Spacegodzilla but also his fortress that glows. Imagine a forest of crystals as tall as buildings making a battle ground on Earth look like it takes place on an alien world.
Not to mention the "fog" on the ground. It'd be hard to pull off but amazing none the less if they did it.
His flying/crystal form has some cool morphing when he transforms back and forth between them. In his crystal form his spikes and shoulder crystals grow tenfold and his legs are either tucks away, or shrink or mutate into crystals.
His Corona Beam is very hard to pull off in 3D. In the film he uses his psychic powers to bend and twist it so it looks like it has a mind of it's own. In game it could act as a "lock on" attack and twist around buildings to hit an enemy monster trying to take cover. But Simon Strange, who worked on the Atari games, explained the reason why they always had his Corona Beam move in a stirght line instead of twisting around. In a 3D environment it kept colliding with buildings or other stuff. In a 2D environment that wouldn't be as much of a problem.
Special Gameplay Notes:
Spacegodzilla is a powerful, smart but also arrogant, overconfident, sadistic, power hungry asshole with a god complex. So I think his "walking" animation should have him floating a few inches above the ground much like Black Adam or Superman in Injustice. He didn't always do this in the film, in fact he stayed mostly on the ground but may take on the character is that in game makes it more sense that he'd float almost all the time and also because it'd give more of a sense of his power.
Just like in the Atari games Spacegodzilla lifts a building or other object to throw at an enemy not with his hands but his mind.
Crystal Fortress I'm still not sure if it should just already be on the map when you choose him or you have to summon it. I can't make up my mind, it's an idea that need more thought to be put in since it'd be very easy to fuck it up.
Intro: Spacegodzilla flies into the battlefield as his Crystal Form and slams down into the battle ground, seeding the area with his forest of crystals.
Fighting Style: Spacegodzilla, being a psychic relies naturally more on his mind then his body to fight. Make no mistake, he is still a clone of Godzilla and thus still physically powerful. Thus he would be a keepaway/zoner. His basic attacks would be powerful but slow and sloppy due to being a creature who prefers fighting long range then up close.
Special Attacks/Powers:
Crystal Energy Transfer: As long as Spacegodzilla is near his crystals or they are intact they refill his energy bar much faster.
Shoulder Rush: Spacegodzilla flies forward, slamming his shoulder into the enemy. Knocking them flat on their ass.
Crystal Missiles: Spacegodzilla rips out crystals from the ground and launches them at the enemy, causing massive explosions.
Bolt Stab: Red bolts of energy fly out of Spacegodzilla's crystal shoulders and stab into the enemies foot, stunning them.
Double kick: Spacegodzilla floats up in the air higher, wraps his tail around the opponents neck and then kicks the foe in the stomach with both feet.
Crystal Form: Spacegodzilla morphs into his flying form allowing him to fly above the enemy and open up a new set of powers and attacks for him. Like a change in stance. *need more work on what said powers would be for the flying form*
Corona Beam: His trademark beam stabs into the enemy before exploding, twisting and twirling before it hits. EX version will allow you to aim at the feet causing the enemy to slow down for a few second or aim up into their eyes to stun them.
Gravity Tornado: Green energy lashes out from his shoulder crystals allowing him to throw his foe.
Tail Stab: One of Spacegodzilla's rare physical attacks and a strong one, he stabs the enemy in the gut with the spike on his tail, lifting them up with his tail alone till they are mere inches from his face. Red alien energy travels across his tail into the enemy, zapping them and then he flings them away with a flick of his tail.
Zap Slap: Spacegodzilla charges his body red alien energy and every punch/slap zaps the enemy with alien energy. Only lasts for a few seconds and is meant as a way to keep someone away.
Reflective Shield: Spacegodzilla can deflect the projectiles. EX version can be used to put a protective shield around Spacegodzilla's crystals.
Super: Spacegodzilla blinds the enemy with a blast of his Corona Beams in the eyes, before the enemy's sight returns crystals are launched as missiles at them. While they are still recovering Spacegodzilla turns into his crystal form and flies into space using his EMP waves to makes a space station fall out of orbit and hit the target. Then Spacegodzilla turns into a bright ball of light like his intro, flying back down to Earth and crashes dive-bombs into the enemy, causing more crystals to grow out of the ground and trapping the enemy inside on of the crystals. As a final blow Spacegodzilla's crystal absorbs the enemies health and energy and feeds it to Spacegodzilla before the crystal shatters in a million pieces like glass, freeing the enemy.
Win pose: Spacegodzilla uses his psychic powers to lift the comatose enemy and put them in a "cage" made out of crystal. Then the entire crystal forest glows and pules as bolts of energy fly into Spacegodzilla as he glows with a lighting strike in the background. He then twirls in mid air and then flies off like in his Godzilla: Unleashed win pose.
Some videos to give you guys an idea of what I am even rambling about.
