I've had this idea of a Rhythm Heaven for awhile but it wasn't until recently that a concept came to mind that my meager skills could finish in the foreseeable future.
'Rhythm Heaven'Rhythm Heaven as a series represented in Smash Bros. by a 2D amalgamation character that encompasses themes of the games, keeping the rhythm and timing your buttons.
Essentially 'Rhythm Heaven' will be a character that changes to move, perform attacks, specials, etc. In addition, some timed button presses will be incorporated into some attacks where hitting the rhythm will benefit the player.
I plan to bring this project to vBrawl, EX and Project M, although I'll need help on the latter since I dunno how PSA in P:M works.
So how will Rhythm Heaven work? Simple! With each attack, RH will change briefly to perform it before returning to neutral. The Chorus Kids serve as the ones doing the basic movements, but then suddenly...
That's essentially how RH attacks, changing 'character' to 'character'. But don't forget your rhythm! If you don't time your buttons well enough...
The Neutral A combo won't do as much damage or knockback. Visual cues on the character will let you know when you've flubbed it up.
More details to be filled out soon!
