Dinkle's Fun Tournament - The Thrilling Redo

Roundabout

0: Dinkle

Hi guys! You might be seeing Dinkle, but it's me speaking! You may be wondering what's going on!

Dinkle Tournament is being totally overhauled. Seven out of the eight characters from the original tournament have been replaced with new ones I'm much more willing to go the distance with, and tracks/art will be of way higher quality. 

This isn't to say this project is gonna be a huge production or anything - I'm specifically keeping things "low ambition", in the hopes that I'll actually *finish* the project. Most matches will lack unique art and have just one phase, for instance. In addition, round 1 hype tracks will serve to introduce the character, and they'll be short! Think 1 minute at the shortest, 2 minutes at the very longest.

I've got a good deal of content already in the wings, and I think it's really my strongest work yet. I'm super excited to share it with you! Reveals and matches will begin after a few more pieces of content are in place. Okay, bye! : )

[LR1M1 BOSS BATTLE] King of the Castle

(Art by @babybowser101)

[ imagine an ego immune system. an apparatus that subsumes anything that threatens it, breaks down and destroys it. ]

[ the two which the audience did not favor have been trapped there for quite some time. you might not recognize them anymore. they worked together, once. begrudgingly. but as they began to deteriorate, notions of a greater good to work towards were left by the wayside. it's anyone's guess if this is just a result of months spent in isolation and terror, or if the location they've found themselves in deliberately influences them to be at odds in order to pick them off more efficiently. divide and conquer, so to speak. ]

[ hell round approaches. in this match, the audience is powerless to influence the results. the two will meet for a final time, and only one will walk away. ]

[ only one will escape. ]
