RUMBLERS are parody characters that are available exclusively on Kickstarter. We'd love to get your ideas for what sort of parody character or mash-up (Yanni + Conan the Barbarian = Golden Sax?!) you'd love see appear in our next Kickstarter game, "Pocket N30N City RUMBLE."
Note: Though Fifi Omegazoid (Metroid), MechaMan (Megaman), Simone Belondo (Castlevania), and Smith & Weston (Contra) are homages to classic videogames, we are not opposed to movies from the 80s and early-mid 90s. For instance, we could have a character based on Robocop called "The Law Gnome: Part Gnome. Part Gardener. All cop." And let's not forget Saturday Morning Cartoons from those eras (Thundercats, Robotech, Martial Lonestar, etc)! The possibilities are limitless!

While I am thinking about it, I would like to see something based on Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China. Also, Rick from Splatterhouse is a must! More to come...

If we can go outside videogaming i'd like to see marty mc fly and doc with a de loran from BACK to the Future (his power involving time travel of course ) Another interesting idea: a parody of kid icarus

@robert: Any way of mashing up Jack Burton with Rick from Splatter House? What do ya think? Could be amazing! lance: Love 'em both, but I'm definitely leaning toward Kid Icarus... love those games. Would he be El Gigolo's arch rival, I wonder?

I don't know about that mash-up. That's an odd mix, but if you think of something cool I will keep an open mind. If I get some free time I might sketch some things and post them.

It could be interesting if Jack Burton got the Terror Mask. Maybe even turn the Terror Mask into a cursed Chinese opera mask. It turns Jack into a hulking kung-fu monster wielding a submachine gun and a mullet.

Now you're speaking my language! You'd be surprised at some of the character-building ingredients I used for the concepts I sent to Rudy. I actually wrote them all out for Lance a while back. Here they are:
Ash = Cody (Final Fight) + Axel (SoR) Takeo = Kunio-Kun character + Kuwabara (Yu Yu) Beatman = Jump Man (Mario) + Little Mac Blok'Em = Rock Em Sock Em Robot Canada Jack = Sasquatch + Brawny Man Chef Grenouille = Battletoads Cobra Nash: Snake Pliskin + Charlie from SF El Gigolo is El Gigolo because El Gigolo is who El Gigolo is. Kiefer = Lost Boys Moody Ruby = Rubik's Cube Nightclub Ninja = Rave girl + Ninja Rasputin = if Disney made a movie about him Ronny Ronin = cowboy + samurai + demon Sphinx = Darkstalkers-type character Toro = Bowser + Vega U-DO = Voodoo chick + Rap Video Girl Val Kyrie - Valkyrie + Sorority Girl Vassal = Shantae Wolfenstein = Werewolf + Frankenstein Amb3r and Tobarius = Secret of Evermore + Mad Max Don = not my character so I have no idea! Fubar = Necro + Doctrine Dark (both from SF EX 2) Ihairara - Sagat + Maori fighter Lawk & Noki = Link + Apollo from Ace Attorney Louie the Orangutang = Louie (Jungle Book) + Funky Kong Mikiri - Makota + Ken (both from Street Fighter 3) Orion = Prince (Space Dandy) + 80s hair metal band mutant guy Pong = Angry Videogame Nerd Rebma = Dead or Alive, from what I'm told, haha ReNaeNae = reverse Black Dynamite Squirrel Boy = real life cameo by an awesome guy who is no longer with us... Vic Solid = Solid Snake + Maoi head shooting selfie projectile. Dafuq? haha Vlad the Impaler = Dracula got resurrected in a junkyard and went YOLO with it. Davy Wagnarok = Me! Wildest Redux = Rudy! Fifi Omegazoid = Samus Aran Judy Haze = Terry Bogard + Mai (both from Fatal Fury) + Blaze (SoR) Dues Ex-Mayor = steampunk Haggar Ash-35 = Streets of Rage clone robots

Excellent! It looks like I guessed correctly on most of those. A few of them make more sense now that I know the references.
I was thinking that a character inspired by Kung Fury would be appropriate, especially since Rudy worked on that project.

KUNG FURY would be an awesome idea!!!

I'd so be down with have a cameo of that character but there are conflicting interests involved. The studio that Rudy works for have all of their eggs in the Kung Fury basket, and we don't want to step on their toes by going to David about this. But trust me, Rudy and I had this talk when he was working on the film, and we'd love to see it happen!

Totally. If not specifically use Kung Fury, maybe a fighter that is an homage to him? What if we made it look like David Hasselhoff in the True Survivor music video? Just a thought.

that's a nice workaround but i think davy and rudy should properly ask to avoid any problems... if they say no to the "licensed character" i think an homage with a david hasselhoff wannabe called "true survivor" could work

hi dave, i think Hitler could be in the game? his attacks are over powered and his final smash should be 9/11

i dont think will be a good character for this game, however i do believe some more video game characters shall do. such as the dragons from bubble bobble, where the look like godzilla. that be cool. also i think lego should be in the game, just like the reduix cude and the robot was
