I've done something I promised myself never to do, which was to not put all my energy and focus into a character. Life is getting in the way of that. Garrus is a character that's so difficult, that I can't make him with everything happening right now. It's like a fat little kid just kicked me in the balls because I'm not giving it my full attention while I'm trying to build something insanely complex. So Garrus has to be put to the side until there aren't any distractions. It sucks but there it is.
I still want to at least release one character this year, so I'm still in it. It just won't be Garrus. I want to get it at least 60% before I reveal who it is. Right now it's at around 15%. I think people will be happier with this character than Garrus anyway, since most people kept saying, "I don't know who this Garrus is, but he looks cool," while this new character was requested to me a number of times already. In the end I kept gravitating toward this character just because this one is really simple to make. And despite all the stuff happening in my life right now, in the end, I like it. I like making characters and yea, I'm good at it. I have a few people that hate my stuff. But most people either don't mind or can enjoy them. A few love even love them.
My main gripe about releasing this character before Garrus or another girl character is simply the placement of on the roster. It just looks off. Then again, I COULD have this character debuted in another Mugen tutorial video and then keep it as a secret character. That'd be cool considering the rules I have for myself as a Mugen character creator. It'd be a loophole basically. If you don't already know, my rules are, one girl per boy, and no double dipping into the same franchise. I've finally gotten rid of the double dipping rule cuz I'm running out of girls though.
