#Unarmed Style/Hand to Hand Fighting Style?

Asked this one over in Steam, but I figure here is far more active. Since there is animation for punches and such, is there any shot at some martial arts goodness for our leading ladies? Uppercuts and roundhouse kicks seem just about on brand for a 'secret' protector within the harem and all that, haha. Along with the jiggle and general vibe, it has shades of reminding me of the good ol' DoA fighting game days.

Personally, I'd love to see some unarmed/fistcuffs/katars/flying kick options for style points.

And maybe some shields that are more buckler sized or clearly cosmetic with form over function.

Semi related, what about special moves for shield users, such as a battering ram or flinging it Captain America style?


One more while I'm thinking about it. Since the game is a fusion of genres with low tech and magic alike, throwing weapons may be interesting.

Probably more along the lines of shuriken or a brace of daggers since they'll be spammed constantly and you don't want to worry about ammunition.

ponders ...Or maybe you do, giving up a precious item slot. Consumable projectile, like a big damage javelin/axe/boomerang, or stuff like firebombs, perhaps?

Alternatively, chucking an axe could be a special move with some oomph.

Also thinking about some shield special attacks

#

Throwing weapons might be interesting but it might get a bit tricky in our loot system as weapons not shown around, only a loot dot appears, so thrown weapons need to disappear or turn to loot asap and might result in glitches a lot. That takes a bit consideration

Oh, small daggers hmm

might be i will note that

How about cesti? Wield them as weapons, but they have no visuals and it's just the girls throwing punches and kicks.

Ja. Or fistwraps, or just fancy oversized bracers, a bunch of gaudy rings. Really, I'll take any excuse to make that style a thing, haha.

Although for it to really emulate DOA we'd need a way to crank the jiggle physics up to eleven.

Another idea would be maybe gaining the oddly long clawed fingers from the Beast Master gal?

Some sort of skill tree that powers up your unarmed melee based off whatever her unlocks/story/talent pool does?
