![]() ![]() Ninja animation skip: there's normally an animation that plays during the transformation to ninja form, but it can be skipped by crouching. ![]() Fast horizontal shooting: in mid-air, pressing B and up on the same frame, then releasing up the frame after, results in the shot being fired a few frames more quickly. Crouch cancelling: when Maui fires, it's possible to crouch and uncrouch to save animation frames and allow for faster re-firing. Neutral jump acceleration manipulation: by initiation a neutral jump in the opposite direction, then turning around, Maui can accelerate towards that direction more quickly. This gains a bit of distance on a lot of jumps. But, by releasing the forward direction for a single frame, then repressing it, the speed first drops to 2.938px/f and then rises back to 3.063px/f. So yeah, basically all of this scans.- Jump speed cap manipulation: normally Maui's horizontal speed cap is of 3 pixels per frame during a jump. If you’re curious about the Mayflower thing, this is probably a reference to the comic book Mickey Mouse and the Treasure of the Mayflower (it’s part of the Once Upon a Time… In America series), in which Mickey’s ancestors actually do travel to what is now the United States on the Mayflower. He looks after his nephews but lashes his temper on them whenever they cause mischief.ĭonald is an American born son of Scottish immigrants (his mother immigrated with Scrooge from Scotland to the USA) while Mickey traces his ancestry to the Mayflower. He is neither dependable nor very successful at his jobs. He usually does meager labor for his grouchy uncle. Well, Donald Duck is more down to earth than Mickey Mouse.ĭonald is a bachelor for over thirty years, despite having a girlfriend. This makes me suspect that both of these games ( Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow and PK: Out of the Shadows) were created specifically for the European market, and that when it came time to bring these games to the States, executives sort of scratched their heads over what to do to make the games more popular with North American players.Īctually, I found this post in a CBR thread about why Europeans like Donald so much, and I had to share it: I do know that Donald Duck is more popular in Europe than in the United States (and this has been true for decades). ![]()
