that's right! our 6th playable fighter, ithaca the hunter, has released! we're still working on a trailer for him, but i figured there's no reason our players can't enjoy him before advertising his release to a wider audience.
ithaca has a unique shotgun mechanic that may be difficult to master. you have two shells, and many of your attacks will use this ammo. all of these attacks are quite powerful, sending you flying in any given direction depending on the move. you can reload your shots by using down special (the dedicated reload move) OR by hitting an opponent with neutral special or forward tilt. you also get your ammo back by wall jumping or using your burst to save yourself.
the tutorial, new stages, and workshop update are still coming soon, i just wanted to release ithaca to the players as soon as i could. i hope you enjoy him!
