![]() The Ore Club's tornado's size varies with the charge of smash attack, and the Super Scope's shots can be charged (though it runs out of ammunition faster that way). There are also items which can be charged. Moves such as Wario's Wario Waft and R.O.B.'s Robo Burner automatically charge over time, while Little Mac's Power Meter and Cloud's Limit Break are charged by dealing and receiving damage. In addition to manually chargeable moves, a few passive charging mechanics exist. Some chargeable special moves, most of them projectiles, can be charge-canceled, allowing a charge to be saved for later. Sonic's Spin Charge is unique in that it is charged by pressing the special button repeatedly. Certain special moves can also be charged, either by holding the special attack button or by pressing the button once to begin charging and again to launch the attack. Ultimate, charged smash attacks can be held for significantly longer. In all games except Super Smash Bros., smash attacks can be charged for up to 60 frames (1 second) by holding the attack button, which increases their damage up to a maximum of 1.4x (1.3671x in Melee), with a corresponding increase in knockback.

Perhaps most people will be put off by the archaic workflow implemented in Cyclone, however fans of old audio hardware and people in search of authentic 80s sounds will definitely enjoy this freebie. I have a geeky attraction towards using old hardware instruments and although it took me more than 20 minutes to figure out how to load sounds into Cyclone, it was 20 minutes of pure fun!

Sonic Charge really went into detail here. ![]() A 25 year old sampler, imagine that!Ĭyclone emulates the original hardware down to circuit level and runs the same operating system as the original sampler (the Typhoon 2000 operating system which was often used as the substitute for the factory OS).
