Description
The Darkstalkers series is one of the earliest examples of cps2 style of work. Unfortunately while later games got the benefit of lessons learned from this early attempt, the characters from DS never really got a proper revamp and got stuck with dated graphics. Someone correct me if I am wrong with the exact number, but remember Morrigan's appearance in Capcom vs SNK? She was there using a spriteset at least a decade old at that point.Credit for doing the inital work of color separation on claws and added ear detailing goes to Jesuszilla. If you are reading this, yes I will finish updating those last few animations in a bit!

Yeah , you are absolutely right. While Street Fighter benefitted from constant sprite revamps and overhauls of all kind, Darstalkers was abandoned pretty much on it's 1994 state. The few revisions the franchise had felt very underwhelming.
In my opinion, due both games being from the same year, right afte ther first game they should have converted Darkstalkers to the X-Men-Children of the Atom gameplay, and then just update the sprites little by little with each game. I think that could been turned Darkstalkers into their new fighting blockbuster.

The coloring and detail on Feliciaβs sprite are perfect! If 2D was back in style, I nomminate this version to be in a Darkstalkers game! Sweet update!
