Fighters of Lapis 5/די ספעיס קריזיס וו

"I just want to say this right now, regardless of what they say about it: there is nothing new, only different. Never forget this, the future is for those who take it."

- ???

Fighters of Lapis 5/ די ספעיס קריזיס וו is the fifth installment in the Fighters of Lapis series. It will focus on past versions of characters as well as tons of brand new features such as dungeons and bro specials.

The game has two theme songs played at the menu: Hellberg & Deutgen vs Splitbreed - Collide (Astronaut & Barely Alive Mix) and Madeon - Finale (Dillion Francis Mix).

Gameplay
The gameplay of Fighters of Lapis can be described as a "Super Smash Bros Clone". Characters have four basic attacks, four special attacks. Instead of winning by depleting an opponent's life bar, players seek to knock opposing characters off the stage, KOing them. Characters do not have "health" in Fighters of Lapis; they can take an unlimited amount of damage, however, each hit adds to the character's damage percentage. This percentage starts at 0%, but can exceed 100% and caps at 999%, and the higher the damage percentage, the farther an attack will launch an opponent, and the easier it will be to knock them off of the stage. Being knocked too far above, beside, or even under the stage will KO a character. If knocked off, a character may attempt to get back onto the stage by jumping or using various "recovery" moves before they reach the stage's boundaries. Some characters have different recovery moves, while others have better jumps. Some characters are heavier, making them harder to knock off the stage, and making it harder for them to get back onto the stage, while others are lighter, making it easier for them to get knocked away, as well as easier for them to get back.

Up to eight characters can be on a battlefield at a time: Five can be human players, three can be CPUs. Generally though, four is the most some stages can take and may bar players off if there is too many characters trying to enter the stage.

The game also features items and a bar at the bottom that charges over time based off damage given to opponents. This bar takes a while to charge, but when it is fully charged a Super Move can be executed. New to Fighters of Lapis 5 is Bro Specials. When two characters are on a team and judging whether they have a "bro bond", they will share a special bar. The bar takes 1.5 times the amount a normal one does, but the attack is far more devastating.

There are quite a few modes in Fighters of Lapis separated by "Group" and "Solo" options. The solo modes can also have a second player in the game.

Under the group option:


 * Brawl: The normal gameplay option. The bulk of the game is going to be played here, probably. You select characters and a stage. Items and stage hazards can be adjusted, as well as specials and bro specials.
 * Tournament: Where if you have a party of people you can switch in and out in a tournament type setting.
 * Group City Trial: TBA
 * PROJECT: PAST: A fight that takes place in laboratory stages. These fights feature time mechanics and can be only be completed with a group. Generally, the fight is similar to that of a survival mode with puzzles. There are five waves that the group must complete. It is unlocked after playing as all Past/Present characters.

Under the solo option:


 * The Space Crisis II: The story mode of the game. Like previous story modes in the series, this features platforming and brawl fights. It has cut-scenes and trophies and synthesis items can be collected in this mode. Generally if you want to unlock most of the characters, this is one of the fastest ways.
 * Adventure: A mode that has you pick a character to go through many different stages up against other characters, who each have random effects and dialog towards certain characters. At the end, you face off Morgan Freeman's left hand with 0.00001% Power. Each character has a different ending.
 * Classic: Pits you off on random fighters much like Adventure, but with no minigames. You fight Greg or Landshark at the end; whichever one appears is random. After both have been unlocked, the Fusionist appears instead.
 * Boss Rush: Lets you pick three characters to play as to be fight off the bosses from story mode. They are done in a random order (for the exception of ???) and is unlocked after beating story mode.
 * Multi-Man Melee: Where you fight evil versions of characters that you've unlocked. Some can even be unlocked!
 * City Trial - Lapis Isles: A large stage where a group of characters can free roam the said large stage and meet/unlock other characters. After a certain amount of time is spent exploring the city, 3–7 minutes depending on the options set beforehand (default is 5 minutes), a match begins, where the players can put their new characters up against the other players in one of several different challenges.
 * Championship Cups - Introduced in Fighters of Lapis 4, Championship Cups is a collection of fighting matches against other characters and features a boss at the end. The victor gets the cup and a new character.
 * L-Mode: A dating simulator, using models from the game. It was introduced in Fighters of Lapis 3. It features it's own overworld and aside from dating, has shops which you can purchase Synthesis items.
 * Synthesis: Also introduced in Fighters of Lapis 3, it can be used to fuse items together to get better items. Ingredients can be found randomly, bought, found in a chest in "The Space Crisis II" or Lapis Isles, or obtained through doing certain things.
 * Gallery: Showcases all your trophies as well as other achievements. It's also where items are stored.
 * King Candy's Fungeon: A post-game mode that puts you in a dungeon with several floors. Each floor has different fighters and once you K.O them, they join you. Several new characters can be unlocked as well. These characters are not counted as part of the roster initially, leaving them a complete surprise to the player.
 * Dungeon Train: The dungeon mode introduced in this game. Each dungeon cart is generated randomly, with random enemies and bosses. Can be used to unlock new characters and collect synthesis ingredients. Additionally, you can build up a party with the characters in a RPG-like way.

Story
The Fighters of Lapis participate in a tournament to decide the next member of the group named the Avengers. However, it is high-jacked by a group named the Subspace Army. But when Ultron is revealed to be behind this bit of deja-vu, things start going off the rails!

Starting Characters
There are 85 characters this time around.

Note: past and future characters do not take up another slot. They are toggled through the same slot.

80/85

Characters are past/present/future versions are marked with blue text.

Characters that share the same slot but are NOT past/present versions are marked in red.

Hidden Characters
There are over 150 characters this time around.

Note: past and future characters do not take up another slot. They are toggled through the same slot. Characters that share the same slot are marked with blue text.

NOTE 2: I don't know who's doing it, but they need to knock it off. If you want to edit the page, turn off fancy editing. It ruins the newcomer banners and I gotta fix them again.
