There are not many powerups in SFD (actually there's only one as of now) and while the devs have some powerups planned, I'd like to suggest one I think would fit very well in SFD.
Movie-like Reflexes, which is basically invulnerability with a more suiting name considering SFD's hollywoodian atmosphere, this will make the player bob-and-weave out of the way of incoming projectiles matrix-style, and slightly increase their movement speed. However, it'll only make the player invulnerable to projectiles, not melee attacks.
Sounds OP right? here's the catch, the player who activates "Movie-like reflexes" will not be able to equip any of their weapons, one of the purposes of this powerup will be to rush enemies holding an angle (aka camping) with a powerup rather than verbal insults, another plus would be to have the abillity to render power-weapons (such as bazookas and M60s) completely useless for the duration of the powerup, and if you're an experienced player, for the duration of the fight.
Now, with the meat of the suggestion out of the way, here are my shower thoughts on this powerup.
The powerup (as I imagine it) will give an After-Image effect to the player who activates it with some additional "dodge animations" that'll activate when a bullet whizzes past the user
Instead of thrown items being flung past the user, they will be blocked automatically and perhaps added to their arsenal?
I've realised that the name is a bit too much of a mouthful but since most people will just call it invulnerability it doesn't really matter? But I'm open to any suggestions so here's some to bounce off of, pure luck, lucky charm, protagonist's shield or protagonist's luck, plot convenience, aaand... I'll leave the rest to the community before I type in something I might regret later.
