Started working @BrawlStars in @supercell last year! Here's my first brawler, Ollie! It was a fun challenge and really happy with how it turned out. First of many🔥 Check out the amazing trailer the marketing team did for him, and let me know what you think! Video in thread🧵

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Did you make his character design, gameplay design, or both?

@Dgreegd @BrawlStars @supercell Yo! I mostly work on coding and implementation, with some design brainstorming on the side. Making brawlers is definitely a collaborative effort and the team is 🔥

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell can you explain what inspired you to make a brawler like such because it's obviously a more teamplay reliant brawler with low dps and more control

@warsmith314 @BrawlStars @supercell One of the reasons is trying out new mechanics, and hypnotizing leads itself very well to create cool interactions with your team mates. My fav is probably hypnotizing someone defending in brawl ball and making them walk out of the goal against their will lol

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Looking forward to more! Ollie is pretty original and it actually took me a while to understand how exactly he worked. Really well done! Also if you dont mind me asking, do you only work on brawlers? Or do you also code other abilities, game modes etc. as well?

@TiltingTuna @BrawlStars @supercell Glad you like Ollie! My main focus is implementing brawlers and making sure they're fun to play and polished. But I've also dabbled in other parts of the code (I might have been the one that fixed the infamous spike-demonfire bug 👀)

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Que bueno Martín! Felicitaciones!

@cigumo @BrawlStars @supercell Muchas gracias Ciro! Tenemos que ponernos al día, todo bien por Uruguay? :)

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell One of the better Brawlers in terms of gameplay and balancing we had in a while, just wished he didn‘t had a Fang/Draco-like personality and that his design actually made sense to his tank class

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Hypnotizing effect is really cool, i love Ollie’s gameplay. No offense but you guys gotta fix exploits/bugs there is a really funny bug since Kit was added to the game. Server allows kit to move while he is attached to one of his teammates.

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell So good brawler. Id prefer his design without the mask but is one of my favourite brawlers of this last months

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell He's an amazing brawler, great lore, design and gameplay. Can't wait to unlock him and see future skins of Ollie

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Really interesting design choice with Ollie, Good job 👍

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell I'm definitely gonna play him cuz he's an overall cool Brawler, I just think he needs a buff to his base attack cuz the current meta is very damage heavy.

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Congrats on your first brawler in the game 🥳

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell you literally made colette 2.0 and said "it was a fun challenge and really happy with how it turned out" 😭😭

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell I have a question, do you felt inspired by tyler the creator? Also good job

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell I loved it, you rocked it! And I loved your cat!

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Enhorabuena, has hecho un trabajazo El diseño de Ollie es buenísimo

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell I got him tier max today and I just wanted to say u did an awesome job, ollie is one of my favorite brawlers now

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell amazing job really, he is one of the most balanced and well designed brawlers we have had in a while. i personally love the self mute on his super, it just adds so much more depth and skill cap to his game play!

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell surpisingly balanced, me like it :]

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell You did a great work! Ollie now is one of my favorite brawlers

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Hypnotizing is a cool mechanic but I think you made him way too weak. Why does he mute himself when using super? I genuinely don't understand. Other brawlers like Tara or Fang to name a few can wipe the enemy team with their supers and none of them mute themselves when using it

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell You're good, the brawler is balanced ngl gg

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell @arthursansy parece que não é só a Fernanda que cria os personagens

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Can you make the badges in the Brawl pass even better? Please because they don't fit the season at all, the best season is Sponge Bob season.

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell The Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme was awesome! Loved the whole 90s vibe 🥰

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Was the mask inspired a bit by tyler the creator cas where the design is at seems a bit of the same

@martinTayx @BrawlStars @supercell Hey Martin, is there any chance we could talk in dms?
