Battle of the Survivalists

Overall
I would like to make a fighting game that has original characters, cool gameplay mechanics, and gives some homage to each fighting game the mechanics are inspired of. I am anticipating for it to be my best game idea yet (even better than Capcom X Namco: A New Generation of Fighting). Bear with me, I know a lot of inspiration comes from



Mechanics
Parry (Street Fighter 3 Third Strike): First and foremost in my mind is a way to stop an attack without getting dealt any chip damage. This would have to take more skill than just blocking, that's a must.

Mysterious Character (Street Fighter Third Strike): I want a character like Q from 3rd Strike.
