What

Heroes vs. Villains' player now looks like the CodeRabbit hero rabbit from the artist handover (low-poly 3D model: white fur, orange-and-white ears, orange cape, orange boots, black belt).

Hoppy's existing 2D poses are kept. Only the palette changes:

Hoppy CodeRabbit hero
orange fur, cream muzzle white fur, cool grey shadows
pink inner ears orange
charcoal suit and cape orange
gold belt black
orange boots orange
ink outline, eyes, effect marks unchanged
  • tools/build_coderabbit_hero_2d.py builds Assets/Character/CodeRabbit/2D/heroes_villains/coderabbit_hero{,_locomotion}.{png,tres} from hoppy.png / hoppy_locomotion.png. The SpriteFrames are copied from Hoppy's, so cells, clip names, fps and loop flags match exactly.
  • reinvent/player.gd and the HvV how-to-play card use the new sheets.
  • docs/previews/heroes-villains/ was refreshed by a graphical heroes_villains_smoke.gd run (--always-on-top). hoppy_victory_*.png shows the new hero.

Not covered

  • Weapon sheets (Assets/hoppy-armed) and the story/ending cards still draw orange Hoppy. Holding a weapon shows the old look (see stage_1_room_1.png).

Tests

uv run --python 3.12 --no-project python tools/tests/run_tests.py --godot /Applications/Godot.app/Contents/MacOS/Godot: 65 passed, 0 failed, 8 skipped. The graphical HvV smoke run passed every check.

Heroes vs. Villains' player now uses coderabbit_hero{,_locomotion}.tres:
Hoppy's existing poses, palette-swapped to the artist handover model
(white fur, orange ears, suit, cape and boots, black belt). Ink outline
and baked effect marks are kept. tools/build_coderabbit_hero_2d.py
rebuilds the sheets from hoppy.png / hoppy_locomotion.png.

The HvV how-to-play card uses the same sheets. Weapon sheets
(Assets/hoppy-armed) and story cards still draw orange Hoppy.

Heroes vs. Villains now references CodeRabbit-colored hero sheets for gameplay and how-to-play poses. Added tools recolor hero sprite sheets and rabbit figures in two story images. The beat’em-up mode selector now presents its two modes as image cards.

Changes: Heroes vs. Villains character appearance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Generate hero and armed sprite resources
hoppys-adventure-arcade/tools/build_coderabbit_hero_2d.py, hoppys-adventure-arcade/Assets/Character/CodeRabbit/2D/heroes_villains/*
The build script recolors combat, locomotion, and armed sheets, removes a third ear from specified locomotion cells, and retargets SpriteFrames resources. The added resources define atlas frames, animations, and texture-import settings.
Recolor hero figures in story images
hoppys-adventure-arcade/tools/build_coderabbit_hero_story.py
The script segments and recolors rabbit figures in two story images, then saves the resulting images.
Use the new sheets in gameplay and tutorials
hoppys-adventure-arcade/modes/beatem_up/reinvent/player.gd, hoppys-adventure-arcade/modes/beatem_up/reinvent/art.gd, hoppys-adventure-arcade/app/how_to_play_data.gd, hoppys-adventure-arcade/app/how_to_play_demo.gd, hoppys-adventure-arcade/tests/how_to_play.gd
The player and how-to-play poses reference the new hero sheets. Armed animation resources load from the new armed-sheet directory, and the test recognizes the new hero sheets.

Beat’em-up mode selection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Display modes as image cards
hoppys-adventure-arcade/scenes/beatem_up/beatem_menu.gd
The mode selector replaces full-width play buttons with image cards, retains their routes and focus callbacks, and moves return and quit buttons to a separate row.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~30 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 7abc8

A few effect-mark pixels in the generated hero sprite sheet may be recolored when they should stay unchanged. This is a small cosmetic issue. Otherwise the change looks low risk to merge.

Security architecture risk: Minimal · up to 7abc8

The inspected changes affect character artwork and how the game loads it. No introduced or worsened risk materially affecting security, failure containment, rollback, or ownership was established.

Explanation

The title follows Conventional Commits and names the main change: the Heroes vs. Villains player is re-skinned in the CodeRabbit hero's colours. The changeset matches this. It adds CodeRabbit hero sprite sheets and SpriteFrames, updates player.gd and the how-to-play data to use them, and adds a build script that recolours Hoppy's sheets. The title does not mention the armed-weapon, story-card, or beat-'em-up menu changes, but it does not need to cover every detail.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description covers the main sections of the template. The What section explains the palette change, the tool, and the updated how-to-play card and preview images. The Testing section gives the exact command and results. The Screenshots section is implied by the refreshed preview images, though no inline images are linked. The Checklist is not ticked. The description does not link an issue with 'Closes #'. It does not mention the ASSETS_LICENSES.md update for the new art, and it does not mention test additions for changed behaviour, or docs under docs/ beyond the previews. The beat-'em-up menu change in the commit history is also not described.

Resolution

Consider these additions: a 'Closes #' issue link if one exists; confirmation that new assets are listed in ASSETS_LICENSES.md with a redistributable license; a note on whether tests were added or updated for the changed behaviour, since the tests/how_to_play.gd change is only a one-line edit; a description of the beat-'em-up mode-select tile change; and ticked checklist items.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Exclude gold and dark effect pixels from recoloring.

The effect exemption at lines 118–120 covers only orange, cream, and pink. The gold and dark palette replacements at lines 128–129 do not check the effect mask. Gold-hued effect pixels in the combat cells are therefore recolored. In the committed coderabbit_hero.png, seven visible pixels in the outer strips of the swing, shield, and scanner cells change from gold-hued values such as (253, 190, 101) to (85, 83, 87). This conflicts with the PR's stated requirement that effect marks stay unchanged. Dark effect pixels can take the same unguarded path.

Build the effect mask from all three candidate colors, then exempt gold and dark pixels too. Pixels inside the ink-filled character shapes stay outside fx, so the belt and suit still recolor.

…ero sheets

- The walk_down frames inherited a stub third ear from Hoppy's art; it is
  cut along the head's curve, re-inked, and its leftover outline slivers
  removed.
- The recolour now classifies regions instead of single pixels: confident
  colours (fur, suit, inner ear, belt) first, then blended and stray pixels
  take their neighbours' region. Inner ears read solid orange, fur edges fade
  into the ink instead of picking up orange specks.
- Black shadow blots and crease lines that were invisible on Hoppy's black
  cape now shade deep orange (suit) or grey (white lining); outlines stay ink.

Previews refreshed by the graphical heroes_villains_smoke run.

…paintings

- The five armed sheets (stamp, hammer, baton, scanner, PR merger) are
  recoloured like the unarmed ones and live in
  Assets/Character/CodeRabbit/2D/heroes_villains/armed/; reinvent/art.gd
  loads them, keeping the armed-Hoppy manifest and weapon-only carry icons.
  The weapons are painted in Hoppy's orange and black, so per-frame boxes
  traced from each sheet mark the weapon; it keeps its original colours.
- tools/build_coderabbit_hero_story.py repaints only the rabbit in
  send_in_the_rabbit.png (intro) and rabbit_stands.png (ending), cut out
  with GrabCut from traced outlines, starting from the selected masters.

Previews refreshed by the graphical heroes_villains_smoke run.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Inner ears: Hoppy's pink ear is painted as streaks, so it came out as
  broken orange with white specks. Each inner ear is now closed into one
  solid shape and lone specks are dropped; the armed sheets' lighter salmon
  pink counts as inner ear too.
- Boots: only a fixed bottom band was kept orange, so a foot raised mid-run
  turned half white. A boot is now a whole orange patch in the figure's
  lower 30%; patches that only touch the band (cape lining, a trailing arm)
  keep just their lower part orange.
- Review stamp: in the idle and run frames the stamp body touches the paw
  with no ink between them, so it flickered white/orange while walking. The
  stamp body is pinned to its own colours and the paw to white in every
  idle, run, equip and hurt frame.

Previews refreshed by the graphical heroes_villains_smoke run (14/14).
