say hi to Zed.
[spoiler="minor spoilers. if you don't read this, you won't know what's up with this guy, but it you might have a better experience if the beat 'em up becomes a real game. your choice."]
Zed is the next-to-last boss of the beat 'em up, right before Mr. Z. (see a pattern?)
he's basically the Shiva of the game, filling the role of Mr. Z's right-hand man.
he's got a grudge against Crappy, but i have yet to decide why.
he's actually a character i've had (though didn't exactly design) for a while. he was originally going to appear in a much older project i had with gatsby, titled Paradeem 8. there, he was going to be called Commander Zoda, in reference to StarTropics.
his redesign here is fairly minor, but it's also subject to change right now. i'm hoping gatsby can help me make his jumpsuit a little more interesting.
