My girlfriend doesn’t have a tumblr but she wanted me to ask you this-

The character Čeda Čedović, main character of At Least There is Čeda Čedović, could have a potential Ryu Number by connecting him to Edmund McMillund's games, but it depends on what you count as official, as ALTiCC is a non-commercial game. LONG ASK INCOMING:

1. Ceda appears as a Co-op Baby in The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth under the name Hooligan Baby along with the rest of his group, The Poor 4 (Half Spider Baby = Miroslav, Silly Baby = Djole and Master Cook Baby = Andre), but it is made unclear if this can be really considered him. Considering the creator of Čeda, LeatherIceCream, was involved with the development of the addon Repentance, and these babies in specific look a lot more like their original counterparts compared to other babies with references looking more like costumes, this could potentially count, and you could link Isaac and Shovel Knight together in Blade Strangers, then link Shovel Knight to Smash Ultimate, boom, Ryu. (There are also multiple other co-op babies that are meant to be characters from Mario, Final Fantasy and Warhammer 40K, but they resemble cosplays more than actual cameos.)

2. Bumbo, listed in-game as coming from Legend of Bumbo but also appearing in Isaac, appears as an enemy in At Least There is Čeda Čedović. This could be considered an unofficial cameo, but once again, LeatherIceCream has worked with Edmund before. If you believe this, this involves the same process listed above.

3. If that's not enough for you, Stephen from Edmund's game TIME FCUK also appears in At Least There is Čeda Čedović, as an NPC with dialogue. If we use the same logic used above, Stephen also appears in Binding of Isaac as an item, follow steps above.

This is a very interesting situation as it depends on how strict you are on the commercial rule. If a crossover is official in a non-commercial game, does it still count? Would love to hear the answer on this.

Čeda Čedović has a Ryu Number of 4.

(clarification below)

Going off the precedent I set with Owata, character appearances as links are fair game as long as the character getting linked from appears officially. Since Čeda's appearance is self-evidently official in At Least There is Čeda Čedović, all other appearances in the game are fair game for the sole purpose of linking Čeda to Ryu. This is why Steven from Time Fcuk is valid in this context, even if the sum total of Edmund McMillen's involvement with the game appears to be a Special Thanks credit under his Newgrounds handle of BlueBaby.

In contrast, even if we put aside that Pannacotta Fugo from JoJo Part 5 is just a normal, nonunique enemy in At Least There is Čeda Čedović, the game cannot be used to link from Fugo to another character, since it's not an official appearance.

(Not that it would even be the optimal path in the first place, but I digress.)

John Cooper from the Desperados games?

John Cooper does not* have a Ryu Number.

(clarification below)

The Desperados games seem content to keep real life Wild West figures out of the series, so the series appears to be a nonstarter as a whole.

Unless you have thoughts on the Baron.

The Baron, who offers and narrates the eponymous Baron Challenges in Desperados III, is a voice-only character described in mission intros as:

dressed in a fine suit

dark skinned

with a smokey voice

impossibly bright eyes

This is by no means a slam-dunk description of the Vodou loa Baron Samedi, but it's not wholly incongruous, and given that voodoo is significant in the game, what with it being set in New Orleans, I mean,

if you really wanted to, I guess.

Correction for Stanley from Spiritfarer:

Charon the famed boatman of Greek mythology appears in Spiritfarer as the original spiritfarer who passes on the title to your character, Stella. I think it's definitely a "looks like a duck, quacks like a duck" type situation - he drives a boat, is some kind of big spirit dude, and his job is to help spirits move to the afterlife.

So Stanley (and other Spiritfarer original characters) should have a Ryu Number through that! I believe it would be three, as I don't see Charon in the Greek Mythology Mash-Up Pack for Minecraft.

Stanley -(Spiritfarer)-> Charon -(Hades)-> Hades -(Minecraft)-> Ryu

Thanks for hosting this blog, Ryu Numbers are super fun!

This is normally where I gesture to game unfamiliarity, but this one's really bad on account of the game's entire premise being taking over this dude's job. Guess I got stunlocked by Hades looking like, you know,

So that's my bad. Oops.

Thank you for the correction!

Alan Wake can be updated to 2 now that Alan's been added to DBD, so it's Alan -> Leon (DBD) -> Ryu (Project X-Zone).

Thank you for the update!

Have the official Minecraft texture packs for Adventure Time and Steven Universe (and less importantly LittleBigPlanet and Super Mario) ever been used for anything?

And more importantly, are there any fandoms that rely on those connections to make progress towards Ryu?

Adventure Time and Steven Universe do not require the Minecraft mash-ups on account of official Brawlhalla skins. I've used the Mario Minecraft mash-up for a bit, but likewise, Smash precludes the need to use it.

The same cannot be said for LittleBigPlanet; without the skin pack, Sackboy would have a 2 through PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, so it's been deployed for some FromSoft properties through 3D Dot Game Heroes.

Does the Rookie from Halo 3: ODST have a Ryu Number?

Jonathan Doherty a.k.a. the Rookie has a Ryu Number of 1.

If we are not mistaken, Really from Popn Music (yes, Really really IS their name) has a Ryu number of 4, because Sans in Popn Music Unilab (a game that features Really in it) then connects to Reimu -> King Dedede -> Ryu.

Really has a Ryu Number of 3.
