Characters

List of playable characters

A playable character is a character which can be selected via the settings menu in the Net64 client, and used for play in-game. Characters only available via ROM hacks or by other means are not official playable characters.

Character Stats
Each character has a set of statistics that make them unique from others. Each stat (excluding size) is given a rating out 4, with 1 being the worst and 4 being the best (shown using power stars). These statistics were given by the Net64 developers themselves.

Size
Size is the measurement of a characters height and width relative to Mario's. 'Small', 'Tiny' 'Large' or 'Giant' ratings are given to characters who are noticeably bigger or smaller than Mario (this does not include slight height differences such as Luigi or Princess Peach). Currently, there are no large characters in the game, however there are 4 tiny characters and one small character.

Jump
The jump statistic represents a character's jump height relative to Mario's. Abilities such as Peach's air float are not taken into consideration as they do not create an increase in jump height

Run
Put simply, this represents a character's run speed relative to Mario's.

Skills
The skills stat represents the balancing of abilities in a character. Characters with a medium (2/4) skill stat have a balanced amount of abilities, whereas a character with a high skill stat has many useful abilities with little to no weaknesses.

Health
The health stat represents the amount of damage a character can take before dying. A medium (2/4) health stat means a character's health will decrease normally in accordance to their power meter. Characters with a higher health stat will require more hits to decrease their power meter, and the opposite goes for characters with a low health stat (excluding Knuckles).

Control
The control stat represents how easy the character is to maneuver around the game. This includes factors such as playing tight vs. being slippery, and abilities that control landing.

Power
The power stat represents how much damage a player can inflict on another player by attacking them. Much like the health stat, almost all characters have a medium (2/4) power stat with the exception of characters with special abilities.
