Project is completed.
Only the GA1, GA2 and GA3 cast are guaranteed working as intended.
The rest of the playable enemies are largely 'frameworks' right now ie barebones anything just to be functional within the minimum requirements for a character to work. Exception is probably playable Amazon, Lizardman and playable Death Adder. Death Adder at least is reasonably polished. He's my template of sorts for playable boss characters.
So, yeah, if there's anything broken with a playable enemy, that's the reason why.
You should probably remove them from being playable then as it will cause you a huge pile of problems to fix later on and you will be overwhelmed,
The same happened with the original GA1 and all remaining lives and continues went, its a universal bug affecting all characters it seems, there's also a throw glitch with said GA1 character.

I've been helping test the game and characters for many months now. A very frequent issue: character sprite offsets. To my trained eye, as a hardcore Golden Axe player, it's obvious. Proud Cragger was recently fixed - since the start of development he had offset issues during running and walking, but nobody fixed them.
When I point these out - the developers fix them, and I'm grateful for that.
Not all characters are ready yet - we're aware of the issue.
Up to kimono really. He wanted them in the open as people could highlight issues and I agree on that front. I'm just saying that they are nowhere near as polished or 'completed' as the core cast characters (except for the ones mentioned ie Amazon, Lizardman and Adder).
That throw glitch is weird, I'll have a look into it, thanks for pointing it out... quite sure that did not exist during my final testing run...
Of all the core cast, Cragger gave me the biggest headaches... so you're welcome
. He can also grab an enemy without hitting them first (he's the only one who can) and can throw up, down, left, right. His Proud Bomb throw was moved to a special move slot and cleaned up. He also has super armor during his attacks.There shouldn't be any offset issues with the core cast left. All sprites should be correctly aligned, and there should be no animation desyncs either ie throws should all properly line up and fall correctly. There should also be no missing sound effects... everyone should have noticed by now that the GA1, GA2 and GA3 cast all have their respective game's sound effects... If there are any missing effects please let me know.
My role on the dev team is to create/design the gameplay for the player characters. kimono creates the general framework and then I take what he's given me and clean it up, add all the bells and whistles and create unique moves etc. If there are any bugs ie desyncs, missing animations etc, that's my problem to fix.
If there are any level glitches, enemy glitches etc, that's kimono's problem

Today I discovered a glitch while playing as Sara Burn. After mounting a dragon on level 5, I dismounted and used magic (2 bottles), then immediately mounted the dragon again and the magic refilled. This could be repeated infinitely.
Also noticed that at the beginning of level 6, you can climb to the top of the castle entrance.

Yeah, just to clarify - the sprite offset bugs I've been finding are only on GA2 and GA3 characters.Up to kimono really.

There's been a bunch of them, but I've been taking screenshots and sending everything to Kimono as I go!
Send character bugs to me. I'm the one that has to fix them.

Do you plan to add Arnold from the game Blade Master?

@vokilvulga : There are still a few tricks to configure and create for him, as the original model is relatively basic.
@LetsPG : Yes, that's what I wrote on the first line of the post: the duo will act as bosses (and Aldrick from Battle Blaze as midbosses on the same level).

Oh... We Tested this... very inspiring
The new super moves and attacks on this model are awesome. I definitely think this is the right way for a modern remake to look
I wonder if there will be new moves and tactics for throwing the sword - maybe a lizard tongue-like action would be a good idea to consider in future updates.
what else did I notice:
The soldier with the bat is also great and is synchronized perfectly. It is a real pleasure to play with him.
However, after the first stage he gets restless - he walks around the entire field of the screen, stops fighting or just flies away.
The wizard also showed a sporadic inability to fight - he just freezes seemingly at random.
When creating throw animations.... this is why it's important to set the height and Z plane correctly... I swear this was totally unintentional... 
Are you talking about Lizardman? Coz he does have a tongue grab.
Remember, only the GA1, GA2 and GA3 characters are complete and polished. All the playable enemies are in a VERY rough state. They are largely barely functional so yeah, expect a metric shit ton of bugs.

GA2 and 3 are being worked on. Right now its still just GA1 campaign. You've got GA1, 2 and 3 characters tho.

@shirakani: The enemy rarely dodges runjumpattacks, and I also wouldn't want him to have no reaction or means of defense against the player.
First look at a 35-year-old character: Arnold (Blade Master) in his prime. He'll also have a few new moves and a running animation:
