This looks really awesome. I mean, I really like this. I can't wait to see how my little guy will develop and behave.
EDIT: The $5000 pledge on your Kickstarter page says that you get to design a character that defies the visual rules other players are held to. But I didn't see any visual rules on the site, and the "Send us a sketch" button just opens an email. I'm afraid my character may violate some rules. Just let me know. /EDIT
Funny story, my co-founder and I designed these guys to be sort of an odd couple, so this seems like the perfect outlet for them! I had actually forgotten all about these little mascot guys until just now.
Right now we aren't limiting drawings with rules because we are gathering data for all the different types of drawings that can be thrown at it. On Kickstarter the reward means you get a character that can pretty much do anything you can imagine, because we can program specific moves for it that are not in the move pool.

It's a late night in the office, so I sent you a whiteboard sketch of my company's robot mascot, Jango Webbot: http://cdn2.alfajango.com/images/jango_web.jpg?1279741285
I would love to see him battle our other mascot, Alfa Automabot: http://cdn1.alfajango.com/images/alfa_web.jpg?1279741285

To clarify, the "drawing rules" are exactly that - the rules right now are that you upload a drawing and it becomes a graFighter.
A graFighter that "defies the rules" would be one with animation, with multiple forms, with unique behaviors - things you can't convey in a sketch.
