Gimmick Mario -Cancelled. Check my latest post.-

Standard

Hey hey hey, people!
As I've been working on Journey to the Mushroom Kingdom, I started a side-project, which was a bit less fancy, not much custom GFX and whatnot. I eventually turned it into a full fledged project. So as I'm fixing up bugs and stuff in JTTMK in preparation of its release, I thought I might post stuff about this little side project, so here I go.

Gimmick Mario is a hack where in each level there's a random gimmick (like a random puzzle, or a sprite that takes away your coins and you die, etc). Your goal is to work to beat the level despite the gimmick holding your skills back. In other words, you must use the gimmicks to your advantage. There is no story, just beat all the levels! I'm getting pretty sick of the whole Peach is kidnapped thing.
Yeah yeah, if you saw the trailer for JTTMK, I know I did it in that hack, but... uh... fine, you got me.
Pictures of levels will be coming soon! I'm putting finishing touches on the first level. So for now, I'll post some OW pictures. Please keep in mind that I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to OW design. Anyways, here it is:

The overworld in all of its incomplete glory!
I'm planning to have 30+ levels.
I just didn't snapshot the rest of the OW because it's unfinished and looks horrible.


This is the overworld so far.


This is the OW with the events complete, at least for now since I didn't do the events for the other levels yet.
Sounds like a shorter Super Mario Logic. Looks good!#smw{:|}
Heh, thanks, Mercury. I did get a tiny bit of inspiration from SML, but hey, copying is a form of flattery, right?
Is it going to be vanilla hack?
Private Hack Tester. mainly grammar checker(just like grammar nazi), sometimes level design and gameplay(i dont check overworld until if someone send me a special request)
Your OW is square-ish. Try to add some decoration to it, This thread may help you.
Drafree: I was thinking about making it vanilla. What I'm planning to do is let most, if not all levels have custom music, but other than that it'll be vanilla. And I may also have custom GFX and sprites, but that'll be saved for the last levels of the game. So I'd call this hack 93 percent vanilla, 7 percent custom stuff.

Akireyano: I know that's a problem with my overworlds, but I just can't really fix it, try as I might. I've seen some amazing worlds, but I could never make anything like those. #smw{T_T} But I'll try.
Update! I am releasing a 1 level demo of the game. I know you may be thinking, "1 level? thats so short i want moar!". Well, I really don't want to give away to much about the game at the same time. Don't spoil yourself by opening it in LM.

Anyways, here is the link to the demo!
Let me know what you think.
I'm surprised nobody noticed the perspective errors on the overworld.

There are small perspective errors on the top island in the screenshot. Not major.
Is there any levels to show?
I posted a demo of the game yesterday...

Gimmick Mario is now cancelled. I had a recent computer crash and since my backup software sucks, I was only able to save 75 percent of my computer. In that process I lost GM and another hack, but that other one sucked anyways so... yeah.
I'm really sorry if this dissapointed any of you guys. All I was able to salvage was a locked, 2 level demo I intended to release yestersay. I am making this "open" so the hack should unlock with RLM, no problem. If you want to you can use this as a base hack. But all I have left is this demo. So enjoy it, I guess.

Download
You know, you could just download the hack by clicking on the link you gave and continue work from there...

I could but along with the hack, I lost all the resources I used to make it, including a custom sprite a real life friend coded for me.
