Do you know about those Super Mario Bros. 2 weeds with vegetables buried under them? Well, I replaced the vegetables with...
Pikmin.
Honestly, I have no idea why no one has ever thought of this before! Pikmin buried in the ground and being able to throw them like this makes total sense! I started playing the Pikmin games earlier this year, starting with Pikmin 3, then 1 Wii, then 2 Wii, and a level like this immediately came to mind.
It's not a simple graphic change, though. For one thing, all of the enemies in the level can't be killed by conventional Mario means. They must be killed by throwing the Pikmin at them. You will also find a bunch of obstacles while playing the level that must be destroyed by throwing Pikmin at them. There's a limited number of Pikmin available in the level. If you run out and you can't proceed, you're forced to kill yourself.
This is basically a proof of concept of what you'd expect in this level.
On another note, something that I really wanted to do for this level is, O.K., do you see that Pikmin Onion on the left side of the picture and the enemy on the right? What I wanted to was be able to kill the enemies, and they would leave their corpses behind. You would then be able to pick up the corpses and throw them at the Onion. After that, the corpse would disappear and the Onion would shoot out Pikmin seeds, fall to the ground, and you'd have more Pikmin to throw, EXACTLY like the Pikmin games. I've been trying for A WEEK to get this to work. Although it seems simple, this system has very strict standards that can't be met easily. I've tried very intricate methods to get this system to work properly. At one point, I got it all set up! I throw a corpse at the Onion, the Onion shoots out Pikmin seeds, the seeds fall to the ground, and new Super Mario Bros. 2 weeds containing Pikmin appear. I was very glad and excited then. Unfortunately, my happiness turned to disappointment when I found out that the newly formed Super Mario Bros. 2 weeds freaking DISAPPEARED when I scrolled the screen too far! Ugh, talk about DISAPPOINTING! I was SO CLOSE!
I tried some more for a bit and I eventually decided to give up. If anyone else wants to try, go ahead. If you want the details, I'll give them to you.
