Deciding to name my current attempt at a hack after my first one. Mainly because I'm uncreative and was stuck for days on a name... Anyway... Ahem...
So, I'm making a hack and with a lot of help from the good ol' Lui37 and his magical flying pizza, it's going to have some c001 A5Ms (custom bosses mainly, but a few other nifty things too which he doesn't know about - or he does and I haven't quite told him he's gotta make it haha). If Lui37 and his magical flying pizza refuse to make anything (or he unexpectedly dies during the process of making this hack), said feature will not be in the hack. Anyway, enough of Lui37 and his magical flying pizza, onto my part.
If you're into complex, deep and fancy plots, you should leave this thread now and not come back. Why? Well, I had the greatest idea for a plot (totally 100 percent original) and it's this:
w0w s0 c001!!1
To go through a few other features:
- Mario can wall kick (I thought about ground pound to but getting that to work like modern games and have the next option seemed to much of a task so I didn't bother)
- like others, I'm using LX5's new fancy powerup stuff - not all of them, only the most fitting ones (ice flower, boomerang flower, hammer suit, shell suit and the leaf thingy)
- eight worlds and one bonus world unlocked after collecting all the star coins
- obvious generic grassland as first world
- obvious generic lava land as eight world
- obviously it's a SMW hack (if you think it isn't then you're fucking stupid)
- flag pole goal with some help from Lui37 and his magical flying pizza to keep layer 3 and HDMA on the goal routine
- pretty much every graphical element from the original game will be changed (even the smoke animation)
- I hope to have a custom soundtrack too... We'll see...
- you'll have to excuse but put up with shitty backgrounds like the cave and castle ones... I've never been any good at them and that doesn't seem to want to change
I thought about listing the world names and themes and going through all the rest of the shit you don't give a fuck about. But really all you came for is screenshots... So here you go!
Lime Meadows 1
Obviously the first level. Split into two sections - a grass half and a cave half. Most levels are split into two sections because of reasons further down. They usually have a little bit of difference to keep things fresh.
Lime Meadows 2
Second level of the hack has to be a cave. This one has nice Buzzy Beetles and Goombas. It also has a secret exit somewhere...
Lime Meadows Fortress
Every world has a fortress so here's your first one. Reznors are fortress bosses but they're great Reznors that you've never fought before. Lui37 and his magical flying pizza is who you have to thank!
Lime Meadows 3
Monty Mole lives here. Well, more than one. I have a weird bug with the ground dwelling ones that I can't change their palettes with Stear or Tweaker. So if you see any Monty-Blue-Breast, ignore them.
Lime Meadows 4
The wonderful mushroom level! Featuring red bouncy mushrooms, Fuzzy and line guides. Remind me to find a 32x32 Fuzzy for the next one.
Lime Meadows 5
Almost done! Introducing the Hammer Bro. here. He has other brothers such as Fire and Boomerang, but they don't live nearby. Maybe look in the desert for them?
Lime Meadows Castle
Every world has a castle... Duh! Castle bosses are Koopa Kids (w0w 0r1g1nal) and I think this one is Lemmy if I remember correctly. I can't remember what I decided. All castle levels are vertical and they are not split into two sections. This makes them a little trickier for reasons below unless you can find some secret rooms... This level's gimmick mainly revolves around wind and that on/off switches change the direction.
So, why are the levels split? Because no midway points. I fucking hate midway points - well, placing them anyway (they're useful in other hacks, though). Instead, I've used a patch that does something similar to SMB2. Released some C3s ago by: none other than Lui37 and his magical flying pizza!
Oh and as a bonus you can have this:
Yes I even changed those. How fun.
Anyway, that's all (all? That's loads) I have for today. I'm working on this whenever slowly or fastly depending on what day it is, what direction the wind is going and whether it's a full moon or not. So, progress will come whenever.
Yep.
