I don't really have much to show off yet, but I really need feedback on what I HAVE done. I don't really know if it's good or not, as i'm trying some new stuff that i've never actually seen a hack do before!
The story goes as follows: Mario decides he needs a break from saving the Princess and the world almost daily, so he decides to take a vaction to a remote island known as Central, upon arrival he notices a massive fortress looming in the distance and lots of familliar faces that seemed to be Bowser's troops.. Looks like his vacation destination wasn't a paradise after all.. He decided that he was going to travel to the fortress and give them a piece of his mind for ruining his vacation!
Now in this hack, there will be 5-6 areas to explore, but they all have varying lengths and some don't have as many levels as the other. Not to mention there is only one fortress level in the whole hack (the final level to be exact)
( i apologize for the stuttery GIFS, future ones will be better)
AREA: SALAD SEASIDE
AREA: Paremesan Cavern
(disclaimer: these submaps are not final, i am not very good at making maps yet and they will DEFINITELY be revamped in the future)
The goal of this hack is to find all 4 switch palaces scattered across the land. You start in a grassland area but once you reach 1-3, you can choose between two areas depending on which exit you get. In other areas it gets much more complex, one exit may lead you through 3 more levels then a new world, or a single level which leads to a ghost house (which all switches will be in) or a brand new world.
As I said the goal of the hack is to find all 4 switches (and it shouldn't be hard, as there will only be 4 ghost houses and in turn only 4 switches, so you don't have to blindly go into ghost houses and think theres a switch at the end when there wont be, there will always be a switch as the exit)
5-6 areas are planned, they aren't really ordered as you can pretty much get to any area from every submap in some way, you could probably even go straight to the final level, but you need all 4 switches activated to enter the fortress.
Now here's some screenshots of the first level: SALAD SEASIDE!
Enjoy!
I only really use basic enemies in this level such as Koopas, Goombas and Propeller Plants.
Thats all for today! I'm going to try to update monthly at the very least, progress is slow, but i'm having a ton of fun making this!
Heres a userbar, if you're interested!:
Edit: Changed the name of SAND CAVE to DUNE BELOW.
(its a pun of down below, i know, i suck)
ANOTHER EDIT: DUNE BELOW Is now Parmesan Cavern, thanks for the idea Pixel-Gon Gamer
