Super Mario Bros: Vanilla Islands - World 7 is done!

Standard

World 6 is now done. I moved "You Rock My World" over to 6-3, as it seems harder than 6-2. Here's the new 6-1.

World 6-1 - Bills, Bills, Bills!

Before starting this level, I came to the realization that I've come all this way with levels and haven't used Bullet Bills. It took a little bit to think of the name because I was focusing on the "Bullet" part. When I thought about the "Bill," it clicked.





World 6-4 - Larry Koopa's Castle

Level layout looks good; although the most impressive thing to me is Larry boss. But load offsets of his projectiles need to be fixed.

Anyway, both levels look pretty good once again!

@K.T.B.: That's because the cannon is a sprite with low tile priority.

Yeah, I am going through this pretty fast. I'm down to only 7 levels remaining. There are things about doing vanilla/choconilla that just make it so much easier to make progress quickly. I think the main thing is having the Objects available for things like ground. It's kinda tedious to build land from direct Map16.

Yeah, I finished up another level earlier today. Before I show it off, here's the World 7 Map in-game.


Yep, it's the obligatory Slippy Slidey Ice World.

World 7-1 - Snow (Hey Oh)

WOW! Gamma V, your project looks awesome! Can't wait to try it out!
Who is your favourite player?

@ForthRightMC: You might not have to wait too long. I'm now down to 5 levels. Since my last post, I've finished 6-2 and 6-3.

World 7-2 - Ice, Ice, Baby!
Probably the hardest part of making this level was creating the Venus Frost Traps that populate the pipes. The plant itself was easy, just being an edit of imamelia's Bomb-Spitting Venus, but the projectile, which is the standard sprite Iceball from NamelessProtagonist's Ice Bros, needed to be dug out from the Legacy Sprites, where it was pretty well-hidden. It also needed to be run through Trashkas, which messed up several other sprites when I first ran it because I didn't put it in its own folder. Once all that was done, I got a Venus Frost Trap just like the ones from my 2018 CLDC entry, which were made using the same sprites. Next time something I could use gets lost in a remoderation, I think I'll just quote Prime Ratchet. "I NEEDED that!"


After finishing the level, I realized that the song I used, Slippery Subterranean, could use some channel rearrangement. While doing so, I decided to try "de-sampling" it. This is the result.

7-1:

Really nice looking level in terms of aesthetics. Though now that I come to think about it, the moon coin graphics could use the animated colours from palette 6. Also the ice spikes just doesn't fit with the environment; they look a bit too realistic. I think it's just me though

In the level itself, it seems that the Ice Bro.s iceballs melt the frozen coins? And make a coin sound effect when it lands? I suggest you change that.
For the sub-area with the moon coin, I would prefer the moon coin come in with a poof instead of suddenly appearing.

7-2:

I can clearly see a junk map16 tile next to the semisolid at 0:07. Probably just a mistake. And there is a bizarre glitch at 0:59 where the penguin clips through the slope. I guess this patch would fix it? Plus the spiky balls the piranha plants are blowing have their colours a bit messed up. You could change that into a more red, green or black colour.

The level before the checkpoint also felt kinda short to me, so if could add more level, that would be nice. Other than those, I wasn't able to find any glaring issues.
I don't know what to do about the iceballs thawing the ice blocks. I guess the blocks' code thinks they're Mario's fireballs. I don't know how to fix that. Making the Moon Coins in Kill Rooms appear in a puff of smoke may also be something a little out of my league in terms of ASM. I don't think it's as simple as calling the shared routine for smoke sprites.

It is as simple as calling the shared routine. Just put
Code
%create_smoke()

whenever you want to spawn a smoke sprite and you're good to go.

Thanks, Alex. I still have you friended on Discord. When the beta's ready, I could DM you the bps. I've been working fast on this. I guess that's what happens when, even after a year, a pandemic is still keeping me home for the most part. Stupid coronavirus!

Speaking of working fast...

World 7-4 - Lemmy Koopa's Castle


This first room was fairly straightforward to design. These blue Bowser statues fire snowflakes that freeze Mario on contact.


The second room was much harder to nail down. It went through at least three iterations before I finally decided what to do. These large ice blocks are Tracker Blocks. They're both platforms and hazards. You can hitch a ride on them, but don't slip off, and definitely don't get caught between one of these things and a wall. They'll crush you!


This last one takes a pretty erratic path, and you also have to watch out for that ice blue Bowser Statue. Its snowflakes hurt!


Hmm...a boarded-up boss door and a couple Ice Bros? I wonder what this could mean!

World 8 Map

You can't see it in a static image, but the darkest color of the lava is ExAnimated. Meanwhile, the lightning animation from the original Valley of Bowser map has been done away with. I JUST learned you can do that in the latest Lunar Magic.

Awesome! Can we get some screenshots of 8-1?

The boss door in World 7-4 looks nice with the X on it and nice map for World 8.
A Secret World 9?
Ninja Boy or Chuggaconny.

Lexend is the world's fastest to read font and I am the only one who uses it.

Probably not.

No World 9. In order to keep this fairly simple, there aren't any secrets.

@Blue Toad: You mentioned wanting to see 8-1, right? Well...

World 8-1 - Make It Hot




This second area features falling rocks. It wasn't easy to keep this fair, as the original sprite I used didn't give any sort of warning before falling. It was harder still to avoid slowdown here.
