Today I have decided to make a thread for a little side project I'm working on -- a Yoshi's Island hack! It is called "The Yoshi Tribe - A Tale of Battles", and here is the story:
"Many years ago, Master Yoshi, the father of all of the Yoshi tribe, was taken away by an evil baby king, Bowser Koopa. Many thought the treacherous turtle had killed Master Yoshi, but one of the Yoshis, the green one, also known as the Gracious Green, could not believe his father's defeat. He then started a rebellion. For many years had that whole island been in control of Bowser Koopa, but the Yoshi Tribe had enough. They wanted all that madness to stop, and, with the Gracious Green as their leader, they would storm every Fort, land, mountain, or island, until they defeated Bowser and rescued Master Yoshi. Nothing would be able to stand in their way, not even the mighty Giant Chomps, the shy, but fierce, Shyguy Clan, or any other type of creature in this world. They would not stop. But one day, a baby fell from the sky. No one knew what it was, because the Yoshis never had contact with a human before. The baby started to cry and point in a direction, which seemed to be the direction of Bowser Koopa's Fort. Thinking the baby might know something, the Yoshis decided to take him with them. After some traveling, they ended up in a rocky, but grassy area. They discovered that Bowser's minions wanted the baby, and so the Yoshis decided to help it reach Bowser's Fort, and do what it wanted. And so begins a new tale, a tale of battles, where the baby and the Yoshi Tribe fight fiercely to reach their enemie's master."
Any feedback on the story? Anyhow, here are some screenshots of the intro level:
Some decoration on the ground, as well as the first enemie clan you'll see in the game: the Shyguy Clan.
Getting some ammunition, and preparing to take treasure.
The Piranha Parasites have appeared! Let's put an end to their activities in this area.
Don't get hit by the...uhm...flying Needlenose?
There are more Plants!
I wonder what are these holes on the ground...Maybe they were caused by the Parasites' roots.
There doesn't seem to be anything left behind.
Take that!
Now that we have ended our search here, let's move on to the next area.
Any feedback or comments are apprecciated.
EDIT: Taking some suggestions from Blumiere, I have made less elevated ledges, and more slopes.
