Mario's Strange Quest (Super Mario World Custom 2 )

Standard

Hello everybody! Over the past few months, Yoshi has been working on a new hack called Super Mario World Custom 2. It is yoshi's first hack, but yoshi has been testing it on ZSNES a lot. It is an eight level, one world hack currently, but I eventually plan to have eight worlds. If anyone is not busy, you might as well check it out. It may not be Mario's Keytastrophe, but it is still worth checking out.


(On an unrelated note, I happen to be a big yoshi fan if you have not figured it out by my username, which is why I decided to write this way. And no, I do not talk or write this way outside of the internet.)

Yeah we need screenshots/pictures of your hack to talk about or there aint much to actully talk about. To find out how to do this if you you dont know check out the F.A.Q.
Yoshi sorry for that. Yoshi having trouble posting images in this thread. If you want to see some screens, copy and paste this into the address bar:

http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=showhack&id=4929

The left most image is a picture of the item shop. You can buy those three items here if you need one. The message block shows the prices of the items. By the way this is the only place you can get feathers.

The second image to the left is from Lava Cavern. It is a somewhat short level where mario rides on skull platforms to cross the lava pools.

The second image from the right is from Coin Land, the first level yoshi made. This level is built almost entirely out of coins. So it is a race to get to the P-switches before they run out. Don't worry, there is plenty of room for error here. Here is a tip, when you see the goal, follow the arrow to find another P-switch, then press it near the goal.

The right most image shows the level Snow Pass. It is a somewhat simple stage where yoshi used the Exanimation feature of Lunar Magic to make it look like it is snowing.

Edit: This post is now useless, because yoshi has posted new screenshots and learned how to post screenshots in a forum thread. Also, that link no longer works.

Looks fine so far, all I can say is that in the first picture there are alot of cement blocks, you could use some ExGFX to make it look better or what it appears to be like a shop...

Also the icy level with the mushrooms could have a better question block pallette.

Lastly, I would'nt talk like Yoshi. I dont find it bad but others sure will and they wont be sutle about how they dislike it...
Yoshi isn't trying to go off topic in yoshi's thread, but, I don't really care if others like or don't like yoshi's writing style. If you like it, good, if you don't, thats good too. Yoshi knows that not everyone will like it, since you can't please everyone all the time. The reason yoshi is writing like this is because yoshi wants to be creative, and be a little silly, with these posts. It could be worse, at least yoshi isn't using L33T speak or something similar.

Back on topic, if anyone finds some design flaw in yoshi's hack or has a suggestion on something yoshi should do in the hack, let yoshi know. Yoshi wants this hack to be as good as any other good Super Mario World hacks.

By the way Tomato, yoshi will make the item shop better looking. As for the ? blocks in Snow Pass, which pallette needs improving: the pallette for an unused ? block or the pallette for a used ? block?

Edit: Yoshi just got rid of the cement blocks in the item shop and replaced them with something better looking in the version yoshi is working on.

Yoshi's screenshots are very plain. Try adding hills to the lava in Lava Cavern, remove all the cement blocks in the item shop, things like that.
Merry Christmas everyone! Yoshi wanted to let everyone who plays yoshi's hack to know that the levels in yoshi's hack will be altered in some ways to make them better and/or more interesting. Yoshi will add secrets, make the levels longer, add ExGFX, vary the terrain, etc. That way, there will be a reason to play those levels again in the next demo yoshi makes. Also, the title screen, intro, name, and Overworld are only temporary. They will be changed.

Hello everyone. Yoshi been busy playing the video games yoshi got for christmas, like Metroid: Zero Mission and Donkey Kong Country Returns, to work on hack. Yoshi has been thinking of new levels for hack, though. One level idea yoshi has is a level that will look upside down, where the ground will be above mario and the sky below. Another idea yoshi has is for a level that features the time traveling gimmick from The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages, where Mario must travel between two similar levels to reach the exit. There is also a level in yoshi's hack that yoshi didn't use in the current demo. It is similiar to Coin Land, except that you use stars to cross a forest of munchers. Yoshi plans on making that level differ from Coin Land in some way. Originally, that level was a forest of floating munchers, but after yoshi learned that floating munchers are bad, yoshi went to the forest to eat the munchers. Yoshi just kidding. Yoshi actually deleted all floating munchers in that level and rooted all remaning ones to solid ground or the ceiling. Thats all the updates yoshi has for Super Mario World Custom 2 for now. Keep checking for more updates on yoshi's hack.

Why do you speak in third person?
(To answer your question Green_raven, there are three reasons why I write in the third person outside of parenthesis. The first reason is because I am a big yoshi fan. The second reason is this is how yoshi talked in the Super Mario World Show. The last reason is because I wanted to be a little creative with how I write my posts. If something I write would be too confusing to read in third person, then I will write it in first person and enclose it in parenthesis, like in this post. If you like my writing style, that is fine. If you don't, that is fine too. Oh and I don't talk like yoshi in person or write school assignments like that, only here. If you want to see how yoshi talked in the cartoon, copy and paste this link in the address bar:

Update: After yoshi wrote the last post, yoshi decided to start making the upside down level. Everything, but the enemies, is upside down, even the goal post and the background.

Except for the first and the last picture it doesn't look interesting at all...
I'll test it now and hope that there are more interesting places/levels in this hack.
Yoshi sorry for that. Yoshi isn't very good at advertising. When yoshi finishes the next demo, yoshi will take pictures with more going on or one that shows a unique theme for one of the levels.

By the way, you can't tell from the screenshots, but yoshi has used custom music in Super Mario World Custom 2. If you haven't played the hack yet, these are the songs yoshi is using: Termina Field, Twilight Princess Hidden Village, Yoshi's Island Castle, Yoshi's Island Big Boss (the boss music at the end of level 8 of each world), Super Mario RPG battle music (I used this in the bonus rooms), Link's Awakening Lost Woods, Song of Storms, and two songs from Mario's Keytastrophe. I also changed the P-switch music to Super Mario Galaxy Fire Mario. All of these songs can be found on this site.

Update: Yoshi found out that someone reviewed yoshi's hack on youtube. Unfortunately, he gave yoshi's hack a D+. It turns out that there were some flaws that yoshi didn't notice. However, that won't stop yoshi from improving the hack. Yoshi just made a new version of the hack that fixes most of the flaws mentioned in that video, and, as a bonus, an extra level. Yoshi has a question though. If you make a new version of a hack, how do you get rid of the old one so that there isn't two versions of the same hack on the site?

In the description of the hack just put:

Note to mods: If this version is approved, please remove the previous version and wipe this message from the description.

Or something along those lines.

Thank you for that tip Bob Righter. Yoshi just submitted a new version (not a new demo) of yoshi's hack. This version fixes several flaws that were in the original version. All the changes are listed in the readme that comes with the hack. Yoshi finnally learned how to post pictures in this thread. So here they are:


Do not flip your computer monitor, the terrain in this level is supposed to look upside down.
Alternate caption: (Help! I've risen and can't get down!)


The new and improved Lava cavern, now with a visible ceiling, bats, and lava that is less flat.


Deadly Soda, yoshi, and many enemies oh my!


An item shop, hold the cement blocks.

Really nice, the item shop is better then before, and i liked the upside down level, nice work.

Not bad. I think Yoshi did a good job on the item shop, although I think Yoshi should have a price on the items.
I also like the upside sown level Yoshi made, but I feel Yoshi ripped this idea from The Cookie Crisis.
It looks OK, but Yoshi could put more effort into making new palettes for Yoshi's hack.

And stop talking in third person. It is REALLY annoying.
Actually Scrooge, there are prices listed for the items in the item shop. That is what the message block is for, but if you must know the prices here: mushrooms are 10 coins, flowers are 30 coins, and feathers are 50 coins. The item shop is also the only place to get feathers. As for the upside down level, yoshi has never heard of or played Cookie Crisis. The hacks yoshi has played are:

-Mario's Keytastrophe (One of the best hacks I've played)
-Mario's Amazing Adventure
-Super Mario Infinity
-Super Demo World: The legend Continues
-Chaos Complexx (That was a funny hack)
-The Second Reality Project Reloaded
-Evil Maze
-Super Mario World Master Quest
-Yoshi-Dawn of Darkness Demo
-Item Abuse (That hack is the only hack not found on this site)

If yoshi gets inspired to do something in Super Mario World Custom 2 from another hack. It is most likely going to come from one of the above hacks (probably not Item Abuse, though)

(As for your last comment, I am not trying to annoy anyone. I already said why I chose to write this way in an earlier post. I am being careful with what I write outside of parenthesis, so that it isn't confusing to read. Here is an example of something I won't write outside of parenthesis: "Yoshi thinks yoshi is cool." Am I talking about yoshis in general or am I refering to myself? If I were to write something like that, I would write it in parenthesis like this: "I think yoshi is cool" or "I think I am a cool person." If I write something that would be too hard to understand in third person, then I will write it in first person inside of parenthesis, like I am doing right now.)

Update: Yoshi just discovered that yoshi made a huge mistake with version 1.1 of yoshi's hack. Yoshi forgot to move mario's sprite off of the test map. That map is where yoshi tests new levels before giving players access to them.. Yoshi is so sorry to anyone who downloaded version 1.1 of yoshi's hack. Please do not download the hack until version 1.2 is up.

Update: Yoshi just submitted v1.2 of yoshi's hack. Which fixes the fatal flaw and a couple other things. From now on, yoshi will start a new file and play through the whole hack before submitting it, even if yoshi has already tested all the levels, just to see if mario goes to the test map. Yoshi is still very sorry for that and yoshi will make sure it never happens again. If any of the moderators are reading this, go right ahead and nuke the original version and v1.1 of yoshi's hack. V1.2 has all the updates v1.1 has, but without the fatal flaw v1.1 had.

Edit: A moderator has just deleted the original and v1.1 of yoshi's hack. So now, only v1.2 should be available.

Yoshi bets that whoever played v1.1 of yoshi's hack found out that there was something wrong once they got to the overworld. After the intro you would see this:



This is the test map for yoshi's hack where yoshi tested levels before switching to the Star Road map. Yoshi didn't notice that Mario would be taken here after the intro because yoshi used a saved game to test out the levels (That saved game took Mario to the Star Road map. If I were to start a new game in v1.1, Mario would have been taken to the test map instead.) Yoshi doesn't plan on making a new version until yoshi has made at least four worlds and has planned out the overworld. Yoshi will continue posting updates on it here, though. Don't forget to comment on the hack, though. Yoshi will read every one to find out what works and what doesn't.

GoldenSonic doesn't see anything about the hack that particulary interests him. Except for the upside-down level. GoldenSonic likes gimmicks like that.
Good fucking bye.
Yoshi has been thinking of new level ideas. While some are straightfoward like some of the ones already in the hack, others are going to be more interesting. One level idea yoshi had was for a level with the main mechanic from either The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages or The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. In that level, you must travel between 2-4 different levels (The number of levels depends on which game I choose) to make it to the goal. Yoshi also has an idea for a level made entirely out of switch blocks. So, depending on which switch palaces you visit, it changes the layout of the level. Some parts become harder, while others become easier. Yoshi will make sure that level can't be reached unless you activate a certain switch palace, though.

No matter what yoshi comes up with, you can be sure that yoshi will glue together most of the things Cutoffness Man cuts and that all floating munchers will be sprayed with pesticide and removed.
