| Boo. I do not approve of these cape capers. Power based shortcut, indeed-- I seriously doubt you have levels where the fireballs are so much more useful than the cape. The cape is the cruel tyrannical god of Super Mario World powerups.
You have convinced me; I must find some way to delete the cape and replace it with a decent powerup. No, not the racoon tail. A decent, new powerup. I suggest you start suggesting, Kyouji. You're good at coming up with ideas that aren't terribly bad, right? As for the hack download itself, I can only assume it'll be sweet. I mean, it's Kyouji's hack. I can't see it being otherwise. More useful feedback after I play it. Edit: Okay, done. I gotta say, after playing this, I lote you a little. The spikes in Dark Mausoleum are extremely nasty. It's one thing to have extreme difficulty like that part did, but it's quite another when you make an instant jump from fairily easy to rather hard and then jump right back again for the second half of the level and all following levels. That's the second half of the lote. On the other hand, I strongly believe seeing the ingenuity and design of the Aquaria Boo battle would have made me cry were I not a heartless monster. I would never have thought that up. (edited by Glyph Phoenix on 04-21-06 06:02 AM) |

| ... As a random example, the koopalings are all easier with the fireballs. It's only relevant against the one in castle 5, but still.
By the by, world 6 is done, almost not on time. I'm releasing a limited demo among a select few for bugfixing. I'm fairly certain I can do five levels (six if you count the switch palace, which you SHOULDN'T) in one month minus one day, so yeah, I just might make the final demo by the end of the month... And then at the end of July all the levels should be done, and the bugfixes for what comes up there will likely be solved in very early August. Which means the full hack will likely be out in august. Edit at a really ungodly hour: Because you probably want screenshots, here. 
Chocodes overworld area.

| Chocodes 1 and 2 have sucky palettes. Sickly green was fine at first, but now it's just ridiculous. USE NEW PALETTES. I don't care whether you use custom palettes, use another regular palette slot, or what, but that's too much puke green, dammit! | |||

'hoy! I bet this is one thread you didn't think you'd see again. World 7 is done, mostly. I still haven't gotten around to fixing Secret 6, and I haven't... Made Secret 7. I'm pushing back the schedule to give me time to fix/make. No new demo, but yes new content. Sorta.
Chocodes road now has its own palette. 
This is an overworld submap. 
This is a level that isn't really worth mentioning at all. 
This is also an overworld submap, but this one isn't quite done and still needs some tweaking. I figure stuff on the left and right couldn't hurt. Mostly the left. (edited by Alastor the Stylish on 06-01-06 09:03 PM) (edited by Alastor the Stylish on 06-01-06 09:04 PM) |

Nice tileset  The second screenshot seems a little bland though, but thats just me.
Ooooh, pretty. The new Ghost House tile is sweet  . I don't like the way you make the paths go to the pipes though....it just seems....cut off, in away. Again, my opinion, most people may think otherwise.
Nice...the cave tileset looks bumpy now 
Wow....this OW is awesome. The name is kickass too....Ectopolis. I hope you add a few more levels to it though, but I think you will since you said the left and right need to be tweaked. So you're almost done this hack by the looks of it...great job, and great screenies. I look forward to it |

This is actually quite nice.
This background. I do not like. Pity, since the cave FG pwns.
That overworld is win. And the name kicks total ass. "Ectopolis, the City of Ghosts." Awesome. This is proof that you can make a good hack while still preserving most of the original graphics and backdrops. |

Originally posted by Alastor the Stylish The grey doesn't work too well with the doorway above the castle, at least in my eyes. It seems a bit too bright. The cave background seems a bit too bright, also. That one's more passable, though; the color choice just seems a bit odd. Otherwise, the screenshots look nice, as usual. What the others said about Ectopolis is true, too. Awesome name. |

I have to use the same palette for Ectopolis and Blaze Caverns, though. I'd rather have it look differently myself  |

cpubasic13 I'm ahead of myself... Wait...  Since: 11-17-05 From: Citra, Fl. Last post: 6310 days Last view: 6309 days |

| PROGRESS!
I don't see anything that is worth bringing up from those screens. The overworlds are neat (could be improved a bit) and the little palette change in the Blaze Caverns level is a nice touch. Can't wait for the whole thing now. It has been showing some good progress. |

| Well, even though you cant have seperate palettes, you could darken the door in Blaze Caverns. One other thing I didnt notice in all the screenshots until now for some reaosn. The new font is great, but the color for "MARIO" seems a bit too dark. It clashes with some backgrounds. I would suggest making it a bit brighter. | |||

| My apologies for the imprecision of my language. The background that I was complaining about was actually the one in this screenshot:
Also, the only problem I have with the submap itself is the doorway above the castle, which seems to need a black outline. It looks weird just a flat shade of grey. (Also, every other graphic besides Mario has a black outline. It doesn't fit in.) |

I played this last night. I seriously thought I was playing NSMB for a minute there. 
The level design is some of the best I've seen, and the new boss battles are especially welcome. |

I will spoil nothing |

I think I patched something wrong; this has happened before to me, but the OW path mario walks is screwy, like this:
What'd I do wrong? |
