TL;DR: Download the Epic Racers beta patch here (to be applied on a headerless US Super Mario Kart ROM).
Very outdated screenshots here Hi guys. This is something I've wanted to do for a while now. I'd like to take a moment to officially put an end to Epic Racers, my Super Mario Kart hack project. Sorry to everyone who's been looking forward to it. Captain's log:
Now, I can't find it in me to finish this project alone. The reasons:
Here's the latest Epic Racers patch (to be applied on a headerless US SMK ROM). Feel free to do anything you want with it. If someone feels like finishing the hack, be my guest (if you're serious about it, I can help). What's missing: good tracks, mainly, as well as some polishing (some unchanged graphics, a few broken color palettes etc). New musics would have been nice, too. If I had to describe Epic Racers as it is now, I'd say it's eye candy with poor gameplay. In closing:

Posted by gridatttack Oops. Thought I tested it. Fixed. This board doesn't like spaces in URLs. Posted by gridatttack Matter of perspective. Can you really say you've made your own game? But platformers are more generic, so the source is less obvious. |

Stifu, just wondering, would you endorse anyone who would try to finish the project for you?
I'm not going to (no PC plus I am a computer noob), but just wondering on anyone else's behalf. Great to hear from you after a while but sad to hear the news... For SMW, kind of a point, just look at Kaizo hacks, KMW was the first and original of its kind and probably the best. Also a really well known genre of hack which has spread to other games hacking! ____________________ Jamie Dignam |

Posted by Termingamer2-JD Well, that's pretty much what I said: Posted by Stifu Or you can just rip anything you like and include it in your own project. If so, credits would be nice. |

Whoops. I missed that part of the post, but did read the rest of it.
Thanks for letting us use the resources you've provided over the years, by the way. ____________________ Jamie Dignam |

I respect your decision, Stifu. Maybe someone at RHDN might wanna complete this hack if you feel like posting this over there. I just tried this hack out, it's really cool and I like the characters a lot, they're very smooth.
I also like the game you're working on, I wish I could make a game with my cartoon characters. Making a game from scratch looks really hard. ____________________ My Linktree |

Posted by Googie Probably, since that place has much more traffic than this one. But I don't feel comfortable posting it there, since I've never been there. Don't wanna just join and be like "Hi guys, let me dump my failure of a project here!" Posted by Googie Thanks. Spent a lot of time on them. Posted by Googie Cool. There are 3 of us working on it. Don Miguel is our programmer (the guy who translated RPG Maker 95 and 2000, among other things). I can code too, but I decided I'd only take care of the graphics (which is a lot of work already). Posted by Googie Sounds like Cuphead, which looks great. |

OMG I'm dying for Cuphead to get released, that game is gonna kick ass when it gets released.
I downloaded Gamemaker on Steam, I'm gonna give it a spin. ____________________ My Linktree |

Posted by Googie If it's Game Maker 8, then I can help you with certain things. If it's Game Maker Studio, though, immidiately switch to Game Maker 8. Game Maker Studio is very prone to corrupting your project files, and when that happens, it's back to square 1, and That's nooooo good! |

Posted by Trinitronity I have Gamemaker 8 Pro now and I deleted the one on Steam, just got GM8 Pro from someone on You Tube, thanks for the offer I really appreciate it. ____________________ My Linktree |

I'm going to ask GamesWithIsaac from here and my website if he can help you, he's got an Asteroids Remastered project that looks decent that he's posted on both sites.
Hopefully he can help. Also, I have a computer again, so should be able to beta test some NES hacks should you want me to. Just gotta see if I still have my ROM collection and I will help. (This thread is also on the board2 facebook page that I need to update more) ____________________ Jamie Dignam |

Thanks for askin' GamesWithIsaac if he can help me. I had Game Salad a while back, but I uninstalled it cause you gotta pay thirty dollars a month? No thanks... ____________________ My Linktree |
