I decided to start on my Super Maria Sisters hack once again. But I am pretty much restarting it. Since the last time I started, I have improved my spriting skills. I am also changing some things around. Not all of the enemies will be humanoid such as the pirahna plants. But more humanoid enemies like the Koopa Troopas will resemble a humanoid female. I am also redesigning how Maria looks giving her a skirt and long socks taking the idea from designs from Alice in Wonderland which inspired a lot of Super Mario Bros.

STORY so far:

Once upon a time, the Mushroom Kingdom was invaded by Queen Koopa, a dragon known for her black magic, and her army. This terrible terrapin was able to transform the quiet, peace-loving Mushroom People into mere stones, bricks, and ironically, mushrooms, in order to seat her evil self on the throne. It is said that only this son of the Mushroom Queen, Prince Toadstool, is the only one that can break the evil spell and return the inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom to their normal selves.

But the Queen of the Koopas, knowing this prophecy, kidnapped the handsome Prince and hid him in one of her castles to keep his magic handicapped and to ultimately marry Prince Toadstool in order to have absolute rule over this land and the people who reside within it.

This is when Maria and Luisa, two normal plumbers from another world got sucked into this land by a enchanted pipe. A pipe that connects the two world. A gate that could only be opened once more by Prince Toadstool who has been captured by the evil Koopa queen.

Once Maria and Luisa heard the word of the terrible plight of the Mushroom People, the two vowed to rescue the Prince, the true ruler of this kingdom from the clutches of the queen of the Koopas. Both restoring the fallen kingdom of the mushroom people from Queen Koopa’s tyrannous reign and opening their way back to the world in which they came from.

But can the two Maria sisters overcome the many obstacles facing the girls and two true heroines themselves?

***

If anyone has any ideas as to how the characters are to be designed, feel free to share them as well as any other idea for the game. I will draw designs and make screenshots as they are created. Even if there should be more to the story, suggest them.

Here is a test sprite for Maria that I drew up.



If Luisa has separate graphics, I will have to make a design for her as well.
Also I will have to think of what Prince Toadstool and Queen Koopa will look like.

Very nice sprite... nice avatar picture as well, did you draw that?

No, but I could have. Just do not have the time to make my own. ^^

when do you expect to release a demo?


No time soon. I still have to build enough to take screenshots.

I am looking into Super Princess Peach tiles. They seem to be fitting pretty well (you can't expect me to draw every single piece of graphics and get it finished ). But that is also because I never really played the game very much. So I will see how it goes.

That sprite is amazingly awesome! Are you a pixel artist?


And don't forget about Super Marisa Land. To me, Great Giana Sisters is too ugly to even mention. The cover makes me sick to look at. - _ -

Well seeing that I am drawing Maria, I suppose technically I would be a sprite artist. ^^

Here is a screen for those wondering how the game looks right now.



And I am aware that Maria is not there. ^^

I would say Splatterhouse Parts 1 and 2.

What can be better than the main hero possessing strength and life from a hell mask and busting the skulls of demonic zombies and apparitions to save your girlfriend?

I own the japanese import of the second game and I will tell you it is much better than the western release. 1. Rick's mask looks a lot more bad ass than some stupid skull. 2. The wording for the story as well as the level introductions are better worded and are in english. I have no idea why when it was brought to the west that they changed the wording to the intro. Why did they even bother to? It was english and not even mispronounces. Even better worded than the simplified western release.

I didn't like SH3 though. Cool graphics, but I didn't feel the same with it.

I would say that the Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) was my absolute favorite. There is a reason there is still movies and OVA being made 20 years later.

I have a question. Are you planning on using the ground from the Toad Jump in SPP? Because I was planning on using that as the main ground in my Super Maria Sisters game. If you are, I will have to find something else to use.
I also was thinking of using Mario Party for the overworld. Looks like you beat it to me.

Hm, it looks like something you'd find on the Game Boy Advance more than anything else. The pipes look a bit out of place with their shading being more detailed than anything else, though... these are just small criticism though, it looks pretty good overall.


Yeah the pipes look strange because of how they seem floating in that shot. They are connected to a series of pipes in the level.

I get what he means. It doesn't have to do with their position, but the appearance of the pipes themselves. They seem to have more shading than everything else in contrast. I understand this part: they're unedited from the original graphics. Just toning down the amount of shading they use can fix it.


Could have sworn my pipes were custom. In any case, I will see what I can do.

Also, that image of Maria, is it non-game or stand-still? If it's the latter, I...'ll respond first.


It is a mockup. I will use her body except for the arm positions for her still frame. I will put her arms at her sides for that. I just put her arms like that to present it better.

Sgraff, feel free to use that FG and the Mario Party OW, too.

Oh yes I am sure I can and thank you for allowing me, but I am just looking to make my hack as original as I can. So I will stick to the Toad Jump FG.

I have another idea for the OW anyhow. ^^

Thanks everyone for the compliments!
Well I decided to start sketching concept drawings for characters before drawing the sprites. Here is Maria. ^^

Cute! Do you have any design ideas for Prince Toadstool or Queen Koopa yet?

I only started on Queen Koopa last night. Though I still am thinking as to what exactly she should look. I will get to Prince Toadstool eventually as well.
Thanks.

The level graphics remind me of Kirby for GBA somewhat...

Anyway, they look cute

Keep up the good work.

People keep saying it looks like a GBA game. That is good right? ^^

Since everyone seemed to dislike the old pipes, here are some new ones. Tried to make them more simple and even cute (well... if a pipe could be cute ). Also tried a new shape.



What'cha think?

So will this be revolutionary?
Like... the first system to dispose of all masculinity to their character designs?
