Super Marisa World FUSION (working title)

[TrinitroMan]

Hello everyone, TrinitroMan is here once again, and this time, I'm working on another Mario fangame, but this time, on Hello Engine 5.1!
Here are some screenies:





Also, here is what I have done so far:
Multi character system: 100%
-Marisa: 99%
-Alice: 0%
-???: 0%
NPC system: 80% (there's a serious bug)
SMB2 enemies (including bosses): 85% (needs StiltGuy, FryGuy and bug fixes on Albatoss)
Super Item System: 0%
Subspace System: 50%

And here is the world list:
W1: Mushroom Kingdom

(click to show/hide)

World 1-2 (Nipper Nitpicks): 90% (still need to code the wandering nipperplant)
World 1-3 (Brick Break): 90% (almost there)
World 1-4 (Goomba Underground): 95% (completely revamped, main level design completed, needs bug fix on NPC and bonus rooms)
Toad Town: ??%
World 1-Fort (Fort Koopa): 60% (level design mostly completed)

Currently, the team consists of three people:
-TrinitroMan (coding and level design)
-EvilMariobot (Touhou Major Characters spriting)
-Kirbio (Touhou Minor Characters (enemies) spriting and hopefully Sphere Doomer)

EDIT:Okay, first poll is up. Which suit should be Marisa's "Fire Flower"-typed Super Item? There are two options:
-Reimu: There are several reasons, why I choose that as an option:
1. Albeit NOT being a fire-typed Touhou character, she has as a fire-typed spellcard as her only elemental attack (characters like Patchouli and Mima have multiple elemental attacks). The Fantasy Orb is basically Reimu shooting 6 explosive mulitcolored fireballs.
2. Marisa had a Reimu suit in New Super Marisa Land.
With that suit, Marisa can do Reimu's trademark Spell Card "Fantasy Orb", which are basically 6 multicolored fire orbs, that fly onto enemies and explode on impact.

-Yuki: http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Yuki
Together with Mai, she is the boss of the Fourth Stage of Mystical Square (thanks goes to Vaike at Super Mario Boards for giving me the idea). That could work too, because:
1. She IS a fire-typed Touhou character
2. She bears a strong resemblance with Marisa, allowing me to just recolor the Marisa sprite for that suit.
With that suit, Marisa can do Yuki's last Spellcard, which will here function like Reimu's Fantasy Orb, but with normal fire orbs instead of multicolored ones.

Eitherway, this poll will last 5 days. Until then, happy voting!

You do plan on modifying the engine to make it feel more unique than most other Hello Engine-made fangames, yes?

Yep, and you will notice, that many ideas came from Kirby's Return to Dreamland, such as super power-ups and the subspace emmisary, but in the style of the Mario games.
It will also contain a health system and 3 playable characters (??????, ????? and ?????).

I think you may need to give up a bit more information on this game if you want to encourage potential volunteers.

I would, but I can't say out in the open, who will be playable, since I don't have the required sprites...
...however, I could PM you, who needs to be sprited, but you have to keep it like a secret to everyone else.
EDIT: Maybe I don't have the needed sprites but I already started to make some anim seperations, having a idle anim, a walk anim, a spin anim and a warp anim (originally, the idle anim & walk anim and the spin anim & warp anim were 1 anim each, now they're 2 anims each).

Very well; PM me, and if I'm interested, I'll consider helping.

[TrinitroMan]

Updated the first post.
Also, I have asked 3 spriters (NoBody, EvilMariobot and WhiteRoseBrian), and here are my results:
NoBody: Doesn't make commisions. Nope.
EvilMariobot: Busy at the moment with his other projects, though he said, that he thinks about helping me...
WhiteRoseBrian: Busy at the moment with school. I really can understand that.

So, if anyone else wants to help me with spriting, I have a new idea.
Since I currently need sprites of the Sphere Doomer from "Kirby's Return to Dreamland" as well, you can already start sending me your versions of a 2D Sphere Doomer. The spriter with the best 2D Sphere Doomer will be the enemy spriter then (since I'm splitting up the sprite work into character/boss/NPC sprites, enemy sprites and misc. sprites).

[TrinitroMan]

Updates, guy.
First of, I finally could get the skin mod to work correctly. At the moment, it's about 95% completed, since there are still glitches with question blocks, that contain multiple coins.
I also started to work on Toad Town, though I can't really say, how the process is...
...also, I'm still looking for a spriter, so if someone wants to sprite, PM me please.

[TrinitroMan]

Sorry to bump, but I 've got an anouncement:
I need sprites for the main character, and until I don't get them, I can't work on my game, since I've got tired of seeing Mario all the time...
...so please, PM me with a sample sprite, if you want to sprite.
And until then, this project is STOPPED.
EDIT:
Okay, I got a message from Metalsonic20. He seems to be willing to sprite. His work is actually good:

So yeah, I could probably finally announce the name of the project soon.

[TrinitroMan]

Sorry to bump, but I'm officially searching for new spriters, since MetalSonic can't make sprites because of RL problems...
...if someone is willing to do sprites for my project, then PLEASE, send me a PM with your example work.
As long, as I don't have the player sprites, I can't continue my project...
...so please, help me.

[TrinitroMan]

Sorry to bump, but I got good news.
EvilMariobot is willing to help.
However, I only say that now, because I also wanted to note, that I started to study SMFR's NPC dialogue system.
I can already see, that I have to keep the text external to make it work properly. I hope, it isn't a big problem, though.
At least, I already have the needed sounds and sprites for the dialogue system itself already, so I only need to study the code further and the actual NPCs.

[TrinitroMan]

UPDATE, the big one.
Thanks to EvilMariobot and his awesome spriting skills, there's some GIGA-progress there. Just see the first post for all informations.

So now this is SMB x Touhou fangame right?
I love Touhou and Mario too!Now my dream has come true!
I didn't believe myself that I haven't checked this thread before that you need a spriter.
I am spriter too.So,Can I help you with enemy spriting?

About the game itself, it is actually an attempt to make a Mario-styled Touhou game, that is a lot better then Super Marisa World or even Super Marisa Land (Super Marisa Land is the worst Touhou game, by the way). I made it a crossover, when I actually started to work on it.
In terms of spriting, I would like to see every minor MegaMari enemy and Kirby's Shpere Doomer converted into SMB3AS style.
I hope, you can do it, since I actually remember, that your enemy sprite work is decent.

If the reserve item box won't be used for anything, perhaps the health meter could be supplanted to it to streamline the HUD. Or, if it is, move it to where the "World 1" is.
