| Before we get started, I'd like to say congrats to Saturn for getting in second place, and Noone, Black Boo, Soiyeruda, and Fez for getting into the Now for the more important stuff, the theme. I had a little trouble thinking of one, tbh. Luckily, Fez PMed me an idea... So, you might or might not have heard of Flipiberke's famous fangame, http://www.mfgg.net/index.php?act=resdb¶m=02&c=2&id=6842. As the name implies, it's a remake of the classic YvsB minigame from Super Mario Bros. Deluxe for the Game Boy Color. It had various add-ons and gimmicks and extra modes and all that jazz to make it look better than ever! Hey, speaking of minigame rehashes, do you know how many Mario Bros. remakes (Mario Bros. VS, Mario Bros. DX, etc) people are making here nowadays? Even though the aforementioned examples were enhanced versions of their original forms, they still stuck to the main concept of the game. I'm saying all of this, because the theme for this compo is... Minigame Remakes! RULES: - The minigames must be enhanced versions of existing minigames from the Mario universe (that means Yoshi and Wario are included), like Wanted (Super Mario 64 DS), or Mansion Patrol (Super Paper Mario), or even any of the Mario Party minigames. - You can add as many new material to the minigames as you wish, but don't go overboard! - Make the new content fresh, creative, and exciting. Not just something like a Mario Bros. clone with more enemies. Come on, you can do something better than that. - Most of all, make sure that your revamped minigames has similar gameplay and objectives as the original. NOTE: The deadline has been bumped up to October 23rd, so get your entries in before then. And if anyone thinks this is a terrible idea, |

| I'll do NSMB Multiplayer Minigame: Yoshi's Snowball Fight. I just have to think about what to put in it. Online Mode? Singeplayer? |
| Posted by: Sergeant DeeY Oct 3 2009, 11:47 AM |
| Hmmm, sounds cool... I might enter! |
| Posted by: Thingy Oct 3 2009, 12:48 PM |
| This sounds cool, but I can't think of any minigames that don't suck. |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 3 2009, 12:50 PM | ||
Maybe you can find a way to make them not suck, in your opinion? |
| Posted by: Alex Oct 3 2009, 01:15 PM | ||
It wouldn't be too hard to port the thread to new MFGG. I'll maybe join. If I get time. |
| Posted by: MegaTailzChao Oct 3 2009, 01:40 PM |
| Oh boy, this sounds like it'll be interesting! Time to scrounge around for clever ideas~ |

| Stickyado? |
| Posted by: Black Boo Oct 3 2009, 02:48 PM |
| Hmm...this could be interestig... Maybe I'll try the Shell Slam minigame, That could be fun, though I'm not exactly sure what to add...it's just...simple. *whips out DS to browse minigames* Ooh maybe I'll do the Bob-omb Squad minigame...this will be fuuuuuuun... |
| Posted by: Pikax Oct 3 2009, 04:21 PM |
| Let's see if I can fit something in around my schoolwork this time. EDIT: Nope, I don't think I will be able to, and I don't think I'll be able to make any more games until after Christmas. |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 3 2009, 05:48 PM |
| I'll go ahead and remake the Cardiators minigame from Mario Party 8 then. :S (The one where players choose cards to damage each other. Obviously though, I'll try and make it far more interesting.) |
| Posted by: YForce 0X Oct 3 2009, 10:43 PM |
| I liked that one minigame from Yoshi's Island where you bounce the ball back and forth from Yoshi and Bandit. I'll make it if I can. |
| Posted by: YoManRuLz Oct 4 2009, 10:15 AM |
| hmm... possibly the one in nsmb, where you bounce 3 marios on shyguys... p.s. Is a newer game with old school sprites "legal"? |
| Posted by: Miaxis Oct 4 2009, 02:37 PM |
| Would the boss minigames from Mario Party qualify? If yes, I'll probably enter. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Oct 4 2009, 02:50 PM |
| Hmm...either that or one of the minigames from ML:BIS, like the Jump Helmet game in the Challenge Node. |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 4 2009, 02:59 PM |
| TOO LATE! http://archive.mfgg.net/index.php?showtopic=251505 Sorry, Black Boo. |
| Posted by: Sergeant DeeY Oct 4 2009, 03:02 PM |
| NVM, Tryin' another one |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 4 2009, 03:15 PM | ||||
The example I mentioned in my first post fits exactly what you're asking, so yes.
Yes, the MP boss minigames are allowed. |
| Posted by: Sploder Oct 5 2009, 11:47 AM |
| October 16? That seems a bit short. |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 5 2009, 01:56 PM | ||
At the time I started this compo, it was roughly two weeks from then until that date. I'll make extensions if necessary. |
| Posted by: Fez Oct 5 2009, 05:10 PM | ||
I think minigame compos are usually 3 weeks. |
| Posted by: Guinea Oct 6 2009, 01:45 AM |
| My suggestion for the deadline is to be so, that the next competition takes place after NCFC. So when NCFC starts on October 26, the MGC has to end 3 days before, so the voting can be done aswell. If that is a bit longer than usual, no problem. Maybe we get some even better games then |
| Posted by: Pikax Oct 6 2009, 11:41 AM |
| OK, I'm gonna see if I can make a souped-up version of Mario's Slides from Super Mario 64 DS/Wario's Ladder from Wario: Master of Disguise. |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 6 2009, 04:33 PM |
| Excellent, a comp I'm finally able to do! |
| Posted by: YoManRuLz Oct 6 2009, 08:15 PM |
| I change my mind. I don't think I'll enter this one...want to get a project demoed before halloween |
| Posted by: Funky Oct 7 2009, 12:29 PM |
| So is it allowed to remake YouVSboo or is that just lame |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 9 2009, 04:15 PM |
| I had a beautiful idea. There's still a week... can I make it in time? |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 9 2009, 04:49 PM | ||
The time isn't necessarily concrete yet, since the original date was only two weeks (which for some people, isn't adequate time.) |
| Posted by: Mario_6464SMR Oct 10 2009, 05:16 PM |
| there only a week left but i'll enter! |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 10 2009, 06:10 PM | ||
It'll probably be extended an extra week so no need to rush. :S |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous Oct 11 2009, 03:02 PM |
| OMYGOODNESSENTERINGENTERINGENTERING I'm gonna go ahead and remake Apple Attack from warioware:twisted |

| Eh. I might drop out. It's a bit hard for me to find the right graphics and such, and I've lost nearly all motive. |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 12 2009, 09:27 AM | ||
wait, were we supposed to post a beta by now??? |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous Oct 12 2009, 09:30 AM | ||
No but some people like to show their progress. |
| Posted by: Alex Oct 12 2009, 09:30 AM | ||
You don't have to post a beta/demo at all. Only make sure that you have a playable version of the game before voting starts |

| If the voting date is changed, I may have a chance to finish this. |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 15 2009, 08:43 PM |
| Alright guys, here we go! http://archive.mfgg.net/index.php?showtopic=252469 |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 15 2009, 09:50 PM |
| My entry is on the verge of being ready! |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 15 2009, 10:38 PM |
| http://www.filesend.net/download.php?f=8cbe3977699514a2e5b0c6b1cd5237be This turned out for the best. My entry coulda been better, but I lacked time. Anyways, enjoy. |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 16 2009, 02:29 PM |
| Voting time...? |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 16 2009, 02:40 PM |
| Hmm... not many people are finished. Do you all think I should extend this? |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Oct 16 2009, 02:51 PM |
| Personally, no. If people can't keep a deadline, it's their fault. We shouldn't constantly postpone compos just because people expect it. They've got to learn the hard way. |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 16 2009, 03:43 PM |
| If the time limit is extended, I have a few things I'd like to add.If it isn't going to, we'll have to settle with what I posted a few posts ago. |
| Posted by: Pikax Oct 16 2009, 04:16 PM | ||
So is this going to happen or not? |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 16 2009, 05:37 PM | ||
To be fair though, two weeks is a bit shorter than usual. Still, I can agree it doesn't need to be extended for a week. At most, maybe 2-3 days. |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 16 2009, 06:09 PM |
| Okay, so I touched my entry up a little, and since voting hasn't started I figured I could post it. *INSERT DOWNLOAD HERE, I WILL EDIT THIS POST WITH THE DOWNLOAD LINK IN THIS EXACT SPOT LATER* |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 18 2009, 12:47 PM |
| Do I have to wait till the contest is done to post the game on the site? |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 18 2009, 12:50 PM |
| I dunno. Also, WHENS VOTING?! |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 18 2009, 03:46 PM |
| I'd like to know that too... Yoshbert, is the comp extended or over now? |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Oct 18 2009, 03:50 PM | ||
No. |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 18 2009, 05:45 PM | ||
I was using Guinea's suggestion, btw. |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 18 2009, 06:49 PM |
| Oh, god I know I'm gonna sound like a noob for asking, but what is this NCFC thing? Sorry if it's a stupid question... |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 19 2009, 05:18 AM | ||
So October 22th? EDIT: Too abysmally lazy to complete it, so here's what I have done. http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?kzmlytjl1xm |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 23 2009, 07:09 AM | ||
No offense, but that is a little boring. Also,when you run outta HP, you start getting it back when the foes attack you again. (Chain chomp healed me by 8 hp!) |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 23 2009, 07:26 AM | ||||
The boring bit: In a sense, I guess it's a bit boring because I picked an awkward minigame to remake to begin with. The original minigame from Mario Party 8 (called Cardiators) was more or less, a matter of luck, in that whoever got the better cards would obviously win. You just select cards from a table, and watch the monster attack the other player. No true gameplay. For the most part, my main intention with this was trying to actually set up an RPG-styled battle system, which required learning a new set of functions. The fact it even came out the way it did was a bit of an accomplishment to me. :S But yeah, unless it's something like Alteil, I find most card games boring to begin with, so meh. So yeah, no offense taken; just understand that I had to use some advanced GML to make it work. When you run outta HP bit:
So like the edit said, too lazy to edit, though I could probably fix it within 30 minutes or less. >.> |
| Posted by: OniLink10 Oct 23 2009, 02:08 PM | ||
Is it bad that I'm just getting the endless animation of Mario and Luigi? Wait a minute, what was this written in? Game Maker 6? Game Maker 7? |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 23 2009, 02:33 PM | ||||
By lazy, I thought you meant the animation and all of the species and sounds and stuff. sorry. EDIT: also, I thought it was voting today. S: |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Oct 23 2009, 02:34 PM |
| Voting begins tomorrow! Get your speedos on, boyos. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 23 2009, 02:42 PM |
| Oh boy, I might go and make a game in a few hours just to give the people who tried hard at their entries more "competition" Yeah I'll do that (and I literally mean a few hours, going to buy Borderlands soon and there's no way I'm coding if that shit is in my grasp) |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 23 2009, 04:01 PM |
| Oh thank goodness, an extra day. I've been extremely busy with school for the past week, so I haven't been able to get anything done. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 23 2009, 04:28 PM |
| Totally can't think of a game to do. Quick someone give me a list so I can pick randomly or just tell me a game to do and I'll totally do it. |
| Posted by: mirror Oct 23 2009, 04:50 PM | ||
Greenhouse. Those Super Mario Land 2 minigames at the end of the levels. Shy Guy says. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 23 2009, 05:09 PM |
| Shy Guy Says it is. Except he tears you the fuck apart if you get it wrong. Expect trippyness. EDIT: Like halfway done, most of the GFX are in place, recorded some weird guitar music, just need to code the gameplay now. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 23 2009, 09:10 PM |
| http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?cqzqdnyjzhw my submission, hope it's not too late. The game's a remake of fire from game&watch. I will probably make this a full game later on. Hope you all like it. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 23 2009, 09:14 PM | ||
You'll excuse me for just not wanting to download an exe from a 1 post member, I'll wait for someone more daring to try it out. |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 23 2009, 09:22 PM |
| I decided to toss in a little humor into my game, I'll post my final final final entry soon. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 23 2009, 10:00 PM |
| So I basically just fucked up and lost half my work. Fuck ![]() But here's a screenshot. |

| Shyguy is holding a competition in his basement, he The Guests ![]() ![]() ![]() The Host Shyguy is, unfortunately, easily upset, he doesn't like it when his guests don't perform well at his game ![]() The Consequences So play well my friends, or Shyguy just might get upset and deduct several points from your score. ![]() ![]() ![]() Working out some bugs and I'll post it. Yes the graphics are supposed to be awful, but hey, I made my own graphics for a Minigame comp, that doesn't happen much. Also I can't stay awake, I'll post the game tomorrow, which will be totally valid since nobody specified a time. All I saw was "tomorrow" so I'll assume that means any time during the day. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 08:35 AM | ||
I understand but I don't excuse. This is my first time competing in one of these, so how am I supposed to gain popularity as a programmer if nobody will try my games? I can understand what you're saying but I can't excuse it. Judging for this contest prior to playing all the submissions is prejudice, which I cant excuse. I hope someone more daring does come along so you can actually know whether you like like my game or not. |
| Posted by: Pikax Oct 24 2009, 08:40 AM |
| Well I was going to enter, but I couldn't get anything other than the basics working so I'm definitely out. Also, I tried FutureShock9's game and it wasn't that good. It felt like a rushed job. |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 24 2009, 08:42 AM | ||
For the most part, most people don't actually vote until they've tried all available entries. Whether you're a new member or not isn't really an issue, so you shouldn't dwell on it, unless it's blatantly obvious that people are biasly voting for other entries simply because their creators are known to have experience. In any case, out of respect for you, I'll give the game a try and give you my opinion on it. EDIT: Tried it. sorta what Pikax said, it feels rushed. However, it shows that you do have some skill, so don't get too down about this. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 09:04 AM | ||
It's short for Mario community fan-game convention. It's an online convention of Mario fan-games (that was kind of obvious by the name). Noobs need someone to explain this stuff. That's how stop they being noobs. Congratulations, you're not quite as much of a noob! |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 24 2009, 09:08 AM | ||||
Actually, it's short for Nintendo Community Fangame Convention (hence NCFC, not MCFC). Taken from the site:
So yeah, not exactly limited to Mario fan games. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 09:10 AM | ||
Thanks, I found out about the contest with only a week left to make the game, so I can understand why it would feel rushed. Hope i can get started on the next comp. early on and take my time with it. |
| Posted by: darkfool99 Oct 24 2009, 09:59 AM | ||
Thanks to both of you! |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 11:52 AM | ||
thanks, i wasn't paying a whole lot of attention when i posted that, not that there was a significant difference in meaning anyway. |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 24 2009, 12:11 PM |
| Im certain that today was voting. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 12:18 PM | ||
It was supposed to be, but i don't know how to vote, this is the first comp I've done. Can someone explain how this works? |
| Posted by: mrmario Oct 24 2009, 12:37 PM | ||
The comp creator has to start a topic for voting. And then you vote for one of the entrants in that topic by posting a username. For instance, if you wanted to vote for my game Wario Golfing, you'd make a post saying mrmario. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 24 2009, 01:03 PM |
| We haven't even done top yet, so no topics until after that. Plus I'm not done with mine yet. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 01:04 PM | ||
thanks, but yoshbert hasn't started it yet, so i guess we just wait until he does. |
| Posted by: Weston404 Oct 24 2009, 01:04 PM |
| Anyone who hasn't finish should take advantage of this extra time. I don't gotta worry about my entry, at least. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 24 2009, 02:42 PM |

| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 29 2009, 10:54 AM | ||
Yeah, It's been almost a week now. If final voting should start now, here are the top five entrants: Mecha the Slag - Game & Watch Turtle Bridge Weston404 - Blooper Surfing Soiyeruda - Cardiators Darkfool99 - Sneak 'n Snore Futureshock9 - Game & Watch Fire Also are you allowed to vote for yourself in these? |
| Posted by: Soiyeruda Oct 29 2009, 03:41 PM | ||||
At most, you should only really need to do it twice, as it gets redundant having to see an updated score count after every vote.
No. And I believe doing so would get you banned from these competitions as well. |
| Posted by: FutureShock9 Oct 29 2009, 05:34 PM | ||
Ok, then, I won't do these as often And that's good to know so that I don't get banned from the compos. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Oct 29 2009, 10:07 PM |
| Would somebody PLEASE make the final voting topic already, or I'll have to do it because I want to get the next one up and running. EDIT: Screw it, Futureshock isn't on, and if you think about it it hardly matters WHO starts the voting topic. So yeah, doing it now. |
