Brainstorming Thread, This topic has absolutely NO priority!!

I just think this is worth mentioning...

Both the Mario and Yoshi sheets are on tSR, if it matters.

:O

Aren't they not supposed to be there?

Well, the point is thar none of the sprites should be used outside of this project.
And considering how much traffic tSR gets...

Well that just sucks

There should be secret places only accessable to a certain player.

Well, that's sort of a given.

Waluigi can throw bombs.

Seeing how Mario and Luigi are the jumping part of the team and Wario is the attacking, why not have Waluigi join Wario?

Plus, if Wario is the close-combat fighter, Waluigi could have projectiles (such as bob-ombs)

Well, they would have to have a certain time that you could throw them, like only have 2 out at a time, and make the blast radiai small.

This makes sense, but it kinda makes Wario's move useless.
I mean, Wario covers a short area and attacks, and Waluigi would cover a large area and attack. It makes Wario's move almost meaningless.

However, if we did something like, give Wario more life than other characters, or something like that that balances it out, it could work.

Wario could have more power and speed in his charge then Waluigi's bombs.

This. Wario would be way faster with his attack, as it hits immediately.
Wario would be able to jump while doing his charge, while bombs would only explode on the floor.
Bombs however would be able to destroy blocks on the floor which Wario's charge can't do.

So I guess Bombs and Charge are different enough here.

So is it settled?

Waluigi gets bombs?

While bombs seem to be the best solution for me, I wouldn't consider it "settled" yet. But we'll get to that settlement.

Definatly vouching for bomb-ombs, Thanks, dearest Black Squirrel! as well, though it's a bit late. Was waiting for this to actually get going and get the forum up and everything.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
If you still have suggestions on the storyline, you can suggest and discuss them here until a more in-depth discussion topic emerges.

Only thing I can ask is skipable cutscene. There's nothing I hate as much as non-skipable cutscenes.

granted.

What about blocks with a picture of an enemy on them and you need to kill all those enemies in the level before you can move on(It could be used for accessing secret areas when the enemies are hidden in different parts of the level).

This. Waluigi could be useful in fights against enemies you don't want to get close too.

EXAMPLE: There is a pool of lava surrounding a Lava Pirahna. You throw Bombs from a ledge at the pirahna at it's weak spot (when it's revealed), or wait for a platform to float by to do physical attacks. Bombs take out the risk of falling into lava and dying, at the cost of reliability.

I think the bomb-throwing idea is good for Waluigi. It may mean, therefore, that the bosses' strategies differ depending on whether they face the Mario Bros. or the Wario Bros.
