the Mushroom Kingdom Haunting, everyone welcome!

Well, I was trying to make it look like a normal shy guy but with slight changes (I agree with the color changes though), and then it surprises you by changing.


Hmmm... What if, when the mask detaches, if it floated up from its shoes? Like, not with a ghost tail, but nothing at all, like it's a possesed robe or something? I was just trying to avoid making it look like an actual Boo Guy, what with the ghost tail and all.

Gosh dang it bEEtle you revealed the plot to M&L4.

This looks something like that should be in M&L...hmm.

Hey, bEEtle. Could I have permission to sprite your sketches in M&L3?

You know, Nintendo actually said to me:
"Cary we don't want you giving away this idea to the people..." and I was all like F you Nintendo *****! Then I back-handed Mayamoto! ha ha ha... naw that didn't happen... But if it did get Nintendo to start being more creative I would.

C'mon dude, How could I possibly say no to the M&L King! all I ask is that I can post the sprites on a project page later. Full credit of course.

btw HOPEFULLY by Sat or Sun I should have the rough designs for "ghoul's keep" the realm you go to when you 'soul' is stolen and locked away (which in-turn becomes how the life system works) yes, I know it sounds weird right now but I'll explain clearly in a few days!

Thanks again StarPower. I haven't talked to you in ages! I think it's literally been like 3 years. add me on MSN so we can chit-chat about this if you want. I'd love to help answer any questions you have!

And thanks to anyone else interested and thinking out there... please draw and post. It doesn't have to be an A+ look at my rough sketches, they're so tossed together.

There we go.

I'm starting to lose my passion for spriting and art in general due to recent events, but who knows, maybe one of these deceased designs can revive my currently dead hobby.

my idea of a boo that is blind.

Not bad! I think he'd fit well as a ghost that is found later in the game when more of the world is dark and new ghosts surface to the mushroom kingdom. I likes it DJ Jazzy Jazz. Keep it up.

That would be cool as a sprite I bet! *hint hint* heh heh heh.

OH man Shyguy Grey! I didn't even see your post until now! I love the new GhoulGuy Look! so cool!

That's a shame to here your art passion is fading but I garentee it'll come back sometime. It happend to me half a year ago and it was rough but it was 2 teachers that restored it and now my brain never stops imagining!

again, Awsome work!

Thats a great design jazz

Well... this didn't come out as I had hoped.




I was also trying to think up a Mario one to explain why it's up to Luigi.

I guess this would be a mini boss or something? idk.

I think the job offering I got from Nintendo was refering to that. They said they wanted a new spriter for another Mario and Luigi adventure.

Nah, that's bs lol.

And hey, they need imaginative minds like you in the gaming industry, they're starting to run out of ideas.

Yeah it's been a LONG time. :P I'm hardly on MSN but I will give you a shoutout when I am on. Btw, I hope you enjoy this:

This is what I got so far. I think it might be a bit too big after looking at it...though Wiggler is a big type of character.

Ehhhhh...

I used to be able to sprite in M&L style(s), but I guess going my long break from it has knocked me out of whack. Oh well, I have other styles I can try. All I know is that I love this guys design.

Shoot, that's really good progress after coming back from a long brake. I had to start over when I took brakes. Though, since his head is like in ice, it's gonna be quite complicated, like the outlining and stuff would be a little light and stuff. It's complicated to explain. Look at Spoilers:

ice metaboss when you can see part of his body frozen

and you'll see what I been by complicated. Also, I love that one Peach sprite you were making.

I need to make the purple lines by the eyes the same like yours, it looks better than mine.





EDIT:
OH SHOOT I ALMOST FORGOT! Remember that one sprite you wanted me to fix up for you, Shyguy Grey?(I'm not gonna say his name cause I want it to be a suprise)Are you going to continue that once we get one post done or not? Because I won't be able to work on him..I mean I can help guide you and fix errors and what not but that's about it.

Someone should make a huge ghost that spits out mini ghosts.. quick!


lol, I would love to help but I been busy with Finals and spriting with my own project.

If I have some time I would love to help out.

Actually, this is the thawed version, but thanks for giving me a subject to study for the frozen form. I might combine that with the frozen Spoilers:

Shroobs

or I may just do it like them in general.

And yeah, I can work on ______ from time to time.

Youre welcome, anytime.
And that's good, I didn't want you to give up on ______. I'd like to see ______ finished.

I made some sketches of 2 new baddies. One is a ghost version of a bomb omb and the other is the ghost that flamedragon wanted to be made. I don't have a name for it yet. Right now it's just Boolisus(it's a mix of latin words). Boolisus blows out ghost out of his vacumm like mouth after he puffs up and sucks in a bit of air. That is how he produces them, with air. He then blows out and thins out and boos come out of his mouth. It's not a boss but a very hard enemy to face since it keeps on producing more enemies. The only way you can attack it is it's belly button.

There should be hordes of Boos gathering together and forming massive behemoths composed of bones, mud, vegetation and just about whatever happens to be in the vicinity. Any creature engulfed by these rotting hulks either becomes part of their mass or later falsl off possesed, wether they were alive or dead

Wow! My Boo sprites could fit right into this!

Uh...yeah you'll have to go look at the topic.

Hello everyone! I'm new here!

A few days before I made this account, I've been watching this topic! I wish I could contribute to this! But I can't do sprites, I can only give ideas, as I'm more of an idea man. If you do accept ideas, here are some ideas for enemies and stuff:

Boo Block: When you pass a strange looking block, a Boo face will appear on it and float toward you.

Chain Boo: It's like a chain chomp, but it's tail is made of embers, making it more dangerous.

BOSS: Brainwashed Mario: Unlike most enemies, Mario isn't possessed... kinda. A transparent King Boo looms over him, taking control of his mind and commanding him to do stuff. He'll run back and forth, shooting fireballs and using jump attacks.

Wasn't boo block an enemy in SMW?

Guys! Awsome! I thought this topic was on the outs for sure! keep it up! Also I updated the First Page of updates.

Shyguy Grey I love the Possessed princess's face. it looks empty and cold... awsome! and the sketch you did of her on a boo is really cool. I think I may change the boos eyes to hearts to give the idea that peach becomes the "ghoul princess" that doesn't really attack herself but by commanding an army of love stuck boos. What do you think? As for Mario the onlt idea i've had so far thats been somewhat significance is turning the 'M' sideways so it looks like a squiggle. Written it sounds lame but when I drew it, it looked cool. heh heh. Also the Iceboo, though its small then I thought up is awsome! perhaps an Iceboo minion? I don't like the name Iceboo... Frozoob? Frozen with Boo backwards?

Star... First of all... Nintendo did what!?!?...don't joke with me like that! I love the ghouliggler sprite dude! I think it may be a little to pink maybe? I like the size though. Man, you really captured what I was going for! great work! I have been racking my brain for how to do a good bob-bomb type boo and you definatly got it! I changed the name to Boomb, that cool? I may add the twist key... i dunno though...the Boolisus is cool. What 2 latin words?

FlameDragon i like your idea of alot of Boos combining but I havn't seemed to be able to create something... until now. I'm thinking it'll be the "Ghoul Princess" that makes a bunch of boos combine. I still don't have an idea for it's shap though. Maybe it could resemble the old pixel version of pricess from SMB1 when you rescue her from the castle? you know, making her devistating creation in her honer?
DemonJ you always struck me as the quinton Terrentino of MFGG. You always seem to have the crazy ideas and style... not that they're bad they just always seem to shoot in from left feild. I think your idea would fit well in a swamp level. Through out the swamp world there could be like 3 that roam and each had a darkness emitter inside them. Only when you destroy all three will the darkness go away from the swamp lands? i dunno cool idea though.
Welcome PM2. I like your possessed mario ideas. I'll definatly throw in the classic fireball and jump moves for mario but the other 2 I think are pretty much already enemies. Thanks for your input though!

Just to tease and let your imaginations adventure I present
"ghoul's keep"
