New Super Mario Brothers!, Open-Source, Playable Fun

Nope. :P I think the castle at the end is ugly, but it's the best I could get it to look. There were, infact, a few things I was forced to make myself. The castle, the blocks that appear after you hit a question block, the pipes, the castle and the flag (Base, pole, flag itself).

It is sad to see a well-planned demo be so short. It has the stuff of Nintendo. Real MP3s, no midis, real features of buttons, correct collisions. The star is hard to catch though.

You are good at making games, are you? ;p

For some reason your games keep turning my volume all the way up each time a song loads, could you please configure them so they don't do that?

Me? I dunno. I guess so? I'd love to become a professional game designer, and actually tend to "study" games as I play them just so I know what makes them fun. Level design, etc. It's all very interesting to me.

Not terribly good at coding, though. At least, not compared to what some of my friends tell me. :P

Edit:

Not my fault. That's something DMC2 does all on it's own, every time you start it up, and DMC2 is practically a requirement for playing alternative music formats (MP3, .IT, etc). It's not a feature I can just "turn off".

Sorry about not replying with a comment about the game itself. Oops. :P

It's quite nice! Excellent level design too.

You and I are quite similar.

Oh, and about DMC2 changing volume levels: I haven't tried this myself (I don't use DMC2 and have no reason to change volume levels in-game), but I believe MMF has a function that allows you to retrieve the user's current volume levels. At the beginning of a game, before the DMC2 object is used, retrieve the user's various volume levels (Wave, S/W Synth, et cetera) and store them in global values. Create a global event that restores the volume to the values of those counters when the game is closed (or even after the DMC2 object begins playing music, if that works).

Like I said, this is all a theory by me. I haven't actually tested it yet.

Haha I have the same koopa sprite in my game. Whoever made it obviously doesn't know anything about how turtles walk lol.
Whoa, this is nice. I like the buttstomp and the running animation is the coolest I've seen in a fangame. nice job!

I.. made it. I just took the M&LSSS sprite, chopped the flower off the head, and made the legs wiggle enough so it vaguely looked like walking.

I know it kind of sucks, but I really didn't want to take the time to fully animate it. :P

Actually, you two make a good pair... just like the guy who did the Yoshi demo.

Man, that was awesome!
