Would like an invite because why not. PM me

Hey. It appears that I've somehow lost the work I already did on sound replacements during moving all my data around and formatting and reformatting and whatnot. Fortunately, I have all the source files. Given that there's some ideas, and given time, probably the best solution would be accepting sug...

I'd rather have a Hub. You can do so much more with them aesthetically as opposed to an overworld. I think it'd be a HUGE waste to not have a hub, really. The SMBX overworld is lackluster. If people are worried due to the amount of level space and if we can't really have both then just split the epi...

My idea is this: Do away with the concept of "worlds", have the overworld with hubs thing I said, and just place them one after another by difficulty. A lot of the worlds in ASMBXT didn't exactly end with a boss, or had their boss in the middle, which is a defining characteristic of the wo...

I'm also against themed worlds. We wouldn't have such an eclectic mix of levels in ASMBXT if there were themed worlds. Also someone suggested, probably the best way to avoid any issues is to use an overworld with a number of hubs. Basically because I prefer hubs as they're far more interactive and y...

I hope SAJewers figured out a way for there to be unlimited levels for A2MBXT without using a hub. Not sure what exactly you mean here. Either way, you can't have more than 200 warps in a.lvl file, so if we have more levels, we'll need to use an overworld map, which I would prefer to use, but that'...

Anyway, good job everyone, now let's take care of the things that went wrong to fix them in the sequel.

If the testers say 'no, this isn't good at all, x y z need fixing before it's acceptable' then it shouldn't be accepted. I just want to avoid cases where the rules are applied too stringently, which tends to be what I see in these types of projects.

My two cents for A2MBXT or whatever it's called: -Make sure every level is tested by at least 2 people, preferably 3, before the game is released. It really should've been done in the original, but considering people wanted to rush the game back in January, it could've been worse. I don't think the ...

Also, I could've sworn Kashkabald tested this on his stream, but I can't find it.

Wasn't it adamwcz?

"Nasa Amulet Guy" is an anagram. For what? I'll let you find out. I might change the boss battle and add one or two POW blocks to damage everything at once. Should make it faster. It was meant to be a Zebraspace level but it got moved to world 8 since it was full by the time I submitted it...

Test Chamber M is a good level with issues. Certainly not the best. Let us not forget the tedious boss. An earlier boss was removed because it was nearly the exact same thing, but it only had 4 hits, not 15. You could get stuck in the Suicidal Boss Rush boss though. It was glitchy. This boss is just...

Does it contain these two updates or?

I'm getting antsy for when raocow finally plays my level.

What's the last update? Also, please keep up with the version numbers, makes my job easier.

All of the songs featured in the level are backwards, but does anyone know what the "normal" versions of them are? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF-o2uHGRRA and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMDB1U_z4O4 I'm 100% about the SMRPG one being the right cover, not 100% about the Figaro Castle...

Doctor Shemp wrote: So MDPZ would have gotten in the game regardless of who created it. That's why Shoe Zone, a level that raocow hasn't gotten to yet but is frankly just embarrassing in its amateurishness, is in the game.

Oh, this. Shoe Zone is just too bad of a level, fortunately it's not very hard.

So apparently the update I did the other day on the launcher site either did not apply or it reverted itself, and I only noticed now because I've been away.

Which patch do I link again?

Its funny how raocow understood the coin arrow in my level to use the shells against the Lakitus... then even managed to kill himself off his own shells.

Tree of coins thing: The spriteset had the topmost tree graphics missing, so as a joke I did that. The text I made up on the spot. The background was tiled by Duker, that's his work, superb job and thank you once again! I hope someone got the 'A Mega Demo Universe Lateral Manufacture' thing. EDIT: O...

Thank god the boss fight in Suicidal Boss Rush was removed, it was definitely the most unfun thing I played in this game (mind, I haven't gone through the entirety of it)

I have known the guy for years now: he has this habit of being in every internet community I tend to be in. My advice? Just don't bother replying to him. I'm amazed he didn't go off in a rant about the laughter being a sign raocow is a reptilian. Yes, he's one of those. He's also quite the character...

SAJewers can you post a changelog so I can update the site?
