I could totally use a few extra days. I got way sidelined until several days ago and am only now finally really getting into it.

I'm just gonna redirect everyone to the MaGMML forum on Sprites INC. because that's basically where all of this has been taking place ;p So, Spriter's Inc has been down for me for a day or two now. I keep getting a 'MyBB SQL Error'. But it just so happens that I also haven't been able to use Gamema...

Oh neat! I may participate this time, I kinda regret missing out on the first one. I'll download the devkit and see if it clicks with me, and I guess I'll take any questions I have there.

And it's over. Thanks for this LP, raocow, it was a great jaunt down memory lane. I've always loved DK94, and was disappointed at the overall direction that the Mario vs Donkey Kong / March of the Minis series took, taking it away from a puzzle platformer and more towards something more Lemmings-esq...

I just realized that if raocow keeps up his eight levels per video trend we're going to be left with the last video being only four levels. 5 Well I knew that, but you know, as raocow said. Anyway it turned out to not matter, as we got a four level video here, so there are an even-number of level-c...

Unless he hunkers down and beats the remaining 12 levels in World 8 in one go!

Oh man, Mischief Makers, I'm looking forward to this. I rented that a number of times when I was in high school. This game desperately needs a re-release on a modern platform so we won't need to rely on wonky emulation or tracking down an actual cart. I guess there's some licensing issues between Sq...

Feel better, raocow!

Wow, this has been a long LP, but it's been a lot of fun. Major props to Horikawa for organizing and running the whole thing, she has an outstanding work ethic for a something that's a silly fun internet project. So the next Maggle will be a SMW one eh? I, uh, I may not participate there. Or, maybe ...

Wow.

Sturg you're some kind of fantastic lunatic game-make genius. The gimmick alone is probably enough to carry its own game, and the conclusion was just marvelous.

One thing I wanted to do on my screen was paste Waluigi's head on Peach's sprite and have the text be something like "Wah ha ha, Walu-Peachy time!", but I didn't have the time nor the heart to make that sprite sheet so you were all spared from it.

Wow, that Mega Man and Samus. The needed tweaks aside, this has been a truly impressive showcase. You folks have done a fantastic job, especially considering the software you've had to work with to make this happen (that being the ramshackle assortment of baffling design choices and weird code all h...

Horikawa Otane wrote:also, I SUSPECT we'll be revealing two characters tomorrow.... Both in Smash, both men, and both similar narratively I guess haha.

First thing that comes to mind is blue-haired anime swords.

But hey, maybe it will instead be Fox and Falco?

And now I'm wondering if this sort of 'get hit and immediately return to checkpoint' mechanic could have benefited my level. Might have allowed me to make the Percybots more active. Hmmmm.

If Kirby gets implemented we're going to have to resprite him as Super Squad Kirby/Zbambabar for a STTB game. :I

Holy balls, wow, I was not expecting this. Rosalina looks like she could still use a bit of tweaking to her physics (is this something we could do on a per-episode basis without too much trouble I wonder?) but the implications here are amazing. Hell, maybe this will reignite some SMBX passion over a...

Ha ha ha, I love those big compilation levels. The postgame is pretty great so far.

Congrats Ignoritus, that was a heck of a level you made. I've been wondering all contest whether or not the winning level would use LUA extensively, just a little bit, or not at all. It was really interesting to see how just a simple usage of it, just to keep track of objects between deaths, complet...

An update for Sea Turtle Sanctuary and Mangrove Cavern, fixing some issues brought up in reviews.

It can take months. Months huh? Hmm. Sea Turtle Sanctuary uses music from Shatae: Risky's Revenge, which Jake Kaufman has available on his bandcamp site which you can choose to download freely or pay a fee, so it seems like it should be fine? The stage also contains a BGM from Star Fox 2 in the hid...

You need to fix Mangrove Cavern's music, it's Nintendo music and that isn't allowed. Ok question: I just made some changes to Mangrove Cavern and Sea Turtle Sanctuary, but before I upload them how can I be sure the musics don't trip a Content ID? I changed Mangrove Cavern's BGM to something else to...

Welp, here I am. I don't look at getting 14th Place here as a step down from last year, I just look at it this way: In last year's contest I scored higher than 133 other levels, and this time around I scored higher than 258 other levels so by THAT metric I improved! (this is my logic and I'm stickin...

Either with lua, or from collecting that one star on that section. Once a star has been collected, it won't appear again. This can be used to trigger events that only happen when the star is not there. I imagine it was done with the SMW Star, yeah, that one never re-appears in a level once it has b...

The Notion Thief was amazing and probably should have won the entire contest despite being a boss and not a level.

(Ok maybe not won, but at least in the Top 10)

Honestly I'm fine with

players being able to find the secret leek in Faceblock Bound more easily with Sheath or specific Catnip

, if they happen to have that setup going into the level then more power to em.
