This. Also, I can think of other games - e.g. the original Spyro the Dragon - that had actual enemies in their hubworlds. At least we don't go that far. I guess random enemies in the grass outside the castle doesn't count? Ok, actual enemies that you don't have to summon yourself and are actively i...

It's your own fault if you die to the lava. Besides, Peach's Castle in Mario 64 had like 5 ways to kill you. So far I have found 4 ways in this hub. It's a shame that the instant warp is effect by key presses. I once tried pressing down while the donut block fell, and I wasn't warped. This. Also, I...

So assuming the percentage is indeed a percentage on the file selection screen, at the start of today's recording I was just 53% done. .. This is a big game! I guess that's the star percentage, 'cause you're through 56% of levels now. Also, thank you for providing yesterday's "42 of the day&qu...

I'm excited for World 6 as I stopped testing by that point due to lack of ability so I have no idea what's coming up in most of these levels (except Cryptic Caverns which I did test and like).

You forgot my update to Hot Hot Angry Stars. Did I not put in the level, or was it the No Yoshi entereance whichi I forgot? Either way, It'll be fixed soon. I actually didn't think his levels were that bad, aside from this level (which I thought was just me being a bad mario player), the original S...

So uh, is anyone going to add powerups in an upcoming update--or are updates usually not that game changing? Probably not, since the level suffers from Big Mario (Demo/Iris) Discrimination as well. I just tried it, it's entirely possible to beat the level with a cape/Raccoon. If you thought this wa...

...that if the game wasn't released as soon as it was a functioning product then raocow shouldn't play it at all. what nonsense is this? Read through the Intermission thread. In good faith I'll assume most of it was joking around but sarcasm and irony don't really translate across the internet. The...

There are typos for three reasons: 1) If the people playtesting levels are people who made typos in their own levels then they don't get fixed or even noticed. 2) A reluctance among some people to re-upload levels just to fix typos. 3) A sentiment among certain people on the forums (who are now comp...

I'd support a "Make a Good Level in SMBX" contest.

not sure if this has been fixed yet but you can get stuck in the last room of Hot Angry Stars if you jump out of the boot on the platform with the pipe at the end of the stage before continuing to the leek room. It's been fixed in the new version I posted in the "Fixed Levels" thread. How...

I made another developer's commentary (probably my second last, depending on if I do Frickin Meta or not) while dogs bark faintly in the background and my throat hurts. This possibly contributed to my slightly bad mood and putting down my own level, now that I look back on it. So, uh, watch it or do...

I'd also suggest that we use the existing fork of the SMBX engine. I already have three forks of SMBX installed on my computer (SMBX, STTB & ASMBXT) and I doubt I'm alone in this. It seems unnecessary to build a new fork for every single game as many SMBX releases seem to do these days (e.g. the...

Given the large number of levels contributed by some people to ASMBXT (including me), along with the concern that "8flight will make half the game", I think we should limit the number of levels each person can contribute to A2MBXT. That would also force people to submit their best work rat...

Whoops, forgot to move Player 1 Start back to where it should be.

Hot Hot Angry Stars Changed the end so that it still filters out Podoboo's Shoe, while providing a Kuribo's Shoe in case the player already abandoned Podoboo's Shoe, while making it impossible to do jump out of the new Kuribo's Shoe, get the leek, then land back in Podoboo's Shoe and keep it. This ...

Haven't you heard? We're taking a leaf out of Capcom's book and remaking this game at least five times before doing a sequel.

I think my level is going to stand out as being the weird level of World 5 by being the only normal one then!

See, that's the problem: I'm a woman, but dr_kraid is a guy's name (Kraid from Metroid being a guy, probably). Long story? Maybe Kraid's a surname. Also you know what It's A Wonderful Demo has done now don't you? It's created the Zelda Problem. Which of the two timelines does the rest of the game h...

Pretty late in doing this dev commentary due to my internet being throttled, but hey I have a better sounding microphone this time.

An entire raocoin/rao-coin became a breakable brick block? Is this part of the limitations of the ASMXBT engine? Yes. P-Switches affect all coins, including Yoshi Coins, in the SMBX engine. It's one of those subtle differences between SMBX and SMW, like being able to spin-jump while carrying an obj...

Since I know someone is going to bring this up- either here or on YouTube, I'll just get this out the way. An SMWCX is apparently something that's trying to come to be. (Or "a thing" as you may put it.) It doesn't have official backing from the staff beyond a channel on the IRC, however. ...

Revolution is one of my favourite levels in the game. To be honest I'm really surprised raocow died so much on it. Much more than me in fact and I have probably less than half his skill. Different playstyles I guess.

Much To Do Around Lava: The skull raft moves idiotically fast, making it impossible to stay on and the level unbeatable. Judging by Frozelar's test video, this is a bug. Another player also encountered this. They have the a similar problem with the boss in Charlie's Revenge - I haven't played that ...
