Something something sprites something platforming something something predictability...
Today was pretty consistent with the theming.
Visually a rather pleasant level.

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
My favorite part was that the winning run immediately followed the stupidest death, so no editing was necessary and the infuriated silence could just hang in the air.

You should put this video on niconico and see how the Japanese respond to your reactions. Maybe they'll understand you, somewhat.

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
I honestly think that your experience would have been totally different if that one nipper that jumps down the vine was removed. The shell-riding was pretty easy for you and if that nipper was gone the luck element would've been gone and you could reliably learn the stage w/ the mushroom.
Well it is a decent hack but sometime its just too repetitif there no level that actually pop in your face and your like oh yeah that level they all ressemble themselves and just monster along the way.

That's how I feel too about that level.Leet wrote: ↑6 years ago I honestly think that your experience would have been totally different if that one nipper that jumps down the vine was removed.

Honestly like, while the shell riding part looked really hard, it did look fun!
And like, I feel like raocow probably would have been more trustful of the second half the way it was, if it wasn't for that going on in the first half
Edit: Then again, the fact that this nonsense happened in the first half probably did prepare raocow for "the worst".

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
Given I couldn't bring myself to watch YUMP... what was the joke with the goal sphere room? I didn't see anything that'd have killed you if you just grabbed the goal spheres, nor did I see any way in which the invisible blocks helped.

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
Why are the most frustrating levels in the hack have only a 2* or 3* difficulty rating? I'm just about to start World 5 myself and the worst level by far was the Iceberg level in World 4 and that was 3*. Today's level looks even worse than that. I wouldn't be surprised if an outright Kaizo level gets a 1* difficulty rating which can take 2-3 episodes at this point. Like why have a difficulty rating system that has no meaning?

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
There was a YUMP level based entirely around finding invisible blocks which build a large structure that leads to the goal. Imagine if an entire level was expanded out of that goal sphere room, and that's what you'd have.YelseyKing wrote: ↑6 years ago Given I couldn't bring myself to watch YUMP... what was the joke with the goal sphere room?

Also, you should really watch YUMP; even though it has some of the worst SMW levels I've seen, it also has some of the absolute best. I'm completely serious about that. (Though it's also why I have to tell people to watch YUMP instead of play it...)

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
Hyper VI reminded me of how much I enjoyed watching raocow's LPs of SMW hacks, so after I finish watching TSRP2R (which I ignored previously because I thought originally it was just a replay of TSRP2... and I'm actually really enjoying this one. Super well-made hack), I'll probably watch YUMP.
Even the infamous YUMP 38.

Re: Hyper VI - Blocky Isle, Indeed
Fun fact: my original plan for my MaGL the third level was to make a disco shell ride level. After this video, I'm actually kinda glad that I couldn't find the yellow koopa, because a shell ride might have actually scored worse than what I did submit.

Re: Hyper VI - It's Puzzle Time With Haimari (・∀・)
Answer to IQ puzzle:
In the hint room with the message box, a solid block in any vertical row of blocks indicates the correct path, and any non-solid block in the vertical rows indicates an incorrect path. Thereby, the invisible floor is squarely hinted at.

Well, that was a mess of a level in multiple ways.
But the boo laser on the stairs was a neat moment.

Re: Hyper VI - It's Puzzle Time With Haimari (・∀・)
There are certainly times when this hack makes design decisions that I find a bit baffling, but for the most part it makes a good effort to try out different things and push the limits of Mario design. Even if the risks don't always work out, it's been mostly interesting so far, and it's always enjoyable to see raocow having fun challenging himself in the SMW engine.
I'm still scared of what the endgame/postgame has in store, though.

Re: Hyper VI - It's Puzzle Time With Haimari (・∀・)
Funnily enough, I watched a video not too long ago exactly on how the SMB water theme completely defined water music forever:
Also, this level seemed incredibly rom hacky ( or at least, moreso than a typical level in this hack with its multiple fake-outs and various gotcha moments, not particularly punishing though they may be ) but in a decently charming way. Except with the nonsense with the underwater pusher-upper and the rotomines that really needed to calm their nonexistent tits. Seriously, some of those things were just wayyyy too fast - I got stressed out just watching and imagining trying to navigate those on my own.

SMB's water music was actually the first attempt as the overworld music. You can find this in a Iwata Asks interview.

Not *all* underwater music is calm and serene. I can think of a couple examples of hectic, frantic underwater music. Bubble Crab from MMX2, and the flooded ship hold stages in DKC2.
Granted, that I can't think of much *more* than that offhand kinda proves your point. But still!

but since they never made one like that in DKC 2, we got good ol' Lockjaw's Saga.

Re: Hyper VI - It's Puzzle Time With Haimari (・∀・)
These last few levels have been surprisingly pleasant. I fear this is just the calm before the storm because we are approaching that level very soon. You know.. that level...
Re: Hyper VI - Who Needs Secret Exits Anyways
So far Blocky Isle 4 & 5 are my favorite levels of this world I think.
Both of them had weird layouts that made them more interesting to figure out.
I probably prefer 4 solely by being a "normal" level, although after the midpoint seemed somewhat uninspired.
If 5 wasn't a red level that shortcut would have been far less confusing and in hindsight is very helpful in skipping the ResidentSleeper part.
The jumping skeleton ride was very funny and even the part where you go over the goal was cool.
If the level was shorter that would have been really great probably.
