I don't know what to say anymore guys!
I'm just so insane happy you liked what I made up. It really means alot to me. I just hope I can keep standard of the work I've done so far. I mean, creativity doesn't grow on trees. I use alot of time to think about new ideas, many get trashed because I'm not experienced enough. I'm also quite old IRL so I have my daily obligations that prevent form hacking. So.. to keep this thread warm of related content is a hard task. I understand that all of you are patient, but personaly I feel like I'm under a sort of deadline after I made this thread. I try to just ignore that and keep on going in my tempo while I listen to you guys.
Well, now you know that. I'll answer the latest comments now:
@ Jacob: Thanks alot! Still, Style taste is totally individual.
@ Hobz: Tnx! Well, when the time comes for a video, you'll get that SMW hack feeling, I promise! Btw, I'm proud of having a 777 post in my thread^^
@ Lemonade: "Blockwesome" haha, thats something! The block will be fliping a little when he walks, like he had foots.. hard to explain. You'll get to see that in the first video.
@ DrawingYoshi: Tnx alot man! I hope you like everybody else will like this hack, quite obvious.
@ LarryMatt101: Hehe, you are VERY welcome to nitpick if you want! Anyway, tnx!
@ everest700: Thanks! Well, hacks can die just as suddenly as any other beings/things, I'll feed it well so it lives long! (That did almost make sense).
@ GoldenSonic15: Thanks! Yea, the storyline is very silly. That is on purpose becuase I suck at making storys. I'll maybe change it some, time will tell.
@ Volke: Originally posted by Uhrix...I've changed the physics of jumping (shorter jumps) and big/super mario (has 16x16 interaction field now)... Yea, it was covered. But I don't expect people to read all in my "book" at the first page. Stay curious!
@ Sniggerb0bble: Hehe, I see. You can blame me too, I've had a hectic half year with work and stuff. I just want to point out that you've been a good motivation for me. I'll download skype again and meet you there.
@ Desert-Fox: Thank you! heh, you are not the only one who seem to not get it^^
@ Koopinator113: You too^^ tyty!
@ Taven: A block player yes! Ain't that something^_^
...Some of you may not understand why I answer everyone and not just overall, well the answer to that is: I don't miss anything of what you say, no one is ignored here.
Aaaaand at last I quick related update! I'm working at the title-screen atm, so stay tuned!
EDIT: I apologize to GoldenSonic15 for actually mixing between him and everest700. I feel like a joke now after I said "no one is ignored here". hehe, it won't happen again!

I find it nice you take the time to acknowledge all the users commenting on your hack it shows you listen to people and will most likely follow criticism and take ideas to heart.

May I suggest that the block could break (like with a spin-jump) instead of falling offscreen ?
(warning : insane post part. The author went insane while writing this)
Also, anybody here played Within a Deep Forest ?
There could be a similar gameplay- Where you could bounce the block higher by holding the jump key...
And hey let's get insane, change block materials to solve puzzles ? (as an iced block would slide but be vulnerable to fire, and a bouncy block bounce higher but bounce off walls)...
Oh god it would be too much awesomeness foy my heart to handle.
(end of insanity)
wait what did I just wrote ?

Well folks, here's the title screen as it is for now
I'm actually pretty satisfied with it, quite colorful and simple. I'll
probably add some more decorations and some cool exanimations
later. I don't know what you guys think, does it clash dramatically
with the in-game graphical style?
Also...
@ ninja boy: I find it nice that you notice this=) I just love everybody who's interested in this.
@ Lemonade: I hope I understand you right mr. Do you mean the death animation? if so, the block turn into a used brown block and fall down, no fliping. Also, quite cool ideas you got there, I'll maybe use something like that.

Oh, that's an awesome title screen. Even though the style is slightly different from the rest of the hack, it works well as a title screen. I think title screens should be a bit more flashy, so yours definitely does a good job of that.
Like you said, it could probably use a few more decorations, but so far, it looks really great!

It's a pretty nice title screen. A little more decoration and it's perfect. Either way it's perfect, really. It's like the SMWCP title screen, only it still kinda fits mario. What would be cool is if you had small levels where the block can talk to other blocks like throw blocks and note blocks.

I really like the way this hack looks! I really look forward to more updates!
I think the title screen fits the in-game graphics perfectly and actually brings out a lot of character and feel. (or something like that.)

thats a cool title screen you have there.
also, i dont know if this was covered but will there be a player 2?
it might be cool for you to apply the player 2 separate graphics patch and make the seconds player a note block with luigi's super jump. 
just think about it.

You seem to be very good with graphics, the title screen is the best I have ever seen.

Again, only positive feedback, you guys are just cute!
And here we go again...
@ Jacob: Thanks alot! I was thinking of maybe decreasing the black outlines a little so it fits even more. I mean, it has a very YI style as it is now. And yea, I'm thinking of a tree or a bush on the right side as decoration.
@ HyperShadow32: Thanks man! SMWCP's title is just awsome, so being compared to that is really a pleasure. I'm planing on have some few NPC-blocks here and there in the hack that you can talk to. As for now, I have a "ghost block" that helps the player with obstacles. He shall act in many different ways. You will get to see that in the first video.
@ Taven: Thanks! Hehe, its fake HDMA^^
@ two_headed_yoshi: Thanks! Yea, you can compare it to paper mario actually. I'll try my best to keep my work up.
@ 1UPdudes: Thanks dudes! I'm not the only one who is good at keeping it simple and sweet, you know!
@ Orange Yoshi4: Tyty! I guess I get you right on "character and feel". Thats what I'm trying to do in the title screen. Its just a picture explaining in short what you will see in the game.
@ Hobz: Thanks man! I'm really unsure if I will be having a second player. If so, I'll definitely be thinking about what you said, its a really interesting idea.
@ LarryMatt101: Thanks you! "Epic" is for sure a epic word!
@ everest700: Thanks dude! Some of the best title screens you've seen? Well, be sure to dig deeper in the featured hack section!
Quick update, there is soon time for a video, stay tuned!
Edit: I made this supporter bar, quite poor tho

I'm not quite sure what to say about this hack, since everything I can think of has already been said by someone else. The graphics are great, the idea is original, the title screen is exceptional... what more can I say?
