Tip: Create a fair "difficulty curve" - that is, start off easy and then get gradually more difficult as the hack progresses.

This little furball currently spawns the wrong sprite (00 instead of, I assume should be B5-B6.) We also need to figure out how the boss needs to be placed into the level so we can try it out.
I'll get to setting this up for the next base ROM update. Chanagaburu drew some graphics for it, but I don't have them nor do I believe they were ever submitted to anyone except for MarioE, so we might need to work around that.
I sent the graphics to andyk since we had a short discussion about it, since apparently he was also going to make them. I told him that he can edit them to his liking so they look more appealing.
I plan on finally getting to work on this. Sorry I've been so lazy.

I'm reposting Smallhacker's concept art here for reference points:

As for the name of the boss, It may be Cat-A-Comb.
Oh Christ, that's painful even by my standards.
Let's keep the pain going, I suggest we call him The Ferocious Fur-aoh
Apparently, the cat is supposed to be female, according to Leod.

I actually like the two previous suggestions, especially Cat-a-comb. Catacombette, maybe?

Something playing off of Sphynx might also be cool, like Madam Mynx or something like that (since manx is a cat breed).

Also, apparently the Ancient Egyptian word for cat is "mau." Madam Mau?

There's also the Egyptian cat-goddess Bastet, but that's harder to do things without it being corrupted into "bastard."

I'd go with Madam Mau, personally.
The cat should be named Field of Spears, and should be at its weakest when battled at the start of the work week, but gather strength from consuming prepared dishes based on wide, flat strips of unleavened dough.

whenever I hear Madam, I think of a more oriental/french culture rather than desert.

Why not go with the Cliche Cleo-Cat-ra


(ooh, tatrion is on)
I like the Madam Mau idea for the name.
Andy are you still working on gfx for this? Do you have anything to show us?
Cleo-Cat-Ra is one of the best ideas I have seen. Also I want to see this boss in action.
Memo to self:

Code
<SNN>	it's like, two attacking frames, two frames holding the staff up,
a flinch frame, a 16x16 ball of yarn, 16x16 block of sand
<SNN>	based off of smallhacker's concept art and such

Perhaps Princess Paw or Pharaoh Feline.
*pokes andy with a cattle prod*

What's going on with this?
Seeing as how he's still inactive for a while, we might have to pull someone else in to draw them.
