Tip: Never put a Hammer Brothers Sprite near lava. After being killed, it will still throw hammers until it sinks or goes off-screen.

I love it #w{<3}

The blue between the yes looks awkward though - just have it all white.
The right eye looks like it's about to fall off, but everything else looks good.

Anyway, the only comment I have for you is that it faces towards the screen a lot more than it should(turn its head to the right).

Facing... the camera? To me, it looks more like it's looking to the side (more specifically, Mario).

Rexes don't have that strip of blue between their eyes in the official Mario games and so its left eye blends in with it somewhat.

You both are right, in fact, I fixed that right when I posted the image.
Anyway, here's the full thing (drawing a Rex body took me more time than I would ever have imagined) side by side with the old one for comparision measures:

That looks adorable #w{<3}

I have no problems about it.
Yeah I love the newer version. Great job Magi.
(Reposting so people can see it)
Thanks for the comments, guys -^ω^-

Anyway, I was thinking about something... We are intending to scrap everything SMW related, aren't we? So, there's something that's bothering me for a while... the font. We'll have a custom one, right? It feels strange to see everything customized except one of the things that appear the most in this hack (considering the ammount of dialogue and message boxes we're going to have). Did anyone here ever bother thinking about it?


Just so you know, I tried to redraw the Cheep-Cheep. I'll post a screen of it later today or tomorrow (← most likely).

EDIT:
Here's the Cheep-Cheep:

Also, yay balloon!:

I think outlining goggles on that Cheep-Cheep, and it'll better as a Blurp.

And that balloon is great! I tried making one myself, but blech.
The balloon looks great, though it looks kind of odd that the outline around the tied portion of it is thicker than the rest of it. As for the Cheep-Cheep, it could be just me, but it almost looks like its eyes are popping out of its head a bit (either that, or they're goggles that could probably stand to be a bit better defined). Looks good other than that; nice work.

I don't think it's a huge deal, considering SMW's default font is so generic that it's hard to connect it to any one game (in my opinion, at least), though I don't think a new font, as long as it's readable, would be a bad idea at all.
There's a bunch of fonts out there, and it isn't to hard to make some.

And you know, the whole new sound effects idea is up in the air.
I agree the Cheep-Cheep eyes look a little buggy, even for a fish. The tail could probably be a little fishier as well; it almost looks a bit like a boo tail a present. The fins also seem a touch far forward to me, but it may just be the oversized eyes that give that impression.
Can you start sending me the files for these as you finish them? I'd like to do another base ROM update very soon and it would be nice to have a few redrawn sprites in it.
I have some buzzy beetles that you can use, if you want.

What? Did you say... blurp?

Yeah, didn't notice that, but I fixed it, and I also made its shape a bit rounder... but I'm not posting an image, since it's almost unoticeable (and also a bit irrelevant).

I reduced the eye size and made some changes to its tail fin, but I didn't know how would I improve its "wing", so here's it:

I also redrew Yoshi's fireball:













Oh, and DragonFire, those look nice, I especially like the one with the white eyeballs, and by the way, about the Buzzy Beetles...

Actually, the Para-Beetles don't look like their non-flying counterparts, in fact, this is what bothers me about the Sparabuzzies, they look too much like the normal Buzzy Beetles, even though in the official games, they look really different from each other, look:

Thus, the Spara-Buzzies should be more like Para-Beetles with spikes, not Buzzy Beetles with wings and spikes. I also think a more correct name would be "Spara-Beetle" not "Spara-Buzzy" even though "Sapara-Buzzy" sounds cuter :/

EDIT: Oh! Forgot to reply to you, S.N.N., yes I'll send you the ALLGFX.bin file after I finish, don't worry ^^

That depends on which game you are looking at; the Paper Mario games have enemies called Para-buzzies that look just like normal Buzzy Beetles with wings (and there's a spiky variant as well).
Yep, I know that. But this is a platformer Mario game, and the look they go for the platformers is the one I showed (and they also have [somewhat unnecessary] different names).

And randodude, they also look good, but Buzzy Beetles don't have only two feet :/ (and as far as I know, there are no gray shades in SMWCP2's palette).

That's because it appears to be an entirely different species, I mean it looks different, has a different name and acts entirely different.
The red platformer one can be ridden on, while the other one can be hopped off of like other generic enemies.


I also made Spiketops and Spinies to go with the Buzzies.
The egg frames look.. odd?
Like I don't understand what the animation is supposed to be.
Does it rotate around and at the same extend its spikes or what?
Other than that, I like them all, EXCEPT for that strange straight line right above the face, smoothing that out would probably look better.
They all look like Buzzy Beetles, which is bad. I also agree with everything leod said.

EDIT: What you did with them was basically this or this.

I don't see how them all looking similar is bad, it always was kind of clear that they're closely related to me.
Besides, the Koopas all look the same, too.
