Super Mario Orbis (name pending) - Planning Out The Ideas [06/15/18]

Hello peeps, chineesmw here! Or you can call me:

- chinesesmw

Anyway, I'm going to be showing off a hack that I've been planning for some years, but I never had the chance to execute it, due to school, assembly frustration, incompatibilities, and generally the time lost on this.

I'm going to attempt making a FULL hack! this is going to be torture...


Undecided Hack Title

The name of the hack was going to be called SUPER MARIO COLORS or even COLORS, but of course, that name was taken already and I didn't want this hack to get confused with MolSno's hack.

Then I was thinking, what should the place that connects all of the planets be called? The word Orbis came to mind, so I guess this hack's name will be called SUPER MARIO ORBIS?

There is a 60% chance that I will still change the name of this hack if I find a better name (doesn't have much ring to it). But as of now, SUPER MARIO ORBIS will be the name.
Try to suggest some names if you can! :D




All In One

I love making 1 level hacks. I mean, I don't intentionally want to make it 1 level, but I have such a short attention span. I usually have a really neat idea for a hack at the time, but later on, I get bored of the hack and make a different hack. Due to this, I have so, so many unfinished hacks. #tb{:(}

My mains include Sweet Land, Hazardous Halloween, and Tropical Park.


Sonic Colors

Once again, I had a short attention span and was thinking of new ideas. That's when I thought about Sonic Colors' concept of having some fun-looking worlds with bright, amazing colors all around.

Coincidentally, the previous unfinished hacks that I've made fell under the category of bright, fun-looking worlds. And instead of making those hacks go in the ever-so forgotten SMW Graveyard, I'm going to transfer it into ONE, BIG, FULL HACK! :D

Time to show the progress that I have with this hack!

World Map

So far, I have decided that there will be a total of 8 Worlds, but you can play a minimum of 5 Worlds to beat the game:

(1) Ereve
(2a) Amoria
(2b) Rien
(3a) Lumiere
(3b) Edelstein
(4a) Ludibrium
(4b) Magatia
(5) Pantheon
Yes, these names were inspired by MapleStory. 8>

I did a quick sketch of how the MAIN overworld map would look like.

Try and guess the themes I'm going to have for each world #tb{^V^}:

Levels

Again, I do not have much, but here is a sample of one level that I will create!

LUMIERE - WATER PARK


I'm learning ASM, so that I code some of my own custom sprites. I'm creating a Tube Goomba sprite from Super Mario 3D World as shown in this GIF:

I know, it's a bit glitched. There is A LOT more to fix than you can see in the GIF, but I'm making an effort.


Let me know what you guys think so far about this concept and feel free to give any suggestions for the name of the hack or just the hack in general! :)

WOW ? that is an amazing hack you are planning out. I really like to tube goomba sprites. They look so new. I’m so proud you are learning ASM. Make sure you keep up the good work.

Thanks for your appreciation! #tb{:j}

The Tube Goomba sprite was a real pain to code, especially the graphics animation.

I will post screenshots of graphics and gameplay footage soon.
I still need to solve these ASM incompatibilities :/

Plot

Right now, I am working on the plot, here is the summary:

- It is Princess Toadstool's birthday, instead of celebrating at her castle, the Mario Brothers and his companions (Yoshi, Toad, etc) will celebrate at a location called Orbis.
- Orbis is a location in space that connects eight amusement worlds which can be traveled by a hyper-speed rocket ship from the Mushroom Kingdom.
- King Bowser and the Koopalings disguise as Tour Guide Toads in Orbis, capture Princess Toadstool, and sends off Luigi and the companions back into Mushroom Kingdom. Mario manages to stay in Orbis!
- King Bowser and the Koopalings take over Orbis and use it as their dominion by possessing the eight powerful stars.
- Mario has to rescue the eight powerful stars from each castle and he has to rescue his friends!



Music

I'm trying to learn how to create / port custom music as well. Here is some music that I ported and plan on using in my hack:

- Sonic Heroes - Hang Castle
- Mario Kart 7 - Music Park
- Sonic Heroes - Sea Gate
- Sonic The Hedgehog (Masters System) - Bridge Zone
- Sonic The Hedgehog 4 - Splash Hill Zone

I don't know how to sample yet, so my ports are unsampled at the moment.
