hey guys, ive been busy with finals this week, which is why i haven't really updated in a while, nor have i really had time to work on my hack. in the mean time, here's the world 1 map, remastered from scratch to reflect each of the levels more nicely.



feedback is appreciated, ill try to respond but i'm usually relaxing or studying because finals are exhausting..

Presentation/Polish: Yes (smw has aesthetics, as simple as they may be)
Direct Map16 Access: Yes
Glitches: Yes (glitches are a part of the game, and a bit of a complex subject aswell. what is a glitch? if we allow map 16, tile 1f0, and therefore other glitches, should be allowed aswell. there are some glitches you cant disable aswell, like holding things on vines or nets?)

honestly, i'd like to use custom music, but i don't know if everyone is against that or what? its really the only "custom" thing i want allowed. hell, id be fine with just the vldc remixes like gbreeze suggested, just pls give us a wider selection

yeah, i guess music doesn't matter much because this is mostly about level design and not atmosphere, but i'm really gonna try to make my level look interesting even with vanilla palettes and graphics, and actually create some kind of atmosphere with it lel, but i guess just cuz i wanna do that doesn't mean custom music should be allowed.

i wanted to try something new, and i was looking for a new game to make levels for for like over two days. i tried sonic, but i couldnt really figure anything out, let alone get into it. i tried mario land 2, but the editor just wouldn't save my changes to the rom. but now, i finally found a game, kirby's adventure! i'm currently working on the first level of my hack of this game. i haven't really decided much, as i'm mostly doing this for fun alongside super mario world hacking.

this hack is inspired by the many addons to older games, such as the legend of zelda master quest or super mario bros lost levels. its also kinda inspired by the vip and jump smw hacks which may sound a bit weird, but you can see it in the level design. i'm mostly trying to make cool levels and fun levels within kirby's adventure's limitations. not really following any rules here, if there where any to begin with really.





this first level goes over somethings the original game doesn't really ever touch, like being able to swallow enemies beneath you. there's also some bullet hell elements i implemented due to kirby's float ability. mostly alot of dodging, and i personally think its pretty fun.

woah, i'm stoked! this double overworld size thing sounds crazy

thanks in advance

im retarded

this hack seems really interesting. i love the overworld, has a very different feel from others ive seen.. probably cuz its more smb3 styled, but i digress. it looks great. overall this hack seems to have a very interesting flair and atmosphere, while still being traditional enough. honestly cant wait to play the full thing.
