Pac-Land (Porting to a new ROM)

Link Thread Closed

Standard

Screw "Mario Bros" I'm moving on to a new hack which I'm kinda excited about....

PAC-LAND!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------

STORY:

The Ghosts are at it again and this time, are trying to lure Pacman into they're mansion...but for what purpose?

When Pacman enters the Mansion, He finds a giant ghost, after defeating it, He discovers that it was a distraction, and the ghosts suck him into some kind of portal. Leading he to another dimension.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Concept:

Control Pacman though 7 Worlds...each based off of another classic 8-bit game.

Including:

- The Megaman World

- The Mario World

- And the Legend of Zelda World

----------------------------------------------------------------------

What different here from the original Mario World besides the
graphics?

- Pacman is now running on the heart system

- Pacmans hitbox is always small

- Goombas are unkillible and stay on ledges

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Videos:

Unfortunately there is only one today. more updates to come.

So, tell me what you think.
That's it!

Though if pacs act as coins, that would mean easy lifes.
I forgot to add to the differences:

- Coins no longer give 1-ups
Well... The lack of music and lack of real level design makes me kinda iffy about this whole idea. Yes, you have created a pac-man like experience, but you've taken out the nostalgia factor about it! There's no music, no nostalgic level design, not much substance at all!

I'm very glad you decided to to make a hack! The level design and graphics are all alright, but a few suggestions. I'm not entirely sure how the level ends but it would be much more fun if this was similar to "the coin hunt", one of my favorite hacks, where you must collect all the coins, or pellets in your case, to complete the level. Not only would this be more fun in my opinion, but it would also be more like the original pac-man. Good luck with this! I'll be your number one supporter!

You should find a way to end the level when all of the coins....er.. pac dots are eaten. Otherwise you'll ruin my pac-man tradition D:

Maybe an asm patch or some sort that goes like this:

No more coins = pass level


Also different color ghosts would be nice :3

Prepare for your death. Can you take on the Xreaper?
@Yanama

Did you know that Pacman for the arcades never had any music? It just sounded like it did because it was so noisy.

@Ixtab

I couldn't find a "End level when all coins are collected" custom sprite. But I DID request one in the Requests section.

@Xreaper

Well....i wanted different colored ghosts to, but since they're goomba edits...

Well.... Why not using tweaker so they process off-screen not killable and to have different palette! Isn't that fun :D

i know that!, but what im saying is that I want a different asortment of colors in this.

like a red ghost next to a blue one...
Try using koopas :D (They use different colors)
Yellow,green,blue,red
That's enough?

Very epic-win, this game a look like a original Pacman from Arcade with the Mario gameplay, i like it ^^
I'd really like to help you with this. I've got plenty of ideas that'll really give you a Pac Man experience while still using platforms. But if you want to do this yourself, I understand.

By the way, who has the Castle Rush ROM?
1. That'd be great if you could help.

2. Still RaymanMan...


EDIT: I got cracking on some megaman graphics and here is a pic of what i got so far.

That's just great !
But, suggestion :
Apply the 6-digit coin counter ! =D

I believe you can use Tweaker to change an existing enemy's palette and insert it as a custom sprite.

+ 128 Marios
If you want different colored ghostsw youc ould use shelless koopas and us tweaker so they cant be jumped on.

Other than that I reall like this hack, its really cool.

Apparently you didn't look hard enough. :P
click^
Also, If you want, I will port some pac man music for you. :E
meh
Rather than a block, use Level ASM. The code isn't too complicated.
