Russ' ASM Request Thread - Flora Editiona

No jokes or witty comments this time, I think you all expected this. Maybe.

Summer is usually the time of the year, when the plant life really gets the spotlight in the form of the warm sun to grow and become greener until it's fall/autumn. And since summer is about to end, let's give these leafy, fruity, flowery and so-on comrades more attention before they start withering away.

This thread's theme is: Plants

Your request must related to plants. It can be a plant-based enemy or obstacle or what have you, like piranha plants, nippers or vines. I'm also counting fungi as well (and algae if you so choose, basically anything that's plant-like), so that means mushroom-based requests are also acceptable.

This time, I may accept patches if they're related to the theme.

RULES:
-I'll only accept max 10 requests.
-Only ONE item per person. Think wisely on what you really want to see!
-No updates for old stuff, only new resources.
-If you want the requested item to feature custom graphics, please link said custom graphics so I can include them.
-Bonus points if there's a disassembly (or other piece of ASM that I can base the request on) that you want a variation of, it'll likely to get done quicker.
-Patience! I may not be able to finish your request during C3 if it's complicated/time consuming enough or I get lazy, so be aware of that.
-If I find your request too daunting/complicated, I'll comment on that. You'll be allowed to request something else.
-Please be descriptive! This should be common sense, if you say just "Ice Nipper", I won't have much to go off of and decline your request.
-Don't change your request, don't be sneaky! Think real hard on what you really wanna see!

1) Daizo Dee Von - Pipe-dwelling Volcano Lotus (DONE!)

Hey, this again. Always love these!

My suggestion/request is the Pipe-dwelling Volcano Lotus (basically taking the properties of the pipe-dwelling lakitu but for a lava lotus instead)

Want progress on 100 Rooms of Enemies: The Nightmare Edition? Go here to see.

(rip my other userbars momentarily)

Okay. For my request, I'd like a Volcano Lotus that spits bullet bills. The extra byte controls what kind of bullet bill it is. Options: No extra byte: regular, eb 1-vertical homing, eb 2-explodes into 4 fireballs, eb 3-bob-omb explosions, etc. Other options can work.
Extra bit makes the Volcano Lotus upside-down.

My request:

Exploding/Bob-omb spitting Piranha Plant

A Piranha Plant that spits Bob-ombs and additionally explodes when the player is in close proximity or when fireballs hit it.

I would also like an upside-down version as well to make for creative setups. (that's settable with an extra bit)

Could you please make a Smw Version of The Melon Piranha Plant from SMB Wonders make sure it shoots seeds in 8 directions

My request is the jumping piranha plant (sprite 4F-50) that chases mario at the mario's specific position.
I mean, when the jumping piranha plant leave the pipe, it moves to the mario's specific position.

How about an edit of the Venus Firetraps that makes them spit iceballs instead of fireballs? It would be nice to see sideways and upside-down variants as options if you decide to take this one, and regarding the iceballs, could you possibly make them stun the player for a few frames in addition to doing damage, please?

If you're curious, this is based on the Frost Piranha from NSMBU/NSLU, as shown here.

For my request, it's not a sprite but it's instead a patch.

Name: No turning for vertical red Parakoopas + red Parakoopa turning and direction point options

Type: Patch

Description: This patch makes the vertical red Parakoopas stop turning left and right when they go all the way down or up like in most 2D Super Mario games. The same goes for the Red Snufit. Sometimes there is an option where they turn to always point in the direction of the player like in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, this also includes horizontal ones too.

Please feel free to claim this request if you wish to or not.

I was thinking of something like this too!

My Mode 0 guide.

My Discord server. It has a lot of archived ASM stuff, so check that out!

Melon Plant
A stationary piranha plant that spits a barrage of seeds every so often (like Ukiki from Yoshi's Island). I drew a melon peel plant head ages ago (gfx.bin here) imagining this plant:



I suppose this idea is just a sort-of reskinned Venus that just shoots a burst of fireballs in a cardinal direction with greater speed instead of targeting Mario.

Name: Ledge Lotus

Type: Sprite

Description: An upside-down Volcano Lotus sprite that floats in the air (has no gravity) and can be stood on from above as a platform.

My request is "Swallow Piranha Plant".
A piranha plant that can literally "swallow" every (including custom ones) sprites and player (which is insta-kill) with yoshi tongue, and only appears from the pipe when player comes closer on specified range and never go back into pipe again unless player far enough away from it.
(All stuffs like length of tongue or range etc. can be modified through asm file.)
And depend on the extra bit set, it can keep sprite in its mouth instead and spit back to player if player comes closer to it.
Sideway/Stationary version would be great too!

My Request is Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA) Red Shell

A red shell it's grabbed and throw killes enemies and can disappears in hit soild wall.

Linktree

These threads are a highlight of every C3!

Peekaboo Pokey
Requesting a Pokey (a cactus, so it counts) that moves in and out of the terrain like a wooden spike. It can either remain stationary or continue chasing Mario, and maybe it can either move on a timer or ambush Mario when he gets close.

Other Submissions of mine!

I am always a bit too late for this lol...anyway I'll try this time to ask for a request, which I think could be fun:

A carryable pot sprite, which becomes a growing vine when thrown on the floor.

A Plant Man (Mega Man 6) boss fight

https://www.deviantart.com/izzyvicious/art/Mega-Man-6-Robot-Master-16-bits-729383643 for the sprite sheet

Hello, it’s my first time participating on a C3 event. So, let me get this straight; here’s my request . . .

Name: 3-Digit Star Coin Overworld Counter

Type: UberASM/PATCH

Description: A 3-Digit Star Coin Overworld Counter that tracks the number of star coins collected in the game. It can be similar to this patch but instead, the counter shall be at the overworld corners, not on the status bar.

I believe that this patch will be in handy especially when using lx5’s NSMB Star Coins Patch.

kent.miscs

I mostly want an Elite Venus Fire Trap that comes in two varieties - short and long stem, with the functionality is that it shoots out 3 or 5 fireballs, depending on the bit set, that homes in on Mario and homes in on him fast. The plant btw should also take like, 5 fireballs to be killed and should be immune to cape swing. Can be instantly killed via shell/throw block, and starman.

Modern Redrawn Mario Bros. 1.5 (last update - February 14, 2023, some new bonus frames, tons of minor touchups to various poses)

On Pixel Art Requests: Depends on what it is and if I have the time for it. If its complex and I don't have the time, don't expect me to accept it.

Projects I support:


Collapsed text: Show/Hide

[19:43] <StrikeForcer> I also want to say that "because everything on the internet is definitely true!" is a derailment tactic that serves as a shorthand change for "I dont accept the facts"

[19:44] <StrikeForcer> When the information posted clearly is fact-based.

How about a Jumping Piranha Plant that spews fire like the Mario Forever plant?
