RISE feat. Other Projects (still dead as always, but somehow posts all of a sudden)

Thanks for the feedback, guys!

I'll have a video of one of the new levels up soon hopefully, I've just been waiting cause I don't want to show of too much again since I usually end up showing every last bit of my levels :p

I could give you some advice regarding on what to show if you do not want to show everything. First of all, I would suggest finishing all of the level (unless you are showing a few screenshots of a specific part of a level) then duplicate it. Edit your level to make it shorter by showing only the parts you intend to. Usually I would do this though with a hack that is as complex as yours it might be slightly difficult.

Just dropping some advice here, you have to obligation to use it. Looking forward to the video.

Stop trying too hard. Nonliner design sucks, you braley see it in any game, unless it's puzzle-ish.

More like, you suck for being a spammer. Underway/Undy is trying his best to make a great hack unlike you making spammy posts rather than posting positive feedback.

Anyway~

As for you Lely, I really like your palette styles since it's so free and nicely selected. However, I'm not really a friend with your foreground 'outlining' style since it looks pretty odd. I believe that Mario is also suffering from the rather odd-looking light brown color; I'd suggest to change it a bit darker.

Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback, but could you elaborate further on the outlining style you talked about? I don't really get what you mean.

I am really wondering how you got the castle rock background to shaped out nicely. did you use yy- chr?

Hey guys, I'm back from the dead!

First of, I just finished setting up a completly new rom. This is now basically a new hack and while it's going to be exactly like Choconilla Rise it still has a few new things to bring to the table.

1. It has a new name, #Offensive Hacking, that might keep people who are easily offended by lots of decoration away

2. I finally figured out how to use AMK without crashing the rom (it probably crashed because of conflicts with patches) so I can now easily use sampled songs!

3. I also applied edit's sprite message box patch which allows me to use message boxes even in levels with layer 3 and HDMA

4. I've learned a lot of new things, especially about ASM while I was working on my side project (which you're going to see at C3) so I'm going to be able to add some new effects to levels.

So now that you know what's new here let me show you a very short video and a few screenshots of some of the new features (Note that this is all for testing and not actual level design)! (I'm especially proud of the leafs that fall out of the littel palm trees )

Video Link!

This looks fucking nice Underway! I like the port and the new aesthectics you've implemented.

So zombies do exist..... ;D

Bright colours are something you always do well. Nice work as per dude!

I gotta get on Steam more to talk :x

That's a horrible name, especially for a Rom Hack like this. In fact, it doesn't sound serious at all. If this isn't supposed to be a joke hack, I'd highly recommend you to change the name back to "Choconilla Rise". I don't think people will get offended about your hack as much as in the past anyways, since you don't place decoration on every single block anymore. In my opinion, it's still a little more than I'd prefer, but it's completely fine.



Congratulations. But I don't think sampled songs will really fit your Hack from what it looks like. The atmosphere of sampled songs is very different from Super Mario World's atmosphere, that's why I think it only fits certain Hacks which goal it is not to feel like Super Mario World at all. Also, weren't you able to use Sampled Music before, by using either HuFlungDu's Addmusic or Addmusic M?



Sounds nice. I wonder why I never heard of it before



I don't know how advanced your ASM skills are at this point, but you could use them to create some cool features for sure ^^



Nice! I really like what I'm seeing. First of all, I think you really improved with pallettes. In my opinion, your older ones all looked like it will rain in about five minutes, but this looks really promising to me. The falling leaves from the palmtrees look very well made, especially I'm surprised that their appearance doesn't look too weird. If you'll use that tileset as it is now for a level, I'd highly recommend you not to use these pink trees too often, maybe only 4 or 5 times in the level. It's because your level is green and blue mostly, so the pink trees really stand out as something special and build up a nice contrast! If they will be used too often - for example more than 1 or even 2 palm trees on one screen - it will look like some pink dots in a green picture which won't look very good for my taste ^^[/b

I hope the leveldesign will be nice :3 Good luck with your project
Tag (b) was not closed.

Well, it is nice to see this hack is being worked, but I have some suggestions: The name. Just.. what? It makes it look like this is a joke hack. Just doesn't fit with the hack. The hashtag and the "offensive" word is mostly used as jokes now, and it just doesn't fit the hack. Your hack name should be something short; and it should tell about the hack in a few words. It also should be original.





What Nao said. I can't really say anything else.



Well.. I can't say anything about your level design since you've just shown 2 screens, but about the decoration and new effects: wow. These can be perfect if used right, however, I think you are overusing them. Just, don't try to make it perfect/too fancy. Just my opinion, but hey.

That is just Underway's style.

Looking at the screens and the video you have presented, I can tell that what used to be Choconilla Rise is heading in the right direction. The decoration does not seem to bother me too much now considering you have improved in design skills from what I have last seen. The waterfalls falling in the background look a bit weird in my opinion. Opinion is opinion however so I will not hold that against you.

And that's why one point is good. No, I don't think some SMW hackers are elitists who thinks they are superior than other hackers.

Looks cool here, I can't wait to see more screenshot!

You're right. It's some PEOPLE who are elitists who think they're better than other people; some of whom happen to be SMW hackers here.


Anyway, I really like the look of this hack. Everything seems so aesthetically well placed, coloured and thought out.

But......., what's with the title? Have you been catching flack for your methods? (not gonna read the thread at this moment, sue me) Cause if so, I don't know why. Though, I'm gonna give you some flack about the title. Please change it back. As others have said, I think it is ill-fitted.

My layout has removed you.

please keep the title. not enough serious hacks have quirky titles these days.

..And I don't remember they had ever before.

This hack sucks, to be honest. You're focusing too much on visuals and forgetting about level design. Plus, you use too much decoration and your palettes suck.

By the way, please stop copying my aesthetic and design style; this reminds me a lot of my hack's levels. Please change it, or I'll fire a moderator a PM about this.

I'm not copying anything, man. Also you actually opened the thread for your hack later than me so obviously you are copying from me here!
Also your criticism isn't really helpful. Plz get out.

Um, do you think Aeon got hacked?

Anyway, as I said earlier, I hope you do cool stuff. Ignore them haters.

i hacked aeon muahahaha and nobody can stop me muahahah


yeah i should stop shitposting

aeon is not hacked, he is not banned, he is not serious
