Very nice screen. The dark colours certainly create a very mysterious and rainy feel to the level. I really like the pipe corners as well. One thing is that I'd probably change the colours of the Bomb Boos mouth; I don't really like the yellow, I think you should probably change it to black.

I think it looks okay, and if I made it black it would be kinda hard to see, because of the pretty dark BG. Also got the problem of the boos not working with explosion sensitive blocks fixed :3
Just thought I'd show some more of the exploding boo level. Also thought that I should tell you that I had a hard time not stoping SMW hacking yesterday, but I'm okay again :3
As you can hopefully see in the last two screens I decided to use dissappearing and re-appearing blocks in the level as another gimmick.
Hah, Nice Gimmick Underway, and I'm loving the Level Design!
Now I'm getting the title thing. Choconilla Rise: as you progress, the amount of chocolate stuff is gradually implemented. And you're doing well. Still I didn't find an answer to how did you apply this brightness gradient over the Layer 3 BG without using the SMW brightness register. But I don't care, I won't be using this kind of stuff in my current team project.
Anyway, it's always nice to see some more progress here.

Actually it's not, I guess that's just me mixing up the style a bit and trying to get the most out of it.
The gradient is a normal HDMA color gradient btw. The Layer 3 clouds are just transparent.
Just fellt like drawing a little concept art for this level. Hope you like it :3
Heh, Nice Drawning, also, are 10 Secs to the Block Appear/Disappear?
I like the idea a lot... But looking at the Graphics used couldn't you make something like a slowly growing ghost? Whatever... This Hack is gonna be Great! C3 stuff: http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=67626 HDMA-Codes and Custom Music included!

No, but it takes the bomb boo ten seconds to explode.
Thought I would show of more of level 6. Sorry for the inconsistency when it comes to working on what I started and sorry for taking so long to finish levels 3:
E: Note that moon song is just a filler. If anyone has an idea of what would fit instead which fits nicely, please tell me!
Something about the quality of your hack makes it look so smexy, keep it up-- awesome work!
Seems Really Awesome Underway, the Level Design is Really Impressive, also, the Moonsong looks nice for the level, but if You want to try other... ok, I don't have suggestions on the moment.
So, progress is still going slow. Winter is one of my slowest seasons :<
I just got the permission from Tahixham to make my own extendabar, so if you want to use it here's the preview and the code you have to put in your signature.
Also here's a screen I might use in CR. I'm not sure yet, though.
this chained castle block is one of the most gorgeous thing to ever grace my eyes.
That being said: The only problem i see with the screenshot is the waterfall's palette. don't know if is only me, but they seem to be part of the FG instead of the BG.
But sweet screen! I like the half grassed stone block Mario's standing on and the HDMA, but as Ludus said, the waterfall seems a bit dark.My Youtube-Channel
Currently working on: nothing *eyes roll*
Ludus: Thanks for commenting here once again ^^ And thanks for the feedback. I know the waterfalls look kinda out of place, but I already tried making them lighter and darker, but it's really hard to get right.
Urte: I mean that my hacking is pretty slow in winter ;) And thanks for the comment :3
I keep forgetting about this thread, even though it has some amazing level design in it. That pic right there... wow, the palettes and mixture of graphics is great! I am putting that bar in my sig to remind me of this thread, I am forgetful haha.
