Mario Vs. The Deadly Alliance

Standard

Well...long time no see, SMW Central! Let me start off with intro. I'm SpoodahBro. For those of you who don't know [Or probably forgotten], this is actually my second account. I used to go by the name "SuperLario". But that was like in 2013. I also was in the process of creating a hack during that year called "The Adventures of Lario". However, many many many things had happened that required my attention and I just wasn't in the hacking mood; so I put the project on ice altogether, hoping to regain my flow. Unfortunately, that may have been a massive mistake because with how long I waited to get back into hacking; MANY THINGS have changed since I started hacking. New tools, New Utilities, A brand new version of Lunar Magic, New conveniences, you name it. This made things rather difficult for me. Well, come 2018; my flow returns and I decided to get back into it and adapt to the new stuff.

So with that out of the way, I present to you a new hack in the making!

--Mario Vs. The Deadly Allience--
[Not associated with Quan-Chi and Shang Tsung from Mortal Kombat]

INTRO [SUBJECT TO CHANGE]
Five unnamed baddies in Bowser's Kingdom have been forming a group of their own after having been fed up with Bowser's incompetence and failure. Well finally, these five unknown enemies, referring to themselves as "The Deadly Alliance", finally make their move unbeknownst to Bowser. The five hijack Bowser's newest castle in the Quadra Region and take it upon themselves to kidnap the Princess. Mario must now hurry to the Quadra Region and save the Princess from this new imposing threat.

OBJECTIVE
After the first world, Mario will enter the Main Island of the Quadra Region. This island is connected to four separate islands. Each island will have a means to travel to take Mario to its designated world. The objective is to go through the world, beat the member of the Deadly Alliance who inhabits said world and activated the Switch in the Switch Palace. All four switches must be activated in order to access the Final World. Mario can go in any order as he pleases, though difficulty may vary.

SCREENSHOTS
World 1 - Precious Plateau


1-1 [Goomba Greens]


1-2 [Hilltop Heights]


1-3 [House of Hammers]


1-4 [Frantic Fishies]


Castle 1 [Boom-Boom's Bastion]


ADDITIONAL NOTES
So what I'm going for in this hack is keep it at a mid-range. Not too long and not too short. When I mentioned that "Difficulty may vary", I mean that in the sense that it depends on what island world you wish to go to. Once you beat the 1st world, its really up to you on what order you want to go.

This hack is being made under the same vein as Donkey Kong Country. By that I mean that every level will have its own theme/gimmick to it. Sure it may seem difficult to pull off, but the results will be well worth it for me.
------------
And that's about it. I'm not sure when this thing will be finished. Knowing my luck, this hack will probably see itself being released sometime in 2019, if I'm being generous. However, this hack will not suffer the same fate that Adventures of Lario faced......I hope #ab{>_>}

I'll be posting more screens of the upcoming Worlds and Levels as time passes~! #tb{^V^}

This is exactly why I came to the thread though. ;_;

Either way looking really nice, I'm mostly liking the looks of the House of Hammers and the castle level. The castle level is more my favorite as I've always loved the themes of the SMB3 Fortress levels.

Thank you very much~! I'm glad you think so. While I am happy to know that I've completed the starting World, I still got a long way to go. But progress is a smooth as it should be #smw{:TUP:}
-PROGRESS REPORT-

Been working steadily on this Hack! With the free time I had, I was able to work on the entirety of Wordl 2! I'm now happy to report that World 2 is now complete. So with that said, here's some screens!

SCREENSHOTS
World 2 - Spearmint Summit


2-1 Perilous Platforms


2-2 Vicious Vegitation


2-3 Enchanted Emerald


2-4 Temple Turmoil


2-5 Flooded Forest


Castle 2 - Spina's Spire

I saw that you're working steadily on your hack!

Looking at the screenshots you took, the map for World 2 looks great. There were no flaws at all for this map, and therefore it had a nice, clean design.

World 2-1, the first screenshot featured some question blocks, but the top ones should probably be removed. My reason for this is because it will allow more room to be made for Mario to actually jump/spin jump over the pipe with a green piranha plant. Another reason is to avoid excessive question blocks.

World 2-2, the first screenshot question - It's a great level design with two pipes and above them, a chargin' chuck punting footballs. My real question with the dragon coin after collecting it is, are there hidden blocks above it so that way you're not stuck?

World 2-3, I love the design of the level for both screenshots! Excellent level design and I also love the green magikoopa!

As far as the rest of the screenshots go, the levels are amazing. Keep it up!

Castle 3 - Fraud's Factory

This is my first time on this certain thread. And this hack looks really good so far! And I love how even the sprites have custom made (presumably) shared palettes, which is very... VERY rare in hacks. Even though colors are a little unsaturated this isn't that much of a problem visually. Unless were talking about palette B(the blue palette.) Because that's more of a grey with barely a slight lavender hue than blue. Even the lavender color in the original SMW looks more blue than that! So all I ask is to please replace that repulsively hideous grey color with a more brighter blue. Other than that this hack is going great!

I love you! I'm a girl.

As it snows, the atmosphere is very unstable and lightning keeps hitting me. ㅠㅠ

I like the cartoon character of the girl the most.

This place will update photos every month.

I might put out a demo really soon. Like maybe around Early July. Although, I'm nearly completion with this hack (Even though there's still a few things I need to change)

That being said~! More Progress!!

-PROGRESS REPORT-
After weeks of work, I have completed World 5! And with that, all 4 main islands have been completed! What's left to work on now is finishing and cleaning up the main overworld. And once that's done, I can finally move on to the main attraction itself; the final World; World 6. But for now, enjoy new screens!!

How come you haven't changed that ugly lavenderish grey palette yet? Was it the way I came off as?

I'm alittle confused on what exactly you are referring to XD if you can pinpoint that "lavenderish grey palette" you are finding unsavory (Like perhaps find the screen in particular), please show it to me so I can quickly examine it

Well... Presumably everything that uses palette B the 4th of the sprite palettes.https://media.smwcentral.net/Diagrams/PaletteSets.png(The palette for all bluish lavender objects.https://media.smwcentral.net/Diagrams/Sprites_using/0B.png)
If that's to technical here are some examples of the objects that use said pallete.
1. The Urchin on the second picture of Frantic Fishies.
2. The Koopa Shell Mario is holding on the second picture of Flooded Forest, and the urchin again on the 3rd picture.
3. The Disco spotlight ball thing is on this palette in both pictures of Switchlight Stroll. (Also the Galoomba's Wings and the Hammer in the second picture.)
4. The Message Box in Tricky Topaz.
5. The first balloon in the first Picture of Balloon Boom.
6. The Rotodisc on the second picture of Mowsa's Manor.

Ah yes the standard Blue the came with SMW...yeah I didn't like that blue, but I didn't think to change it. But since you brought it up, I decided "what the hell?" and went with it.

How's this?
A lot better. Thanks! Can't wait to see the hack completed!
Hey Hey Hey! I'm back everyone~!! Sorry about the loooonnng absence. I took an...unannounced break from hacking due to some...many complications IRL. I won't go into too much detail as there are alot of downs that I...really don't want to get into. On the plus side, I've been keeping busy with a job; so that's good! But hey, you ain't here for that. Your here to see the latest updates.

I'm in the process of playing through the finished levels in order to find any bugs, issues, etc. I'll be posting a few screens of a level that isn't part of the main 4 islands. Also, recently, I've decided to change things up and added a few new levels; Secret Levels. These levels will be just as hard (if not harder) than the others.

But for now!! Here's a thing I can show~ The main Overworld, The Quadra Region



Stay tuned. I've got a few more screens prepared!
Man, I wish I could build overworlds like this.

But besides the point, I'm definitely going to be following this. I like the graphics and the design and also like the pallet choices. This seems like a really interesting and good romhack.

Thank you kindly~! I'm working as hard as I can with this hack~! We are nearing the completion too! Speakin of which, onward to a new post.

Here's a level that isn't part of the main islands; but a main quest level regardless. Its the level you do before you make your way to the Main Islands.

-Quest For Quadra-

So say you've managed to beat all the islands, defeated the 4 members of The Deadly Alliance, and have pressed all of the colored Switches. What happens now? Well it would now be a good time to make your way to...

-The Switch Bridge-

This is level serves as your typical "Road to the Final World", kind of deal. However, you aren't able to gain access unless you have activated all four switches.



But if you do manage to press all the switches and activate the Bridge; you'll be able to make your way to World 6.......provided you get past this level first.





As for World 6 itself, I'm just about finishing up the final level before the Big Bad Castle itself. Once that level is complete; I'll show off World 6 in all its glory~
