Title: Wario Land
Post by: Strange Metool on September 17, 2011, 05:22:27 PM

So, this seems like an interesting concept... why not try it out?

Characters will come soon.

Stages will come soon.

If you want to join, just post below!

I'm basing it on Wario Land II right now, my first game.

Right now, I've...

Replaced the Dr. Light Lab song (MM9 Maze Of Death) with the first chapter's theme from WLII (One Noisy Morning)
Replaced all idle rotations


Progress. The colors come out different for the later frames I made, the oranges were changed to pink for some reason..

You're now a beta tester. I actually have Wario Land II for the GBC, by the way.

What the hell. I'll join in. I loved playing these games. Also, I know some who is obsessed with Wario land games. If you know who I mean >->

Hope this doesn't meet the same sad fate as the other expansions...

For skins, you could make the Gooms. That would be funny, seein a bunch of Pirate Gooms walkin around.  :)

Just so you know, Dusty already made a skin for Wario from Wario Land.

Alright, thanks for letting me know LlamaHombre.

And, if WL1 comes in mind, DarkAura already made a Bucket Head skin.

Pirate Gooms are awesome, right? They kind of remind me of Mets. Enemies will be made into skins, too.

Ive never gotten to play II but I'd say all of them, but start small like YD did with classes by starting with 1 (can I help with this in some way?)

Aura - If you would like to use BucketHead for this project, then I give you my permission to do so.

Lament - Massive train-of-thought ahead:
LOCKED UP THE THROTTLE!!!

Since you're doing Wario Land 3, will you impliment the treasures and music boxes into the game with some kind of ability? I did have some thoughts of an Adventure Mode with a huge map that details the entire Music Box Kingdom. At the start of the adventure, only the North section is traversable. After collecting the 1st music box and taking it back to the shrine, the music stops for a minute while the music box's song echoes throughout the map. Then the West section opens. This would repeat until the 4th music box when a path connects the East and North sections. Then, when the 5th and final Music Box is found and taken back, after it's music plays:

I'm not afraid to admit this theme makes me break out in tears
Then...out of the volcano...RUDY!
He thows his fists at you, and tries to grab you, throwing you into the ground afterwards. Shoot at the fists to destroy it which spawns a HammerKnuckleWep, to use against him. Don't worry, his hand respawns later. Once he's done and over with, THE END!

Now, I know I pretty much either described or spoiled the entire game, but I'm saying that this would make for an excellent concept for an Adventure Mode.

Also, if you need textures, I'll help out.

Wario Land expansion?

/me's head explodes

As a fellow fan and Cuckoo Clock, I approve.

ANd my god, I LOVED the third game. 5th and 4th both come close to a tie. They were pretty much my childhood in a cart, yep. Also Rudy's theme is badass

Progress!

The front and front-side sprites are done, and the front sprites have been imported into the skin.

Here's the sheet so far:

So...I'm guessing weapons (if you decide to add them) will work like Wario's 'power ups' ingame?

For example, there could be a Flattened ability which lets you get across large gaps, etc.

Title: Re: Wario Land
Post by: Strange Metool on September 19, 2011, 08:48:23 PM

I'll let people decide whether or not we have power ups/weapons in the game. Each skin will be like it is in the game. If are going to have powerups, we'd have to make extra sprites, lots of them, for it.

Title: Re: Wario Land
Post by: Magnet Dood on September 19, 2011, 09:15:39 PM

Yeah, perhaps it wouldn't be the best idea to add weapons. It would lag the game really badly.

Expansion still looks cool. :cool:

How would that happen? That's like saying all the weapons in mm8bdm lag the game.

Title: Re: Wario Land
Post by: Magnet Dood on September 19, 2011, 10:08:02 PM

Well, wouldn't all the sprites be bad for the game? If not, then I apologize. It would still be a ton of work, though.

I guess you could do flattened by doing the crouch pose though..

Title: Re: Wario Land
Post by: ice on September 19, 2011, 11:10:58 PM

I'm assuming this is just going to be a skin/map pack with nothing more just using mm8bdm weapons up until the classes trend hits this

Title: Re: Wario Land

Well, when there's skins like Wario and a (Pirate?) Goom, it would be horribly unbalanced if one made classes out of them. On one side, there's Wario, who would be able to charge, melee, ground pound (maybe) and do all sorts of things...Then there's a guy that walks around with a spear and would prod people.

Title: Re: Wario Land
Post by: ice on September 20, 2011, 06:38:49 AM

That would make for a awesome game mode though, one person becomes wario and the rest become gooms and you have to gang up to defeat wario
POWER TO THE MOOKS!

At this point, it's going to be a map/sound/skin pack, because I think powers are unnessecary, however, as ice said, there's game modes, so we could do that. Right now, I don't even know how to make maps, but I can edit textures or songs in maps, and I can make new skins and transcripts. I can also make weapons, bit that's most likely unnecessary for this.
