Mega Man Discussion / Re: Favorite Robot Master Set?

« on: February 13, 2011, 04:42:19 AM »

I think I'm the first to say Mega Man 9--not because of Splash-Woman.

Mega Man 9 did a good job of reminding us of our childhood frustration in the old games.  Tornado-Man acts almost exactly like Air-Man used to, Plug-Man's powerful attacks resemble Elec-Man's deadly Thunder Beam, and so on.

Hopefully this topic isn't too dead...

I had to figure it out.  The obituary for Plant Barrier was "Became Girlified."
...I know no one's supposed to see these, but really, Mike?  Really?  You couldn't say "uprooted" or something like that?

Skins & Bots etc / Re: BumpBump's Skins (TopHats Inside)

« on: February 13, 2011, 01:20:55 AM »

LOL, pretty simple designs here.

Two things:  One, if you look in my topic, you should see a Snow-Man spritesheet.  He has an amazing-looking top hat.  Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Two, how'd you get all the original sprites to modify a top hat onto 'em?  The only method I'd have for getting them out of SLumpEd is gruelingly printscreening each one...this could help me along with a skin I have planned, please respond!

Yeah, I could see how you would say that.  I realized that about halfway though, and I was like "dammit!"  because nothing's more annoying than swapping two adjacent colors to me.

Nonetheless, I'll get to work on it right away.

EDIT:  Done!  You all are right, it looks much better now.

What makes you say that?

Ah, well...thanks.  You've been very helpful.

Unfortunately, I've pretty much given up making Anchor-Man, BUT!  I have been working on something else.



That's right, I'm jumping on the Pokemon bandwagon, if only once.  As usual...what are your thoughts?

I actually recommend using Atomic Fire, not only because a good shot can chop off about 1/3 of his health--it's also closest to the Top Spin.  Once you deplete his health bar and get him on his knees, you have to use Rush Coil, jump up to his forehead, and finish him using Top Spin.

I'd been a fan of MM8BDM for a rather long time, thanks to a good friend back at Exploding Rabbit.  The second I heard about custom content, I jumped on board.

Yep, it's really that simple.

*runs off*

Double oh-no--not only did this submission probably kill of what little chance of victory I had left...you've now given me a dilemma on who to vote for.

If I may point this out--The Spriter's Resource has some great SMB tilesets, and they're at half-scale to the 32X32 size required.

Also, I think I'll take up doing SMB3 Luigi.  'Cause I have a pretty good idea of how to make him different from the existing SMB3 Mario.

So, what's the point?  We already made new ones, combining into a general expansion will only reduce quality via lack of specialization.

Well...
There's the Raccoon Leaf, which essentially gave Mario a melee attack and let them float by mashing the jump button.  Basically, Tanooki without the stone statue thing.  Not sure how to implement it.
The Frog Suit, makes you hopelessly and stupidly jump while on land, but makes you swim rapidly and efficiently in water.  Could slowly drain energy to allow "flight" within water areas, with...what allowed weapon?
The Poison Mushroom, from Lost Levels.  You know what it does.  I'm thinking of a powerful ground-trailing weapon like Bubble Lead, but a bit faster.
The Magic Mushroom, or Super Mushroom, if you prefer.  Could just be a health pack on steroids, but what fun would that be?  I have no idea what this would do, but I feel it should be represented if this is a Mario expansion.
Also, there were those potion-things and keys in Mario 2.  Kind of inapplicable, though.

Why not? The results go down to a public vote don't forget

Wait, didn't you say that you were judging them personally...?
*Reads the OP*
...My bad, got two different contests confused.  But, still, I do believe that there's a limit to how many options one can have in a poll--ten, if I'm correct.  As you can see...we have a whole lot more than ten submissions.

Doom, you need a serious attitude change.  We're doing what any sane person would do:  we're asking the guy that knows what he's talking about--we can see that because of the medals you have.  If you're going to continue to act like this, then maybe these medals really are useless.

Also, Gyro, you've posted asking this before.  Here was one of the responses it got:

MUSIC: put in music name there. GOOD DAY SIR.
