You should probably make it so that the fucking dummy doesn't have like a hundred HP.

what the fuck

Why bother having be based on Mario?

Take what you know and make it unique so that you can actually monetize it.

>>282593032
I'll take note of that. The reason it's so bulky is so the tutorial event processing can run through completely without it getting cut short due to the dummy dying. The amount of health it has makes it so every turn it can be hit with a critical hit and live until Luigi is done teaching you things.

>>282592348
Yes, it is.

>>282592237
It should be able to.

>>282592614
Thanks. So do I, life has sucked ass lately. This has kept me going really

I don't get this meme

Is it because of the Smashfags begging for him?

Why are the goombas so fuckin' hard to beat god damn.

>>282594123
They really aren't

Two punches, that's it. By the time you hit level 2-3 they're pretty easy to take out in one hit

Are we even playing the same game?

Can I make my punches stronger somehow?

>>282594886
There's a weapons shop in one of the later towns.

Sorry man, I'll lower their defenses. I just wanted some tough-ish enemies to battle, not one hit kills. :(

I am, however, working on implementing a system where if you are a certain level, you instantly kill enemies without battling them, like in Earthbound. Level 5+ instantly kills Goombas, 8+ instantly kills Koopas, etc.

bump

Anyone made it to Mushroom Way yet?

>>282595407
If the game has a badge system (I'm >>282594783) I think Paper Mario had a badge that did that.

>>282595407
Those levels seem a little bit too low. How about level 10+ for Goombas and 15+ for Koopas?

Holy shit I hate this, OP. Getting to level 1 is a huge pain when you're hoping you can kill a fucking goomba before it kills you. And you can't just skip them either since the fuckin' koopas are immune to punches later on.

You're making me grind for goombas, op.

GOOMBAS.

Look into that. Also I don't think death is a topic of discussion in the mushroom kingdom so you might want to update that to something like 'fainted' or 'K.O.'d'

As a matter of fact, what difficulty did you guys pick?

>>282597991

How can I make it more sunset like?

>>282592101
I think the Koopa noise Parakarry makes is a little unnecessary. And Luigi's dialogue was moving automatically.

>>282598364
It's supposed to do that in the opening cutscene. It is a cutscene, after all.

I can fastfall if I press down while jumping

normal difficulty

Here's another little bug I discovered by groundpounding into the pipe.

If you stand ontop of the green pipe and tap left or right, he automatically walks slowly to the edge and falls off

Might I suggest adding a small delay to the ground pound instead of being so instant much like it is in the games.

Nice touch with him sliding when he stops and not an instant stop

Okay, how am I supposed to get past the dummy? It's kicking my ass no matter what I do?

>>282598194
Hard
The dummy keeps killing me, even after guarding

>>282598194
ground/dirt should not be glowing red. infact I might suggest only making the background be the sunset instead of drowning it in koolaid

>>282599056
I'm on Normal. It's the same for me.

>>282598580
>>282598827
Yes. That's ground-pounding.

I just realized I never explained that. Fuck.

There's a block in the forest that's ground pound-able.

Speaking of which, sorry for no ground-pound or jumping animations yet. The default script doesn't allow that, and the only script that does was a script some guy paid for and isn't publically available.

>>282598863
>If you stand on top of the green pipe and tap left or right, he automatically walks slowly to the edge and falls off
It's due to the game wanting to get off the event. I'll try to fix it if I can.

I can see if I can add a delay to ground-pounding.

And thanks. Trying to be as Mario-like with the physics as I can.

>>282599056
Welp. I'll lower his attack for the next demo.


>>282599117
Okay. I'll try that.

>>282599003
Just whoop it's ass. Attack all the time, ignore Luigi.

>>282599150
I'm able to live on Normal. Huh.

Has anyone made it to Mushroom Way or beyond yet? Or is everyone stuck with the Dummy?

I can't believe you've forced me to pick easy.
Shame on you, Questy.

>>282594783
Can cats eat burgers?

>>282599252
I'm on normal, and every time, the dummy does 75 damage to me on his first attack, instantly killing me.

>>282599968
Go ahead! Be prepared for some roughness. That Dummy is unforgiving.

>>282600106
If you could do that, you'd skip instantly to night time. Which isn't okay.

>>282600258

when I'm on a pipe, and I press left or right then let go, mario keeps walking until he falls off the pipe.

>>282600706
I believe pressing F1 brings up a little menu that allows you to customize controls.

>>282600709
If you press Z while it's going, it automatically loads the whole box. But yeah, I'll try to add that.

Okay but seriously they're way too fucking strong, even on normal
I mean, 20 fucking damage?
When you only have like 70 HP?

Alright OP, I'm stuck in mushroom way
Can't quite get to the mount next to the ground pound block
Also, a few tips

>make it so Mario/Luigi get damaged when trying to jump atop a spiny
>try and make it so you can damage enemies when you jump on them outside of battle and shit, except for spinys
Other than that, pretty good, Lakitus are the kings of dodging

>>282601646
Well, the switches are supposed to be a secret thing. It gives you an incentive to find what the switch affected. Exploration, you know? And it isn't a chore because all switches (except the bridge one) turn on blocks in the same map.

>>282602369
Sorry man, that's how the engine works.

>>282602418
I tried doing that, but it resulted in the game just freezing.

>>282603010
I'll try that.

>>282603246
That's where the Thwomps hitbox ends. I'll make it taller so you can't get on top of him.

>>282603571
Are you on hard or intense? Or Normal they do about 8 damage.

>>282603672
>action commands
Do you mean like timed hits?
>make it so Mario/Luigi get damaged when trying to jump atop a spiny
I can do that, I think.
>try and make it so you can damage enemies when you jump on them outside of battle and shit, except for spinys
I don't think I can do that.
>Lakitus are the kings of dodging
It's cause they're flying, so they're hard to hit. They're super weak in the HP department, so if you hit them once or twice they're dead.

Thanks!

>>282603938

Why not?

>>282603938
I'm on Normal, and the Goombas do at least 20 damage.

>>282604075
Huh. Idk what happened. It's fine for me. I've lowered some enemies stats, so next time it'll be all good.

>>282604140
I'll see if I can do timed hits.

I can't do the hurting enemies outside battle because there's no way (that I know of) that I can give enemies damage when there's no battle in progress.

>>282604252
Shit. I've reduced their attack.

Okay, my game crashed when i used Mario's FireFlower special, a pop up came up saying there was a Null somethingsomething error. That really pissed me off...

But here's my feedback for the bit that i played.
-Like the combination of the classic Mario platforming and the RPG. The invisible blocks, switched, total plus.
-Instant Game Over for falling is not great. How was i supposed to know the green star was hiding in the 3rd pitfall without having to fall and check?
-Characters need to be fully restored when they level up. Was completely caught off guard during the Koopa fight in the castle dineroom since my health was low from training against Goombas.
-Like i said above, my game crashed the minute i used Mario's Fireball skill.

I see alot of potential in this game and hope to play the next demo. Please make Rosalina playable. PLEASE

>>282604359
I can't even level up to get past the koopas, so an easier demo would be appreciated.

>>282603938
>intense
Unless you've put out an updated demo, you can't beat the dummy on intense anyways.

>>282604359
Can't you make a condition for that stuff?
Or are the plataforming and battle events completely separate?

>>282604428
yeah, marios fireball keeps crashing my game everytime

>>282603938
>Sorry man, that's how the engine works.

Then remove all slopes from your game or better yet get a better engine. Game Maker studio can handle slopes.

Have you even played your own game or are you just making us do that for you

>>282604428
Thanks for the feedback!

>Instant Game Over for falling is not great. How was i supposed to know the green star was hiding in the 3rd pitfall without having to fall and check?
I'm surprised you found that. I don't think I can do another way. I've tried to have it just reduce your HP, but the engine freezes the game when you die and plays a common event. I've tried editing the common event, but to no avail.
>Characters need to be fully restored when they level up. Was completely caught off guard during the Koopa fight in the castle dineroom since my health was low from training against Goombas.
Can do. I think.
>Like i said above, my game crashed the minute i used Mario's Fireball skill.
No idea why that happens. I'll have that fixed for next time.

I think the writing could be worked on a little. It kind of feels like it's from an NES RPG. Of course, the gameplay should be the top priority.

>>282604902
Hey, have you considered starting the player out with some shitty equipment? Like maybe Gloves and Overalls or Shirt as a weapon and armor, respectively. Just to ease things a bit.

>Exploration, you know?

Don't blame the game engine when you still chose to include slanted roof when you can't climb it. That's on you.

Also If you climb up the ladder and just hold up, when you reach the top you just fall straight down.

>>282605498
>Can't talk to him because can't walk up slopes
You can jump up it, he gives you a 1-Up Mushroom for finding him.

>>282604879
I've played it. Never saw the slopes as a problem.

>>282604904
Thanks!

>>282605134
Wow, that's great. It's a shame I've already done so much art, I'd totally change the art style to that. If you'd like to help with that, of course...

>>282605142
Is that a good thing? If not, how could the writing be changed?

>>282605241
I was going to, but it negated damage from weak enemies like the Goomba.

>your game is very anti- exploration right now
Yeah. The first part is very linear. But it opens up past the forest. It's supposed to start out easy.

Like I've said, as of now that's how it's gonna be.

that's about the speed I download everything

>>282606103
If you've implemented slopes in an environment where the player can move around, but the player can't interact with that terrain in the same way they can with all other terrain, then you have to ask yourself, from a design standpoint, why slopes were implemented.

If it's for aesthetic reasons, then don't let the player touch them. If it's part of the playable environment, then you should be able to interact with it in a meaningful way, which in this case would be walking up or down them. I understand if it's an engine limitation, but if that's the case then design around it instead of ignoring the issue.

tl;dr: Make the slopes work or get rid of them.

>>282604359

>Sadly, they are completely separate scripts.

>>282606103
>If not, how could the writing be changed?
It might just be me, but it felt a little "barebones". I felt like there were a few lines that could have been phrased better. And the NPC's in the Mushroom Town all seemed to be saying pretty much the same thing.

But like I said, the gameplay issues should be figured out first. Especially the difficulty and the game over from pits.

>>282606103
look at (>>282602369) again. no room on either side of him to talk to him. Can't follow my instinct and just walk up them. I can only talk to him because I can jump on his head to talk to him.

If you don't see the issue with any of this, you do not need to be making video games.

>>282606676
Ok. I understand. They're only there to prevent the castle from having a blocky look

Go back to PokeQuest 2 you cuck.

how far along is this shit?
What engine are you using?
Planning on releasing it for a cost or is it just something you do for fun/will be free?

Download's not starting for me so I can't try it out. Oh well.

You will put this in your game.

We will find it.

If you do not, then we will have know you have not been updating your game or showing it somewhere else.

Our help comes at a cost.

official website?
Also I noticed the subtitle on the game but is there any chance you could fucking not call it mario RPG? Since there's like 4 games with that exact title already.

>>282610005

I think this is it: http://drawquesty.tumblr.com/

lol

When you are in danger, the battle music becomes distorted.
Will you warp all the battle music when you are hurt, or will it be the same track.

>>282610005
http://drawquesty.tumblr.com/

Yeah, it's not gonna be called Mario RPG. The official name is "Super Mario and the Valley of Shadows." It's the least edgy name I could do that still relates to the plot. I'm not gonna spoil it, but it's a kicker.

>>282610163
>lostboy.exe
?

>>282610190
I can try to do that. Glad you noticed that little touch.

I noticed that the Flower Tab claims to raise FP by 10.

It rose mine by 23.

>>282610298
Forgot my trip, sorry.

>>282610367
It raises it by 10 and restores all of it.

Would be nice if you got some one to help you work on this both writing and art wise. The sprites are complete dog shit and "The Valley of Darkness" sounds fucking retarded

that's a neat name, but why not just go with the name in the title bar?

>>282610560
I like the art for hte most part, you can tell it's all squished up to fit requirements for height/width though.

Writing's uh... Well, it's pretty much what I expected. I'm sure if questy posts the script so far some kind anon would be happy to do a rewrite.

I read earlier that you cannot make it so that you lose 1 damage instead of getting a gameover when you fall in a pit.
Is there anyway to possibly teleport the player to the beginning of the area rather than reloading a save?

>>282610542
Oh, I thought the number was showing the max. My bad.

>>282610560
I would like help, but I'm disappointed you don't like the art. I tried to make it look good.

>>282610748
nice meme, bro

>>282610951
I'll do that in another thread, maybe. We could have a development thread tomorrow

>>282611080
It's all good.

>>282611235
>http://drawquesty.tumblr.com/
Questy. I'm more than willing to assist in editing your writing scripts if you'd like. I can email you at the feedback address you posted.

>>282611513
I think he should post the scripts in a thread tomorrow (I'm sure they're not THAT heavy at the moment), and either let anons decide, or decide for himself from a pool of candidates.

Least, seems more logical to do that than hand out scripts to the people who will ask.

Plus this way we'll be able to see who actually gets shit done instead of someone who asks then never finishes the rewrite.

What kind of combat is this? Like mario lugi/paper/rpg snes? Or classic JRPG turn based?

>>282610560
Sadly 4chan as a whole tends to eat up anything made by themselves without giving any sort of criticism. Just look at the drawfag threads. There's probably only 2 actual artists who draw maybe one or two things in those threads, while the 40 other people are just people requesting. And those 40 other people will lap that crappy shit up like a hungry dog without giving them any criticism. Its like when a kid shows their parents their drawing and the parents feel obliged to tell them it looks really good even though its not.

>>282611739
The latter.

Hey yo I can actually write and stuff, do you want me to uh, well frankly rewrite the script from the ground up?

>>282612126
No memes. Just getting that out there.

>>282612174
I said I could actually write. That's like, the opposite of memes.

Snide references to other Mario games? Sure, but no may mays.

>>282611513
That would be great! I'd love help with that.

>>282611703
I can do this, too.

>>282611739
At the moment, it's more like the latter. Hoping to get it to the former.

>>282612126
Sure, I'll make a text file of the script and post it in a thread tomorrow.

>>282612613
Tomorrow eh? I suppose I'll have the day to kill so that should be fine. Guess I'll be waiting, what time do you plan on posting it, same time as today or earlier?

>>282612613
Just post it in a pastebin instead. People are wary of downloading shit if you couldn't tell from the various lostboy posts.

>>282613092
Earlier. I have the day off tomorrow, so I have all day to do some developing with you guys.

>>282613237
Ok. I never heard of lostboy until today because of this thread. I looked it up, and now I'm spooked.

>>282613430
Well I look forward to giving you a rewrite cause frankly your writing sucks ass. At least your art is passable, but work on bypassing the 32x32 limit cause the koopa, for instance, in >>282610748 looks like he's got to take an enormous shit.

hello, I recived [pic related] bug while playing the game. Also, after streaming it, I have found a few notible things I would like to report. Alot of these are mainly "Hey its an early demo so no shit this happened" but I'd like to make it known anyway.

1. At first, I played the game on normal, it was impossible to beat a goomba with out it missing twice, there needs to be some serious ballance changes.
2. going on part 1, after I put it on easy and leveled up, nothing, not even the boss could touch me.
3. Wall jumping needs to be worked on inorder to not seem random.
4. I think you should put a classification on equipable items, I didnt know shirts and overalls fall into the same slot.
5. Accuracy for luigis fire wall attack was really bad, not sure if this was on purpose
6. This is my most important complaint. Having A as jump is really uncomfortable for the hands, set it to space bar or simply just use the ZXCV for any left hand buttons in the game.

Other than this, amazing start Questy, keep up the good work, really looking forward to some cool platforming in this game!

>>282613724
I don't get how it sucks ass, there's barely any writing at all

Unless that's it

And personally I think my art is fine. I would like something more like >>282605134
but I've done too much already

>>282614006
>At first, I played the game on normal, it was impossible to beat a goomba with out it missing twice, there needs to be some serious ballance changes.

Noted. Balancing is pretty much all I've been doing for the last hour
>Wall jumping needs to be worked on inorder to not seem random.
How so?
> I think you should put a classification on equipable items, I didn't know shirts and overalls fall into the same slot.
Okay, can do.
>Accuracy for luigis fire wall attack was really bad, not sure if this was on purpose
It's on purpose to make it less OP.
>This is my most important complaint. Having A as jump is really uncomfortable for the hands, set it to space bar or simply just use the ZXCV for any left hand buttons in the game.
Ok, I can try that.

Thanks!

>>282605134
>>282614009
Yeah, his artstyle looks a lot better, to be frank.

Like, definitely gotta say try and remake the graphics to look similar to that, especially if he tries to help.
Just my two cents. If I could do sprite work I'd definitely try and help. Hell I might try and help anyways, if nothing else I'm sure I could try my hand at some backgrounds, or at least do some concept art for a more talented guy to attempt.

Not to try and put you down here, what you've done is impressive all things considered. Far more effort into this fan project than 99.999% of all of 4chan's fan projects past.
But it certainly needs work, and you seem smart and humble enough to realize that, so I applaud you.
Keep up the good work and I'll try and put some of my own work into it too.

>>282605134
Are you still here, anon? I really like you spritework and was wondering if I could get any tips on mine. I might do a graphics overhaul to match your style.

>>282614009
Personally, I like the one on the left better.
The one on the right looks like generic indie retro shit.

>>282614553
Thanks for all the help. I think I'm going to try the graphics overhaul tomorrow.

>>282614289
>How so?
it just didnt register at times, this might just be me not being good at it but id jump tword the wall and it just would not bump me up at times. Perhaps we should have mario put his hand up on the wall to show the frames he can wall jump (maybe even slow down a decent if its possible).

Also a question, will you be adding Mario and co. sound bites like "Thank you so much" and "Luigi number 1" I think that would add so much to it.

>>282614631
Yeah but the one on the right also looks a lot less... amateurish.

>>282614926
His doesn't look amateur, it just looks squashed to fuck because he hasn't figured out how to get around the 32x32 limits for sprites.

Also it's more colorful.

>>282615118
That's part of the reason it looks so amateur.

If he can get past the 32x softcap I'd be interested to see what he could make no doubt though.

>>282614631
Thanks.

>>282614835
I'd love to have an animation for that, but I don't know how. The base script doesn't allow it.

I might add voices, but right now, I'm not planning on it.

>>282615332
I could try to get past it. If I kept the hitbox still as 32x32 but Mario as 32x40 or so, the game would still be fine.

I'm a little attached to my portly Mario, though. But I'll change him.

>>282615929
He's too tiny. He looks like mini Mario rather than Super Mario. Try the 32x40 and see how that goes, it might look significantly better if he didn't look like he'd just got out from under a Thwomp and all.

>>282616368
Ok, I'll give it a go.

>>282605134
Wow someone beat me to it, I was gonna remake a bunch of sprites myself.

>>282617625
Huh, I guess the times just lined up as such that I've never seen these threads. Anyway, man, your game looks hella cool and I'll throw my two cents in along with everyone else's:

It's kind of a paradoxical bit of advice, but don't be a total yesman/people pleaser by changing every little detail that somebody brings up something about. You got to make the game in your own vision as well. You look like you have a good amount of potential and I would hate to see that be squandered by just pandering to the requests and complaints of everyone else.

>>282617727
Is it just you standing on the sky?

I mean your game is probably fucked up, you messed with the code

>>282617832
Thanks man!

I know, I'm a bit of a people pleaser. I guess that's my nature. Of course, if there's something I totally dislike, I won't include it.

Half of the stuff people are asking for today, I'll forget by tomorrow.

I can't sprint jump left, but right works fine.

The stuff like "muh slopes" and "muh pitfalls" are not me. They're the scripts I'm using, which with my lack of ability, cannot be changed.

I've gone to that part of the game where you were standing on the air and nothing happened. I just passed through it.

Say "I'll try it" instead of "I can't", communication is important if you're looking for help with bugs.

>>282625931
I say you should try learning some Ruby (or whatever scripting language RPG Maker uses) to improve your stuff. You can learn something new while you make this game, and you won't have to be limited by the base scripts that you're using.

>>282626036
Ok. I see how that can be confusing. Sorry Anon

An important thing to note that, you need to have a little more confidence in your work while posting on here, there are people on here who know how to get passed the limitations of RPG maker so don't be afraid to ask for help, just as, don't give up so easily.

>>282626331
Once you've got a good handle on the syntax and whatnot, try screwing around with your scripts and see what changes they make. There's probably a bunch of tutorials on how to script for RPG Maker if you're willing to look. Remember, you are the only barrier to your own improvement. I know you can make a good game, but only if you want it enough.

I'm offering him my help and he won't take it. You are coddling him. You will not help him grow by reinforcing that attitude.

Why was I able to break the game so quickly and easily? Because I fucking know what I'm doing and I want to offer that up because that's an opportunity I never got.

For one thing, your save file was fine. The platforming physics still worked.

Mario's level was insanely high, however.

I'd agree to your terms of helping me, but now you won't because "ooooh i told you how to outsmart me but now i won't!"

But if you are gonna help, then go right ahead.

>>282628828
You're literally bullying this tripfag for no discernible reason.

OP - Any chance of getting a little more uniqueness amongst the early enemies? There may be more that I'm missing (an NPC mentioned a fire weakness for the shellcreepers) but for the most part each enemy feels the same.

For reference - look at the prologue areas in SMRPG and Paper Mario. Enemies used abilities (even if they did nothing special) and had varied resistances and weaknesses.

Game is pretty cute so far. Keep up the good work.

It's nothing

Everything worked as expected

Now I'm afraid I'm gonna get spooked by some virus you attached on. But you seem like a decent guy so I hope you didn't

>>282629782
well I assure you the bug is there, and it has to do with the way you declared your variables hence why I expected it to show up in the save file.

Win a battle and see Luigi's level skyrocket also. I left that in so you could see firsthand.

He has the experience but your level up process doesn't activate until when experience is doled out (at the end of the battle)

>OP finds out there's nothing wrong
>Phil Fish stops shitposting

Would you look at that, the guy was a shitposter the whole time

>>282630324
Except the level up bug is still there

>>282630314
Okay, I'll try it out

>>282630314
Ok, I see. He had all the EXP backed up.

But why didn't he level up until then?

>>282630727
Until I see down and see your actual code it's all just guesswork. But I'm guessing it's because experience is a public variable. Is this correct? Also brb I have to run an errand but I will be back.

>>282631102
Yes, EXP is a public variable.

If you'd like the code I can get it to you later. It's currently 1:30 AM here and I'm planning on going to bed.

Goodnight everyone, thanks for the thread.

See you all tomorrow.

Sweat dreams, quest guy

>>282631542
I was able to use another part of your code to manipulate the memory to build up that much EXP. in-game programming if you will.

Have you seen that newest SMW speedrun where he manipulated the memory to play the credits sequence? It's similiar to that

>>282632896
I have. If you'd like to show me how to prevent that tomorrow (or should I say later today), that would be great.

Thanks for your help. I'm heading off to bed. Goodnight.

Found this when fighting some koopas in the first field after Peach got kidnapped.

>>282633802
That bug happens randomly, rarely. It can be fixed

I'm sorry Questy. I lied

Yes. Yes they do.
