So, first off, I wanna thank Marina for having led this project for so long. However, he doesn't really have the time to do that now, so he won't be doing as much for it now. As such, this project will now be mostly updated by me (seeing as Blue is kind of... banned).



Introducing... World 9!

Well, kinda.

Because you can only access 9-1.

Spoiler: show

.railimaf adnik smees tahT

There's no way to access the other levels. We removed it because we weren't up to the responsibility. Sorry, folks. You can still visit World 9, but you won't be able to access the levels.

Spoiler: show

World 9's map. That Castle is inaccessible, too. We only put it there to rub the fact that you can't get there into your face.

As for other progress, I think we're doing pretty well atm. We've gotten quite a bit of stuff done, so I hope you look forward to the finished Episode!

Spoiler: show

Don't worry, SMB1X also features the spookiness you'd expect from an AAA game. I mean, aren't you just completely spooked out by that gray pillar in contrast to the blue tileset and the floating black tile?

With that being said, I apologize that we weren't able to finish World 9. But who knows, sometimes you don't need much to have fun, and sometimes you have even more fun this way. How about some more screenshots instead?

Spoiler: show

Also, I wanna thank bossedit8 for making 2-2, screens of which he's already posted here, and Darkonius Mavakar for making a level which you can see in one of the screens in this post.

The most stunning graphics, like Super Mario Bros. 1 is definitively. Keep up!

Thank you for being honest, but I don't have a good feeling about cutting levels out. Once I started cutting out features in Yoshi's Island X, I started to realize that the project was on its death knell. I commend you for not biting off more than you can chew, but sometimes the paring down is symptomatic of not liking the game as a whole.

So is world 9 like the destroyed reverse world? Or rather, was the destroyed reverse world?

[Alagirez]

these new screens looks good, especially the airship ones and i like the GFX! although there are some cutoffs in the 9-1 world screen.

Regarding everyone's World 9 concerns: ; )

Regarding Harvey36Dice's comment: I'll see what I can do, but personally, I really like Marina's idea of putting that grass on a castle.
If I remove it from 9-1, I might use it somewhere else ; )

Btw, this project is having its 1 year anniversary on 11/15, so expect something there ; )

who knew that when i said "this will probably be finished by february" i meant february 2016

Wasn't it February 2020?

Jokes aside, those screenies are really cool, I see flawless NPC placement and good tileset mixing.

[Ness-Wednesday]

Nice design on the world 9 map, but where are the levels.
Is world 9 literally just a toad house and a castle?

[underFlo]

No, as I said, it's only 9-1

; )

[underFlo]

1 Year Anniversary (except I'm an hour late oops)!!!



Introducing... The Minus World!

What's that? It seems like there's some... interesting stuff that's been cut coming back from the grave!

Spoiler: show

oops?

In each world, there is an entrance to the infamous Minus World. Some are easy to find, but some are a bit more tricky.

Spoiler: show

The... map for this world.

At the end of each level in this world, you'll find a Minus Star:



What do they do? Nobody knows. But many say that they're the key to "special worlds", at least before they went through the limbo of getting cut.

Spoiler: show

Some of those levels look... weird. Thanks to Darkonius Mavakar for this masterpiece.

That brings the total number of levels in Super Mario Bros. 1X up to 45, compared to the 32 levels found in Super Mario Bros.! We hope you're looking forward to experiencing each and every one of them.

[Artemis008]

I love everything about this except minus world,

[Emral]

Hahahaha the EZ mushrooms. Genious. I really like the corrupted map as a whole.

[Darkonius Mavakar]

I r maek gud levil deisgl

[Erik]

Well, at least it's better than my world maps...
But ehhhm, that minus world looks kinda interesting.

[h2643]

I'm in love with the new update. The Minus World is going to be the main reason for me to play this game :')

[braineat]

Background on second screenshot in minus world looks like Little Nemo the Dream Master.

[Murphmario]

I approve of the Minus World...

I do not approve of it's style mixing though.

[underFlo]

man who knew glitches had to meet a certain style

they really love their freedom and you hurt their feelings ;(
