Custom Powerups System (CPS) + Powerup Claims

[PdizzleParker]

Idk how this would work but how about the cloud flower? You could press alt jump in the air to create a cloud, and you can only create 3 before you have to find another cloud flower. Also, your jumps would be more floaty.

I think Nova's already working on the Cloud Flower.

wouldnt a gun flower make more sense as a bullet bill cannon ....tho that already exists as a carryeable powerup lol
could give mario a portal gun tho ....no clue how that would work
also not really a power up but maybe an item called the smashshroom that basically turns mario into a beat em up sidescroller
meaning he can punch enemies etc like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3m40CmLk0w

It could work like Mari0 (Fangame)

any way to make it so mario can swim in lava or poison
like in super metroid where you can move in lava
perhaps some sort of obsidian flower power up

The only thing that could mess with that idea is that lava tiles are blocks, while water tiles are bgo tiles with the water liquid on top of them. You can tell that lava is a block because if you use the donthurtme (makes you invincible) cheat, you will stand on it.

That does complicate things....

What work is left until this gets released?

[GOD_SAMA]

I have no idea how it could be accomplished
But I feel like it shouldve been a thing a long time ago, having lava and water behave like it does in super Metroid I mean since that's the only game I can draw a comparison to
Maybe someone could figure this out , I don't have the coding know how to do so

Added in 58 seconds:
Episodes where you gotta traverse through lava or other liquids sound cool

Has the cloud released yet?

[Keroro04]

Hey, if I may make some suggestions for Power-Ups for this CPS system, how about something like a Cosmic Power-Up (Ala the Wario Master of Disguise Form of Cosmic Wario) which would give the player a straight, aim-able (not perfect aim, more like how SMM2 Link Arrows are aimed) projectile, while also letting player see invisible objects while they still have the form, whenever they hold the action button.

[GOD_SAMA]

any progress?

[Bulby_VR]

There's redundant mushrooms, fire flowers, ice flowers, and 1UP mushrooms... Maybe those could be changed to help save IDs if you're going for the "multiple powerups in one NPC" idea? Also, if you do this, leaf can have feather as its alt.

Reminder that there are 250 slots for custom npcs.

As for the topic in general, wouldn't it be smarter to have the powerup claims phase after the system is done being set up? I feel like the library is one that would even be worth releasing without any powerups inherently programmed for it, since as a "system" it would be completely modular.

I was thinking this exactly. I think this should be released without inherent programming so power ups can slot in.

[Neon358]

When these powerups become a reality, I'll be happy. Not that I am already happy now for someone to be mentioning them. I've been wanting SMBX38A powerups in SMBX2.

[King Mario]

Boomerang Suit and Beetroot Power-Up please? Unless someone can somehow get Tempest's Power-UPs to work in Beta 4.
Also SMW Cape Suit would be awesome, especially if someone could implement the SMW physics of it, like in a Rom Hack.

[TheGameyFireBro105]

As for when custom powerups will release -- it will be soon. I'm working on the Cloud Flower right now and when I get that done I will work to release the custom powerup system shortly after, which it is based on.

[Emral]

Interesting update. When this is released I think it will definitely be curious to compare the differences between this powerup system and anotherpowerup. I'm especially curious of how some edge cases are handled here..

samus speedbooster for mario https://giffiles.alphacoders.com/124/12426.gif
basically a powerup suit that makes mario have star power whenever he reaches a certain speed whilst running
and i know what yall gonna say
the suit would look like this



thats op and broken as hell but hear me out

it would function exactly like the speedbooster ability in super metroid
meaning even at full speed with said starpowerup active mario can still get rekt if he hits lava or certain enemies
also for added spice when running at full speed and the starpower activates mario does that somersault jump thing he does in smb3 when he has the starpowerup to mimic the spacejump samus has and even the screw attack since if he hits enemies in mid air with it theyll get rekt

no clue what the powerup could be called tho
im leaning towards the suit being named the superstar suit or the shooting starsuit
and it has to be a suit and not a mushroom or anything cause it just fits lol
