SMC - Quest to Valtteri (Hiatus!)

[Emral]

Wait, wait, this kinda got me confused now... Natsu, please explain the stuff with the castles and cities again for me. After all, it seems I have to choose one, too.

Anyone can design the castles. Natsu does the bosses.
Natsu makes the cities. (Although I'd still like to design mine with Natsu adding all the story elements later...)

[zlaker]

Why shouldn't the level designers make the bosses? That's unfair IMO

[Emral]

Because, like he said, the bosses will be the sidekicks, but with a different strategy used in every fight. I'm sure Natsu has it all planned somewhere already.

I do agree though, that I'm not the biggest fan of that concept, although I see its strengths and purposes.

[zlaker]

Well after thinking about it sounds a bit reasonable, but I'm not quite happy about only SMB3 palettes

The cities belong to the Four Kings, and the castles belong to the sidekicks... right? If so, which ones can I still choose from? There also seem to be several castles/towns claimed by multiple people...
In addition, wouldn't it make more sense to let the sidekicks themselves design their castles like they want them to be?

No that'd be more unfair and stupid, because the levels might get under 7. Also everyone has right to design which level they feel for

@Ice: Like I said, various styles are allowed as long as they are SMB3 recolored. The SMB3 palette will be the only one being used on this episode.
@SuperWingedYoshi: It'll depend on your name/sprite. For example, let's say ElTipsta has a statue as sprite, he would belong for W7, Support Temple. And so on. And no, since it'd be unfair for people that would like to design a castle.

About the bosses, after all they'll be designed by me, along with the boss rooms. For those who think it is unfair, yeah, it is true that the boss room is located in the fortress/castle you're designing, but it's a separated level. Yeah, bosses will be battled on different .lvl files. The rest is up to you guys to design.

Soooo, let me get this straight:

W1 - Art Board Plains - ???
W3 - Introduction Coast - Blueoak and Emral
W5 - SuperMarioBrosX.org - Bomber57
W7 - Support Temple - ???

I'm afraid only one is allowed in one world, so if you'd like to be on one world that another King wants to be in you'll have to discuss and reach and agreement.

[zlaker]

As a sidekick can I choose which world I can appear in? If so I want World 3.

You want to appear on a beach world? I wouldn't mind but isn't it the complete opposite of what your username means?

[zlaker]

Yeah, but everyone wants Elsa in the ice world which I agree. Besides water world rocks!!

[SuperWingedYoshi]

@SuperWingedYoshi: It'll depend on your name/sprite. For example, let's say ElTipsta has a statue as sprite, he would belong for W7, Support Temple. And so on.

Hm, then what world could I belong to? I'd see myself in the Sky, but Sky is W8 and W8 is Valtteri's home. Also, I don't really wanna be the boss of W1, since World 1 bosses are always so lame. My sprite would probably look similarly to my current avatar: a cyan Yoshi with wings and a cyan blur around him.

And no, since it'd be unfair for people that would like to design a castle.

But the sidekicks should still be able to tell the castle designer what they want their castle to look like... You can't create a jungle castle for Elsa, for example.

Also, I'm still a bit confused about the worlds. If I understand it correctly, there'll be one Sidekick per world, and there'll be one King each in W1, W3, W5 and W7?

[Megar]

dude
elsa HAS to be in world 7
also i guess i'll be there as well if i understand this right

[MrPunchia]

Beach world? I wouldn't mind but isn't it the complete opposite of what your username means?

Actually, volcano would be a darn good candidate.

Volcano is the "Showdown" world, thus Valtteri's place, thus I doubt Ice would be there.

[Murphmario]

Could you please make me use a Terra Blade? The sprites are on Spriters Resource. Also, after my defeat in the castle, could you please link a pipe to another version of my castle so that it can have a "Self-Destruct Sequence"?

[SuperWingedYoshi]

Oh well i lose, i only have bad luck today. Succes people....

Hey, don't let that get you down. I would have preferred to be one of the Kings, but now I ended up being one of the Sidekicks. You can still be a town member, and you can submit levels.

[Fuyu]

@SuperWingedYoshi: Who told you that W1 bosses are lame? Not necessarily. Besides, I'm planning to reunite all sidekicks in the final castle as minibosses like Capcom do on megaman series. It'd be different from the actual teleporter they use.

@Murphmario: There won't be any extra preferences for the sidekicks.

Also, I changed the the order, and the Support Temple world for a Fan Fiction Peak, a perfect place for Elsa.

W1 - Art Board Plains (The Place where creativity blooms) - Grassland/Lake
W2 - Sandbox Desert (The Place where rigged storms reign) - Desert/Canyon
W3 - Introduction Coast (The place where deparetures and meetings happen) - Beach/Harbour
W4 - Video Game Amazon (The place where adventures begin ...) - Forest/Swamp/Poison
W5 - SuperMarioBrosX.org (The urbanized metropolis) - Factory/City/Cybernetic
W6 - Fan Fiction Peak (The place where the mystical chants freeze) - Ruin/Mountain/Sno
W7 - General Badlands (The place where discussions happen ...) - Deadland/Badland
W8 - Volcanic Banlist (The place of the Final Showdown ...) - Volcano/Mountain/Sky
WS - Starry Chatroom (The place where people smile ...) - Star/Night/AllThemes

OK, could we at least have a time bomb escape?

[SuperWingedYoshi]

@SuperWingedYoshi: Who told you that W1 bosses are lame?

My experience with video games told me that. W1 bosses are always the easiest bosses. Being the boss of W1 is an ungrateful job.

Besides, I'm planning to reunite all sidekicks in the final castle as minibosses like Capcom do on megaman series.

So the player fights all seven sidekicks again before fighting Valtteri? If yes, one by one or all at once?

An idea, how about making the Introduction Coast W1? After all, the Introduction sub-forum is the sub-forum where many members begin their journey.

[Megar]

I still think Elsa should be the final sidekick...
