[GM8 Fangame] Mysterious Islandz

[StrikeForcer]

Joey told me to post my fangame creation in this forum. Now then, let's begin.

What is this game?: Mysterious Islandz is a fangame made in Game Maker 8.0. There are 9 Worlds in total, but they are under construction.

World Themes: (Worlds 6-7 subject to change)
World 1: Grassy Forestial Island (Grass/Forest)
World 2: The Pipeline Dome Island(Grass/Pipeline)
World 3: Desert Ruins Island(Desert laden with temples, quicksand-sunken monuments, ruined structures)
World 4: Icic Island (Cold World)
World 5: Elevated Heights Island(Variety of High Altitudes, most of it has Mushroom Platforms, SMB1 "Tree tiles")
World 6: Obscuria (or Super Mario Bros. Special Island, name pending)(Uses Super Mario Bros Special GFX from NEC)
World 7: Strange Island (based off Strange Mario Bros. series by acmlm, the creator) (Weird, 8-bit)
World 8: Ambient Pennisula Island (Jungle/Beach/Water)
World 9: Barren Core Island (Wasteland/Volcanic/Military)

Difficulty: Hard (not recommended for beginners man. Its recommened to those who played ROM-hacks of SMB and SMW. Official game-wise, those who beat SMB2 and Super Luigi U.)

Story: To be constructed

Looks interesting so far, I am definitely going to stay tuned for a demo.

A demo existed since last week. So its quite recent.

Oh crap, didn't see that. Was basing that off the work in progress thing and it said a 3 world demo, I'll give it a go when I get home
