So,i am making an episode and have an idea that I wanted to know if anywone was interested in it,

THE IDEA-After the events of SMB3,bowser crashed on the island of seasons, it is here that the Oracle Of Seasons mantains the balance, but bowser knowing the power that the Oracle Of Seasons Possessed, Stole the Staff of seasons and kidnaped the Oracle herself, now Mario will have to travel through the mushroom kingdom to stop bowser and restore the seasons, but now each land will take place in a different season, Spring, winter, fall, summer, and ???.In this game not only are the Blocks, tiles, BGO's, And backgrounds styled by season but the enemies in this game will ware something that fit's with the season, for example in winter koopas will were snow coats, in summer they were swim suits, and in fall they look the same as the koopas in SMW after special world is completed(With Masks).

Do you guys think this is a clever idea and would you help me with it?

It sounds simple enough to work. One thing you might be interested in trying is allow players to revisit previous worlds/levels under season changes to unlock new pathways or bonus content. As long as this doesn't lend to blatant repetition it could allow for the episode to stand out a bit more.

But how would I get that to work?

Assuming the episode is linear and uses a world map, you could use SMB3-like transitions between worlds that contain SMW stars. This way when you grab a star in the level that transitions from World 1 to World 2, the star's death event could change the warp back to world 1 and have it actually warp to a different version of world 1 on the world map, which reflects world 2's season.

You truly are a Magician!No,Seriously though,thanks for the help.
And would anyone help me make this a reality?

And I forgot to mention that Mario will ware a seasonal out fit too.

I think the idea of utilizing the seasons is brilliant (hence Click Clock Wood is my favorite Banjo Kazooie level for it's seasons theme). I could certainly try to help out with level design or beta testing if you want the help.

I am curious of how the worlds would work out. Like would the lava world be dealing with winter where the volcanos are dealing with snow and ashes? How would a snow world be affected by the other seasons? I could honestly only see the snow world being much more dangerous by combining a stronger winter theme with it so the blizzards are more lethal. Would a world going through a season also deal with typical seasonal effects too and standard every season effects?
I just want a more specific idea on how the worlds would work since there are eight of them in smb3.

Do you remember the first lava level in Paper Mario Sticker Star?Do you remember how you could freeze the first area?The same thing happens in this episode were the lava freezes over and it starts snowing except the WHOLE MAP is affected!And do you remember the hurricane level in DKCR?Well I'm going to do something similar ware during the fall,in certain levels,you get chased by a hurricane,but the lava world won't have this for obvious reasons!
Also when the snow world changes to a different season it will be harder to navigate through the levels because the ice blocks will disappear and you will have to find a way to get around these areas,making it more of a puzzle and opening new areas to explore.

And level desighners are a MUST,simply because I don't want to run out of a ideas and I want to incorporate other peoples ideas!So start desighning and when I post the first demo we will discuss more, and plesase note that I am trying to keep all the graphics SMB3 styled and recolerd so just keep that in mind when making levels !

Unfortunately I never really played sticker star, but I'm a huge fan of the DKC series. Right from the start I recommend using the concept from 6-6 in DKC Tropical Freeze for an awesome winter level! XD hahaha

With that I'm pretty convinced that this episode has great potential. This has ideas I'd like to incorporate in my levels for my very own episode, so it'll help me progress through my episode while assisting yours as well. I'm usually using SMW graphics too, so this will be a good way for me to use more smb3 graphics as well. I will focus on smb3 graphics and see what I can do to help with ideas. I guess pm a list of the worlds and their specific seasons too to me, so I can get a better idea of your layout of the episode.

I don't mean only use stuff FROM SMB3,im saying it needs to be recloerd or restyled to LOOK like it is from SMB3

After the events of SMB3, Princess Peach banished Bowser and his kids, in their exile they stayed on Dinosaur Island (SMW Episode Mama Luigi reference), but the idea sounds good.

"Progect"?

Yeah I meant that as well. XD haha
I should've mentioned that too. Sorry!

Graphic Designers are Needed!
I need someone to Restyle the Super Mario Wacky World NPCs from the CGFX pack and the Fall Koopas from SMW To look like their from SMB3 SNES,
