Super Mario Bros. X Forums

One thing that's always bothered me about levels (both in SMBX and official Mario games) is how empty they feel, other than the enemies and sometimes Toads, it just feels like an obstacle course, so I made these: Little "critters" that you can set to friendly and have them wander around the level.
In case you don't want to download the whole pack, or you only want one style, here's three download links.

IDK IMO they look like smaller versions of enemies.

Now i can make a mini-themed level with this! The GFX looks cute... (no koopas?) Good Job.

That's literally what they are.

And I love it. Having some more "normal" (can that even be applied to Mario lol) critters like butterflies and maybe frogs would be neat.

Here's both! I cheated a little and just recolored Yoshi's Island sprites, but they fit in well so it's fine.
They're included in the main pack, but in case you don't want to download it twice, here they are on their own

Now these make more sense!

Actually, Cheep Cheeps ones make sense, because when you are underwater you expect a group of fishes swimming, that most of times are a family.

Also Butterflies and Frogs ones are a very cool idea! It would be cool also rats for castles/ghost houses/cities and flies for swamps.

Goodie Jobie!

Here's another update, now there are 9 SMW critters!
Because I hate downloading full packs over and over when there are updates, I split the download into three links - SMB3, SMW, and "All-In-One".

Man, this looks awesome! You should add fireflies to light up dark levels.

These are so cute :3
I should try to use these for a giant themed level I'm working on
How about things like mini Toads (The mushroom person) or mini Hammer bros

These graphics are interesting, I would like to see how they work in the game itself

You did a good job with this, but do not you think that might be more ?, it is that I think that need more enemies (like koopas or rexes)

I don't know, it's your decision if you going to add more or not, but anyway is excellent as is

Tiny npcs on giant themed level?

Well yeah, as JamminJelly said, it will make the level look less empty..

But on giant-themed level?

Maybe they can make giant little npcs?
Or it could be one of those levels where there are small and big things.

D'awww these are so cute :3
Some more fish-y critters would be great though

It's a level where you're a giant running through a city
