Hello everyone! :D I've just started my first (and probably last) episode in SMBX. I'll be using
SMBX 1.4.3 'cuz it's the best editor...
yet. It's gonna have a lot of worlds (22 approximately), so it'll take a lot of time (
obviously). If you support it, why not giving me some ideas for levels? The graphics I'll be using are:
- -FanofSMBX's gfx pack
-h2643's gfx pack
-Murphmario's gfx pack
-Pixelpest's nest
-Graphics from TGE2 (I enjoyed and recommend it)
And, obviously,
-The SMBX Community gfx pack
Share this everywhere! (I wanna see everyone else's opinions)

My opinion is that you have no idea what you're getting into. 22 worlds and you already struggle to have ideas for levels? Plan your stuff out and gather ideas before you settle on a size. Find out how much you CAN do before saying what you WILL do. As soon as you run out of ideas for levels and for sections of levels, progress WILL slow down and grind to a halt. Speaking from experience here.

I'm not struggling for ideas. I'm just saying that if you have an original idea, I'll consider putting it there. Also, most of these worlds are extra worlds with approx. 3 levels. It'll have 11 actual worlds.
P.S.: Thanks for the feedback!

22 worlds? Sounds just wrong. Even if they are really small. You'd have to come up with many various themes for them, so each one is unique. Which can be extremely difficult. Grass, Snow, Desert, Water, Cave, Forest, Beach, Volcano, Star Road - that's everything I can come up on my own. That's only 9 and those are usual world themes in Mario games. I can't imagine what you would have to do to have 22 worlds (even if half of them are extra ones).
About editor, dont say 1.4.3 is the best. No editor is the best. Though I recommend you to move to 2.0. Your episode will get much better if you use it. I know you may not like it at first, but after few sessions you'll fall in love with it.
And now, the last, most important thing. Where are screenshots? You should upload at least one for every world you plan in order to not have this thread locked. But it looks like work is barely started.
Currently I have no strong opinion on this project. I'm sceptic. Upload screenshots and we'll talk. I'll be happy if it turns to look great.
