I'd like to have a Cheep-Cheep pet or a Boo pet, probably a Boo pet

About the ones I want to be added, there's a whole list about them:
- Piranha Creeper - You can set how long the plant is and its path!
- Stalking Piranha Plant - Walking Piranha Plant that not only because of the lack of spiky balls, it behaves differently from Ptooie.
- Longator/Longadile - Walks slowly and stretches. Longadile would probably take a extra hit to defeat and be a little faster.
- Unagi - The ones who goes forward ignoring Mario, the ones who hide in the background to surprise-attack Mario with a bite and come back to the little hole they "hide" and the big one that destroys everything on his path until the screen/water onscreen stops.
- Rammerhead - Both big and small, pink and blue.
- Bulber - Behaves like normal Cheep-Cheeps mostly, but it has a light bulb on its head. Tries to follow the group.
- Balloon Boo - If you look, they'll inflate. If you look away, he'll follow you a bit faster than a normal Boo, but it will lose air overtime.
- Lakitunder - Boss Lakitu that drops thundershocks, throws Spinies and takes three stomps to defeat.
- Boss Sphere - Appears after defeating a boss. Clears the level (only Birdo has that setting with a Crystal Ball).
- Propeller Mushroom - SHOULD BE IN SMBX2 IN ANY WAY. Was on SMBX1, so it should be in the sequel.
- Penguin Suit - Read previous.
- Blue Shell - Also read previous.
- Mini Mushroom - Last time I say read previous.
- Super Bell - Cat Mario is a really niché powered up Mario.
- Mario NPC - A Mario that you can talk too. There's Luigi, Peach, Toad, so why not him?

It wasn't. SMBX38A v.1.4 has NOTHING to do with SMBX 1.3 or with SMBX2. And please don't hijack this thread for not-so-subtle content requests.

Oop. My bad. Sorry, Enjl! Sorry, whole community! :oops:

Holy shit, I got a good laugh out of this, but I think I'd rather have a pet instead of be one, and I sure as hell wouldn't wanna be Larry Koopa's pet lol.

favorite item: Tanooki suit
favorite enemy: Boomerang Bro
favorite boss: any Koopaling

I'm taking the Toothy NPC as a pet. Rainbow pipe and a friendly Piranha that just slashes through Pwnhammer in a millisecond.

And also, if I want a new NPC being added in the future, I personally want to see Piranha Creeper being added for the following reasons:
- Compatibility with Redirectors - the player can use redirectors to choose where the Piranha Creeper will go
- Behavior - Customizable variants that can change their behavior, using their variants (blue and pink) from SMM2. Maybe add a new one that will immediately sprout once the player goes under it, like a Thwomp.
- Platforming - Can fit a variety of purposes in jungle and forest levels, especially when you need to jump on them for platforming. Such behavior should be distinguished, though, given that Piranha Plants are already harmful for a player's jump as they are in SMBX2.

EDIT: Favorite NPCs.
- Item - Hammer Suit due to its high versatility between characters. (Peach Bombs, Toad Boomerangs, Link Swordbeams)
- Enemy - Chargin' Chucks of any type. Makes them great for use with Clear Pipes and SMW-styled levels.
- Boss - SMB3 Bowser lol
- Other - Baby Yoshi

Favorite item: The Ice Flower because it's the coolest out of the current base game picks.

Favorite Enemy: Bunbun, my beloved. I never thought I would love this guy, but the container update changed me for good. I also want a BunBun as a pet. :>

Favorite Boss: Mouser or Birdo. I'm not sure which one I like more, to be honest. Birdo's setups and fun-to-use ai are delightful when mastered. Unlike some vanilla bosses that become tiring, I can never get tired of fighting Mouser. I don't know what happened to his AI description...

Other NPC: SMW Red Springboards for creativity and accessibility. The number of setups that opened up since their introduction is simple, yet entertaining.

NPCs I'd like to see added:
-Super Bell: As a massive SM3DW fan, the Super bell is one of my all-time favorite power-ups. All of the attacks are fun to mess with. The Lucky Bell is an upgraded version of said power-up, but I'm worried it'd be a little overpowered.

-Gugi: There are oodles of Wario Land 2-3 enemies that I would love to see added. Many of them I see potential in SMBX. The Gugi is a small orange blob from Wario Land 2 that temporarily rages when waken up. In WL2, this is caused by Wario ground-pounding, bumping into them, defeating them, or another enemy. Imagining how versatile they can be in SMBX gets me excited. Reacting to the player holding onto an item, any movement (besides walking lol), light or darkness, etc. I can go on, but I don't want to keep flooding this post.

-Boss Sumo Bro: This is probably the easiest out of many possibilities. One of the most surprising twists NSMBU, and favorite bosses from the main platformers. There were other choices I considered, but they might be significantly harder to make.

-Light block: A small carryable light block like in NSMBW. This can save an extra layer for vanilla levels. However, this perhaps could be obsolete with an "NPC light" toggle if it was added... Mostly a quality of life change for vanilla levels.

-And while not an NPC, I would like to see an NPC Pass-Through Hurt Block be added.
