Project "DARK"

So, It's been some time since "Project Subcon" fell through, and I recently decided to get back in to SMBX.
I also decided that this time, I would do two things differently:
  • Use SMBX 2.0 rather than 38A, so I can get accustomed to the new editor.
  • Make it something smaller and more manageable, rather than an ambitious full game.
So, here we are.
Now then, time for the actual reason you're here.

Project "DARK"

What is it?
Well, in short. It's me ripping off taking inspiration from the SMW hack "Coronation Day" and attempting to make a mini horror-esque game.
So far, the plans only span the size of what would be a single world in a regular Mario Game, with about 10 levels planned total, only 7 of which would be actual levels, with the other 3 being dedicated to areas like Mario's house, or the Mushroom Palace.
What's the status of the project?

Current Progress:

Latest Update:

  • 8/23/2021: Mario's House Complete.
  • 8/24/2021: Beach-1 Beginning development.
    --Note: Concept and initial design of "Chaser" beginning background development.
  • 8/25/2021: Beach-1 complete, now moving on to Beach-2.

Screenshots
Currently, the project is still very early, so there's only two decent screenshots I could give.

More screenies will be added once the game gets further along :)
Can you expect a demo?
To put it simply, no. I feel like one of my problems with Project Subcon, aside from ambition outweighing ability, was that I promised too much too quickly. I have no plans to release anything playable of this before it's complete.
Credits:
This episode does use some custom graphics and LunaLUA content, so I'd like to give them proper credit here:
  • Enjl - Told me how to use music.ini in the help forums.
  • 9thCore - Custom textbox engine I'm using in the episode.
  • SMW Central - Custom SPCs used within the episode. Specific Authors will be listed later.
  • Shady Flux - Assets from their GFX Pack are used in the episode.
  • Kojimkj - Assets from their BG Pack are used in the episode.
  • Hatsune Blake - Assets from their GFX Pack are used in the episode.
There's a chance I might forget someone every now and then, but I'll do my best to get them all!
