Title: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: CashCrazed on June 22, 2002, 05:08:57 PM
I've seen a few people make Mario game clones, but not that many. Many more have done ROM hacks of Mario games(I've done a couple, but it's just too limiting). Peblo did a game, but he's the only one I've heard of on this forum doing a game. Anyone here making a Mario game clone or ROM hack?

I'm back to work on mine after more than a month. Today I made it so small Mario could do a killer backflip with Up and B, to dodge enemies and in the future, player projectiles such as fireballs. Now he's not so defenseless! I would upload my newer version to an FTP, but my newly implemented enemy, the crab, is still invincible. I may let Super Mario do a slide later on.

I once made a pretty good (though rather buggy) Mario game using Click and Create, but it was never actually finished.  Good old Super Mario Universe...
And currently I've got a couple games in development, though they don't actually include Mario (they're both Yoshi-based.)  One is a platform-puzzle game based off an old 8-bit game, and the other one's a platform game (though right now it's not really more than a really excellent engine.)

What language is it in? Mine is in BASIC. I was gonna do a wall kick, but then one second later I realize there's no walls in Mario Bros. My job would be a lot easier without multiplayer(the player arrays get confusing), but that's my main focus.

I'm actually using a pseudo-programming application that retains all of the logical concepts of programming without a lot of code or syntax.  It's a program called Multimedia Fusion made by Clickteam.  Perhaps you've heard of The Games Factory?  This is the same company and same basic program, only much more advanced.

I've used Klik n' Play and The Games Factory but found it way too limiting. But with BASIC, you have to do the distance and gravity computations, friction slowdown, sprite positioning after every game frame, obstacle blocking, and animation frames all on your own with variables and arrays. Things got even more confusing when I made the players able to pick things and each other up. But my program, Dark Basic, made things easier with collision and sprite drawing.

Oh, did I tell anyone I turned 14 about a week ago?

Anyone have a good Yoshi's Island or RPG Battle Engine? Wait, no, I don't need the Battle Engine.  I'm currently working on a Yoshi Engine where Bumptys bump you, Goombas shrink and still walk around when stomped on, Fly Guys drop their coin when attacked, making stuff pop out of "?" clouds, making Yoshi slip on ice, good Artificial Intellegence, and Chain-chomps that smash through the floor and leave a hole.

I still need good Yoshi sounds!

It's a program called Dark Basic. It was made mainly to create 3D games easily, but it also makes programming 2D games easier by drawing sprites and detecting collision. It uses DirectX 8.1, and the 3D triangle rotation demo I made on my graphing calculator made me realize how devastatingly hard 3D programming is without DirectX. You can find it at the Dark Basic website

Ah, but that's the great thing about the Clickteam products:  simple enough so that someone can make a playable game within an hour without any other experience, yet with enough depth and complexity beneath to allow an experienced and creative user to forge worlds and create a work of art of comercial quality.  The programs are by no means limited.

I once played a Mario game on my schools computer. The first level was like the first level in SMB2, the second level was some kind of sewer with lots of lava, the third level was some kind of cloud level, and the 4th level was Bowser's Castle(I think). The controls were the same as SMB, but it looked like it had Super Nintendo graphics. There were koopas, spikys, and some kind of strange pirhana plants.
Does anybody know which game i am talking about?

I still need Mario "hoots" (hint hint), and a good animation of Mario throwing a punch.(If anybody could create one to look like the original Mario Bros pictures, cause thats what I am using. Im to lazy to do it myself. I just need pictures actually. I can put the animation together.) I was planning an original sound track but I'm just to lazy to make one up so I'm using recorded sounds from other Mario Games. Ive got some of the Music from Mario Bros on the GBA

Ah, the Mario computer game thread.
As long as it's been unearthed, I guess I'll share what I've done, as progress doesn't seem to be moving at all anyway.

http://www11.brinkster.com/yoshisan/downloads/eggs.zip
This half-megabyte file is a puzzle/action game staring Yoshi that I still haven't gotten around to finishing.  It's essentially "Penguin Land," if anybody's ever heard of that game, and it's missing graphics / levels / sounds / musics / backgrounds / a story, but it's playable, and it'll be too long before I feel motivated to work on it again.
You'll also need the file at
http://www11.brinkster.com/yoshisan/downloads/cncs232.dll
in the same directory (or the windows/system directory) for it to run.  I think that's it.

I'm currently learning my JavaScript and Perl so that I could make an internet Mario game.  If any of you ever visited Reality's End (http://www.realitysend.com), and played in the R.E. League (Maelstrom Town), you would basically understand what I'm trying to do.  However, I'm still learning.  Here's basically the storyline (that's as far as I got): Bowser and Smithy team up and start messing up our wishes again.  Mallow, Geno, Peach, Goombario, Kooper, Bombette, Parakarry, Watt, Sushie, Flamer (Lava Bubble), and Little T. (Toad) team up with you to defeat the two enemies.  But I'm getting off topic, plus I need to learn JavaScript and Perl.

Well, another DB user. I've only found 1 other DB user asking about my game(he flooded my box with around 10 emails), even though I don't know how they could have found out about my game without looking on these boards.

Anyway, 2D programming is relatively simple if you have only 1 player at once(it's a bit more complicated for me, as Mario Bros. is the only simultanious multiplayer Mario game other than the SMBDX Vs. mode). Sprite commands are pretty simple, but if you want the game to run at any speed other than crappy, I suggest using the "sync" commands. I used to have a speed problem where it was too slow. Then I added the sync command. The speed problem is now the opposite!
Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: Luigison on August 27, 2002, 04:07:20 PM
I am that other DB user.  Sorry about the flood of emails.  I was just so excited to find a DB programmer and I liked your game.

I have had the same problem with sync, but use snyc sleep to slow it down.  I only fear this is slowing down and making other game action look choppy.  If there was a delay action command it would make everything easier.
Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: CashCrazed on August 27, 2002, 05:20:55 PM
Use the "wait" command to stop the program for a number of milliseconds.
Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: Luigison on August 27, 2002, 07:59:57 PM
Yes, but the "wait" command stops the entire program.  To slow a single action I might be able to make a variable called something like "delaytime" equal to a certain number of milliseconds that I want the action slowed.  Then I could store the timer() value in a variable called something like "oldtime".  Now I could check to see IF oldtime + delaytime < timer() THEN [code block].  Where the code block may contain something like pasting a blank sprite rather than the actual sprite.
Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: CashCrazed on August 27, 2002, 09:01:43 PM
Try this.

function Delay(ms)
.....t1=timer()
.....while timer() < t1 + ms
.....endwhile
endfunction

Just put the function in anywhere you want to delay the game for "ms" milliseconds.

I used BASIC, PASCAL, etc. years ago, but DB seems better suited for game although it was really made for 3D games.  I have heard C++ and VisualBASIC are a good lanquages too, but then I would have to learn all the Active X controls as well.  They are already in DB. DarkBASIC also has a free trial.  I also looked at several of the 'what you see is what you get' programs like The Game Factory, but they where limited and didn't allow direct altering of the code.  Multimedia Fusion from clickteam.com is supposed to be good and have a free trial, but I have never used it.  If you like programming I suggest DarkBASIC, but if not The Game Factory may be best.

I also will program games on my little TI-83(it's an outdated graphing calculator). All I can really do are text-and-pixel-graphic games like spaceship wars because of how primitive it is. It is also very slow(it took about 2 seconds to load every frame for my 3D traingle rotation demo(only LINE commands and the trig ratios, now THAT'S how hard even the most primitive 3D programming is without DirectX).

With all those "easy game maker" utilities, the term "making games" is drifting farther and farther apart from real coding, and, while making game creation easier and easier so that even Special Ed students could make games, it also keeps giving the user less and less options. I mean, what if you were using one of those and wanted  to make a special screen fade out effect where the pixels turn black in horizontal lines. What would you do about that in one of those? Make 307,200 black pixel-sized objects? In BASIC, you could simply do this:

gosub fadescreen

fadescreen:
   for fade1 = 1 to 480
      for fade2 = 1 to 640
         dot fade2,fade1
      next fade2
   next fade1
return

Post by: Chupperson Weird on September 06, 2002, 10:50:55 PM
The Games Factory has that and a bunch of other loadable fade out effects, it has plenty of options for a lot of stuff (but for a few things, none at all) and it's not too easy to use. It's really a pretty good tool... I mean, I program too, but I haven't done any in a while... hm, maybe I should start up again...

Jump on him when he has wings and hammer him when he puts on the spiked cap. That should work.

EDIT: Yes, it works. I tried it and won:

Mario HP: 9/10
Goomba HP: -1/10

Mario, Mario, Mario! What happened to Mr. Andretti?

If you've played Paper Mario, it's like that; jumped on a Goomba with a spiked hat hurts you, and hammers are ineffective against flying Goombas.

SubConSurfer,

There are lots of free and free trial game making programs on the net.

I prefer to program in DarkBASIC which is a version of BASIC that has commands for sprites, 3D object, etc. for game making.  You can get a 30 day trial at http://darkbasic.com/download.php but I recommend DarkBasicPro because it has a better interface.

"The Game Factory" is also popular and doesn't require programming to make simple games although the interface is a little hard to learn.  I think it is now free without a time limit.  MultiMediaFusion (MMF) is also available from  http://clickteam.com for a 30 day trial.  It is a sort of upgrade of the discontinued GameFactory.

"Game Maker" is a similiar program that is available free on the web at http://www.cs.uu.nl/~markov/gmaker/

You might also want to check out the free "Scrolling Game Development Kit" (GameDev for short) at http://gamedev.sourceforge.net/

If you don't want to program or design your own games, you might want to hack a rom.  My favorite program for beginners is "Lunar Magic"  It allows you to move, copy, and change the size of objects in "Super Mario World" and then play it in a emulator.  You can get it at http://uct2.net/~fusoya/lm/ but you will need to download the rom from somewhere else if you don't have it already.

If you are really serious about making a game I suggest you learn C++.

Thank you for sharing that with us, Frostbite.

I also use Tile Layer, but the Kirby's Adventure ROM is so **** huge it's impossible to find the Kirby graphics, but more important, what ability goes to what set, they all look almost exactly alike, the only way I can tell which set is which is by using NESticle and viewing the results in real time. Can you belive that in each set there is not only normal graphics, but entirely DIFFERENT subsets for 30 and 45 degree SLOPES!!! YAAAAAAAAGH!!!

It's gonna be kinda hard to do a Mega Man hack of SMB, since Mega Man is a six-color sprite with separate face graphics.

And yes, frostbite, I knew that, and I promptly deleted the program from my computer.

I've been using the graphics from SMB, but there's a real problem. There is about 64K of Kirby sprite graphic, while little Mario takes up no more than 2K in SMB! I've had to design many custom graphics for Mario and still need more forms to put in place of Kirby's.
Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: Chupperson Weird on October 11, 2002, 07:23:57 PM
Hmm... Well, I can see that, as Kirby has about a million more frames than the SMB Mario. Heh... I would have at least used the GFX from SMB3.

Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: CashCrazed on October 11, 2002, 10:03:29 PM
Actually, the SMB3 little Mario has only a few more frames than the SMB one(little Mario is the only one that will fit Kirby's size). However, I did use the front and back of the SMB3 Mario for ladder climbing, but other than that I'm having to draw everything else Kirby does using the basic SMB Mario for a base(it's a lot of work, especially when it comes to some of the forms only a formable blob like Kirby can take). This will most likely only be a graphic hack, since that in itself is so much work.

Here's what my game kind of looks like. This is what I'd hope the game to be in the future. It looks sorta like this right now, but with hardly any of the extra stuff you see(hey, I have to get the basics first!), just the basic Mario Bros. game(without much enemy support yet either!)

Hiya, this is a pretty interesting thread you have going here!

I'm new to this forum, but I've been playing around with game development software my whole life. You can check out a lot of work I've done at http://tatsusoft.bubblebobble.com

There I have a lot of PC games with Mario references, and on the "graveyard" site there are some unfinished games that didn't come out too well, but someone may get a kick out of em.

But what I've really come to post about is a game I've been working on for years, making all graphics, sound, music and the engine myself. I posted about it in the "Need Mario voice" thread, but I might as well link you to it here as well.

It's not quite finished yet, and it's not technically available for download on my page, but you can get it at http://tatsusoft.bubblebobble.com/smashed

The game follows the story of Martinio and Loogie, two drunken plumbers without a clue. As of now Story Mode is finished and most challenge levels work, but I'm currently working on VS modes and extra features.

It's a pretty hefty download but I would like it some of you here could play it and tell me what you think!

I do happen to have an early concept screenshot uploaded, so if you want a quick preview of the style of this game, just go here: http://tatsusoft.bubblebobble.com/smashed.jpg

Have-a fun!

Had to revive this thread AGAIN, because now I need some decent backgrounds for the game. I don't know where to start looking though. But right now my AI is as good as it's ever going to get without full rebuilding.

I started that project way back before I even knew about SMA. Then right after I finished the basic engine, I found some screenshots of SMA Mario Bros. My jaw hit the floor. They did most everything I was planning to do with my game(Picking up people was supposed to be MY new idea)! It had it all, a decent four-player battle mode(actually I would've kept my game at 2 players if they didn't give me the idea of having 4), great backgrounds and music, decent graphics and gameplay, EVERYTHING! It made my game look like crap(still does today)!

I'll still never be able to beat out the SMA remake. Not even with new moves and suits, COM opponents, an adventure mode, and Internet play! But at least here you can play with 4 people on one PC instead of four linked GBAs(although you're very likely to all get crunched around the keyboard and have it turn into a shoving contest)!

I would do that, but the screenshots of SMA always have bricks in the way, and I don't have a GBA emu or know how to rip the sprites from a GBA rom anyway...................

There's a LOT of strange bugs I just discovered. Most of these were undiscovered until now simply because no HUMAN could pull them off, but my COM Marios were doing such strange and lightning fast things to the control(they aren't really cheating, they still use the same commands as does the keyboard input from a human) that odd things like Marios walking upside down and Marios dieing but not being removed from the screen happen.

Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: Luigison on June 17, 2003, 10:18:38 PM
Those would be cool, but I had trouble finding them so I am going with classic SMB.

HTML turned of so that this post will take up less space on the forums.

I simply posted these to show that I am using parts of them to build my background in the game I am making.

Why exactly did you rip screenshots of all the SMB1 levels from the YY-Mario editor? SMB1 has no real backdrop images except for the 8-3 castle wall. Oh well, I'll just rip the ones from the SMAS battle minigame for now................

Then Deezer must've been the one to rip them, oh well.

My new release will be a big upgrade, fixing numerous bugs, adding backgrounds and new floor patterns, a 1P adventure mode(don't know how big it will be for now), unlockable COM opponents(although they are pretty crappy, I'll give you that), and also more music and maybe even water levels.

Here's a couple screenies of what my game looks like now. I took the second one while four COM Marios were battling.

Sorry, CW, too late, I already smashed the bug that did that. Now the pipes spit out Mushrooms and Poison Mushroom, and Fire Flowers and Hammer Suits randomly appear on the ground blocks. They change Marios to the appropriate power, but I still have to make the fireballs and hammers that they'll shoot.............maybe I should just design the coins while I'm at it.

Just wait 'till my next release, I'll have the new stuff by then. Now Fire Mario shoots fireballs, Hammer Mario throws hammers, and coins appear after enemies are killed, but nobody can detect any of that yet...........I've also made a Red Coin that randomly appears in battle instead of a coin that gives you TWO coins when you pick it up! And I've taken out the coin numbers in battle mode and replaced them with actual coin images for a more pleasing look.

Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?

Not hard to change the SMB graphics. Hard to hack them, as in doing ASM hacks to change the sprite parameters like I wanted to.



...I wouldn't say Mega Man was harder to change the graphics on, though... I've done a whole switch to Protoman in Mega Man III... That's changing colors, body, and face graphics.

Title: Re: Anyone here making a Mario computer game?
Post by: CashCrazed on July 15, 2003, 06:16:26 PM
Never mind the Perl stuff, I'm working on something else now. What's it called? Vs. That's it. Vs. It's a collection of VS. modes for many games of different series, all for 2 people. Games that didn't have a deathmatch mode do now! Games like Mario, Zelda, Megaman, and Metroid will all have 2 player VS. games. Crazy idea? Maybe, but it's a way to see if you or a friend is better at a certain 1 player game! Planned on are:

Mario:
Super Mario Bros. 1 - jump on the other player
Super Mario Bros. 2 - pick up the other player and throw him into the wall spikes
Super Mario Bros. 3 - jump on the other player or kick shells at him
Super Mario World - jump on the other player, spin jumps do double damage

Zelda:
Zelda 1 - stab away the other player's 3 hearts.
Zelda 2 - This one deserves a VS mode most. You know what to do!
Zelda 3 - stab, dash or throw away the other player's 3 hearts

Megaman:
Megaman 1-6(the NES ones) - shoot away the other player's life bar

Metroid:
Metroid 1 - shoot away the other player's energy meter
Metroid 3 - same thing

I probably won't have the patience to finish ALL of them, but what's there is there.............

Here's the sprites.(The main character is none other than ME! Except he'll have a cooler sounding name.)





(You can tell I'm not a very good spriter from this. )
