Gladiacloud's small and last collaboration

[gladiacloud]

Hello to all.

I understand that it is too late for suggestions, but I assure you that this will be my
small (and first and last) collaboration to make better your game. Please accept, are only two levels to Minus World.

I do not want to become a member of MKF Team, really. In my humble opinion, Arkanoid and Hocus Pocus are two games that deserve to be taken into consideration.

Do not look at me as if I were obsessed, please. I like your game.

So I ask you: can I show my progress in this topic?

Thank you very much for attention.


P.S. for Bloodgrey: I hope to see your Rayman level, in future.

You know, I'm always on your side mate, since you seem to have talent according creating stages with Game Maker. Feel free to show your progress since the dev members shouldn't have ANYTHING against stages for Minus World. Though I honestly do not like that world that much it could get some attention. So yeah, feel free to show your progress. I'm sure, me and the other members at this forum will like your work.

PS: Don't underestimate you or talk as if you would be a "minor", not respectable person. In fact you have once proven your ability at making nice stages (well thought out level design, nice usage of tilesats from various games) whereas others might not be that talented at designing stages (me included^^). So yeah, although it might sound egoistic, but be a bit more proud of yourself. You deserved it.

PPS: On a second note (though it's kind of off-topic, I didn't know about a planed Rayman stage. Which Rayman game would be taken under consideration for MKF (I hope the good old 2D one)? )

Greetings,
Slit_Zurifa

ARKANOID LEVEL'S MASSIVE UPDATE!

[gladiacloud]

New Land of Lattice (Hocus Pocus) shots.



I've some problems with paralax actually.

[Shodian]

Hey these look really good Cloud.

I hope to see more from you soon.

[Slit_Zurifa]

Again gladiacloud nice updates. I rly love your pics. I also hope to see more of this stage soon. You seem to have lots of talent. Ever thought of making your own Mario fan game?

[Spriterkid1997]

AWESOME!
Why not have laser balls to eliminate the platforms so it can be harder?

[Slit_Zurifa]

BTW, on the first screen the background does not look quite right placed as there is this awsome blue background beyond the mushrooms... I would advice you to put it a bit deeper so that you don't see that.

I've got a question: Will the whole Hocus Pokus stage include those tiles (background etc.) or will it change during Mario progressing through the stage? Could you pls give us a short description of the planed stage? Would be kind.

Greetings.

Land of Lattice: new layout in progress!

First two rooms are completed!



Thanks to Brian for level sketch!

[RisingManes]

The level is looking gorgeous, GladiaCloud. Keep at it---I want to see the whole thing, since this is one game I would have forgotten forever if you hadn't brought it up.

[gladiacloud]

Third area completed!

I'll post some shots very soon.

[gladiacloud]

Sorry for double post.

[Spriterkid1997]

*dies of too much awesomeness*

[WhiteRoseBrian]

Like I said in another post, this level could work very well for the new World 6. Its wizardly theme works, doesn't it?

By the way, who here can rip the crocodiles from Hocus Pocus? I placed those in the sketch for the layout.

[Reverend Ray]

Hmm, this is ending up like my level... definitely awesome, and definitely needing the game's enemies. Only difference being the fact that I have the sprites but I can't code them... yet.
I have the game still in its CD case so I'll try to get it running. I'll see what I can do about the sprites.

EDIT: Sadly enough, for some reason the CD can't be read. It just keeps trying to read for a long time until it eventually stops reading. The CD seems fine to me, there aren't even any scratches on it. I'm guessing it's not compatible anymore.

New screenies! Fourth area is finished!



Thank you for your sprites, D-Turbokiller!

But have you the complete version of Hocus Pocus game? Or it's a shareware?
The backgrounds of this game are very beautiful!

[Reverend Ray]

It's the full version of course, still in it's CD case
And hey, I'm still ripping a lot of stuff; I see you don't have the HP lava there yet as well. I'm currently ripping all the level 1 stuff.

[Reverend Ray]

All right, double post I know, but I've updated the post with tons of sprites, check it out just above the screenies!

Oh, and If you need the music or some other sprites, just ask me, otherwise I'm done with this *phew*

[gladiacloud]

D-Turbo, I wish the backgrounds of the second episode of Hocus Pocus... there is a desertic background and a sky background that I want show at Shodian...

News: I've started the last area of Land of Lattice.

[gladiacloud]

Land of Lattice level is finished!

[Reverend Ray]

Damn, I seem to have forgotten about the rips you asked. Don't worry, I'm ripping the backgrounds. They're being pretty hard to rip though... I can't seem to rip the full sky background, but almost of it. Haven't tried the desert background yet.

All right, so the level's finished, hooray! Have you added all the new sprites yet? Also if you need someone to record it, just ask me

[Reverend Ray]

Well, sure took my time, but damn these were hard to rip.
Here are the backgrounds you requested.



Man this was tough.
