Story

Wonder World was once a peaceful realm. However, a horde of monsters invaded and over time, it became known as Monster World. The leader of the monsters was and extra-terrestrial creature known as Bio Mecha.

Due to this, a young man named Shion vowed to defeat the monsters and their leader. Shion defeated Biomecha and restored peace.Shortly after the battle of Monster World, he vanished.

When a mysterious new evil threatens to destroy Monster World, chaos breaks loose causing time periods to collide with one another. Warriors written throughout history join forces in a quest to save the world from collapsing. Along with 6 brand new heroes to aid them, this may be their most difficult quest yet.

Port Process Complete!

Greetings to all! Today, I have a some information regarding this project's development and I hope that you are all looking forward to what's in store for it this year. I'd like to get back to work on it asap, so I'll be as brief as I possibly can. Let's get into it!

Dismantle/Port Complete

First things first. I'd like to announce that the port process has been completed! What do I mean by that? Well, to put it simply, Shantae and Asha's engine (Monster World IV-2 Engine) was combined with the one for Monster World Legends.

Many of the resources used the same code, but a majority of them did not, so not only did many things have to be destroyed or picked apart, but many things had to be reprogrammed so that the resources would agree with and understand each other's language (physics, battle system, etc).

The game itself has been reprogrammed many times as my knowledge of Game Maker grew. But, it seems this will indeed be the final time. We got the game running a couple of days ago, so I'm incredibly excited to finally have a solid foundation to finish this baby once and for all!





Wonder Boy 35th Anniversary!

The 35th anniversary of Wonder Boy is coming in April along with a fully blown 3D remake of Monster World IV on April 22nd in Japan! You can watch the new trailer below!

But, with such a milestone being reached with a huge renaissance as of late, I strongly believe we not only show up, but show out as far as showing support and love to the franchise overall.

So far, we have branched out in different ways such as having a dedicated discord server, deviant art collection, twitter account and even an upcoming Youtube channel.

Closing Words

That is pretty much all I have for you all right now. There's a lot more I want to say, but we'll save the next big discussion in the coming months. Until next time fellow Wonder Boy fans!

This looks all kinds of badass.
Subscribed.
Some of the Sprites are ripped. But, I am constantly working on editing them to become original. For example, the palm trees in Seaside Coast are edited. They used to be fat, but I made them skinny to get a classic look to them.
I don't know about all of the graphics, but I can see there are several rips from the Wonder Boy in Monster Land games.
Wow, these are some sexy graphics. Are they completely custom or are they ripped from something?
Oh this looks neat! I'm an old fan of side scrollin'! Been playing the damn things back in 86'! I made a short shooter using Game Maker but I wasn't too good at programming.
I'm glad to hear that:) I hope you will like it when the first demo is released.
I've been pining for a sidescrolling RPG for some time!
