Mario vs. The Moon Base

If I haven't said it before. I'll say it now or again. This is very high quality stuff. If you charged $10 for it. I'd pay it. I know you can't charge since its copyrighted material, but I'm just saying its worth it.

These levels are a lot of fun, beautiful and colorful. They aren't excessively challenging. It feels like if Super Mario 3 had a sequil on the SNES, this would be it.

Mario's Dream

I think I would like it better if there was more variety with your levels. There seem to be a lot of grassy hill zones in a row.

Super Mario Bros. One X

Playing now...

Your Mario sprite has a box around him. It follows him. I also feel that your Mario should be the old Mario 1 guy just to keep with the old school motieff. I think with your flagpole you can make a NPC for the flag instead of having the Mario 3 rotator. Change the death sound to be old school Mario 1's death.

1-1: The first level was just a reversion of Mario 1's first level.

1-2: Meh... That cluster of lifts toward the end seemed too easy.

1-3: The 1-up should be hidden... and wow what a quick level. Bad.

1-4: Really... wow this was quick. Try making these levels a lot longer.

I'm not saying these things to be mean or rude. I think that if you put more time into your levels you'll see an improvement and it will be more fun and challenging for the player :-)

Wanted: writers, designers and artists to create RPG

What platform is this for? What engine will this use?

I'm not sure you need 6 months pre-production. You might want to establish what you're going to try to make. Programmers establish the mechanics. Writers write around those mechanics. Level designers design around those mechanics and the engine.
