MASTEROFMAYHEM'S PROFILE

Ok so I’m just about finished with my second castle and have fixed up Babel.

Your expert opinions would be appreciated.

First off, thank you to everyone who commented on my level. It was the first thing I ever made on SMXB so I’m glad it was likeable.

With that said I wouldn’t have been surprised if it was rejected for not being castly enough, but since you Ok’ed it Isrieri I’ll go ahead and fix it up than.

So what I’ll do is get rid of the lakatu and replace it with some more parakoopers and maybe some thomps (and yes I am aware hay can be killed by shells, that’s why I did it) and reduce some of the bullet bills.

That just leaves replacing all the blocks in the second section which will be annoying but tolerable. And I might add a P block too if I can figure out what to do with it.

Nope. This is a Sonic 2 stage song, not Sonic and Knuckles.

It's Aquatic Ruin.

Gamepad compatibility is such a pain in the ass I forced myself to learn playing with the keyboard.

You have to Start up the actual game and arrive at the title screen. If you go to Options, you'll be able to change the controls from Keyboard to Gamepad or Controller (its been a while). But you must have your Controller plugged into the USB port before you start up, otherwise it won't register. THEN you exit out and go into the level editor, finally able to play on the Gamepad.

As for elements that define a castle? I suppose it should be self-contained. Meaning it needs to be indoors primarily. You can have outside areas, but most of the level should take place inside the castle, proper. Use the castles from the early Mario games for reference: Particularly the ones from the original Super Mario Bros. Mario 3. And Mario World. Firebars, Lava, a Ceiling, whatever. They should be the template, but you can be a little creative with it.

Yeah I tried that, but I the game won’t register my controller I don’t think. Even though I always have it plugged in (for RPG maker preposes). Which is stupid because it works on everything else.

Ok then... Now where did I put my copy of SMBX?
