PYRODOOM'S PROFILE

Turn the player into a box...?
Please explain, I don't understand.

And it is possible to force a player to be a certain character when they enter a level, though why would you do that?

Alright. Should I just wait for the next version or should I still give my thoughts on the current one when I play it tomorrow?

I did use the leaf but it just didn't feel like that's how you intended it.

If you wish to override a Toadly, please submit a request form to Toadly Labeled: Seiromem

And the request form is where?
Do I just pm you and be like "hey dude, can I have a toadly?"
Could a Dr. Toadly boss be a miniboss or are all Dr. Toadly fights full-on bosses?


i don't want you to hate me for constantly asking questions that may force you to keep editing the event page i'm just asking for clarification on details i've been thinking about or things i don't feel are clear ;3; sorry

I'm not sure I'd be able to take up the mantle myself but it's not like we'd be doing that immediately.
Glad to hear it's open at least. :3

also yeah, probably isn't a good idea to make a hub for bad levels a sewer and use fart noises
lol
Like, it's funny, and I was saying a lot of bad stuff about the losing levels, but like, there's better ways to let people know their level was bad then basically literally calling it shit. XD

I think the "worst level" placement is enough, haha.

Edit: I want to note something.
I was looking at earlier SMBX event pages to pass the time when I realized something and started to get a little worried. I won't go into full detail here in fear of discouraging people though.

Also, gonna add that the Super Mario Super Contest only had one message showing distaste for the raunchy humor - since there are no reviews for it, were most comments done in videos? Idk

edit: removed really panicked, paranoid rant comparing this project's slow start to literally every other start

I have to admit the event description is full of a lot of fluff and after reading all of it I didn't get much information for the actual event. I don't quite understand the point of the event, or why it's an event. The only theme is factory(which is only lightly enforced?) and we use some premade enemies? Is that it? 3 levels each. I was hoping for something a little more fun and interesting, as opposed to another basic Mario game.

I'll try and make one level and it will the most factorious level ever manufactured. And that's a fact-ory.

Puns.
Ha.

I kinda agree on some level but at the same time it's nothing too out of the ordinary for SMBX on this forum simply because it's "just another Mario game."
After all, I immediately drew parallels to Castle Masterpiece Set - this is just the factory equivalent.
I believe that game also gave a limit of three levels as well, actually.

The "fluff" gives personality to the event and also basically gives an idea of what we're striving for here - it's "written" by a Dr. Toadly so you know what Dr. Toadlys then to be like.

With that in mind though, while the other event idea someone had being like an SMBX Olympics was... a little meh in all consideration, no offense to the idea giver, I think that if we did want to keep up the idea of SMBX events being episode-focused, I think we could still make an event where people are judged and get prizes and stuff.
Has anyone heard of the Tower of Bias? It's a series of games paired with their respective contests(not sure how common they tend to be, honestly) run by an SMBX forum where people make levels without letting anyone know about the levels beforehand, they get judged and scored thoroughly, and then put into the episode based on how well they did. The better the level, the higher up in the tower it is.
It was a strange set-up, but it could be interesting. Wouldn't be your average game I'm sure, because
well
It literally puts all the crap at the beginning to get it out of the way
"We made sure we knew these levels were shit so players would have to play them first", plus we'd have to make a rule on joke levels being submitted and for the sake of there being a game, any levels that need heavy changes to be playable could be excluded or judges would be allowed to make the necessary changes.

It's an interesting concept that always yields interesting results - people putting in their best try to be judged, and then getting effectively a level pack of the absolute best and the worst.
You know?

In the meantime, I technically started on Dr. Toadly labelled Julian's level, though I need a different background then what I got. Anyone got a background with a giant 'window' or something like that of which I can edit out and put the underwater background behind?
I think the Metroid stuff may have something like that but I'm not too certain.
