Super Mario's Moonwalker (Demo Version)
preview
By: Ryan Silberman [E] [W]
The first thing you know when you play this: I used Hello's SMB1 Engine for this game. But THAT doesn't mean you should bash the game for that. Try everything before you review.

This game is mainly a cross of Super Mario Bros and Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. Rescue all the Toads that are trapped in the doors. If a door doesn't open, that means that no Toad is trapped in there.

In the finished game, it will have 4 difficulty modes: Beginner, Easy, Normal, and Hard. But let me warn you: This game might be hard for you.

The demo only has one level and a miniboss.

If you have any suggestions for the final game, please comment or tell about them in your review (If you're making one).

Z = Shoot magic (fireballs)
X = Jump

Don't worry about the fact that you can't jump as high as in SMB. You can still stomp on enemies.
Completion: Demo Genre: Platform
Franchise: Mario

Almost forgot: Click on the cutscenes to skip them (There's only 1 in the demo, but still)

I know you meant well when you made this, but it's a BIT glitchy. Try and remove some of the obstacles, such as the GIGANTIC firebar and maybe let Mario jump higher than the enemies.

You can still jump on the enemies. Besides, remember that I'll be putting in an Easy and Beginner mode in the final game.

I like the fact that you were creative with your use of the Hello SMB1 Engine. However, the game is quite frustrating, as you can barely jump higher than the enemies. And much of the challenge comes from enemy "spamming" and level design flaws like forcing players to get hit before they can enter a small gap. The graphics could use some work, too. Just keep working on it and you might have something interesting - as long as there aren't babies and balconies involved.

Yeah, get the jumping thing fixed and then it'll be more interesting. :)

1. If I were to put in the traditional SMB jumping, then the challenge decreases, the springs would become pointless (Most of them, anyway), and the 1up secrets would be too easy to reach.

2. Easy and Beginner modes won't have any force hits. Think of Normal mode as a MegaMan kind of difficulty, if you know what I mean.

Not to be mean, but did you even TRY to make this game good? It's like you just pulled it out of your ass and show it to people. >.<

I mean, the jump height is rediculously low, most the sprites are ugly, and enemies try to kil you as soon as you start the level.

Okay, that proves you never played it even at all. I think I have explained this in the DESCRIPTION and the COMMENTS. Do I need to show it in front of your face any more? It's like you're one of those people that would just play a game for about 10 seconds and then claim if the game were to be bad or good.

I mean seriously. Next time, you play a game, actually PLAY it.

That fact that you metnioned it doesn't change anything. There is no reason why the player should jump THAT low, in any game, ever.

You could be a little nicer, it might be his first game. Also I believe he's referring to this:

BUT IT'S WAY TOO RIDICULOUSLY HARD TO DO.
Fix the jumping, and if it "Makes the 1-up secrets easy to get", then fix that. Make them in a different spot that's hard to get to when you can jump high.

The "challenge" of the game comes from things it shouldn't come from: frustratingly low jump height and enemy spam. :U
There's also lots of little bugs like jumping off of trampolines through walls, stomped Shy Guys becoming Goombas, etc.

The Shy Guys becoming Goombas is actually done on purpose, IN CASE IF YOU DIDNT ALREADY KNOW TO READ THE DESCRIPTION

"Try everything" -- Keyword being everything
Have you read the game info?

And the low jump is something to get used to.

Not sure how that goes with you not remembering to add stomped Shy Guy sprites or whatever, but okay.

Yo dudeski,i played you're game, and i did not like it. you jump hilariously low, and i hate to sound like a douche, but saying "you can still jump on enemies" isn't saying anything, why? let me tell you, it doesn’t matter that we can jump on them, what matters is that it's ridiculously hard to jump on them. Most of the jumps are just plain awkward. And to consult the Shy Guy thing, it doesn’t maker any sense, I’m sorry, it just doesn’t. The level design hurt my eyes a little, and (again, not trying to sound like a douche) it could use some ironing out. I’d suggest making Mario jump atleast one more block high, change the Goomba-in-drag to give it an actual stomp sprite, or just make it a different goomba all together. No hard feelings.

Fyi the description the author was talking about is the in-game description of enemies that you can read it says something along the lines of "The shyguys are goombas with costumes that moonwalk"

Well....I'm clearly defeated in the debate of the jumping..

Okay, I will try to make Mario's jumping a bit higher. However, not high enough to ruin some of the elements of the game.

EDIT: Now I think you might be more pleased with the final game now that I made Mario jump a bit higher.

this is actually his 102 game, so you're dead wrong on many levels.

EDIT: alright, i played a private demo, and he did improve the jumping, the jump is now a block higher. but thats really all i could see that changed.

I really think you should not change the jump.
