Koopa 2 Progress

Posted by Lambtaco - September 16th, 2008

I've made some progress in Koopa 2. Fixed a bunch of coding stuff and made 2 new levels. I'm able to make levels alot faster than I thought. About 1 per day, plus a bit more time when I need to make a new enemy or object. The levels seem a little shorter than AKR1, but a bunch of people complained they were too long anyway.

I'm calling on my fans for a couple of things. First, I need some better music to replace the song in the demo. I liked it at first, but that song gets irritating fast. The song also needs to fit, so it can't be power metal or something like that, it needs to be music you wouldn't be surprised to hear in a Mario game.

Second, I need some enemy ideas for an undeground level. They should be normally good guys like the rest of the AKR enemies. Something to act like a Buzzy Beetle would be great.

I'm also looking for day and night songs for each level theme. Some levels will be day and some night. This is so you won't hear the same desert song over and over in the desert world for example. I have a lot of songs already, but I'd like to replace them with something better. Here are the level themes:

Plains, a standard 2D Mario level (like in the demo)
Forest, kinda dark and mysterious
Sky, like up in the clouds, fast paced music
Shrooms, on top of giant mushrooms (like SMB or NSMB)
Caves, there are always caves
Ice, bright and white
Under Water, obligatory level theme
Desert, dry and hot
Volcano, lots of lava and fire
Ghost Houses, I want them to be really spooky
Castles, each of the 7 or 8 castles will have it's own musical theme
Map, I still need some good map music.
Bonus Stage, fast and peppy, full of fun

It seems like I'm asking a lot, but it's all voluntary,and you're on newgrounds so it's unlikely you have something important to do. Remember to use the Audio Portal.

err... i didnt complain about the levels that are long or not O.o

Lambtaco

I never said it was you specifically. It was just some reviewers.

inspectertaz

hmm... something like a buzzy beatle for an underground level? hmm i dont know... mabye a grey toadlet that acts like a buzzy beatle?

Lambtaco

Are you even trying?

hero88go1

Ohhh Here is an idea! MAke a "Speedrun" mode and put Scatman by scatman john
For the track :P it will motivate everyone to go fast!

Lambtaco

I was considering making a speedrun mode, but I figure someone would just hack the scoreboard anyway. You're welcome to play the song for yourself while playing though.

inspectertaz

thats what i ment to say. btw why wont there be no sound effects button?

Lambtaco

Why should there be? if you don't want music of sfx, turn your speakers off.

Grandmasterchaotix

Hey in the final battle in koopa revenge 2 how about this: koopa apears at the scene mario absorbs bowser and becomes Giga Bowser and the only way to free him is to destroy mario and then u fill in the rest Grandmasterchaotix out.

Lambtaco

That is WAY too DBZ for my tastes.

inspectertaz

then how do i hear the game music >->'

Lambtaco

So you want to hear the music, but no sfx? I think I'll take my chances and assume no one else will want that.

Grandmasterchaotix

Hey u mind upgrading the demo with these new levels?

Lambtaco

Not a chance. If I kept updating the demo with new levels it'd be the whole game eventually.

Grandmasterchaotix

use this for night stage music <a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/74911">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/74911</a>

Lambtaco

It's a little slow, and not quite Marioy enough. Good try though.

hero88go1

How bout this for the Underground level(s)
<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/173469">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/173469</a>

Lambtaco

I like the simplicity of it. I think I'll have to listen to this while playing the game to decide.

hero88go1

Well, i thought this one went along with the game well
<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/75190">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/75190</a>
Maybe for the last level?

Lambtaco

It just seems too techno. the music should make you want to play video games, not dance.

hero88go1

Heres a remix for the first level :)

It's already in half a dozen famous Flashes. I don't want people to be thinking of SMBZ when they play this game. Undiscovered music would be best.

Grandmasterchaotix

Hey mcsmstudios try this song on the main menu or the plains stages

inspectertaz

if you need an ending you could use this idea

when mario dies and saves bowser... they go to the castle... there will be lots of koopa troopas goombas bobombs etc.. then a chef comes in... with a huge cake.... (lets just say like the video Goomba Volume 3)

Lambtaco

I've got an ending. Alternate endings in fact.

Grandmasterchaotix

Hey try this for a boss battle music <a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/83659">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/83659</a>

Lambtaco

I don't want people to be thinking about NG Rumble when they play AKR. Thanks anyway.

SJustin

Wow... I'm Impressed. Keep it up.

Lambtaco

Merci.

inspectertaz

like Eatemupstudios says you should make a bat. insted of an M make the bat's face like mario.

Lambtaco

lol. I think that's a little too Marioized.

inspectertaz

also you could add toamps (toad chomp). a chomp with a toad top head thing (you know what i mean)

Lambtaco

I'm not so sure about Chomps. They certainly make the games harder, but they don't really add to the fun factor.

inspectertaz

then make the toamps a level 1 boss or any level boss. only 3 heads on its head. all it does it runs around.... (jump over it) then it gets tired for a while. then you get chance to jump on it. when you hit on its head two times already the toamp goes red with mad and start running faster..

Lambtaco

That is not congruent with my boss outline.

megazario

insead of buzzy betles mini marios (the toys people from m ario vs dk 2 if u didnt know) i tink there should be like flying birds that fart fire (no comment on the fart idea there wario's army) mini luigs (custom toys)

Lambtaco

Too late. I already replaced buzzy beetles with some thing I call fungi beetles.

inspectertaz

can you make bloopers about this game as special (which has bloopers and pictures and stuff like that)? like when the koopaling finish the whole game he finds a note which says "Bowser is in Another Castle" then he goes very mad!

Lambtaco

Nah. Nothing beyond the game itself.
