Mario & Sonic, Current Build: Beta 3.2

That picture is too awesome for words.

This game been scrapped?

It's called having a life.

This game is really cool, I like it!

No, it's not scrapped. I've just been very busy with full-time work and the next implementation in the game.

The next build release might not be for a week or two. Some things will have to be redone/rebuild before that time. The reason for so much effort is because I plan for a long game.

Thanks for everyone's interest.

WOW!
Now THIS is an excellent fangame.

You must be working hard on this...
The cutscenes, the engine, everything is so smooth...
It's going to my sig soon.

EDIT: There.

It appears that I may need a couple or more Alpha Testers (private testing before the public beta test). If anyone is interested, please IM me on this board. Or you may email BetaTest@Logeot.com DO NOT POST on this thread if you want to participate. Because Alphas tends to be full of glitches, please don't sign up if you just want to play, just wait for the Beta to come shortly after.

Currently, the next Beta release is estimated to be be around the weekend of September 28th, depending on how things progress. Might be sooner, might be later.

Thanks for all the support.

what's an alpha tester?

You should enter this in NCFC, if you aren't already.

An Alpha comes before a Beta. Alphas tend to be full of bugs and a bit of a mess, and testing alphas allows the bugs to be found and their fixes tested. Alphas don't tend to act like the final product, might just aim at one area to test. Betas test everything a normal user would see and do.

I haven't really given much thought into it. Think I should? I'm not sure how available I'll be during that time. (A side-question: The NCFC site has two different sets of days of the event listed, what is it really?)

The rolling rock is still epic the 25th time through

Oh, the main page has the correct date, Oct 24th to 28th. Shadowman still needs to edit the register page to say from the 24th to 28th.

A small update.

I've registered to be a part of NCFC. I haven't received a form of confirmation (I hope my Spam Filter didn't kick anything away). Nonetheless, I'll be preparing for the event.

On a similar note, I'm considering holding the next build's release to create a much larger build to be released during the NCFC event. Possibly one month from this day. The new build show bring many surprises.

Hello everyone,

Just wanted everyone to know that I do plan to make an update on Mario & Sonic during NCFC. Whether that will be the release of Beta 3.0.0 or a video or both.

I tried my hardest to get the beta released by the 24th, but I didn't quite make it. I'm down to ONE thing, and it's annoying the hell out of me cause it's bugging out on me.

Something will come, my deadline is Saturday afternoon. If someone sees me ("Logeot", "OmegaDestroyer", or "Log316") in the NCFC chatroom and have questions, I'll be willing to answer most.

Cool. Hope you can fix that bug.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like either will be up by this weekend. The video maker I was using is now corrupted.

Anyway, I've posted a LONG message about the game, along with some new screenshots and exciting news about Beta 3.0

I'll post news here as the game development progresses. There is a small chance of B3.0 coming out this weekend.

I've just found this, gonna try soon. I've always wanted to make a game about them both and even had the same name in mind
Spoilers:

I thought out all the levels and bosses and gathered all the music and that's it. I can't code a good engine

Hey, maybe if your a good coder, can you make a Make-Your-Own-Level-Option?

So um, is the "water ship" ( ) the last level for Mario? No new paths seem to have opened after i beat it.
I have still to try Sonic though.
Overall, this game is good, but i didn't like few things. Mario seemed too slow (well i got used to it fast). Also i had to press all the buttons after the scene loaded for the game to recognize them, and 'cause i like to hold "run" button down at all times, this was a bit frustrating. Also i wasn't able to find the purpose of mario's spin. And some levels seemed to short
But i guess most of this will be fixed or explained, and this game already has loads of great things.

I mentioned in my NCFC update that Beta 3.0 does have a Level builder in it, but it won't be accessible until it's cleaned up. That would be closer to completion of the game itself. Otherwise it is possible for people to learn the coding technique and build one that way. You'll just hafta wait and see where all this goes.

1) Yeah, that's all the levels I've programed thus far.
2) Mario is more of the adventurer for the game, while Sonic is the daredevil one. Each ones abilities will come into play.
3) Default keys are the arrows and Z,X,C. You can change these in the Option menu.
4) Mario's spin attack can be used to destroy blocks underneath him if Action is pressed during collision. I made this to match with Sonic's downward spindash slam
5) The short levels were mostly do to limiting lag issues. I hope to get that stuff sorted out soon and make some good-n-long levels eventually.
