I gave it a shot too: [img]http://i.imgur.com/pdX3MXf.png[/img] I wanted to make new enemies too, since why wouldn't a new Mario game have new enemies? I'm not done yet, i hope i have enough time to finish what i want to do.

This is some great-looking stuff, everybody! SonicZetrex, I'm assuming the head is one set of sprites, and the stem and legs another? In that case, they're each using four colours, which, while possible through layering, makes it difficult for it to incorporated as part of a game.

I think I'm almost done. I hope I didn't break NES' limitations. [img]http://i.imgur.com/aHkzerW.png[/img]

Great entries so far! :thumbsup: Keep up the good work. [quote="SonicZetrex"]What it mean is that I have to make it equal as "16x16" or shot and make sure it equals as 4 colors in each part? :confused:[/quote] I think what he means is that you could try to make each part have no more than 4 colors (one of which is used as transparency).

Updated! [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/171562799904849920/271814816140754945/unknown.png[/img]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/AJ7f1QA.png[/img] Sorry if the image is colored dots and with low quality, my computer broke and I'm using an app called Pixly, for mobile, but it leaves the images like that. For example, if I paint a red square and change it in color, some residuals of the previous color are still visible. Look: [img]https://i.imgur.com/wz56sMI.png[/img] And this spider ... her name is Wally, because he walks on the walls like a spike top, dies stomped like a goomba and leaves cobwebs by the way, so that when Mario goes over, slow down.

That spider reids of Deeler from Zelda 2. :p It's odd how Mario is so red and the Koopa is so green.

Update: [img]https://i.imgur.com/TfmUOVR.png[/img] I think it's better without transparency.

Cool! Mit, I think you have too many tile palettes (tiles are both foreground and background).

[quote="bigpotato"]Cool! Mit, I think you have too many tile palettes (tiles are both foreground and background).[/quote]If you were talking about me, I already fixed that issue. [img]http://i.imgur.com/suDCFhn.png[/img] And this is the palette: [img]http://i.imgur.com/KL8Y7Wq.png[/img] Top: Background palette Middle: Background palette for last 32 scanlines Bottom: Sprite palette NES can actually change palettes mid-frame. Most games don't do this as it's hard to implement, but it's possible without any extra chips. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43pmwBwBoHs]Noah's Ark[/url] and a bunch of tech demos used this technique in a much more complex way. Also, I know it seems like ? blocks have too many colors, but they are actually tiles that have extra sprites overlaying them. [url=http://i.imgur.com/KQucWuq.png]This is how the mockup looks without sprites.[/url] And since flickering has to be coded manually, ? blocks would have the highest priority, which would make flickering 10 times less annoying. It would occur very rarely anyways. For memory, I think this would be too much for NES to handle, but RAM chips were very common back then. Even SMB2 and SMB3 had those, and considering SMB4 would be a late NES title, I'm pretty sure it would be fair to design things around having some extra RAM. Yes, I know I'm taking this way too seriously, but hey, at least I had fun while doing this lol. [size=25]I actually wanna turn this into a short fangame now.[/size]

Wow, you definitely know more about this than I do, [b]Mors[/b]! [size=50]So embarrassing... :whoops: [/size]

That's some amazing stuff, Mors. Man, how cool would it be if we got a real SMB4 in that artstyle.

I think I'm gonna try my hand at this too. [img]http://i.imgur.com/Az45b5f.png[/img] I figured new areas might also be introduced in a Super Mario Bros 4, so here's a pine forest place. There are some things I may try to improve later, but overall I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. And yes, I made it certain that I was following the NES limitations with this one.

Why Mario have five colors? And why the mushroom in the item box have four colors? Are you trying to use layering tricks?
