This is my fan game Paper Mario Bros. This isn't my first fan game this is my sixth fangame. This one is way better than my other ones. The game uses a custom engine made by me (some of my other games used somebody else's engine and not one made by me.) This game is being made in Game Maker if there's any suggestions you have let me know. Screenshots!

Looks good. :thumbsup: [ispoiler]Also if there is no plot, why are the X-Nauts evil because at the end of TTYD they turned good?[/ispoiler]

[quote="TheJullasicFox"]Looks good. :thumbsup: [ispoiler]Also if there is no plot, why are the X-Nauts evil because at the end of TTYD they turned good?[/ispoiler][/quote] Wario cloned them and used the Dark Star to turn them evil

Mario rescues Peach from X-Nauts once again!

There is an awful lot of negative space in the screenshots. One way I think you could vastly improve the presentation of the game is to zoom in on it a lot more. [img]http://i.imgur.com/86lLtIZ.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/7cNw5kz.png[/img] Your ratio appears to be 640x480. The resolution of the smaller image is half that: 320x240.

I'm sorry I like using big ratios.

[quote="SuperMario198"]I'm sorry I like using big ratios.[/quote] The problem with using such a big ratio is that most of the screen is empty. If you're sure you want to do it that way there's nothing I can do about it, but I just want to make sure you know that it's kind of an instant way to tell that a game isn't very good. Shrinking the ratio will make your game look a lot better.

The game has been resized! Does the background in the title screen look okay? Because I had the stretch it. [img]http://bin.smwcentral.net/u/28688/PaperMarioBros4.png[/img]

It looks fine to me.

Thank you!

There's a lot of clash between the Paper Mario sprites, the Yoshi's Island Koopas, and the SMAS SMB1 stuff. Those are three very different graphical styles, and they don't look great next to each other. See if you can find more graphics from the Paper Mario series to replace the Super NES stuff.

Ninja has a pretty big Paper Mario lib (Which is the person who made the Mario sprite) I might use it. Also the Goomba has a Yoshi's Island style. I forgot to show a screenshot of that lol. EDIT: Some are Yoshi's Island sprites recolor so should I use the current spries or use the recolors?

I wonder what version of Game Maker is this being made in. Studio 2? Studio 1.4? Legacy 8.1? 6.0?

Should I use this Goomba sprite? [img]http://bin.smwcentral.net/u/28688/goomba.png[/img]

Yeah that would look better. Why not use all Yoshi's Island graphics?
