Rainbow Radish Road



To be honest, this level may not be in the game, I was just messing around with some of the earlier graphics and I ended up with this.

Well visually I like the concept, but in terms of gameplay, I'm not sure what I want to do. I mean, the plan as of right now is for it to be a basic platforming level, but I'm still undecided on what enemies would work best to make a well thought out challenge.

No the problem isn't thinking up a new kind of enemy, it's thinking of which existing enemies (as in ones that are in the engine) I could use that would work well together.

I don't think you are understanding the issue. I'm trying to fine combinations of enemies that compliment each other in a way that will make a challenging level, not a way to make enemies use radishes as weapons. For example, Spinies and Bullet Bills. Spinies require you to jump over them where as Bullet Bills make random hopping around dangerous.

Hmmm, I think I'm actually going to use Bullet Bills and Blue Koopas. Blue Koopas haven't been added yet, but they will essentially pull themselves into their shells when you are in range and then take off as though they were kicked like a normal shell. This will cause the player to have to take their time and avoid the incoming shells while also avoiding bullet bills.

They do pop out a bit more on the night BG don't they?

They do, but in SMW it was even worse. That still looks beautiful, though, but maybe work on the contrast between the bright and dark colors a little more? Hm. And maybe put something more special in the nighttime BG, as the level was pretty standout-ish back in SMW... hmm...
