Super Nostalgia Wars
« on: May 02, 2011, 11:31:44 PM »


Note: This project idea and leader is MDI, not me. I've just started this topic when MDI wasn't registered here.

SUMMARY

Super Nostalgia Wars is a fullgame I am creating using the Mugen engine. The point of this project is to create a game based on 2d sidescrollers, mainly using sprite styles with realistic proportions similar to Castlevania, Actraiser, and Contra. The games mentioned will also be included in the content.

So I decided to make a Mugen game dedicated to 2d sidescrolling characters from mainly SNES games. Much like Serio's Castlevania Fighter, my goal is to have various main characters to choose from, with CPU-only bosses as enemies.

I really want to include bonus stages that include hordes of enemies to battle. I want this to seem less like a Boss Rush type game, and more like a simplistic 2D sidescroller/beat-em up.

-MDI

CONTRIBUTORS/MEMBERS OF PROJECT

  • MDI (Characters, stages, screenpack, etc.)
  • O Ilusionista (Bosses, Characters)
  • Zvitor (Characters)
  • EXShadow (Stages)
  • EXELord (Sprite ripping)

SPRITE SIZE COMPARISON CHART



Please, when suggesting a new char, take this image on consideration.
A char won't be ok for the project if:

  • If its bigger or smaller of the sizes allowed. This applies to human chars only. Robot, monsters and whatever are okay.
  • If its superdeformed (big heads, big arms, etc) - So, no Mario, Sonic, etc
  • Its out of proportion. For exemple, Shinobi is taller than Hulk, something impossible.
  • Style clash too much. Exemple: NES chars, heavy blackbordered chars, etc

CONFIRMED CHARACTERS

(Content will be change to fit the new material)

I figured I might as well post here.  ;D

So the post that was quoted above was pretty old and outdated, although for the most part things are the same.
There have been a few changes though..

-Superman is no longer featured in the game.
-The lifebars have been changed and may change again in the future.
-A few of the previously shown characters have been updated since the post.

If you guys want to see any updates to this then just keep an eye out for my playlist on my Youtube channel.

That looks wonderful! :o
Never tough to see Hagane in mugen, he's one of my fav characters, also I enjoyed Run Saber back then.
Would there be Fang from Contra HC and Shinobi?

Also maybe this witch for a change? ;)

Thanx.

Fang seams to be a fan favorite and it may be in. But Shinobi is too tall, saddly :(

The images doesn't opens

I love the concept, I'm feeling nostalgic already. One suggestion I would have would be to perhaps program a short level before each boss battle. I know this is very unlikely to happen and would be quite a trial to set up the base code in the first place but it was the first thing I thought of when I saw this project.

I like the updates in the project elements too.

Thanks.

This idea is what Serio made at his game (Castlevania, and MDI said he wants to make something different from that project):

http://serio.piiym-net.com/CVBla/
(this project uses a Assembler protection which enables DLC content. Its amazing)

its hell cool, I know, but he wants to make something different. This is why he won't make many Castlevania chars.

The numeric damage display will be implemented.

Yeah, CF is cool project, though there should be Sakuya instead of Reimu :P
BTW, did you played Majuu Ou game on snes? It's very castelvania-like I like it's setting and how hero becomes more and more demonic from stage to stage(or it becomes tougher then hell for him). There's neat bg's, cool freaky enemies and so on.

I want Blackthorne in this game!

Yeah dude, I do too. It is just impossible to find sprite rips of him, and I wouldn't mind ripping the sprites myself but disabling the background on SNES emulators doesn't quite help because the default background is a shade of black that is shared with Blackthorne himself, so I can't crop out the background without messing up his sprite too. Its nuts.


That looks wonderful! :o

Yes as Illusionista said she is too tall. I had considered her before but yeah..
Of all the Contra characters Fang should be the one to make it into the game, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I know a guy who could handle it: Enscripture. He is a master of this thing. I will contact him.

Yeah, too sad some chars can't be in, like Shinobi. There is no game version with sprites on right size, its a shame :(
The same with Golden Axe.

Even this project isn't beeing mine, its so good to see so many people suporting it.
Because, from every people I've worked before, MDI is one of the most cool people I ever worked with   :thumbsup:

Are sprites of Blackthorne from GBA suitable? I made small romhack(ummm, wouldn't call changing one color in hex editor romhack, but still) and I can rip sprites out there.

P.S. sorry for jpg, it was converted from bmp and AnimGet makes shots in bmp, of course I'll make sheet in png if this's good.

Unfortunately he has a few less colors then the SNES version. For example, his gun + t-shirt are just one color (white) while the SNES version has two shades of gray. Also, the same white is used for the brightest color of his skin. ARGH..

So I simply can't recolour him with the SNES palette, except with some patience and sprite editing..which I don't mind.

So in other words, yes I encourage you to rip a full sheet. It would be much appreciated! Just make sure to get it all. Walking, gun actions, non-gun actions, etc. and I'll definitely make him a character.

Didn'tcha read my post? The SNES rom shares a color of the character with the background so you can't crop it out properly.
If he knew how to hack the rom the same way he did the GBA one though then that'd be even more helpful.

Also, new video.

I have good news too. After long search of emulator with palette viewer or tool with similar functionality I was able to find it(vSnes) and change needed palette with SnesPal. So......

I would give my support for Blackthorne again, but people are already around it. The third level of the game (the desert one) have a very clear blackground with no black shade, so it would be easier to rip from there.

How about entering Michael Jackson in this game too?

Don't worry about it, I riped most of sprites, just wait a bit longer till I finish and post it here. What left are jump/climb/fall, trowing grenade and receiving damage, I think everything else already in sprite-sheet.
Dunno about Jackson 8-}
