I hope you're not insinuating that the pipe boots are FP's creation. It's been around forever. >_>

Nah. I stole the style of which he wrote that joke in the Volta thread. Maybe I shoulda been more specific...

Quote from Squishy:

Red Mushroom (Mario Suit, WTF?) (Cpadolf)

In what way are you referring to me there?

Quote from Cpadolf:

EDIT: Oh, and I don't know how hard it would be or if it would even look good, but a red helmet/arms/shoes and blue body for samus suite would perhaps be fitting.

Also, a slight update, but not really...

You guys know how hard it is to make a new story for SM right? Cliffhanger did it with lore, and who knows how Green Kirbys doing it... but most people just leave the story alone, right?

Well, I've come up with a great story driving element! I will be writing the story in Fanfiction format, and will be releasing chapters of the backstory up to the release of this hack!
I will be releasing the Prolouge soon, and will release chapters as I progress in my hack.
Yes I know, you can shower me with praise now;)

Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

I've never really seen the need for a story, although I'm not saying it isn't a welcome addition. I have just assumed that it's a remapped Super Metroid.

I would suggest keeping the chapter very short, though, or you face the hordes of TL:DRers.

"Once upon a time there was a woman. She wore a power suit. She also had an arm cannon. Her name was Samus Aran. She saw a Goomba, and laughed maniacally, before annihilating it with a glitched VAR beam, which, as we all know, is akin to the wood beam at full charge."

Good luck! grin new

HELL NO!

Samus won't even appear until more than half way thorugh the story...

edit: I take writing very seriously. If I can't think of something to say, I wait until insperation comes. I would NEVER write something as bland as that. I hate people who write that kind of thing and ACTUALLY think its good.

edit2: No promises on short chapters though. If you don't like to read, then don't read it, I'm not forcing you... yet.

edit3: (oh come on!) Here an example of my work... buy I haven't worked on it in a while... 2 years? I'll finish it eventually!
Theres three chapters up so far...

Yo.

I would read it.

I read anything, pretty much. I also take writing seriously, but I've never written anything SFW before, so's I can't link to it here.

Whatever you want to write, squishy, I'd read it all the way. Even though fanfics make me a little queasy...

I love reading. I normally read for at least an hour a day. I can't help but feel that you misinterpreted my reply and took it the wrong way. I meant no offense at all, and if you took it to be so, then I apologise.

On another note, could a mod or admin please fix the grey background for this post, as I'm not sure what's up with it. I'd appreciate an explanation via PM, so I don't make the same mistake again. Thanks in advance. Very Happy

EDIT: Please ignore the above request. I've just noticed that all previews have a grey background. Embarassed

Why do you not notice these things until you think it's become a problem.

It looks fine to me. Did you make sure you've accounted for all of the quote tags in your post? Is the number of quotes in your post messing with your browser? If yes to the latter, then I recommend Firefox. Wink

No offense, but I think it would have been better to quote everything you wanted to give the same response to under one set of tags. That there looks like overkill. Also, the Wood Beam's actual strength is not known to man. Stop pretending you're a God who can estimate the true force of the Wood Beam. Razz

Regarding my post: yes, all tags were closed. It just appears grey in the preview, but when you post, it isn't. Strange. Thanks anyway. Very Happy

Regarding the separation: I separated because squishy had separated, and I wanted to make the point that each of the responses made by him were a little harsh in my opinion.

Actually, I've always thought of all video game hacks to be fanfics in their own right.... Eh?

This looks amusing. Expect me to play it.

Also, squishy, let me glare at you:

Hated by all

Missles - Yoshi Eggs
Supers - Hammers
PBs - P-Switches (I think people are agreeing with this)
Grapple - Rope, maybe?
X-Ray - Boo Mushroom
Energy Tanks - Green Mushrooms
Reserve Tanks - Heart?
Charge Beam - Moon Piece (or a Yellow Fire Flower, take your pick)
Ice Beam - Blue Fire Flower
Spazer Beam - Green Fire Flower
Wave Beam - Purple Fire Flower
Plasma Beam - Red Fire Flower
Varia Suit - Mario Head
Gravity Suit - Frog Suit
Morph Ball - Poison Mushroom (or that Yoshi's Island Flower when it's not open)
Bombs - Bob-omb
Spring Ball - Springboard
Hi Jump - Feather
Speed Booster - SMW Yoshi Map Icon
Space Jump - Wings
Screw Attack - Star

Some of this may not happen, but oh well, I tried.

Maybe the Reserve tanks could be the Life mushrooms from paper Mario?

No reserves...
I never really liked them, so I will not be using them in any hack I make from this point on.

I Wouldn't worry about what they could be. Is the idea to mix SM and SMW enemies or to only have SMW? Seems like giving them the same AI wouldn't work out in a lot of cases.

PB- Ok, FINE! I guess I'll do a damn P-switch... (can't think of anything else...)

ANd I like alot of those new suggestions Playerman! I'll be using the speedbooster one for sure!

Nice prologue. It sounded a little weird being addressed only to Luigi, but.... meh. Keep them a' coming!

Which music are you going to use?

Nice prolouge btw

You could use a POW block instead. From the arcade game you know.

The prologue did sound a little strange being addressed to Luigi, rather than Samus, but I have imagination. I can handle it. Very Happy

The last part should read something like 'head to the castle posthaste', as posthaste means as fast as possible. It currently reads: "Afterwards, make as fast as possible to the castle", which doesn't really makey da sense.

Eh? Why would a letter from the Princess be addressed directly to Samus? What I was saying when I was referring to how weird the letter was being addressed to Luigi is that usually Mario is the one being called upon.

Something else is strange here, too, since even Bowser takes his time to regroup and attack between titles, and him attacking another province after immediately failing at Delfino seems... unusual.

You don't have to be a good writer to tell someone what you did and didn't like from his or her story. If squishy himself is a good writer, you can bet he'll appreciate your comments!
