Well, since the old one went down along with the rest of the old message board (RIP, you will be missed), here's the all-new Maru Mari feedback thread. Feel free to provide myself and Houston with feedback as to what you liked, didn't like, and what you'd like to see in Maru Mari.

The new strips are great (hmmm, that reminds me I'm due to make an update on my own comic...).

Also, where are all the other strips? The only ones I see listed are the newest ones. Maybe its just my computer being crappy though...

You're not the first person to ask that. Is the link too obscure? The font is kinda small, but it's right at the top there...

Maybe I'll ask Tim for a sidebar link when we redo that.

Well, maybe if the link was larger and didn't blend in with the site's format so well...

Oh, I see it now. I was expecting a list similar to how they used to be listed. But this way works too. I just suggest you move/add another archives link after the new strips.

Sorry, but no. I can't waste space cluttering up the side menus with links to stuff that, frankly, shouldn't be hard to find.

I made a compromise linking to MP Sequence Breaking in the site intro, and that's as far as I'm willing to go. There are more important issues to worry about with the site than to link small things.

Rage mentioned this in the news, but I thought I'd throw it out here too:

We're gonna be entering into Metroid Prime territory really soon, but since there's no sprites in MP, we can't exactly rip sprites for it. So we're gonna need sprites, preferably 16 bit sprites, that approximate MP environments and creatures. If you know of anything, give us one of those "shout outs" that hip young kids seem to enjoy.

I can make you one sprite that will solve all your problems... I shall present you with, THE SINGLE BLACK PIXEL!!!!!

With this uber-sprtie, you can form almost anything!!!  :D

Well, I'll see what I can do, but dont expect much from me.

Hmm... custom made sprites would be cool, but I don't really expect anyone to go through the trouble. Ripped sprites from SNES games is more what we had in mind.

If you do cook something up though, that would be spiferoo.

Probably because we're being so inconsistant about updating the dern thing.

Toozin & Houston/Rage:
About the Metroid Prime thing.  You could use buffed-up SM and MF sprites.  Or, I could try to find sprites & backgrounds that fit.  Or use a sprite editor.  Just for fun.  If I do find such a thing I'll send it to you.  But, I want credit in return if I do. :)

Oh, we'll definately give credit where credit is due. And the Samus/Houston sprites are already taken care of. We're looking more for environments and creatures unique to Metroid Prime. Obviously we won't always find exactly what we want, but we can mix and match sprites. We already have a recepie for Flaahgra thought up that takes several different sprites from several different games.

Oooh, cant wait to see that.

On a side note...Was I the only one who ever thought the water in Prime was poisonous because Flaagrah was peeing in it?

Well may I suggest that you try to take screenshots of the critters in metroid prime, turn of antialiasing and scale em down?

That may be able to work, yeah... it would take a bit of doing though. We can try that out if none of our other options pan out.
