I am working on this thing. I call it Jumpy and Speedy. http://www.box.net/shared/rpy2y1khq3c6sm3iv5c4 It's basically a game where Mario and Sonic team up, only instead of "Mario" and "Sonic," they're called "Jumpy" and "Speedy." This is because everybody hates it when you try to use sprites from different games in one game. Hence the minimalistic graphics. This is a demo-ish version, which means that all the levels (that currently exist) are already open, so you don't have to beat the early stuff in order to test the later stuff. I am currently up to World 5, which is much farther than I have gotten with a game in a long, long time. I also currently have the ability to breathe underwater turned on, but normally you have to win this from the two-player boss battle in World 4. Share and enjoy.

When you get to the part with the boxes that you're supposed to break from below, it's one box too high and you can't progress any further :V |

Wait, where am I supposed to go after I did the block thing? This game needs more helpful things telling you how to play... |

this is true another thing about the game: it's kind of impossible to do several things playing as jumpy, e.g. beating the first three levels and the first boss (if you don't have fireballs) |

They really don't It's my way of protesting not being able to just use existing Mario and Sonic sprites.Hmm, I drew the instruction manual at the request of someone else who couldn't stand boring-looking, easy-to-read instructions. So yeah, I can never really win. I wonder, would it help if I sort of outlined each illustration to separate it from the others? It is, of course, impossible to get to the end of level 2 with Jumpy, but that was the point. It's perfectly possible to beat levels 1 and 3 with him, though. And the first Jumpy boss retracts his spikes after about ten seconds, allowing you to jump on him again. It's pretty similar to the Koopaling battles in NSMBWii, only without the shells. I don't know why the backflip gets everyone. I mean, yeah, you have to read the instructions, but, like, I guess I just wanted to avoid having the angels actually say "press this key." I don't know why--the game's not exactly designed for immersion--but I guess it's just a stylistic choice. I hope I don't sound irate, though, because I really like getting replies. They're so rare on most forums. So like, yeah, the backflip is for getting up the stack of boxes, and following that you merely have to hug the left side of the screen and you'll fall down to the lower area. And I'll look at the instructions and see if I can outline them. I just really don't want to have to organize like ten pages, you know? And I don't think it's asking a whole lot to read them in the first place. But I hope somebody liked it enough to keep playing, because it goes quite a bit farther than World 1. |

Suggestion: Make the Heaven a tutorial. It's already basically a training zone, so just make the angels tell you how to do stuff "press z to jump ect ect."
asdfgsf why would you listen to him lol |

He said that no one would read the instructions if they were boring, and that was why nobody could beat heaven. I guess he was wrong. I just hate going back and screwing with things that have been done for forever, especially if I'm this close to actually finishing something for once... But it really does seem that nobody can beat it. Well, if I redo Heaven, then can I leave the instructions the way they are? Or delete them?

if you do a good enough tutorial, no instructions will be needed. |

HOW DO I BACKFLIP??? |
| I know I'm not the first choice for heroics...and y'all've tried to kill me more than once. And, I don't fancy a single one of you at all. But... Actually, all that sounds pretty convincing. I wonder if Danger Mouse is on. | |
