The Mushroom Engine
« on: April 17, 2009, 07:41:26 »
I am not exactly sure if I should post this here or somewhere else, but the moderators may move it wherever they want if they think it's needed.

Hello, gentlemen!

Some time ago I made a rather bad experimental game called 'Jump On Mushrooms: The Game'. Nifflas was interested in the concept, and wanted to remake the game, this time with his awesome skills. I of course helped him, but he did all the really hard work. And so we got this Mushroom Engine here. The game also has some very cool musics, made by D_Fast!

The game is based on a database-like application, and you select the worlds from it. Everything in the worlds is external, which means that you can create your own levels now. More about that in the ReadMe -file.

The gameplay hasn't changed from the earlier game, though I guess most of you haven't seen the older game. For those who don't know how the game works, I wont spoil it here, try and see yourself! The ReadMe should explain everything needed, if you're confused. Nifflas has also added some new things, which make the game a lot harder!

Whoa. This came out of nowhere. Its a pleasant surprise though. :D
I have never heard of the "first" one, but the screenshot looks interesting enough. I'm downloading it now.
My only star: :hiddenstar:

Very neat! The default world is too hard for me, tho! X)

Anyway, great concept. I may make some simple levels for it. :)

EDIT: It didn't come with a blank level, so I made one. :P2

This is perfect. I've been trying to think of how something like this could be done, and I never came up with a way that would actually be fun to play. This completely did everything right.

Yeah, this was suggested at TIGsource too. It's a rather good idea, though how we could explain the player avoiding coins?

Well, otherwise the player's avoiding blank space, which isn't much better.

Maybe the uncollected coins could turn into something else you would want to avoid.

Hmm. Worth considering. I'll discuss this a bit with Nifflas.

Very interresting, but too easy to impossible possition.

EDIT: How do you get the editor to work?
