Version B3.0.0
+ At this time, because B3.0 is
just taking off, B2.2 still might be the better between this build
and the previous. Not all levels and cutscenes are ready in
B3.0 but should be soon! Until then, B3.0 will be not be
downloadable from Yoyogames and I will attempt to promote both
versions.
+ NEW ENGINE UPDATES!
* Updating system - you can now check for updates and download them
right from the game!
* External files - levels, characters, sounds, enemies, cutscenes,
and more to come are now external to the game build. This
allows for files to download and better memory management.
This also allows for customization in the future!
* File loading - the game can now load the external files mentioned
above at the moment required OR EVEN load before being used,
lessening the loading time. So if you are going to be going
into another level section, it will attempt to pre-load it. If
you don't, the data is deleted from memory and new data is loaded!
+ Mario has the wall jump, though it is very simple.
Version B2.2.X
+ a few bugs fixed
+ NEW LEVEL! A watership, similar to SMB3's airships. It
may look very simple but it took quite a bit of programming. A
boss is planned for this level but is not present currently. (B2.2.0)
* I spent about 2 weeks working on several different features, and
some had to be ditched. That is why this update seems so small
for a long absence of an update. (B2.2.0)
Version B2.1.X
+ Few bugs fixed (Ghost House's music now continues
when you go to a different room) (B2.1.1)
+ Updated the Multiplayer Level to include a camera zoom function (B2.1.1)
* I rushed this version out because I'm gonna be gone
for awhile. Got it so it is playable but some elements are
missing and will be added in the next build ASAP. (B2.1.0)
+ TWO NEW LEVELS! World 1-7 and World 1-Castle
are now working. The Castle include two neat new features as
listed below. Several story scenes are planned for the Boss
fight in the Castle, but I didn't get to them yet. (B2.1.0)
+ New Feature: Screen Limiter. Like in SMB3 and SMW, the
player is limited to the moving screen and has to stay with it or
die. The player will be nudged ahead horizontally if there is
nothing in front (B2.1.0)
+ New Feature: Moving blocks/crushers. I'm proud of this
one because I never expected to get it working, but now it does
after about a day of bug fixing. You (and enemies for that
matter) can ride them up and down. But if you're left with not
enough room, death! (B2.1.0)
+ Redesigned Feature: elevator blocks. These were redone
and THEN I got the crushers working. Now they move in an
acceleration/deceleration path (a mathematical Sine on one axis
really). ALSO, enemies can now land and walk on them too.
You can get pushed off of them if they go into a wall. On
another note, most elevators are not solid structures, meaning if
you hit a ceiling, you will be pushed through it (B2.1.0)
+ Fixed a glitch with the halting music in the Fortresses/Castle and
Sonic's 1-4. Now it should play right. (B2.1.0)
Version B2.0.X
+ missed some nasty bugs when the memory leak was
fixed. Sorry. Moved a platform in 1-2 (B2.0.3)
+ Seemed to have fixed a big memory leak with the
sounds. (B2.0.2)
+ some bugs fixed (B2.0.2)
+ Small bug update (B2.0.1)
+ Experimenting with NO persistent rooms. Meaning that if
anything gets weird after you move to a new part of the level,
contact me. (B2.0.1)
+ NEW hit reaction! Now, when you're hit, you
will be thrown a bit and regain control afterwards. This makes
the game more challenging (B2.0.0)
+ Customizable keyboard controls AND Gamepad support! (B2.0.0)
+ 2-Player setup and Vs-Mode!! Just note that this mode is
still under HEAVY construction and is just a bonus for now. I
hope to get it fully working along with some new levels, hazards,
and more player to join in. (B2.0.0)
+ NEW CHARACTER: LUIGI! He's hidden in the game.
You must find a secret to unlock him. (You may request a hint
via email or messenger)
Luigi jumps higher but runs a bit slower and can't crawl (at least
for now). (B2.0.0)
+ NEW CHARACTER: TAILS! He's hidden in the game.
You must find a secret to unlock him. (You may request a hint
via email or messenger) Tails can swim but can't do a Spin
Launch or Spin Dash. He can also fly for a limited time with 2
other limitations; 1) He must replenish his energy to be able to
fully fly again, 2) If he gets wet, he must dry off before he can
fly. (B2.0.0)
+ TWO NEW LEVELS! Along with new enemies! (B2.0.0)
+ Cutscene dialogue can now be typed out, kinda like in Zelda games.
Also did some touch ups on the cutscenes already in the game. (B2.0.0)
+ A new Options screen. (B2.0.0)
+ Changed some sprites, like the place-markers on the map. (B2.0.0)
+ Sonic can now go into a Spin Dash while running if Down is
pressed. Note that if you release Left/Right during this, you
will slow down. Best to do Down-Left/Down-Right, just a little
tip (B2.0.0)
Version B1.2.X
+ Made the Mecha-Goombas (and related cutscenes) show
them only with one appearance. Not disguised as Goombas
anymore (B1.2.2)
+ Fixed a Ghost House glitch (B1.2.2)
+ Increased gravity and jumping speed for Mario and Sonic, also they
can fall faster (B1.2.2)
+ Visual effects added, like splashes, flames, and more dust (B1.2.2)
+ Mario's fireballs now bounce around and disappear when they run
out of "energy". They also have some neat visual effects (B1.2.2)
+ When running at top speed, Sonic can now run on water. You
can't slow down or jump-n-land on the water, you will sink. (B1.2.2)
+ Sonic's powerups are now in their early steps (B1.2.2):
- Fire-Sonic: currently he can create a trail of flames when
he runs at top speed. This is a currently a special effect and
not an offensive/defensive move.
- Leaf-Sonic: Sonic can STAND and WALK on water, as well as
run. But you still can't jump-n-land. Remember that Leaf
Mario is so light, he can float. So in turn, Sonic's
water-walking abilities would still be accurate. He'll get
another part to this power in the future.
* I want feedback on Sonic's powerups. His new sprites seem to
work, but I found out that Leaf-Sonic's sprites were not what I
meant to be. I'm colorblind, so I can't tell differences
between some colors, but I liked how he turned out
* Also, I want feedback on the moving platforms. I would like
to remove them due to some limitations in their design
+ Fixed a glitch with Sonic in World 1-2, concerning
his downward spindash into the pit (B1.2.1)
+ Bullet Bill has been updated with some better visuals
(B1.2.1)
+ Fixed a glitch in the Inventory with a Null Error
(B1.2.1)
+ Explosions are 50% bigger and Bob-omb can now be used against the
Hammer Bro in World 1-3 (B1.2.1)
+ Inventory Screen! Press Enter to see it,
along with the pause menu. To go with this, Tiny Jr's Shop can
now be visited when conditions are met.
(B1.2.0)
+ NEW LEVEL! Ghost House. This one has a riddle you need
to figure out in order to get out. Watch out for the Boos!
(B1.2.0)
+ NEW ATTACK! Mario's hammer has been replaced with his aerial
spin move that he can use to destroy block below himself if you're
still holding Action when you hit it. There is also a
non-aerial version. The hammer might return in the future.
(B1.2.0)
+ NEW ATTACK! Sonic now has the ability to do an aerial
downward-spindash, which can also be used to break blocks.
(B1.2.0)
+ Outside the program is a Settings.ini file. Use this to
adjust settings inside the game to allow better gameplay
(B1.2.0)
+ Separate save datas. Meaning also your old gamesaves won't
work with this. Now Mario and Sonic cannot pass what the other
has finished (B1.2.0)
+ Some new dust effects. Added sounds to Bullet Bill
(B1.2.0)
+ There was a reported glitch with the MP3 I included before.
I have removed it and now the Menu Screen randomly selects one of
two Midis to play. (B1.2.0)
+ In relation to the new level, the GhostLamp is a new moveable item
(B1.2.0)
+ Mario and Sonic now do powerup animations when they change power
modes. However, Sonic doesn't have any special powers yet.

should be kept or changed back (B1.2.0)
Version B1.1.X
+ Adjusted volumes and included better audio memory control. (B1.1.1)
+ Fixed a glitch in Mario's throw
(B1.1.1)
+ World 1-3 is redone. Also, World 1-4 is now playable, and
Sonic has a cutscene at the start of the level. World 1-4 has
two different gameplay-feels, one for each character so far;
Cautious (Mario) and Escape (Sonic)
(B1.1.0)
+ Bob-ombs are now in, and are able to be carried around!
(B1.1.0)
+ Hammer Bro is also in, and he has a vision-sense. If he
doesn't see you, he will continue on. Come within his view,
and he'll start throwing hammers. Stay out of sight long
enough and he'll go back to walk around.
(B1.1.0)
+ NEW MENU screen! I'm still working on the options menu.
To continue a game (remember that you can save at the map screen by
pressing Enter), select "Load Game Save" and then selecting
"Continue Game". Also, the music at this screen back be
changed by the user. Simply go into the "Sounds/Music" folder
and switch the MP3 with another and call it "intro.mp3"
