"A horrible person". That's what it says. "A horrible person."

We weren't even testing for that.

Everyone is currently writing posts for the "double the amount of words in the previous post" thread, which is why nobody is posting.

If that actually was the case, it would probably be ridiculously easy to take first today.

Yeah. It scares me. I rarely manage to get one post a day, let alone 15.

I haven't been feeling much like posting today

Hmmm, 5k in 2028? I wonder what the world will be like then.

Yeah, such is my amazingly fast speed of posting.

Maybe by then I'll have an editor for NSMB6.

At least you can hack I have no graphics or level design skills so I can't make hacks, despite having the technical skills to do it.

It's not so hard. When I make rooms I just put the tiles I feel like putting... XD

I don't have graphic design skills either, actually I'm good with building something out of objects like level editing, but not with building something out of individual pixels.

Yeah, but I always end up with repetitive or unoriginal or empty designs. Even then, they just feel boring and aren't as fun to play as other hacks or Nintendo's original levels.

Why should that even matter? As long as you have fun making it then that's the biggest thing!

I think the ROM hacking community tends to put super-high expectations on newer ROM hackers

I actually prefer old-style levels-only hacks over fancy stuff with all-new custom graphics and ASM changes.

I've always liked both types, but the fancy stuff seems even better to me. Especially SMB1 hacks like Extra Mario Bros, XXXX, Giabbit Hunting and so on.

Of course level-only hacks (And tileset editing now) is the only thing I can do on NSMB.. but I'm not good at even that.

Extra Mario Bros backs up the new things with some very well designed gameplay. That's what makes it so good!

But... you should hack for the sake of having fun. Not making something that everyone will think is good.

I did like DahrkDaiz's Mario Adventure, actually

Usually though, it feels like people change graphics just because they think nobody wants the hack with the original graphics

I'm a perfectionist though. I can't have fun hacking if I'm ending up making crappy levels, and if my hack isn't fun to play (even for me).

It actually took me a long time to play some games. I just only recently played Mario Adventure, SMB3 and SMW all the way through. Strange right?

It also made me realise how overhyped and unfun NSMB is. Especially compared to SMW. Sure, I shouldn't be talking, but still..

I didn't like the power-ups in NSMB other than the classic super mushroom and fire flower Mini Mario is vulnerable and awkward to control, Mega Mario works in very few levels despite Mega Mushrooms being common-ish, and it seems much easier to kill oneself with Shell Mario than use the power-up for its intended purpose.
