Mario's Nightmare Quest (Wario content inside)

It's a Mario game mod I'm working on, with a fair amount of stuff from other series. Guess what one series one of these is?

Yep, the Wario one. So here's some of the Wario stuff being implemented:

Mystic Lake themed level

At least one level with be themed on Mystic Lake from Wario Land 4, complete with the exact same foreground and background.

WarioWare content

One level with have a WarioWare theme in parts, because surprisingly, some of the content from Ashley's intro scene in WarioWare Touched works rather well in a SNES game.

I'm also considering having Ashley herself as a boss opponent, which would be interesting (if likely poorly received by some fans).

Wario Land 4 toy level

Not done yet, but at least one level will have content based on the Topaz Passage in Wario Land 4. This will be easy enough, since I already managed to get three out of four passage level tilesets and backgrounds for Mario End Game, I just needed to get a good version of the foreground for Doodle Woods.

So yeah, thoughts? I already used a bunch of Wario series stuff in one of my other projects (my last main project had levels based on Syrup Castle, Crescent Moon Village, the Topaz Passage and Pinball Zone among others)
 
Ashley would make a cool boss.

Yep. I wanted to see if she could really cut it as 'villain' material. Especially given how the main villain here is Antasma, who might want to choose ANYONE BUT Bowser to hire.

I am debating whether he should merely use her as an unwilling lackey in the dream world or just plain force her to fight Mario though. Would it be too cruel to have the Nightmare King use her family as leverage to make her turn against the Mario bros?

Is that in character for this guy?



Really neat! I actually support the 'Ashley as a boss' idea.

And BTW, not to invade on your works, but I may be able to help out with spriting...

Do you have any samples of your work? Cause I'm interested!

Well, I could, but I'm actually using a different laptop that doesn't have any of my sprites. :( Sorry!
 
Well, a few updates. First up, since I probably won't be using the graphics for outside Ashley's Mansion, I'm now releasing them as ExGFX:

It's this BG:

I've still got a level based on Ashley's Mansion, with her as a boss, but I'm using different tiles, and not really featuring the outside of the house much. I might use these sprites for a post boss scene though:

And oh hey, what's this?

A level based on Rice Beach from Wario Land 1 (blocks and sprites still to be added). Background is from Palm Tree Paradise (Wario Land 4), foreground is from SMW Central and is a hybrid of Wario Land 1's Rice Beach and Wario Land 4's Palm Tree Paradise.
