The engine test looks promising! I'm interested to see how this'll progress. Where did Luigi's graphics come from?

Also, I still need to finish playing Abducted Toad. I just got a new job, and I'm taking summer classes, so I haven't had much free time lately.

They're made by NO Body

So I've started working on this again, and it's time for another engine test!
Download exe
Download source
There are 3 rooms in the engine test. Use page up/page down to switch rooms. The rooms are:

1. Enemy test room. The same room as from the old engine test, but now with tiles
   
2. Shells and slopes testing area
   
3. WIP first level
   

Screenshots:



Also, plot ideas:
I'm not sure about the story, but the main antagonist will be Waluigi. I've also got an idea that there will be "Waluigified" versions of enemies; sort of like the Fawfulized enemies in Bowser's Inside Story.

I'm really looking forward to trying this, but both of the downloads are the source files, not the .EXE. I don't have GM 8.1, so it's a bit of a headache to try to open this in Studio or ENIGMA.

Whoops. Fixed.

I played the demo, and your game looks quite promising. It's nice to see Yoshi's Island-based graphics in a fangame. Some of the tilesets need to be realigned, though. I assume the 8-bit sound effects are placeholders.

Which tilesets need to be re-aligned? Also, by 8-bit sound effects, I'm assuming you mean the jumping sound. It's actually from Brawl. I may or may not keep it.

Hmm... it seems the tilesets are OK in your screenshot. However, the tiles in every level are out of whack on my computer:

That's really weird. I remember when I first posted this, someone had the same problem. I have no idea what could be causing it.
