Mario and Luigi: Superstar Simulator

Diddy Kong will probably be my second favorite echo. He'll seem better than DK but sometimes power changes make a difference. Moveset in the article


Since Diddy is smaller than DK, he'll have a smaller hitbox, which might make it easier to dodge attacks. His jump move will be like everyone else's except he can jump twice like Mario with a well-timed X press. Next he has his peanut popgun, which like DK, he charges it up and shoots. This move will also have a timed X press part. If you succeed, He'll pull out a second gun and charge up once more. I'm not too sure about the third attack, but from what I'm seeing in the spritesheet, it'll probably have something to do with a barrel cannon. The last picture is of a concept that gave me the idea of echoes. Diddy will have a second jump in his dodge state. If you press Z while jumping, he'll do a second jump with his rocket barrel. It's like Mario's spin jump in the Octogoomba battle. Cya next time!

Fun Fact: I was thinking of adding Mr. Game and Watch as a playable character because obvious, but the idea seemed more ambitious than I thought, so I scrapped it.

The first two player battle is here!!! I finally figured out how to code it, and the first boss fight to celebrate is quite the unorthodox one. Iconic duo vs iconic duo. Enjoy, and thank you for this wonderful milestone!

The first test for detailed palette swapping was successful (for the most part)!

Through some quick testing, I can confirm that Superstar Simulator works perfectly on Steam Deck! All you need to do is add the EXE file to your Steam Library, set the launch option to Proton, and set your controls to keyboard and touch screen!

We have a question and we wanna know: What's your favorite platformer? Complete the quest and you'll get 100 Coins!

Here's a heavy work in progress of the new pause menu! More options will be available, but for now I added the ability to choose between each available palette

Gonna be trying out a new damage output equation in a future update, much more complex than what there is now and it'll make battles much more interesting

Here's a work in progress of Mr. L's third attack: his signature super jump! There's 2 parts to it, the first being the aiming of where you land and then charging up the power. With spiky enemies like Basilisx here, you'll have to intentionally miss

Bowser's Furious Disaster

What's really funny about the poll is that Sonic was the least voted for. I bet you changed your mind now XD (Work in progress)
