Mario and Luigi: Superstar Simulator
3 years ago

Luigi's picture poker is finally complete! It was my most difficult coding challenge yet, and the result is super satisfying. A big thanks to my spriting team for making it look beautiful. Read the article to see how the minigame works


You beat Luigi if you have better card rarities than him. Cloud is lowest, then Mushroom, Flower, Luigi, Mario, and Star is the highest. You have a higher chance to win if you have the same amount of card rarities in one hand. One pair beats nothing, then 2 pairs, 3 of a kind, Full House (3 of a kind and a pair in the same hand), 4 of a kind, and then Flush (5 of a kind). If you both have the same hand, then the scores are counted to see who wins. But if the score and hands are the exact same with both players, nobody wins. You can set the multiplier for how many coins you or Luigi receive when one of you wins. The multiplier multiplies the score you get when you win and gives you that amount in coins for you to spend.

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!

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

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)

We've got EVEN MORE great art from your fellow Jolters for #GameJoltColors25!

The artists are all tagged 🔽 Be sure to like their original posts!

To thank you for the overwhelming support the release of the new update has received, here's a sneak peek at something I'm working on! (Wip)

This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates Wario! Accept the quest in your quest log to get started.

The first boss battle of the next update is none other than the great Papyrus! Luigi seems to be struggling a bit... but he has something up his sleeve this time. Read the article for details on Papyrus' attacks

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!

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