Thanksgiving is tomorrow (for me). Since I'll be busy on that day, I'll say what I'm grateful for now. Read the article to see


I'm grateful for the community that was built up from this nothing game to an actually something game. You guys may not talk much as a community, but I'm just as grateful that you're all here supporting my efforts. I really never knew I would get this far. The game started out as a passion project for my favorite Mario series and to prove that I can do better than the prequel. It was already better than it at release, but so many enjoyed it that I just kept going. Now this game is almost looking professional, and I have all of you to thank. I have a few specific people to thank as well:

SniperBadBoy - He's been a great friend since before the game was even started. He made all of the update trailers, from release to now. I hope I'll stay friends with him for a very long time, he's the best. Here's his channel:

SNiPER - YouTube

Gensokyo-man - This man changed the game forever. He's the reason there are so many cool backgrounds, he's the reason Waluigi is getting a resprite, and he's the reason this game has exclusive content/sprites. I could list a lot more, but those are the biggest things. Thank you for giving this game its own identity. I look forward to your next works. Here's a link to his Deviantart, he's made some great stuff (I agree with him that the site sucks now due to stealing art):

KalibrasGamer47 - Thank you for giving me great ideas and amazing sprite edits, there wouldn't be a cool Jumpman battle without you. I know you don't want to be known as a member of the team, but I consider it as such that in my head.

Novan - Bababooie

@Lucastorm1128 - You've been following with the development posts for as long as I can remember making them. Thank you for sticking around for this long, and I promise I'll involve the character in your pfp in this game someday.

And a big thank you to, well... YOU for playing this fangame. More battling and other kinds of content soon! Have a nice thanksgiving!

The Shadow Update coming soon!

Is there any random footage you'd like to see before the update's release? Like a battle, bounty mission, or minigame? Let me know so I can show some content for you without any long stretches of silence on my part

I haven't posted much because all of the work I'm doing is just optimizing. Any talk I'd do about it wouldn't be too interesting. I do have a little something though. Here's a work in progress of Knuckles' last attack

I fiiiinally added the KO stars. I wanted to do it like how Superstar Saga does it, but I settled for how the 3ds titles do it

Here's a look at the new title screen! After pressing enter, the camera pans down to the top of Hoohoo Mountain where the character you selected is standing. After they say a voice line and pose, it transitions into the overworld

If you didn't know already, every character is getting a unique enemy select background in the coming update! (WIP sprite is temporary)

The first 2 special attacks will be available to use in the upcoming update, being Bowser's Goomba barrage and Wario's piledriver. Of course there will be specials made for everyone else, and then multiple for each. It's just a lot of work for me

Finally fixed a pretty bad bug where if you hit a block too quickly, it would keep rotating. The fix is only applied to the solo block in this clip to demonstrate how broken the bug made things lol

The Knuckles battle is completed! That means the next update is almost done!! Read the article for details on Knuckles' attacks

I added 2 more extra backgrounds to the battle customization for fun. First is a playable version of the cliff seen in both the title cutscenes and the Paperverse/F3 2024 trailer. I also conjured up a Shovel Knight background
