Apr 28, 2020 9:39 PM | Gaia | Game: Trials of Mana (JPN) | Might have to remove the (JPN) status now that it's widely available in a collection! |
Apr 28, 2020 9:10 PM | Omega | Asset: Pokémon (3rd Generation, Normal) | I just realized after taking a long hard look at this sheet for something, Castform is not even in it. |
Apr 28, 2020 8:15 PM | Astroclimber26 | Asset: Multiple Tilesets | I have no idea what the lightning is, if I had to guess maybe it would have shrunk you like in the Mario Kart series and it was scrapped in favor of the mini mushroom |
Apr 28, 2020 7:21 PM | LeddleDee | Asset: Enemies (SMW) | Imagine if they kept all the old designs |
Apr 28, 2020 7:05 PM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Domino | Yeah, the randomness of the factory bosses relative to the established theme irks me. The Count could at least be seen as the factory's punch clock, given the "overtime" thought. (Also Gunyolk looks like a tank mixed with a locomotive and a steel vat to me.) Honestly though, Punchinello would have been more logical since he has a bomb theme, and Knife Guy (but not so much Grate Guy) could also fill this role. I think maybe some bosses were switched around in development for difficulty curve purposes. Boomer and the bureaucrats at least look like warriors of different varieties, but that still toes the line. And I have no idea if the things that are sometimes in Domino's hands are supposed to be some sort of weapons or not, but they look more like maracas than anything. At least Cloaker clearly has actual weapons. Maybe given the deserty theme they were meant for Land's End or some completely abandoned conceptual area? For that matter, would have made more sense to have had genie bottle-looking guys in the temple area rather than the temple be inexplicably dedicated to some random lazy dude you meet earlier in the sewer. As a side note, it bothers me how the translation left Earth Link's JP name alone while changing the rest; Mad Adder and the bottle-looking yahoos previously also had "[Element] Link" names, but just "Earth Link" alone makes no sense. My guess is Woolsey only ever saw Cloaker's snake and didn't know what the "Earth Link" in the script was. |
Apr 28, 2020 5:44 PM | shadowman44 | Asset: Badnik (Sonic Pocket Adventure-Style) | or that they won't go full sicko mode if someone uses the bg color here on another sheet |
Apr 28, 2020 4:52 PM | You Gotta be Joshing me | Asset: Ice Paradise | @The Observer not really, just wondering. |
Apr 28, 2020 3:49 PM | Ton | Asset: Domino | I always thought it was odd that the Smithy Gang was all weapons until they just ran out of weapons and made random bosses. Mack - Knife Bowyer - Bow Yaridovich - Spear Axem Rangers - Axe Exor - Sword Gunyolk - Gun Countdown - Clock? Cloaker and Domino and Giant Snakes - ??? |
Apr 28, 2020 2:58 PM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Domino | @Ton To go with the Arabian theme, they're snake charmers too. |
Apr 28, 2020 12:26 PM | MDTravis | Asset: Sonic (Sonic 1 Beta-Style) | Nice one |
Apr 28, 2020 12:20 PM | Ton | Asset: Domino | Huh. That's a really good observation. I still don't know why they have giant snakes, though. |
Apr 28, 2020 12:12 PM | Naffy zacky | Asset: World Maker | I still wonder why do they call the Castle theme "Volcano" when it's clearly looks like Castle |
Apr 28, 2020 11:02 AM | Paraemon | Asset: Ice Paradise | @YGbJm - Is that a problem? This was one of the backgrounds missing from the Advance 2 page. |
Apr 28, 2020 10:48 AM | Mr Yporolsa | Asset: Ankoopa | literally unplayable |
Apr 28, 2020 10:23 AM | GensokyoZXRedAce | Asset: Reimu Hakurei (Sonic 3-Style) | Now this. This is some GOOD stuff right here. |
Apr 28, 2020 5:59 AM | Murphmario | Asset: Badnik (Sonic Pocket Adventure-Style) | At least this one isn't saying that you'll get murdered over a bunch of pixels. |
Apr 28, 2020 4:08 AM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Domino | I think I finally figured out what he and Cloaker are. They're living ancient Arabian incense bottles (like a genie might be found in, though Domino looks more like a hookah specifically). Their clothes and weapons also have heavy influence in depictions of ancient Arabian/Persian culture, with Domino having a veil and Cloaker having a fez, scimitar and jeweled round shield. Not to mention the giant cobras. Now, as for WHY they have this design influence given their location...that's the question. |
Apr 28, 2020 4:00 AM | doonie11238 | Asset: Death Egg Robot | funny how this is the final boss in Sonic 2 and it's just walking around Green Hill Zone in Mania |
Apr 28, 2020 3:56 AM | Christophero726 | Asset: Enemies (SMB1) | where is the color of laser random talking BUSH |
Apr 28, 2020 3:36 AM | You Gotta be Joshing me | Asset: Badnik (Sonic Pocket Adventure-Style) | Something tells me that the credits tag here is gonna age like the ones that made empty threats all those years ago... |
Apr 28, 2020 3:20 AM | TehPuertoRicanRipper | Asset: Sonic (Classic) | @Thomas_15700YT He doesn't respond because he's dead. Try to go to the right submitter next time. |
Apr 28, 2020 3:06 AM | TheHumanSonikku | Asset: Burner Man (NES-Style) | Hey look, the most annoying Robot Master |
Apr 28, 2020 2:39 AM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | @RTB I personally have no beef with this couple of sprites, though I beg to differ on one thing: "Sonic.EXE" isn't an "original character," he's an idiotic and lazy stylization of Sonic, similar to Fleetway Super Sonic, but stupid. Additionally, I haven't a problem over the source being unofficial, but I don't want it to be misidentified as being so, as that's misleading. |
Apr 28, 2020 2:35 AM | N-Mario | Update: Super Mario It's Gonna Be May-ker | I wonder if there's a site or generator to make that GIANT font like that. It seems ASCII based, or something. Looks neat. |
Apr 28, 2020 1:35 AM | KodyCrimson | Asset: Metal Sonic (Sonic Battle-Style) | Is it alright if I use this for a fan game I'm making? |
Apr 28, 2020 1:13 AM | Random Talking Bush | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | Look. I shouldn't have to say this, but we (the staff) don't just blindly accept things on The VG Resource, we have our reasons for allowing things like this on the site. We discussed this particular submission for a while, and after some deliberation and considering the fact that this thing is technically semi-official (Miami New Times isn't Nintendo, sure, but it's an official news outlet so that's got to count for something, right?), and most of us found it amusing overall and decided to approve it. Also, what about all of the ROM hacks and fan game submissions we have on the site already? Should those not be allowed because they're not official? Plus, I feel it's also necessary to bring up how you guys never complained about MisterMike's Terminal Montage-styled Kirby sheet, despite the fact that's not an official thing either... but apparently rabidbaboy's Kirby sheet is somehow offensive too despite being a wacky stylization of an existing character? Seriously? It was bad enough I had to purge the comments because it was just so demoralizing to look at. So no, something like this existing this doesn't mean that we're just accepting OCs like Sonic.EXE or the 145th Undertale AU. We need silly things like this to keep spirits high at times like this, and as my dad would regularly quote, "Lighten up, Francis". |
Apr 28, 2020 1:04 AM | Garamonde | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | You guys ever hear of the saying "if you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all"? You all need to seriously calm down. There is nothing objectively wrong with it. If you don't like it, scroll past, don't all come together and bash it like it's the plague. What has this community come to? It seems nobody likes anything silly or fun or out of the norm anymore. Also, our quality control is not "all over the place", it's called "encouraging creativity". Stop with the "how was this accepted" comments; we have our (good) reasons for accepting what we do, with the exception of when we occasionally overlook things. Anymore negative comments here and action will be taken. Please get over yourselves. |
