Super Mario Online

[Raikyo]

Hey guys! I'm Raikyo from the MFGG Community. Some of you may know me and I also hope to see some people I know! I've got a new project called Super Mario Online. It's a Mario (MM)ORPG. I hope it's okay to copypaste some stuff from my post from the other forum cause it was a pain in the a** to format the text.! I don't have much free time but I try to work on the game as much as I can. I will update this post as often as possible !

---About Super Mario Online---

The idea behind this project is creating a big mario world with many features where you can play and hang out with friends or meet new people, chat,, fight monsters, etc. Think about a World of Warcraft minus the 4523453 players and stuff plus elements from the Mario universe! Planned is a tactical round-based battle system (similar to Pokémon), different worlds to explore, player housing, item collecting, etc. So basically it's an online role play game with platformer elements. Theres much stuff planned and the game will get through many changes as ideas come and go. There are different maps like Towns where all players can meet, form a party or guild, chat and do differnet stuff. The Places around these maps are instances where only you and your party members/guild members are visible. So you can go and hunt monsters and search items with your group!
And now head to the Developer Diary to see some screenshots! There is no release, yet but there are going to be closed alpha tests. So Some people can test the game and also help me to find bugs! I'll post news when there are tests! There are going to be open beta tests for everyone, too!
See you soon in SMO!

not to be rude but I'd advise you remove the part asking for help, it may have this post mistaken for a request post and to my knowledge you have to have been here for a short while to be able to post requests (in the requests forum)
I'd also advise you skinny up the post a little, the formatting is nice and all but finding info about the game is a bit of a search and even then there isn't much of it.
so far all I think I know is its an online mario game (an MMO-Platformer, not so much an RPG) you level up because... ??? which gets you... ???

its a neat idea but some fleshing out of the concepts would be nice

[Raikyo]

Thanks for the infos. I've changed some stuff in the first post!

Daw and I came here for a download link I remember this game

These are really good gifs. I can't do better, being poor and all...

Those gifs aren't part of the thread. They're part of a signature.

Cool, this looks pretty interesting. I'll be following this project.
