A Mario fangame! It's a fangame! With Mario!

[Zero Kirby]

Progress on this game is still kinda slow (what else would it be, really), but I've been giving a new art style a try:



I was aiming for something more... alive and handdrawn-looking than my old one. And looking back, this image is really really stiff with a somewhat drab pallet:



Also debating between having dialogue in cutscenes and not having dialogue in cutscenes. What would you prefer: goofy pantomime antics by itself or with goofy dialogue?

The dialogue would be along the lines of "It's Wednesday! Bowser always kidnaps Peach on a Tuesday so clearly, his latest plan must be extra dastardly!" and "Well, if it isn't Mario! And his lime-coloured shadow! He actually brought you along for the adventure this time!" and "Figured it wasn't over yet. Sunset Heights was in plain sight of the drawbridge and the Princess was moved to another castle."

Self-referential humor like that.
