Towns!; Cus SMF:R will have them!

So, it has been discussed within the development boards that towns should be implemented into SMF:R. Towns will have several purposes:

- To further the storyline of SMF:R.
- As a quest hub.
- Used as a Shop.
- To change characters.
- May even hold a potential arena.

So far, World 1 has 3 towns already decided upon and will have no more than these 3.

- Mushroom Plaza in the Grasslands.
- Shiver City on the Ice Continent.
- Toad Outpost in the Dark Lands.

As well, all other worlds will get no more than 3 towns, with some worlds only getting 1 town (World 4, Brill). We will be taking ideas for towns for the other worlds and spritework for the current ones.

Nice!

Let me see what ideas I can offer.

Midgard can have a city of mermaids and mermen within one of the oceans.

Di Yu might have a chapel or temple built, which would have relics keeping away the ghosts and goblins.

Terra Alternata might have a camp in the savannas of sub-Saharran Africa. It might also have Shanghai.

I haven't seen the topic come up elsewhere, so I'll take the chance and address it here. If SMF:R is to have shops, does that mean that it'll have an associated currency system? Will current coins be used to purchase items, or is some other sort of plan in store for that?

Terra Alternata could have an army supply base as a town. Some of the Metal Slug characters could serve as primary NPC's there.

<Deleted>. I thought World 4 was Ocean of Oblivion instead of Di Yu, my bad. >.>

A castle would make a good town for Midgard. There could be a knightly "mounted combat" arena present, where the player gets a chocobo to ride.

I thought of maybe giving the Score a definite function. Maybe the coins can be used as currency and the score can be used to build up to 1-ups. Items might be made fairly expensive so that building up funds by collecting coins wouldn't be too quick or easy.

For Ocean of Oblivion I suggest a destroyed city, like the kind you encounter in the future in Chrono Trigger. The city would be occupied by one of the last pockets of civilization on that world, struggling to survive against the malevolent spirits and monsters.

If the intent is present to keep coins as the primary currency system, they could change it so that a player could stockpile coins past the typical 100, and then allow players to make the choice of either acquiring powerups (at a varying coin cost) or 1-Ups (at the traditional 100 coins a pop) at a shop. Ace Coins could still be used to acquire 1-Ups without the use of normal coins.

Alternately, collected Ace Coins (aside from granting 1-Ups if all 5 are collected in a level) could be amassed in a separate counter, and used as the primary currency for shops. It would give players additional motivation to go out of their way to collect said Ace Coins, especially if they know that they missed one early on in the level; it'll go from "Well, I missed the first Ace Coin so there's no point in bothering with that mechanic for the rest of the level" to "Well, I won't get the free life, but I can at least get a few more towards buying that Shell suit at the shop".

I agree with this idea. It makes you want to collect the ace coins instead of never using the mechanic :|

Around 2:44. That's what Brill is. An Undead town.

The town thingy is very good, a safe place to make all the necessary preparations.
This is the typical stuff you can find in a typical signature.

Oh, and a typical loldog picture too:

Well,for the Midgard,i would suggest a town which is based on a Final Fantasy/Dragon Quest theme or a dwarven village.

For World 6,the idea of a space station goes best imho.Something like the Spacecolonie ARK from Sonic.

I'm gonna go for the bizarre here and suggest that for Terra Alternata, every town should be some obscure, middle of nowhere place no one's heard of.

Why, you ask? because a place no one has heard of is much less likely to catch the attention of the forces of eeeeevil. >_>

Of course, that just opens up the door for untold numbers of people suggesting their own hometown or whatnot, so maybe there should be some criteria for qualification. Only... funny-named places? Only... cities with a population under some arbitrary number? Only... towns from third world countries?

Or maybe not, I dunno, Just throwin' it out there.

Possibilities under this idea:
Wabush, Canada
Gisborne, New Zealand
Gbarnga, Liberia

... or maybe one of those antarctic research centers if you aren't planning on making an Antarctica-based level. Hell, if you want to crossover into Mario territory a little, I think Mario Is Missing indicated that Bowser had a castle in Antarctica at one point. >_>

Great Fox should definitely fit if Andross is the main nemesis in Outer Nebula.

lol not suggesting, but in Austria we have this little town with the lovely name "Fucking" :lol:

look here, for people who won't believe me: http://www.extremefunnyhumor.com/pics/Fucking_Austria.jpg

btw, we spell the "u" in the name like "oo", so it does sound different.

A town in world 6 may be based on the central hub world of NAJU in the Guardian Legend. It's inhabitants would be just Red Landers and Blue Landers though.

For those who have no fricken' clue what I mean by Lander is. Here is a link below. A pic of the Lander (Blue) is right at the bottom - bear in mind it is a review.

Guardian Legend Review
And yes, I currently have a stock lighting ball as an avatar - live with it, I'm lazy.

Skins WIP by VeteranPortal:
Retro Luigi - Luigi sprited as he was in SMB2/SMB3, NES style. Complete as of V0.41, JUST have to upload it now and share with the world.
Retro Link - Link sprited as he was in Zelda II, with powerups coming from as if Zelda II was like SMB3 . Completion - 70%, Normal, Boomerang, Bow and Cloud Link Complete. Classic and Deku Link Largely Complete, Bomb Link on Hold for now, Now it's down to Zero Link or Arbiter Link. Due to plain lack of energy and Dev plans to update Link this skin will be on Indefinate Hiatus. My sincere apologies to everyone anticipating this skin.
??? - TBA of commencement. Currently due to lack of time and motivation. Plus V0.5 is a ways off so I can't even get the sprite layout. Hint: It's from an old Compile Game back in the 80's yes, that's a vague hint.
