Title: mari0
Post by: shmibs on March 06, 2012, 08:17:56 pm
this game is pretty fantastic. before i say anything else, here are some screenshits:

(http://img.removedfromgame.com/imgs/Screenshot-Mari0-2.png)

it includes a complete re-creation of the original mario levels as well as a portal map pack with some fantastic puzzles. oh, and you can make your own, too! =D the best part, though, is this:

and you can even make your own hats, too, if you add them in manually (it isn't supported by default).

the game is written in lua, using the LÖVE 2d game framework.

https://love2d.org/

oh, and if you're running on linux, getting it to work is a bit tricky. you have to add this ppa:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bartbes/love-unstable

and install the love-unstable package from here for it to run. you can use that from the command line to run it, or, if you're lazy, install the current release (.72) as well from the official love site, head to /usr/applications, and change the properties of the LÖVE desktop file so its command is love-unstable instead of just love. that way you get all the fancy MIME types, etcetera, and can just double click to run it.

Yeah I tried it and it's definitively great. You must change the controls, though, because the default ones kinda suck. X.x

Post by: aeTIos on March 09, 2012, 02:56:56 pm
It's already been a day so I'm double posting to bump the topic.
I created a level, more coming soon.

Readme for installing the level: (I only know it on windows XP)
Go to this directory:
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\LOVE\mari0\mappacks

and unzip the files in the zip there into a new map.
Have fun and please comment!

EDIT fixed stoopid mistake in level x.x

If he did that on purpose, it's a sort of joke :P

(already asked bboy for how he did the portals)

I know Darl181 :P
shmibs did it so hellninjas "mocked" him :P
Also, I agree with you.
It really is an interesting concept
But 1 question.. did he come up with all those hats or gathered them from all mario games?

I first heard of this game prolly over a year ago, Stab Yourself makes some great games with Love and love.

I actually preferred "Not Tetris" to Mari0, but Mari0 is really impressive, I loved the game!

Not tetris is great indeed.
Also wow, long time no see ephan O.O Also dont you mean *Lua and Löve?
