This is the hub, the place the player will return to hundreds of times during the game. We need this to be great.


Great doesn't mean that it has to be super complex, you know.


._. My idea isn't complex at all, it's just a fleet of ships.


I wasn't talking about your ideas. I'm just saying having planets and such is very unneeded and weird.

They're not planets, they're ships. It makes perfect sense that the people Mario helped would lend a ship to return the favor. Having actual planets would be weird since...well, they're planets and can't be controlled to fly with Mario's ship. But having multiple ships would give some needed space and variation to the hub that Starship Mario (and even the Observatory to and extent) sorely lacked.

If we want more space, multiple small ships will probably not be enough. AKA main mothership like I have suggested a lot of times XD.

Ermagerd nobody ever said the ships would be small!

(Well, HP9 did but that wasn't my idea.)

My idea: Mario starts out his journey with only a small starshroom (3 at very most) and a ragtag crew of toads. As he progresses and helps more people in the cosmos, they (Gearmos, Whittles, Bob-Ombs, etc) join him on his journey with one of their own ships. By the time he reaches the final level, Mario has built up a fleet of starships ready to combat Bowser's forces. Perhaps the final level could even feature the various ships as planets, where the NPCs help Mario reach Bowser!

Reasons why this idea is awesome:
- It fits with the space theme.
- The hub will gradually expand outward rather than simply unlocking new areas of the already-existing hub.
- Each additional NPC ship will be a unique experience; for example, the Gearmos would have a very mechanical ship with some machinery showing, while the Whittles would have a very basic ship with a more natural theme, perhaps even with trees, grass, and water.
- The ships could be used in the final level to tie in the importance of other characters to the outcome of the story.
- It shows a kind of basic story progression, with Mario gaining allies as he helps people he meets.
- Bonus Moral: Help others and they will help you, because that's what friendship is for :3

Glem's plan for a Mega-Starshroom should be here, because if the hub is a few regular Starshrooms at the start...that would be more boring than Starship Mario.
A bunch of different ships for each species...probably not. Just some planets directly lifted from their home galaxy tagging along with the starshrooms, perhaps?
And the final level thing is nice (Final Frontier).


I'm talking about that gc said >_< jeez. He obviously said 'Planet' there.

Polari comes to the rescue with SUPER QUOTE.
I do have to say, we are trying to not bring up the mega starshroom up in the first place because that idea was changed.

Good, because that would be unoriginal, and uninspiring. Right now, ideas are really hard to come by, as a hub world is no easy task to create.

Huh, I never knew it was changed. So then, it looks like we could possibly use a homey mothership. The question is how would it look like? It can't be something something something that belongs in Warped Warzone.

With the other NPC ships surrounding it. And one of those could look like a WW ship if we chose to make it so.

We could just add the "Ships" in other galaxies, and then once you finish the galaxy, they will travel along with the HUB ship. It would be similar to the powerup collection idea from SMG2, but on a much larger scale.

That's the idea, the ships get added in the same way that NPCs got gradually added to Starship Mario after you've visited their galaxy.

But I am saying we somehow add those said ships into the level designs of earlier galaxies. Get what I'm saying?

Yeah, that's a great idea! I like stuff that ties the world together into one big place instead of just a bunch of isolated areas. :3

So, I was thinking:

A small pirate ship, from Shiprock Galaxy.
A slimy honey ship, from buzzing by.
A poison battleship, from Toxic Terror.
A small warship, from Warped Warzone.
A garbage disposal ship, from Shrapnel Sandbar.
A ship that harnesses electricity, from Digital Circuit.
A ship that is both lava and ice, from Flarefrost
Bowser Jr's Megahammer head, from Final Frontier.

And finally, the comet observatory and Starship Mario, once Mario collects all 242 stars.

A poison battleship? I don't think we want Mario to die in the hub unlike Peach's Castle and Delfino Plaza;).

Well the ships have to fit with the NPCs. So some of those would work, but not necessarily all.

well it would sort of feel alien and gooey, without being entirely being covered in poison.

And remember, the ships appear at the same triggers as when the NPCs appeared on board Starship Mario. So basically after you've completed their galaxy, I think?

Yeah. We should probably go with Agent's ship themes idea. They based more on NPCs rather levels.

Ninja'd

Even a "gooey" ship is... meh.

Ninja'd again

And yes, the ships should appear when the NPCs appear.

But I really would like the last 3 ships appearing, as they were all featured in previous games.
