Well its been decided we will have 5 castles. 4 elemental ones, and one main, stone one. Mario will only visit parts of the smaller castles, while he will visit the main castle more.

But shouldn't we add other types to each of the five castles? Like water would also be brick, electricty would also be monochrome, ice would be blue, etc.

Well, the castles aren't exactly elemental, just each with a different theme.
Mechanical- Ledge Hammers, gears, factory-like, plain steel hallways, some electricity.
Monochrome- Gothic arches, endless hallways and staircases. Like Castle Bleck. :3
Ice/Crystal- Somewhat like Crystal Palace for looks. Ice Swoopers, Brr Bits, icicles, and a bit of an illusion theme.
Lava- Lava, Podoboos, lava, Burn Bits, lava, fireballs, lava, fire chains, lava, Magmaarghs, and lava. Only thing missing is meteors. :P
Bowser's Castle- Polari's designing that and the airship sections between the castles.

The airship sections could be anywhere from in the middle of a Launch Star path, an ambush as soon as Mario lands, or a barricade before a Launch Star.

Guys, I am planning on making a full design for this galaxy. Although, since you guys are having a collab, I want to join in. I would like to write the full ideas in as much detail as possible, that way the design could be 100% complete. Alright, so for these castles, how are we planning to have the castles laid out? Will they float in midair and a launch star will take you to each one prior to the completion of the castle? Or will they be close together forming a Supercastle with several different sections Mario has to explore through? Or will you have to go to each castle to get some sort of key when you finish each castle, that will unlock some 4-key door which will lead to Bowser's Castle?

NSK, we'll talk about it on the IRC. We already have a collab of 3 people, so don't you think that's a bit much? o.0

So after some discussion, the castle themes have been changed.

Main Castle - Stone/lava
Icy Crystal Castle.
Overgrowth Forest Castle.
Electric/Mechanical Castle.
Dark Matter Castle.

In addition, there is going to be a command airship, which Mario will travel through, and several other airships. Polari will most likely be working on these.

No. The main castle is Stone/lava.

Fixed. I knew there was gonna be lava, but I thought it was only going to be a small amount. I remember a lot of people saying that lava should not be overused. In addition, the only part I could remember ACTUALLY being lava was the moat.

Final Frontier is more of a general Bowser fire/lava/castle level. It's EotU that changes things up quite a bit.

Yes. The main castle has the classic 'castle' theme.

I'm fine with lava being used for main castle, but I would really like to have more stone corridors than sections with lava. I think Bowser levels are lacking those corridors, and would make the castle feel much more atmospheric.

Well, at the end, we'll be running out of polygons. Partially why I was never really on board with this 5 castles idea.

So, we're agreeing on 5 castles floating around, with swarms of airships.
-The whole "allies helping" idea may be used here. Actually, it would be a good idea to use it here, because of the varied themes. (Yoshi, Starshrooms+Toads, Queen Bee, penguins, Gearmos, some powerups)
There is an ice castle, a grass castle, a mechanicle castle...
-As we've rationed lava a lot, it's fine to use it here.
-I'm thinking lines of 5 Hammer Bros. engaging Mario, squadrons of 4 Magikoopas, hordes of Astrogoombas, etc. in the final castle, maybe?
-Reason for Mario having to go through 4 other castles--> Airship blockades, perhaps.
So yeah.

Ninja'd: Yeah, there are quite a few problems.
-long time to model 5 castles
-polygon ceiling
-will too many objects cause lag?
Hmm...

Perhaps we could break this galaxy down into 2 sections and have some sort of barrier act as a loading buffer.

There could be a speedwarp between like say, the third and fourth castles. The speedwarp could have one of the largest Airship sections in Final Frontier and it could also have massive lava spam. The speedwarp might have a "highspeed" beackground like a greyish-white wormhole.

Actually, that might not be a bad idea. But our plan was to keep all the castles together. I'll have to talk with GC and Polari about this. If we have to, it may be our only option.

Or we could just use clean and simple pipes .-.

One of you guys mentioned having a 2nd battle with Giga Latiku as a miniboss in this galaxy then leading up to Megahammer Mk. II. I really like that idea, should we use it?

Tahcryon
Posted on 06-14-13 03:19 AM Link | #25481
IIRC, we scrapped that idea. Even if we are going to use him, we'd need to make him look more badass.

We can always retexture him and add more gimmicks on where you fight him, and still have the normal Giga Latiku for another boss in another galaxy. I say we retexture him black with some shades of red, and have his cloud just red with some shades of orange. And the place where you fight him can have some meteors with fire and such.

Erm, Giga Lakitu doesn't really fit here. And a fiery lakitu...well, it wouldn't really be a good idea. :P
That polygon count's going to be a problem here, what with 5 castles.
Polari is planning the boss, I think. (Red Megahammer)
