*Remember, the "CHANGE LOG" is constantly updated to show progress! Also, sorry for mild inactivity; computer problems are a thing, nowadays.Kai's Journey (abbreviated as just "Kai") is a long mappack, using the "Infinite Things! (Infinite Music-Sublevels-Worlds)" mod to create many worlds!
However, I'm not quite there yet!
The soon-to-be extensive mappack is a mildly funny twist amongst normal "Mario" levels, sometimes featuring things you don't quite expect! It is a somewhat challenging adventure throughout the Mario universe... "At least, MY version!" Experience Kai's Journey through what he'd see in an enjoyable game! The initial release will (hopefully) bring a hint of nostalgia to the mix, having you laugh to yourself while feeling like a person who triumphs over things! Funny and nostalgic things, mind you.
16 Worlds are planned. Two of them are completed.

World 2 Complete! Watch the creation!
Note: It is highly recommended to play the mappack using the "Infinite Stuff" mod. (Link below mappack download) There are multiple custom songs in use. And yes, I plan to use different music on EVERY stage (with exceptions, like intermissions), so the mappack may be bigger than normal, granted I don't know by how much.

CHANGE LOG (Careful, lad! There may be more text than ye bargained for!)
Code: Select all
2nd Alpha Demo Version 0.2 [Latest Version]:
++ Used Audacity to alter music volumes and timing issues (Underwater themes will ALL be the Bubble Man remix, except for the last one, which is probably going to be on the second-to-last world)
++ Working on "specific additions" (not implemented in this version)
+ FINISHED World 2 and figured out World 3
+ Made a .zip file and a .rar file
+ Colors tileset and backgrounds implemented
+ New videos for Version 0.2
+ Over 18 awesome custom songs so far (In the mappack, not all are yet in use; some music may be removed entirely, like most of World 7)
= World 7 (Electric) is planned to contain many portal puzzles.
= Plan to make remaining stages at least 50 blocks longer than averagely before
= World names may not be constructed until the Beta version rolls around
= Most backgrounds are set. 2-3 and 2-4 do not have backgrounds in this version
= Replaced World 1-1's overworld/underworld music
- Looping is poor on World 1-3's castle section
Code: Select all
Alpha Demo Version 0.1 (1st Phase of Action)
+ Started Mappack "Kai"
+ First world completed (Snapshots!)
+ Landscape self-approved (a hint of "realistic hills")
+ Troll-y parts that are meant to make you laugh instead of yell (You'll love what I did at the end of 1-4.)
= Happy with at least half of the custom songs in use
= First world easy
= 10 or more maps to go
= Stages may be relatively short
= Secret warps that lead to blank levels (One can be found in a snapshot above! One can be found "thinking with portals," one can be found thinking "outside the pipe," and one can be found if you love to find clever connections between stages.)
= Funny intermission scene can catch you off guard, perhaps confuse you greatly.
- The "Infinite Stuff" modification is most likely mandatory for the full experience thus far. This mod may not be compatible with certain mods.
- Mediocre castles
- Lack of thinking with portals (There are some spots you should use the portal gun, if you want 'dem bonuses.)
- A potential bug at the end of 1-2, if you're Small Mario. (Should not affect overall gameplay.)
- Inconsistency of relevant background music (Not a big problem.)
- Uninteresting backgrounds (for now)
- Some inexperience
- Unequal volume levels between songs (May or may not be a problem)
- Original entities and graphics, no themes or additional scenery (I need to find some of 'dem things.)
Overall, it's a proto-prototype. And I'd like your feedback/critique to help me make a better map, if things aren't going smoothly in the first place.
