Homebrew Kid Icarus DS remake

[TomLandry]

Hey guys, it looks like a 16-bit Kid Icarus remake has already been done. Flip Industries developed a flash game called Super Kid Icarus, think it is exactly what you guys are trying to do here and has a map editor. Check youtube for videos if you don't believe me. And it looks like Flip Industries is looking for people to get involved if anyone is interested.

The engine was coded c++. I'll release the source within the week.

Sad to see this one die.

I think you can port flash games to the DS? Not sure... I may be stupid.

That's a completely different game. Possibly a sequel. I wouldn't know, never played the original.

I thought this thread was about making a remake of Kid Icarus with some enhanced features, graphics and sound? If so, that's what Flip Industries already did in a flash game called Super Kid Icarus (link is in my original post). Nintendo unfortunately never made a sequel to Kid Icarus on the SNES so it was up to a fans to create one, just it has already been done. Now, to the point about being portable, it can't be played on the DS, but any mobile device that supports flash like a droid etc. can play it.

Either way, just thought people who read this thread would find it interesting. Personally, I love it, and the cheats really make the game playable by anyone and remove almost everything people complained about in the original, while still keeping it like the original for those who like that.

Note: if you cheat though, you will get a thing in the lower left of the screen saying your cheating, so just a heads up..... I guess that way people can't post you-tube videos of how great they are at the game if they are really cheating

Uprising is a different type of game though, it's 3D. Uprising could be compared to Mario 64, and Super Kid Icarus to Mario All Stars, though Super Kid Icarus actually enhances the gameplay instead of just graphics and sound. Also, the cheats make the game more accessible to all levels of gamers because Kid Icarus is a notoriously difficult game.

I want to be a pixel artist!

 

[zachtheninja]

would love to contribute to this any way i can.
Pixel art and Chiptunes are what I'm best at.

So, after a few days, I decided to create a simple menu concept.
Top Screen
Bottom Screen

What format do you need the tiles in?(for tile ripping)
(PNG, JPG, etc.)
If .png, do the tiles need to be transparent?

 

[TomLandry]

did you email Filp Industries? The reception page on the site says they are looking for help.

Very cool engine relminator!
I see you like: getsufuuma densetsu I got that game IRL.
Very good source, you got talent for coding understandable code, compared to my shit

 

[relminator]

Thanks! Getsufuuma Densetsu took me days to finish since my cart was Japanese. ;*)

 

[XDel]

I'd love to see this happen!!!

 

[Lemmy Koopa]

If it's what you truly want, then go for it.
I personally am not that hyped about the Kid Icarus series like most people are though.
I suggest updating the graphics and making it nice and fresh though, because I don't see the point if I can just get a perfect version of the game with NesDS on my DS.

 

[TomLandry]

I mean once again, it already has been done by Flip Industries and has updated graphics and other goodies like cheats etc. Here is the link;
