God damn, the length of this one is impressive. Cant wait to watch all this, it’s well worth the wait

@MamaLouiji Год назад

Thank you! I spent like 3 months working on this, so I hope that the work I put into it is apparent!

@TJOEL20 Год назад

Just found your channel yesterday, you make really really good content. Super informative and great humor. Looking forward to more

@MamaLouiji Год назад

Thank you so much! I worked really hard to balance the humor and the informative content, so I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

now this IS a tasty burger

@MamaLouiji Год назад

It's wagyu beef, what'd you expect! (Thanks, though seriously lol)

@GribbleGob Год назад

maybe the mountains weren't a difficulty selection, but the person who drew them had multiple done to see which looks better with the entrance of the cave.

@MamaLouiji Год назад

I didn't even think about that! That could also explain why they're labeled really weirdly, perhaps there's a document that was made before that one that has designs 1 and 2?

@@MamaLouiji actually if you look closely it reads 1~3

@x130z Год назад

Holy shit bro, good work on this. An hour is crazyyyyyy

@MamaLouiji Год назад

Thanks!! It took a while to make, so Im glad you liked it!

@Pasakoye Месяц назад

The first 30 mins mins could have been a video on its own. Thanks for all this.

@MamaLouiji Месяц назад

I'm glad my hard work wasn't for nothing, thanks for watching!

A slay!! Good work, chief

@10:48 The smallest mountain is not labeled "No 3", it is labeled "No 1~3". The "1" mostly blends in with the thick grid line. So the first mountain is around 1 through 3, the second is 4, and the third is 5. EDIT: Also, the screen mock-up uses the middle "No 4" mountain, not the largest mountain. The mock-up mountain is 14 blocks wide at its base, which matches the "No 4" mountain. (The small mountain is 8 blocks wide, the large mountain is 20 blocks wide and extends all the way to the right edge of the screen.

Final Document comments: it appears to be a sprite call sheet. They often only have half parts as they can just mirror them - they also often can orient them however they want to. Just my thoughts

@alstroem Год назад

finally sat down to watch, this was amazing ! your research ability is unmatched !

@MamaLouiji Год назад

Thanks a lot, Alstro! This video was really exciting to research since a lot of the details of the pre-release materials haven't really been dissected at all, like the earliest iteration of the map is something I haven't seen discussed at all prior to my research! Being one of, if not the, first person to fully go through and compile a lot of the details alongside new discoveries of my own was an incredibly fulfilling way to spend the past 2 months, haha. I'm really happy you enjoyed the video, and thank you once again!

@alstroem Год назад

@@MamaLouiji The hard work definitely paid off. Still hoping to work with you on that certain iceberg vid 👀

@MamaLouiji Год назад

I'd still love to do it! It's just a matter of sitting down and putting the pen to paper (well, fingers to keyboard lol), I think working on that Mother video for so long had me burnt out on the subject for a little bit but I'm starting to get back into it, so keep an eye on your inbox over the next few months!

@MikeThePsykat 3 месяца назад

There's a dogu doll type of enemy in StarTropics. I wonder if it's just the 2 development teams using the same inspiration, or if they where using the unused Zelda enemy. Guess we'll never truly know. Speaking of Zelda & StarTropics, I always thought that Pipit in Skyward Sword looks a lot like Mike, which I can't tell if that's on purpose or just a coincidence. I could very easily believe both at this point.

@mccloaker Год назад

Now I kinda wanna play a Beta Zelda mod with all the cut ideas. Maybe some all new dungeons with jiggly blob guy and ox tiger for the boss.

@MamaLouiji Год назад

That may or may not be something I'm working on at the moment 😉

@mccloaker Год назад

@@MamaLouiji Oh neat. Just be careful not to overreach! Don't need 9 entirely new levels. Just 1 or 2 to satisfy everyone's curiosity? Anything too extensive and you might have trouble finishing. Heh, I imagine getting the magic lamp as the dungeon treasure, lol

@MamaLouiji Год назад

Its scope is pretty limited for now, and Im going to try restoring the "original" dungeon length for at least the moon dungeon since I'm still blown away by that. Im going to try and implement beta sprites for enemies too, like the Ghini, Boulder, Octorok, Gleeok, Aquamentus, etc. Could be a cool little half-hour experience

@mccloaker Год назад

@@MamaLouiji Good! Sounds about right. Not gonna try to implement any new enemies or items then? I won't ask for specifics, gotta preserve that surprise o'course

@MamaLouiji Год назад

There's a few Im thinking about based on that design document earlier, particularly the fire enemy and moth-like thing since they could probably have the most unique behaviors. Item wise I have a few ideas, but Ill keep my lips sealed for know lol

@DBZLegends.SSJ4 2 месяца назад

After they released the history book about the lore they might drop all the design documents eventually but I don't think it'll be dropped like soon 😢 I hope I'm wrong
