A Mario fangame! It's a fangame! With Mario!

[Pik]

So first, another mockup of something I wouldn't have been able to do with the old Mario and Luigi style.



Second, an in-engine screenshot for once.



Thirdly, some sprites. Again, Mit's been a huuuuuuuuge help with these. I'm terrible at shape. Not so bad at shading them though: I like how Metal Mario turned out in particular.

Everything looks great, though I'd avoid using such a high-color gradient. They sorta break me out of the pixel-art style I assume you're going for...

I'm nitpicking. Keep up the good work!
