Will V1.1.0 Save Files be compatible with the final version? I don't want to play it half way thought and then have to play it again.

[RetroRespecter]

I hope the new version plays like the one we got.

Pikaspray Yellow did a video on your game! but you might already know that. It's cool how far this game is going to implement both 3D and 2D elements of a Mario game, together.

This game is so flipping impressive. Looking forward to this when its complete!

Will V1.1.0 Save Files be compatible with the final version? I don't want to play it half way thought and then have to play it again.

Sadly they won't since PSF is getting ported over to GameMaker Studio where the file handling is significantly different than GameMaker 8.1, but the game will be much different as well, so it won't feel like you'll have to do everything once again.

I hope the new version plays like the one we got.

It will, of course! Just much smoother and better to control!

Pikaspray is really one cool guy for making such a very informative video on PSF, I'm really happy he enjoyed it so much! But now even though v1.1.0 was released not too long ago, the new port just looks and feels so much better compared to the original for now.

This game is so flipping impressive. Looking forward to this when its complete!

Really happy to hear so! It's gonna take a while to get the whole game ported over to GameMaker Studio, but I'll be sure to release more demos along the way, so stay tuned!

So it's been a while since I've been active on the MFGG Forums, or MFGG in general...

I've made a lot of progress on the PSF Studio port, and have been showing it off on GameJolt, the Discord Server, and Twitter, but not really here.
I didn't even post the new demo to the MFGG mainsite. Kinda started to move away from MFGG.

But if anyone is interested here are some gifs of the GameMaker Studio port.
This is also the original Waterfall Walkway area, but the main section is going to be remade, this is acting as more of a testing level right now.

Just by looking at the .gifs, I can tell the controls feel a lot more like Super Mario World, and the hitboxes have seen a massive improvement. This is looking awesome, my dude.

[RetroRespecter]

Wow! That is a lot of progress.

[HellJumper]

Aside from the Super Mario World styled Mario and Luigi sprites, this game is looking awesome! Really looking forward to all the game nights I'll be having with my friends on the multiplayer mode!

If you'll be adding more moves like the long jump, and that only increases the hype levels I am currently experiencing. I wish I could help you out with some custom Mario and Luigi sprites that'd fit the game, but you've made it clear that you are keeping those SMW ones. It's not that they look bad, they just look a tad out of place in a game with SMB3 styled tiles and NPC's. I think the main reason for that is they don't have black outlines around them like everything else in the game.

Looking forward to release!

 Jumping feet first into hell isn't my job; making sure it's crowded when I get there is.

Anyway, I'm sorry to hear about the fate of your game, @Random.NICK. It looked so polished and had some cool stuff that you don't see too often in fangames, such as co-op. But I can understand, though; it's easy to dream about doing the biggest fangame ever, but much harder to actually do it, especially when you're doing it by yourself. In the future, I'd suggest focusing on the main things in a game (such as the adventure), then polish it up and add some nice-to-have features (like online play) once the fundamentals are done. If it's becoming too big and a lot of work, then it might be a good idea to consider scaling it down and cut off some of the fat (my Battle in the Future game, for example, was going to have many bosses, but I ended up only doing a tutorial boss and a final boss, since I felt that it's taking me long enough to do just a couple and just decided to get the main stuff done).

I'm looking forward to seeing the final demo, though. It's nice that you're at least letting us experience what's left in the game. Who knows, maybe someday you'll feel like you want to get back on fangaming after taking a break from it and continue this project. By the way, good luck on your college studies, and I'm sure it'll be interesting to see what you come up with for indie games!

Just released one last version of PSF called the Star Archives.

It's a collection of unfinished content from the PSF Legacy version including unseen levels, Wario and Waluigi, and even extra game modes! This is a true sendoff to PSF. Thank you all for the great years on MFGG. Now I've decided to pursue bigger projects starting with my own indie game!

Thank you all for everything. I really can't thank the MFGG community for all it's done for me throughout the years. I've met so many awesome people from here and I have such a large debt to this amazing community of Mario fangamers. Thank you all again for all the years of fun and support, I hope all of you go far and also I hope you guys will also check out my first indie project called Aurascope. It's my first large scale indie project and I hope to grow it just like PSF over the years. Thank you MFGG.

I finished playing the Star Archive earlier today. I'm glad you shared the unfinished content - it's good stuff! While some levels are clearly incomplete, the Star Archive is still longer and more polished than the majority of fangames out there.

It's a shame these couldn't have appeared in the final game, but I totally understand. Here's wishing you all the best with your indie project! You're always welcome to share news and updates on indie work here, too - I think there's lots of folks who would love to see it.

Course clear! You got a card.
