Will we ever do a new community-based fan-game?

I think the only one that is not dead or canceled is, if i recall correctly, Super Mario Bros and the Midas Machine.

The one that i really want to see back is New Super MFGG Bros. (With a different name probably.)

Other places where you can find me:

DeviantArt

Angry Birds Nest

Sonic Retro (NOTE: You need a account there in order to see me, and i'm not active there.)

Start one! It doesn't necessarily need staff approval or anything. Just get some people together and make it.

Vimimin Hylian's day job, little did we know, was saying controversial things on the internet.

Mors you fool!!!! you fixed it wrong!!!!

Interested in web development? Check out Super Mario Web Development. Wahoo!

And when they've given you their all
some stagger and fall- after all, it's not easy
banging your heart against some mad bugger's

I would absolutely love to see this! If anyone wants to start a new CFP, you're more than welcome to do so.

My only advice is to keep scalable - make something like a minigame collection where you can start small and increase the scope of the project if a lot of people contribute. (This way, if interest fades, you'll still be able to release a shorter but enjoyable game.)

Course clear! You got a card.

Agreed. This.

It would be cool to see a CFP. The only problem is that scale is an issue with these due to people losing interest. Games are big and take a lot of work.

I think one way to remedy the issue of feature creep is to make the contribution process more bite-sized. A full-fledged Mario fan game with 8 worlds and multiple playable characters built from scratch might be a bit much, but a WarioWare collab or level design contest with pre-built engines might be more manageable.
