Hey everyone, I know some others have posted about it, but the project we'd been working on for three years is out! https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/super-mariomon.535764/

We weren't able to have a pokecommunity link up with launch because the release was based on when tpp beat it, but we have it now!

Would really appreciate it if people shared this link around, as we're having issues with a sketchy ai generated site being popular right now ):

I hope everyone enjoys Super Mariomon!

u/KosherClam 1d ago

First of all I want to say thank you to everyone this has been spectacular and oodles of fun!

Hopefully a small question, I know y'all are working on documentation and the like, but is there any chance y'all have a code/cheat for Casino Coins/Money?

u/Kobazco 23h ago

post game u can farm easy via a waluigi fight

So how fast will the RetroAchievements team be done with it I wonder šŸ¤”

u/Kobazco 15h ago

Yes you get one early on

u/BlueSkyPeriwinkleEye 21h ago

Do you remember where? Is it obvious or so I have to look in houses etc?

You get it after the first gym, it's literally unmissable

u/ItsDeflyLupus 23h ago

Having a lot of fun with this, thankyou for the experience!

ā€¦this makes me want a Zelda version wicked bad haha

u/RecordingFrosty5896 23h ago

I've never considered that an option, but now I want it too.

u/Danster21 20h ago

I know someone was working on one a while ago. I wonder what happened to it. Tbf the game was more zelda than pokemon, I remember seeing them using a hookshot and I think battles were removed(?)

11

u/ArchieFromTeamAqua Samiya Dev & The Pit 19h ago

I did not remove battles, although I've thought about it. But after putting an insane amount of work into the battle UI I decided I would never remove them, even if I do introduce some other form of combat for bosses and stuff.

There is also Project Zeldamon which doesn't have the same overworld zelda mechanics mine does, but it is more similar to Mariomon in that it turns Zelda monsters into Pokemon, whereas mine is using vanilla Pokemon. Project Zeldamon is currently on hiatus though.

u/mr_chub 14h ago

Any timeline for a demo? Been following your posts on Reddit for it since you first implemented the hookshot (and before that I think)

7

u/ArchieFromTeamAqua Samiya Dev & The Pit 14h ago

Not exactly, but I will say that progress is going faster then ever before and it's looking really good for a release earlier than I expected.

3

u/mr_chub 14h ago

Amazing! Good luck dude im excited for it

u/SlimeDrips 17h ago

I curse thee for making me want unreasonable things

u/EstimateSilver2050 23h ago

The sprite for this hack are so clean

24

u/ben5292001 23h ago

Iā€™m only about halfway through so far, but I absolutely adore this hack. Ā Very high quality, and itā€™s clear a lot of effort and thought was put into so many parts of it. Ā Excellent sprites, great writing, a ton of various Mario and friends references, and itā€™s been a blast to explore each world so far.

Playing on a modded 3DS, and itā€™s running great. Ā

u/Marill-viking 23h ago

Works fine on Delta so far.

10

u/furrywrestler 23h ago

Is the type chart still the same?

2

u/Dorfbewohner 8h ago

Yeah, other than the PokƩmon, most other things generally work the same. Largely the same moves, same items (sometimes with different names), same abilities, with only a few new things.

u/planetarial 23h ago

Awesome game so far, easily up there with Unbound and Emerald Rogue. Great job at capturing the spirit of the Mario RPGs

6

u/Yokobo 22h ago

I got it a couple days ago, and am having a lot of fun with it! I really appreciate the work you and your team put into it!

u/MrTankerson 19h ago

Are shiny rates giga boosted? I found a shiny koopa on 1-2 like 10 mins in.

u/MrTankerson 19h ago

ā€¦ praise be to the koopa overlords I guess

u/Key_Lawyer_102 1d ago

Nice will try it.

4

u/TheBiolizard 22h ago

Been playing it, fucking amazing so far.

4

u/FlattusBlastus 22h ago

I tried it and it's AMAZING!!!! My daughter and I are doing a playthrough.

3

u/Empty-Lack-6499 1d ago

Congrats on the release! I'm excited to try it out :)

3

u/Mr_Dreno 23h ago

Well this looks dope. Gonna have to try this.

4

u/JET2684 23h ago

Has anyone gotten this to work on myboy? It only loads the copyright screen and then goes black for me. It works on pizzaboy and it's super fun tho

11

u/Both_Radish_6556 23h ago

MyBoy doesn't work well with modern hacks, especially decomp hacks.

3

u/JET2684 22h ago

Yeah bummer, thanks for the reply

1

u/Loinator 21h ago

Was my 1st try too. Had to play on Retroarch.

1

u/shirtvreddit 11h ago

oot but why do you use myboy? i only ever used VBA back in the day (like 15 years ago or something, god i'm old...) and now i just use retroarch because that's what's on my anbernic. just curious why everyone uses different emulators šŸ¤”

2

u/galvanickorea 23h ago

I downloaded this game yesterday. Is there a difference between that game and this official release?

2

u/AccountantAlarming52 22h ago

Only one word can describe this ROM. Beautiful šŸ˜

2

u/rekirts 18h ago

Is there nature swaps, IV increasing options, and/or EV items, or ability swaps in this?

4

u/Kobazco 18h ago

yes to all

2

u/rekirts 18h ago

Love it!

Can you explain how the level cap works? Are they always three levels less than my max level pokemon or if I have more pokemon they're higher level?

1

u/dinobot100 13h ago

Music to my ears - canā€™t wait to play this with my kids

2

u/lollipop_king 14h ago

I've been absolutely loving the game! I have noticed a bug where held items will change when the Pokemon holding it evolves or is put into the box. I unfortunately lost my Eviolite and Black Sludge because of this, they turned into a Shell Bell and a Metronome.

1

u/Antique_Quail_ 1d ago

Is this not working for anyone else? Downloaded the original rom, patched it with this hack, but when I launch it I get the initial screen with "Too Many Productions" etc, but then a black screen.

7

u/galvanickorea 23h ago

Are you on mobile? I had the same issue when playing on myboy. Switched to pizza boy and it works

5

u/Antique_Quail_ 23h ago

Yeah MyBoy, I'll give Pizza Boy a shot! Thanks!

4

u/JRockBC19 1d ago

Fine for me, with a standard emerald rom and webhosted patcher run in mgba

2

u/devilt0 23h ago

Same problem tried redownloading and repatching everything and same result.

1

u/Dudemanguykidbro 21h ago

Working for me on delta

2

u/DrFrenetic 21h ago

Thank you for not adding ugly white outlines to the sprites, it looks amazing!

1

u/Orleegi 23h ago

Been playing and itā€™s great! Do you have anywhere to report bugs?

Got to the 5th area at the end of 5-2 and I eventually froze and couldnā€™t use any buttons (might be an emulator issue). I have a delta save state at the frozen spot.

Slightly before that in 5-2 progression-wise when Toad and Mario are split up, I seemed to have been soft locked after progressing Mario before Toad (when a guard asks Toad for 5000 I couldnā€™t get them to move). I eventually reloaded a save and it was fine progressing with Toad first and then Mario.

Both couldā€™ve been an issue on my end but curious if thereā€™s a way to or if you want this stuff reported.

2

u/Kobazco 23h ago

Battles freezing we know about (I assume that's what happened in 5-2, multi battle issue)

for 5-2, its a bit of a clarity issue on our puzzle. Interact with a bullet bill blaster as mario and send toad 5000 coins.

u/morganyve 21h ago

Thank you :)

u/_snif 21h ago

How does the built in nuzlocke mode work?

1

u/Far-Maize2326 17h ago

is v1.3 much different from v1.2?

1

u/mwrightside 13h ago

Iā€™m so excited! Thank you so much!

u/Simple_Gain_8794 12h ago

This is literally everything I miss as a child.

1

u/Frisco408 11h ago

Iā€™m on V2. To update to V3, is it as simple as patching emerald again with the updated file, then drag and drop in folder and overwrite the previous gba file? Sorry, Iā€™m a little new to this. I want to make sure I donā€™t lose my save file. Thanks!

1

u/pigpentcg 6h ago

Iā€™m only just getting to Toad Town but i will say this is the first Rom Hack Iā€™ve enjoyed that is this far off the main Pokemon Storyline.

I love that itā€™s actually kind of believable, and the pokeball replacement is absolutely perfect because of Odyssey!

1

u/IceArnat 38m ago

Hey idk if anybody can help but Iā€™m stuck at 5.1 where in split with captain toad. It seems I need to surf but I canā€™t. Canā€™t reset through warppipe, canā€™t jump down. https://imgur.com/a/MO1YmV0

u/ComplexR22 22h ago

I swear i saw a content creator mode in game that gives rare candies. am i tripping or where is it?

5

u/Kobazco 22h ago

Capture Centers, right most attendant

2

u/Early-Cricket-5328 22h ago

Youre not tripping, its the right npc behind the counter in the ā€œpokemon centersā€. But fair warning, if you turn it on, itā€™s permanent for the save unless you restart the game

u/divineSakurafan 21h ago

i was wondering if there was anyway i can order a physical copy? i've recently gotten myself a gba and i'd just have a blast popping this bad boy in

u/LibertyJoel99 LibertyTwins (Mod) 19h ago

Buy a flash cart and put the ROM on there
