"Alex Kidd - Radaxian Rumble" para Master System

Vaya pintaza... y algunas de las nuevas trampas parecen muy bien diseñadas

Eso sí, la nueva versión de la música todavía no sé si me gusta...

La música a mí no me termina de encajar. Eso sí, el juego pinta muy bien.

No tengo claro que sea la música del juego, en los últimos segundos sí que parece escucharse el sonido real

Vaya pintaza! No lo conocía, gracias por compartir.

El remix de la música, lo he escuchado antes, igual no es parte del juego y lo usan como promoción.

Yo la música, sinceramente, cuanto más se parezca a la original, mejor... no me interesa que emulen orquestaciones ni nada parecido. A veces menos es más

Las músicas del vídeo son remixes hechos por fans. La del juego no sé como será puesto que ni me lo he bajado, pero desde luego no va a sonar como los remixes del video . A mi no me ha gustado nada lo que he visto. Hay muchos objetos fuera de lugar y las paletas de color, a mi forma de ver, dan verdadera pena. Puede que tenga algún aspecto interesante, pero no lo parece

Hello everyone/hola a todos,

Thanks for showing interest in the hack, I'm the one making it (with a lot of help from Calindro, creator of KiddEd ).
I can answer any questions you have in english.

Going by google translate, it seemed some of you were confused about the music. In the YT vid I just used some stuff from OCRemix, it's not mine and it's not from the game itself. The game will feature some tracks from other SMS games and possibly some new material as well, the goal is to have one new track per level/area. Maybe in the future there will even be an FM version of the music and sfx using the Japanese sound chip.

As for things looking out of place, there will be more background and sprite edits later on for better visual variety and consistency. Keep in mind that the YT video is not a correct depiction of the colors, it was made quickly with WMM just to have something to show at sega8bit and romhacking.net and there's an annoying blue tint to everything in it.

Hope you'll enjoy the hack!

Edit: Here are some preview shots for the next version of the demo:

Good job!

Hi! Thanks for your job.

About the music, I think it is important that it preserves the original spirit of the game/ era. It would be great that each level has its own music, but don´t forget to add original Alex Kidd music in at least one level. For me, last level with original music may be the best option. A nostalgic final chant, you know lol. There, it could fit better if you add some arrangements to the music; but again, respecting original feeling as much as possible. I think the re-mix that you added to this demo doesn´t respect that feeling.

I've added the tileset for the Alex kidd sprite to the image gallery on the project site (it's done except for the Janken animation), so you can download and insert it with KiddEd into the original AKIMW game right now if you like. You'll have to edit the palettes and some sprite positions for it to look like it should though.

Currently there are a few new tracks (from other SMS games) but the castle, janken and ending themes are the same. All the music is still 8-bit PSG music, since this is a rom hack and not a new game made from scratch.
I'd like to use the main theme (either original or a remix) at some point in the game, and have a unique track for each level/area, but I'm limited to having as many tracks as in the original right now.

By the way, does anyone remember Golvellius? A side thing I made the other day was to insert Kelesis's sprite into AKIMW:

If there is interest, there will be a character select screen where you can pick between 3-4 different character sprites. For example: Alex Kidd, Wonder Boy, Kelesis, Asterix. Go ahead and request one if you like, but keep in mind it has to be a character that fits with the mechanics and sprite sizes.
