Bounce Tales 64

[AloXado320]

Hello everyone, I present you my first hack: Bounce Tales 64
This is a 2D hack that allows you to play the all the levels from the original java game. However, the boss levels will be in 3D, for obvious reasons.

Hack is released! Trailer + Download:

Here's a detail of what this hack will offer so far:

• A rearranged HUD.
  
• Changed color coins, yellow coins are now beige, red coins are now pink, blue coins are aqua (these variants are in the original java game, but unused).
  
• Also the coins are eggs.
  
• All the levels (12) will have 3 stars per level (2 stars + 4 red (pink) coins (eggs) star).
  
• The Bonus levels (3) will have only 1 star (30 (pink) coins (eggs) star). 
  

This hack is in a very early stage. Here are some screenshots:

HUD 1

Chapter 1
Differences: Fixed textures, level optimized, (0xFC) command fixed (basically no more black textures).

Chapter 2
Differences: Same as the Chapter 1, but the water part was added (like the original).

Chapter 3
Differences: Same as the Chapter 1.

Chapter 4
Differences: Same as the Chapter 1, but now the level mostly has water (like in the original). The quicksand and lava shown in F3 was just for a test.

I'll make progress of the hack when i have free time, so progress might be slow. Also the hack will be finished when July is over.

To-do list:
- Change Mario sounds. (Done)
- Change Mario to a Ball (Bounce) (Done)
- Replace some vanilla textures I will use (Mostly Done)
- Finish the stages (duh) (Level's 5/12 done) (Bonus Levels 1/3)
- Add the music from the original game (they are midis, so it will be somewhat easy) (4/6 done)
- Fix some textures. (Done)
- Create a Hub (2/3 done)
- GildeN64 & Console Compatibility (Fully Done). I don't have a N64, so i used cen64 on the first tests.

EDIT: I asked first David to test my hack on console to see if it works, normally it get's stuck after the Mario Screen (on cen64, it goes past that for some reason). However, using sm64compress makes it work:

Also, a Beta Gameplay of a more updated version of the hack, this time with Title Screen and Mario modifed working on console.
Thanks for Marionova for testing!

Haven't played Bounce Tales, or heard of it until now for that matter, but this looks pretty good.
Time to look into the original game, I guess.

I really like this hack! It's very well done and is overall very cool. I saw it in Kaze's E3 video when it first came out and got excited for it. I played through it today and got pretty far. I like how you changed the main text font.

You should probably add this hack to this site's Wiki for "List of Console Compatible SM64 Hacks", cus right now only Missing Stars 2.0 is on there right now.

As well as maybe Waluigis Taco Stand cus I've seen videos of that working on console too!
