Making a family friendly videogame for fun!

Has anyone here ever played Paper Mario 64? So, I’m making a sequel to that game. My pending title for the game is called “Paper Mario: The Star Princess.” Here’s a brief synopsis of what my game is about:

This is the Spiritual successor to Paper Mario 64. After Princess Peach celebrated her birthday at her castle, she and the Star Spirit ElderStar started making their way back to Star Haven. However enemies started to appear on the road to Star Haven, but with the help of ElderStar, Princess Peach is able to defeat them all. But then they meet up with the mysterious Sorcerous Jaydes, who stole the Star Rod from Star Haven, they immediately go into battle.

Unfortunately, Jaydes wins the battle. Elderstar flees from Jaydes, and Jaydes kidnaps Princess Peach. Now it’s up to Mario and the Star Spirits to reclaim the Star Rod and defeat the evil Jaydes. This time, you get to play as 2 separate parties, Mario and Princess Peach. With Mario, you get the Star Spirits as partners. Each Star Spirit has unique movesets and take on a vital role in helping Mario.

You also get to play as Princess Peach. Princess Peach is no longer the damsel in distress, she’s decided to take matters into her own hands. Princess Peach becomes friends with certain enemies in an attempt to figure out Jaydes weakness and exploit it. Each partner of Princess Peach’s has their own unique moveset, and Peach works diligently to help Mario out while trying to stop her captor Jaydes from making more bad wishes with the Star Rod.

Will Mario, the Star Spirits, Peach, and her partners, will they succeed? One can only hope in Paper Mario: The Star Princess.

I have not played that version of Mario. I did not realize that you are a video game developer! My cousin went to school for it, but has been unable to find a job doing it in this area of the country. My Wife’s cousin, however, moved to California and does have a good job coding video games.

I recently listened to an episode of “Betrayal” where the young man (who was a victim of betrayal by a girl he met on Craigslist) actually got hired by Nintendo!

Fun Fact: When we play Mario Party, I almost always choose Daisy, but before they introduced Daisy, I would choose Princess Peach : )

Daisy did not appear in the first two Mario Party games.

The first time I met my Wife’s Parents they were gathered around a small television in the Kitchen eating tacos and playing “Mario Party 2” on the Nintendo 64! They had rented it from the local video store. What a great memory! Thanks : )

You should play Paper Mario 64 Cade, I think you’d like it. It’s not like a normal Mario game, it’s an RPG. If you ever played “Super Mario: Legend of the Seven Stars” (which came out for the Super Nintendo), it’s similar to that. Look it up Cade, I think you’d like to play it. If you have a Nintendo Switch (or Switch 2), they actually have this game available via Virtual Console. It’s Paper Mario 64. It’s a really good game. You should play that, you should also play Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (which is available on the Switch, not sure on the Switch 2, but I think the Switch 2 is backwards compatible (in other words, Switch games should work on the Switch 2)). But, play those 2 games and then play my game. My game is basically a continuation of Paper Mario 64 and occurs between Paper Mario 64 and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. You’ll see how my video game coincides with both games.

But yeah…Paper Mario 64 is my favorite video game, cause at the beginning the villain wins. It’s pretty cool.
