Intro

Version: Alpha.1.2

This is a Super Mario NES edition maker coded entirely in Java. It is meant to be educational, and there will be a Youtube Series explaining how to create this at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQP4qSCj1eHMHisDDR4iPzw.

How to Play

Question Blocks

To place a custom question block, go to the Prefabs tab and select a question block, then place it in the scene.

Then to change what's inside it, click the question block located in the scene, and select the item from the popup menu.

If you select a Mushroom item, Mario will get a mushroom if he is small, and a Flower if he is big, and a Coin if he is already Fire Mario.

Pipes

To place connected pipes: Go to the prefabs section, and pick a pipe. Then place the pipe in the scene.

Next, click the bottom left corner of the pipe that you just placed, select the exit pipe you would like. Next, click the bottom left corner of the exit pipe and position it where you would like.

Red pipes indicate entrances.

Orange pipes indicate Exits.

Mario Player

To place a player into the scene, just click prefabs and place one Mario in the scene where you would like him to start. If you place more then one, the game will glitch :)

Enemies

Go to prefabs, and place enemies wherever you would like them to go. They will not begin moving until the player reaches them, so no need to worry about them walking off cliffs.
