Mario Evolution Project

This project was the final Major project for the National Diploma in multimedia course which I completed in 2005. The project brief was simply to create a project with the theme of Evoultion and apart from that we were given free rein on what we could do. (my favorite type of brief :P) I Decided (being the gaming nerd that I am) to do the evolution of Mario.

The graphics was created in Photoshop which involved a hell of a lot of cutting up of sprites sheets to create the map and walking animations as well as each individual games header image. These sprites were then taken into Flash and the project was slowly created by animating each route from each point and mapping them to the correct D-Pad direction. It was alot of work and used some basic Action Script to load various movies but is still one of my favorite projects.
