Remaking Donkey Kong Country!

In this topic I am going to be trying to make a playable remake of DKC in makecode arcade, but I can’t do it without your help.
If you aren’t familiar with DKC, look up some pictures of it and maybe watch a video
donkey-kong-country-snes
What makes it special is that the sprites are converted 3d renders, instead of pixel art, so I want to do the same thing.

Also, This doesn’t necessarily have to be Donkey kong, if everyone wants to, it could be a Donkey Kong country knockoff with our own characters.

yes!!

But do we have any part of the game?

Here is the first version of the game, so far I only have the walking animation, some physics, and a half of a small level.

I think I might need some help with the slopes though.

Those who are designing levels or converting images, It would be cool if you could make some tiles(8x8) for the plants in the background.


Try to use the color pallete I used in the V0.1 version, or design your own.(keep in mind DK needs 3 browns, but the darkest one can also be black)

is this still happening

Not really. I’m waiting till I can work on my slope engine, and that will probably happen after coder king 2.

Hey I know this topic has been down for two years but I really like this idea and I wanna help, what happened?

I couldn’t figure out how to make slopes work and I lost motivation so I never finished it.

I could take over if its ok with you

It reminds me of Super Mario RPG.

I see the resemblence. Would be a cool idea for someone to use that in an RPG.

Super Mario RPG:
Makecode Mania

Only issue is deep down the code is still 2D, I can’t figure out how to add walls or plains on the sides.
