P-Switch Predicament!
preview
By: Vitiman
A civilization thought to be dormant... a world in chaos... only one man, a mustached man, can save the universe from itself.

That's right, Dr. Robotnik! Nope, actually, t-that was wrong oops. ACTUALLY, it's Mario! He's here to set things right! Someone has tampered with the peace of the P-Switch in their homeland of the P-Switch Peninsula (man, that's such a weird word to spell, don't you think?) and now he's gotta stop them...

...but there may be far more sinister forces working against him. Entire fangames... warped together... who could possibly be behind such a fiendish activity?!

I'll never understand the point of these "joke" games. Are they an excuse for unpolished controls that are way too slippery and sloppy charater animations?

Meh. Stopped playing past the second level due to extreme disintrest. Joke games don't automatically omit you from making it of quality.

You know, I'm not sure I get the point of joke games either. Here I am, having made them since at least 2007-ish, and I don't think I've ever sat down and actually thought about the point of it all. What does it mean? Does it have a purpose?

After giving it a lot of thought, I'm gonna have to go with a resounding "no" on that. Unless you have a sense of humour, that is.

Vitman I have few questions.....

1: Is P switch Predicament is a joke game just like turd feast series?

2: What game making software did you use with ?

Question away! :)

1. Yep! It's more subtle than most, but I still think a joke game can be a joke game without the blatant lack of quality. Not saying I put an ultra definitive amount of thought behind P-Switch Predicament's every programming nook and cranny, but I made sure it was presented in a way that made the joke work well enough.

2. I made this in MMF2, so I actually went out of my way to imitate early Hello engine physics in a completely different work environment!

I think what joke games are SUPPOSED to do is get a laugh out of people. You know, because that's the point of a joke?

I wish I could properly experience more of this game than I was able to; there is one section I just can't quite get beyond. I got by it once and then died to an easy spot and couldn't get back to it since! Curse the lack of checkpoint.

This is way off topic, but I'd love a Robotnik game as described in this game's description.

Seems a good number of people are having trouble with that spot. Best way around it is to come into the level Fire Flower-less, grab the Flower it gives you, use the temporary invincibility from grabbing it to jump past the first plant, kill the second, and then wait for the remaining plants to spit their fireballs and kill the third and move on. If you get hit during any of this, all should be well since you're as powered up as you can be!

Beyond that, just jump far enough to reach the coin trail and the rest of the level should be simple enough.

(Don't blame me for this absurd level design, you can thank Thunder Dragon for that :P)

Okay, let me discussion this about P switch....
First off I have experience overwhelming natural
levels which is pretty nice. :)

Second After the first level I went to the castle
(2nd lvl) When I got in there, I saw a background
maybe Full House or Humor stuffs. I see some Super Charisma Bros characters from the Super Charisma Bros series.


Finally I realize Vitman's P switch game is Great!
But odd..... just imagine Vitman could make a interesting levels designs with such great Adventure games details....

This is more randomly ness then I thought.

Nope! I might update this game one day and have secret passageways that would go into those levels, but for now they're empty and just there to sorta-kinda tease ya!

Hey Vitman why don't you make a squeal of p swtich!
is kind of hard and Randomness but It brings me interest back at the day of Super Mario turd feast.

(don't get distracted by Bowser or he'll steal your tacos, burritos, and other stuff./ Viewer discussion has been advised)

Just because he doesn't like it doesn't give him the right to be a jerk about it. It doesn't give you the right to either...

To help establish the unsettling tone that something isn't quite right. Its ominous feel foreshadows the plot twist and betrayal.

It's textbook setting development. Music is a core element of tone, and is only matched in this
significance by the aesthetics. This is part of how tone has always been established in audible mediums, and unless most-every human on the planet goes deaf, it always will be done this way.

Uh.....o...kay? But that still doesn't give a good reason that this music sounds like it came from Ben Drowned.

The best reason I can give (as the creator of the game, mind you) is that this is a satirical fangame and thus has some elements to it one would never expect to really see in a fangame.

The overworld music was created before I came up with the idea of "corrupting" the game gradually, but I left it in because the ominous noises worked perfectly as a gateway to the rest of the game's insanity... and also partially because I was lazy.

I just came online to check the screenshot of this game, and I noticed that you, Vitiman, WEREN'T BANNED AT ALL! Huzzaaahh! (in the voice of Toadsworth).
Speaking of Black Squirrel's tilesets, I'm surprised that they came back years later in this game. I've been playing some of Hello's games years before I joined MFGG, and I saw those tilesets. Time travelling MFGGer confirmed, I guess?

I played it. Apparently it's intended to be a parody, but I'm afraid that it's mostly just a pastiche of different fan games with hardly a joke to tell. Dudim's Skype calls are about the only funny thing in this game. I'll be writing a review.
