I still think dropping a boo bomb on them is a good idea. And it's simple.

Well, yes, but if Boothany keeps using bombs the ability's getting nerfed.

I can only drop one boo-bomb atm before not having enough SP for another

Not sure about the recharge of skill points out of combat, but I doubt that'd be viable in enough time for even the fuzzies to figure out a way to attack me.

That said, sure, I could take out a good amount of them. But without a BIGGER BOOM, it's not nearly enough.

Would rather not send the game into Thermopylae mode, where FFS throws ten thousand fuzzies at us through a narrow hallway and tells us to survive twenty turns.

Can't believe I almost missed a chance to steal one of the eternal torches from the wall

Subverting nintendo logic=win.

I would have to invent several new alphabets to represent all the enemy fuzzies

@FFS: It's not like you'd have to roll anything! Just do a quick epilogue.

"You guys attack the fuzzy army...

...you die. Thousands of yelling, screaming, bloodsucking fuzzies drown over you in a black wave-though you die valiantly, it is ultimately a hopeless effort. Boogly is overjoyed, and calls up Bowser before going to burn and pillage the innocent flower people who were brave enough to try and help you. King Bowser himself laughs and laughs, taunting the princess from her cage that her favorite heroes died painfully. Then he levels a few boo-houses, just to get back at Boothany in particular, who cries and cries long into her afterafter life. Noone else will ever know exactly of your ignominious deaths, but the Mushroom Kingdom will mourn your loss and hope that perhaps stronger, more intelligent heroes will succeed where you so obviously failed...but their hopes are in vain, for Bowsers victory will be utter and complete, plunging the lands into a second dark age of scaly, fire breathing reptilian rule.

For a thousand thousand years your names will be whispered as the ones who could have stopped this calamity, but failed to even conquer the first dungeon. Your family and their descendants unto the next dozens of generations will be reviled and cursed, and your names becoming commonly synonymous with 'failure', and 'ineptitude' and a variety of painful and humiliating diseases-such as Teresa's Warts, Ochitafoot and Tankyrash.

Game over.

...

Waitlist, ready?"

[kj1225]

I not going to say that I wouldn't mind that, but...

[GreatWyrmGold]

It wouldn't be that bad.

There's waitlisting heroes, so the first group would just be an interesting historical sidenote to be turned into a historical comedy several decades down the line.

I'm now trying to think of what a Monty Python sketch in the Mario world would look like.

IT'S DUNGEON TIME

I am attempting, with this dungeon, to solve some of the qualms about the game so far.

Shoruke wanted bigger combat maps and more options in them, so I made the map a lot larger. I also jam-packed it with horrible enemies in every corner so you guys will have plenty of options for approaching them!
Dwarmin complained about his usefulness, so this is basically Bethany's time to shine (she is, after all, the only flying member of the team). Everyone else is going to have to deal with the frustrating pit mazes manually.

There's treasure to be gained, too. Just for the sake of balance, I made sure to put the best treasures behind enemies that can OHKO most of the team.

[Xanmyral]

Hm... Wonder what that face means on the floor tile between the two green fuzzies? Best not step in it, all the same, might be a trap.

Spoiler: you asked (click to show/hide)

('Zach walks into a shop, past the inexplicable mariachi band, and rings the bell on the counter. A Dayzee waddles up to the counter.

"Morning sir!"
"Morning! So, em... I was just locomoting around the quinta amidst the billibong, when I came to the sudden stunning realization that I was somewhat lacking in homicidal purveyence and simultaneously a bit wrathful."
"...Wrathful, sir?"
"Choleric."
"Eh?"
*adopts a high-pitched voice* "A pip bit ready to make off with someone's petals, if you know what I mean."
"Ah, you want to kill something!"
"In a nutshell, yes. I thought to myself, one of those pollen-bearing vegetables ought to do the trick. So, I put a stopper on my stuff-stomping stampede, and infiltrated your place of purveyance to negotiate the bartering of some empowering efflorescence." 
"Come again sir?"
'Zach puts on a flat face. "I want to buy a powerup."
"Ah, well you're in exactly the right place for that sir, this is a PowerUp Parlour, after all. What would you like?"
"A propeller suit if you please, my good man."
"I'm... afraid we're fresh out of propeller suits, sir."
"No matter, have you a Super Leaf?"
"Never at the end of the week sir, always get a fresh batch in on Monday morning."
"It's Tuesday."
"And you'd think that would mean we'd have some sir, but we're out regardless."
"Very well, do you have any Tanuki Suits?"
"Eh, no."
"1-up Mushrooms?"
"No."
"1-up Hearts?"
"No..."
"3-up moons, then?"
"Yes, those we have, sir."
"Excellent, I'll have one of those, then."
"It's, ah... a bit runny, sir."
"...Your moons have gone runny."
"Yes, sir."
"No matter, I like them runny, I'll take one.
"It's, uh... I'm quite sure it's more runny than you like it, sir."
"I don't care how bleeding runny it is good yeoman, just sell it to me in a bowl or a cup or something."
"Yes sir, I'll just oh damn the mice have gotten into it."
"..."
"..."
"...No matter, do you have a feather?"
"Sorry, sir, the birds have been keeping far away from here lately."
"Possibly for lack of anything at all here, but no matter, have you a penguin suit?"
"No..."
"Ice Flower?"
"No..."
"Fire Flower?"
"No..."
"Should have expected. Bit predictable, really. Very well, do you have... a mushroom."
"Not much call for that around here, sir."
"Not much call for-"  "It's the single most popular and common powerup in the world!"
"Not around here, sir."
"And praytell, what is the most popular powerup around here?"
  "The froggie suit, sir!"
"I see. And I don't suppose, since froggie suits are the most popular powerup around here, that you have a steady supply of them and thus have one or more in stock."
"Yyyyyno."
"I see. Do you, in fact, have any powerups here at all?"
"Why of course, sir, it is a Powerup Shop, after all."
"Okay, I'll bite. What do you have in stock. Here. At this moment, and available for sale?"
"Nothing at all sir, I've been yanking your chain this whole ti-"
Inezach vaults over the counter, using his momentum to kick the shopkeeper in the face so hard he flies backwards through the cupboard behind him and the wall behind it too, and flies laterally far enough away that he finally lands in one of the bottomless pits in a platformer stage, and freefalls for several minutes before smacking into a gaggle of geese (every single one of them) which break his fall, and upon crashing into the ground turn into Golden Eggs that hatch into fully-grown, clothed human women who each kick the shopkeeper in the face once before storming off in a huff.

*Clap, clap*

[Xanmyral]

Indeed, well done.

[Tiruin]

That was hilarious, and amazing.

Very well done.
