Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic: Difference between revisions

The ''Doki Doki Panic'' engine started as a ''Mario''-style tech demo using vertical-scrolling mechanics as opposed to side-scrolling mechanics.<ref>Kohler, Chris (April 1, 2011). [https://www.wired.com/2011/04/super-mario-bros-2/ The Secret History of Super Mario Bros. 2]. ''Wired''. Retrieved July 25, 2015.</ref> [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] suggested the inclusion of side-scrolling mechanics to make it more of a ''Mario'' concept. Nintendo entered a licensing deal with Fuji Television, and the game's development proceeded with ''Yume Kōjō'' characters. Shigeru Miyamoto, as a result, was more involved with the development of ''Doki Doki Panic'' than he was in what eventually became the [[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|original ''Super Mario Bros. 2'']]. Many of the game's enemies have become generic ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' enemies, though many were not intended to be that at the time of their creation. This includes [[Shy Guy|Shyguy]]s, [[Birdo]]s, [[Pokey]]s, [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]]s, and numerous others. Of particular note is how [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad]], and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]'s skills and attacks have been shaped by the skills of the characters they replaced.
