Sunset Shore (DK Country Returns) Discussion: A new meaning to the term "Shadow Boxing"

A stage with a visual flair! Sunset Shore from Donkey Kong Country Returns!





The platforms on stilts tilt back and forth depending on where you are. While they will never fall from their stilts, if they tilt too far you will slide right off; and this includes when you're hanging onto the edge

Also, all characters become silhouettes in this stage just like in the source game, though I also imagine there being an option to go into this stage with no silhouettes for a more even playing ground

This would be pretty awesome, I'll be honest.

Any shiloutes I can think of, 

Crash: His pants

That there is really awesome. I question the feasibility of the colored portions, but it would be great for sure.

Granted, I don't know much about what engine you guys use to create Crusade, but I imagine it would work as a 'hidden' color palette that gets switched on once players enter Sunset Shore. Though granted, that would probably require all characters to have palette swaps and not tints like Sonic and Pacman; and I know you guys have more pressing concerns

The big concern is that it would really require 8 new palettes per character, which is a lot of work. Doable, but work. As for characters with no true palette support, I'd think they'd just be totally black as a temporary fix until we get to a point where all characters have true palettes.

I'm a big fan of the idea, myself. If it were to get in, the palettes would make for a good community project if anything.

Making it a community project is a FANTASTIC idea

Also I took MonadoBoy's idea and saw how Crash looked with the pants highlighted, and I got a little carried away and cooked up a few more

Oh, whoops. My bad. Fixed

I think it'll be better if porky himself was shaded instead of the machine. Other than that, nice concept.
