Description I already had this idea in a sketch so I decided to finish it. The idea behind this concept is to have a power up that it's not actually a power up but a trap set by Bowser inside a block. The cursed Mushroom would turn Mario or any other other character into a living Bomb!...however this form has some attacks too and it can be used for good by a experienced player.

I tried to merge elements from a Bob-omb with Mario to make it look like the character is cursed and not using a power up, so I removed the mouth, added the wind-up key in his back and changed the blue eyes of Mario for the slim soul-less eyes of a bob-bomb to make him look more robotic...so he looks like he can't communicate correctly in this form.

Part of this idea came from a comment by franciscoJjJjJ...so thanks.

Goomba: Hey why are there bombs around the castle.
Koopa: I Think Mario set those up. And he set one off.
Bowser: WHAT THE F**K!!!!!!
BOOM!

Cool! I like how you made it so it killed the people around him so it had a little variety as opposed to having the same effect as no power up at all

I love this idea so MUCH! It's creative, strategic, stylistically pleasing--it's got everything going for it. This needs to happen in a Mario game!
Excellent work, from conception to illustration.

Does the explosion harm enemies because then if this guy makes it to the boss, one guy can ignite him, BOOM, then boss is won. Brilliance

I saw the Cursed Bob-Omb power up somewhere in a sheet of custom Mario items. I faved it, but now it's missing.

Good work on that.

lol don't worry about it, I don't mind discussing or criticizing about the pic... in the best of cases it shows that the person actually cares about the drawing.
This is just a fun idea with no intention of being serious. I only added the description to complete the whole idea. It always can change.

but the fuse lights up only when hit by an
enemy sound good

well that would defeat the purpose of actually being a bomb, the point of this is that Mario becomes a living trap when he blows up, he takes some of his friends with him.

I'm not, I was simply refuting your idea that's all...you don't have to take it as an attack because someone objects to the idea, there's plenty to go around, remember that this concept was suggested by a another deviant

that afects the nearest player?

xXLightsourceXx In reply to blackyoshi46 [2010-08-25 22:50:33 +0000 UTC]

Still in this case what I wanted to do is to have the player stuck with this form until the player loses...the fuse could be turned off but it can be ignited again at any attack working exactly like a bob-omb ( you can turn them off with an ice ball )...but you can still play with this power up if you are careful enough.

Goombas are almost useless that wouldn't work right...no, for now there's enough concept power ups. At least until a good idea pops up.

Nice... that would certainly be a hard-to-manage "power-up!" (If it were one, though, I think he'd be called Bomb Mario.)
I do think it should be vulnerable to fire, though.

xXLightsourceXx In reply to nintyalex [2010-05-02 14:23:53 +0000 UTC]

well yes, they idea is that the fire ball hits you and you still live, but it ignites the fuse and you blow up along with your friends... unless someone else turns off the fuse for you.
