Mushroom Kingdom Fusion

Mushoom Kingdom Fusion is a Mario fan game project that has been in development since 2007. The game revolves around Mario, Luigi and various characters from other video game franchises traveling the multiverse to stop the fusion of worlds by a mad scientist known as the Fusionist. All characters function similarly to how they played in their games of origin and most of the levels in the game are based on different video games.

I originally discovered the game back in 2008, when I was around 14 years old and immediately fell in love. I’ve always had a love for crossovers and the sheer size of the game was impressive. Unfortunately, the scope proved to be impossible to manage by the original team and the game was cancelled back in 2013. In 2019, I discovered that a new team had picked the game back up again and had been working on it since 2018. I joined their Discord server and started engaging with the community. Over time, I managed to provide several assets to the game and eventually got to join the development team.

I’ve worked as something of a generalist on the team, helping out with various parts of the game. I’ve provided a lot of pixel art, I’ve programmed various enemies, I’ve designed a couple of levels, I’ve animated cutscenes and I even created a song remix to be used in the game. It’s been quite a surreal experience to work on the game I fell in love with all those years ago and it’s been quite a joy to help out.
