Images in the game could also be animated using a few other tools (an in-game walkthrough of the steps made it a snap).

Other things like 3/4 and 4/4 time, tempo, and looping could also be adjusted. Some Mario Paint compositions could actually get quite complicated. Different icons were used to represent different sound effects, like a Mario for a jumping noise or a ship for a clanking noise, which the player could place on a music staff to adjust pitch and timing. The game came with built-in icons and lettering tools to assist players with poor drawing skills.Īnother of the game's modes was a music composer. The main "mode" of Mario Paint was painting, which was done in a relatively sophisticated image editor, considering the only control was a two-button mouse. The game came with a custom mouse and mouse pad for the system, expressly for the game.

Mario Paint is a collection of creativity applications for the Super NES.
