Description: | This originally started as part of the Carl vs. Juz troll series but turned into a massive thing of its own. A very long and unusual level with tons of custom ASM and made up almost entirely of components made from scratch by me for this hack. Featuring things like enemy stacks, working death indicators and item tracks, SMM costumes and much more. I'd probably say this is like 1/3 troll, 1/3 tech demo, and then a good helping of puzzle and... probably hot garbage. This is definitely not for everybody. Some people love it, some people hate it. I probably won't do any more troll stuff but it was an interesting experiment. |

To be more serious though: play as Luigi for some fun blue-ish version of Bowsette too bad the "need help" room doesn't get recolored too when being Luigi.
EDIT: As I got no reply, in the spirit of full disclosure, here's what I found:
Load the hack on a clean save RAM, go to the credits level, then reset.
Don't do this on your first playthrough though, as you'll miss a lot. I've accidentally hit this on my very first attempt to play it (mainly because I wanted to try out Resetti in a situation that might be unexpected), and then realized I should rather clear my save RAM and try again.
Here's a quick flex (it took me, like, over 100 to get me this alone)
Serious review: I love it. The work put into this is beyond anything I can believe and it's super creative. 5.71784925/5 stars.
(It turns out Lunar Magic isn't that much of a help)
EDIT: I got a virus after this! This "Resetti" gave me one! Now all of my Mario romhacks have him when I run a romhack in the emulator!
The only slight issues I had were a few pieces of cutoff, not counting the intentional cutoffs when you press the button and near the end. A few noteblocks had glitched bounce sprites, and the not-quite-vines (to avoid spoilers) cause some minor cutoff when they eat through background tiles. There were softlocks, but they were executed perfectly. In total, these issues are extremely minor and are not cause for rejection (although maybe an update in the future could fix the cutoff). Approved, with many thanks for an enjoyable experience all around!
5 stars.
e: i just wasnt trying hard enough
Softlocking is actually intended sometimes.
edit: i just finished the hack (or the level). it was an interesting fun and confusing journey.
its hard for me to rate this. 2 parts i still dont understand how i did them. its not the most beautiful hack thats for sure but it gave me a "wtf!? thats such a troll" moment a few times. so i guess it did a good job at that? also bowsette and
so i guess 4*
- cant wait to see more troll hacks.
i also got told to reset. does that mean the feature "restart" when you die? cause in the gif i presented, there is no way to die.nvm.especially cause that makes it easier for me to torture myself <3
edit: difficult rating is nice, i prefer it as tag
