Name: This is a Good Hack to Play if You Just Started Playing Kaizo... World
Authors: BabaYegha, LouisDoucet, Magmatic, StayAtHomeStegosaurus, Sweetdude, gui

Demo: No
Hall of Fame: No
Length: 26 exit(s)
Type: Kaizo: Beginner
Description: This is a little kaizo collab hack that was intended as an easier hack around the same difficulty as most other starter hacks so that newer players getting into kaizo can learn and get more skilled.

The game features a small difficulty curve with level slowly ramping up in difficulty while staying within a newer player's ability.

If you end up struggling or getting stuck at some point, there are 2 secret exits which lead to harder optional levels. Upon completing the optional levels, you will unlock a shortcut on the overworld allowing you to skip a few levels and get closer to final castle, this is to give the player an alternative if they feel like they need one while also letting them feel like they earned it.

most levels are pretty short with checkpoints being common so that no level overstays its welcome.

Overworld by Magmatic and Sweetdude

Playtesters: quietmason, Magmatic, Sweetdude, Babayegha, LouisDoucet and an Anonymous playtester.

This hack was made and finalized in a little less than a week
as a project to test our creating skills under the pressure of a very short deadline.

Made on the RHR baserom, with purely vanilla gameplay and custom graphics and music.

Absolutely loved it, this rom hack is my first kaizo experience and I really enjoyed it.
It explains a lot of beginner kaizo tricks and as an actual beginner to kaizo I have to say that I really did feel like this was designed for beginners, 5 stars from me! :D

Loved it 5 stars. although there was a few spots where id expect a real "beginner" to get stuck. the level in your picture set #7 in particular.

I am very new to playing kaizo. This hack is really fun and friendly to newer kaizo players. Some spots were challenging but the setups are mostly very clear and feel good to overcome. It is really cool that this group of creators made this hack within a week!

I really enjoyed playing this hack; for a beginner kaizo player like me it is not too difficult but challenging enough.
Also for a hack made in a week this is really a great result. Although you get what you can expect from this collab hack; the polish and the difficulty can be a little incoherent. I appreciate that the hack ends with the most polished and coherent levels.

You can re-enter to beaten castles and fortresses by pressing L+R. Not sure if you meant that you "have to" play the full hack again to get that particular secret exit but I got that impression.
Brownietown Link
That was so much fun. The only thing that I didn't love was the fact that I couldn't go back and get the secret exit in the castle after beating it normally. Had a blast playing it.

For a hack made in a week this is a miracle.
The overworld is the best I've seen since the Team Shell Hack.
The levels are hit and miss though.
The 2nd level especially hurt my eyes to look at. Also some of the music was very bland, especially 'the saints go marching in'.
The sewer dolphin level on the other hand looks gorgeous.
Gameplay-wise I didn't enjoy most of the early levels. They taught mechanics, but didn't feel fun. Other levels were really good though.
The final level was brilliant! I hadn't seen the koopa kids used like that.

I enjoyed playing through this hack, it introduced me to creators that may have otherwise slid under my radar. Magmatic and Sweetdude being the standouts for me. It was very easy at the beginning and got steadily more difficult but still remained fairly easy as far as kaizo goes. Good job guys!
marksands Link
I had a lot of fun with this hack as a beginner kaizo player. I even learned some new mechanics thanks to the text overlays and message boxes. I'd definitely recommend this to new players wanting to advance their skills. The difficulty was a little sporadic at times but nothing too unforgiving. 7/10

I used a Boo Block to get up to the gap and tried jumping up to see if there was a hidden pipe...Boo Block followed me up and I was stuck, lol.
oops, we didn't think anyone would try get up there lol my bad. thanks for letting us know #tb{^V^}

good
MellowYouth Link
had a blast playing thru this hack!

as of now, i would say this is a standout hack of 2021 for me.

the variety of the level design, each stage being made by a different creator, made each level refreshing and not "more of the same". cant say enough good things about this hack, and i hope to see more of these beginner friendly collab hacks. seriously

short and sweet.
well done, yall!

how the fuck I'm gonna put the name of this hack in my stream overlay. Nah, jk. Great work folks, I enjoyed this hack. The silly long name fulfill its premise.
Skydda Link
I loved it! Nice text boxes with tutorials on how to do some glitches and flying tricks, more kaizo hacks like this please #smw{:TUP:}

for feedback purposes so we can improve, i'd like to know what parts you thought weren't as good. maybe we can avoid those pitfalls in future hacks #tb{:)}

Difficulty curve was essentially non-existent, for my skill-set at least. There would be late levels I would finish within 5 tries, early levels that would take nearly 10 minutes. I get that it's a collab hack and all, but I don't think I personally would have chosen the difficulty curve as one of this hacks strong suits lol
thiaguintx Link
any smilers, buggy? how to pass the yoshi part how to use goomba to activate the block and spit out the hoof and still get the feather?
idealiter Link
Well done, guys. That's a nice beginner-friendly hack. #tb{:]}
