Mario & Luigi DOS Remake

Second version of my first Super Mario World Hack.

This hack is an effort to accurately re-create Mike Wiering’s “Mario and Luigi” computer game for DOS operating systems, released in 1994. The reason this hack was made was to provide a much easier way to play the game, as it suffered from sloppy controls. This remake is based on the six level version available for download on various sites.

Differences from first version

• Revamped title screen.
• Minor palette changes.
• Goombas can no longer be picked up after being stomped on.
• Flashing yellow on pipes removed.
• Changed note block bounce sprite. (however, the color brightens a bit when you hit them)
• Increased difficulty for reaching second level’s secret area.
• Changed areas for third/sixth level’s ending to fix the fade to black problem.
• Last level (with Bowser boss battle) replaced with a single room with 4 ? blocks and two message blocks that reveal the staff credits, instead of an actual ending.
