Mario's Keytastrophe: Rebirth Edition






“Mario’s Keytastrophe: Rebirth Edition” is not a remake of the original Mario’s Keytastrophe from 2007, but rather a completely new game that acts as a (finished!) spiritual successor to the original. The goal was to take the concept that KT was inspired by - that is, single-screen key-to-keyhole puzzles - and create a hack using that as the entire foundation. I think that the style I’ve chosen here more accurately reflects modern design standards, so I’m hoping people will enjoy it. I have also tried to make it speedrunner-friendly by including a timer on the map, as well as multiple paths for both 100% completionists and people who just want to find the quickest route to the end.
Special thanks to Koopster for the lovely overworld on such short notice, and to Medic for the timer code.

OTHER NOTES:
-Pressing L + R at the same time can reset a level. This is explained in-game, but I think it's an important thing to reiterate here.
-You can Start + Select out of any level at any time.
-There is no lives system, so you are free to die unlimited times, if you so desire.
-There are a few "bonus levels" which will add to the exit counter. These don't lead anywhere, but they will provide you with unique and devious challenges.
-There are 36 exits to find in total.
Thanks for checking out this hack. I hope you enjoy it!
