Master of Shell

After I received a lot of positive feedback I decided to upload this here!

There are 2 paths: master and novice. The master route is the standard mode while the novice route consists of easier versions of the same 6 levels (heavily nerfed). The novice path requires a lot less jump control and doesn’t force the harder tricks and inputs. It is doable even by less experienced marios and could also be a good preparation for the master path.

The master path is the main game and is rather tricky. The special world can only be found by a true master.

While you can get 16 exits in total, 9 can be considered 100% (master path + special world).

Like every shell hack this is inspired by sheffy 2. Another big inspiration for me was Various Dragons.

Special thanks to DJLocks for making a cool TAS (but without the S): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFZ5f7QZSzA

Thanks to Katun and GlitchCat for playing this and showing me some breaks.

My own clear video showing intended strats can be found here in case you get stuck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8XanGGIcVg Special: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppqmNMjyLlk

Note that these videos don’t show everything that is in this version. But they should be sufficient.

Edit: For the last trick in the castle on master mode you need to do what DJ did. Just shell jumping does not work anymore.
