A Super Mario ROM Hack aggregator/archive thing
Super "Sonic Saves the World" World
This hack came out a while ago now through organic sharing, but it felt like time to give it a proper release & archiving.
There’s a lot to unpack in this huge, rambling, brutal epic of a kaizo hack. Love it or hate it, it certainly is exactly what it is.
Good luck saving the “World” :) if you have a favourite level put it in the comments plz

'---'
It is with a conflicted heart
that I release this work unto the world
I have no illusions that it will be received with jubilation
or indeed with any measurable response at all
May it float calmly out to sea,
bobbing on the surface,
unobtrusive but present,
invisible to the untrained eye
Until one day,
it silently vanishes
betwixt the waves
It lives on in memory
briefly
until those too fade
or succumb to oblivion
Fitting for an obscure artifact
with no reason for being
as are we all

-> Super "Sonic Saves the World" World is Super Mario World ROM-hack
-> In order to play it, you must obtain an NTSC Super Mario World ROM and patch it with the .bps file included in this archive
-> You can apply the .bps patch using a program called Flips
-> Flips is downloadable here: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=11474

|| ~ Am I Allowed to Use Save States? ~ |
||| |
||| "Allowed?" I'm not the boss of you. |
||| You should play this game in whatever way makes it most pleasurable for you. |
||| Save states, rewind, slow mo... whatever. |
||| Some people prefer to use these kinds of features... |
||| ...while other, sicker, individuals will prefer the raw experience. |
||| Both are fine. Who cares. |
||| No one can tell you that your experience was invalid, you idiot. |

-> You can press Start then Select to exit any level and return to the overworld
-> The game is saved whenever you return to the overworld, either by using the above trick or by completing a level
-> Checkpoints are saved! So you can jump around between levels or even turn off your system (from the overworld) without losing any progress
-> There are no secret exits! Secrets are for cowards

_// \\_ ------------------------------
(__) (__)
-> In the real world, levels don't adhere to traditional kaizo paradigms of "length" or "reasonableness"
-> To assist you in making sense of your new reality, levels are assigned a length rating on the overworld
-> Use this information as you will
1 star = Short & Snappy
2 stars = Reasonably Brisk
3 stars = The Middle One
4 stars = Quite long
5 stars = A Sprawling Epic

ASM Library
I took the time to extricate and document some of the ASM I wrote or modified for this hack
I just picked some that I thought people might like to use
So yeah... go nuts
Oh, but I don't think any the code will work in SA-1
