The 2nd Old-School Level Design Contest: Collaboration Hack

Released: November 4, 2022

By: SMW Central

Found on: smwc

Difficulty: 7.5

This is the collaboration hack of SMWCentral’s 2nd Old School Level Design Contest from 2021. With 121 entries and 4 switch palaces totaling at 150 exits, this is the second longest SMW romhack to date.

The compilation was kept as vanilla as possible to keep with the “SMW-like” feeling. Some exceptions were made however, such as on the overworld and markers for exits, dragon coins, and moons. Despite this, for 100% completion you will only need to get all the exits. Additionally, pressing start anywhere on the overworld will warp you back to Yoshi’s House. We hope you enjoy!

---------------------- Collaboration Hack ---------------------------------

Thank you for downloading OLDC2!
This collab was once again brought to you by Heraga, with assistance from
MarioFanGamer, DeppySlide, ASMagician Maks, Stivi, and  many others.

While you can more than likely play this hack on any emulator of hardware
configuration, please note that it has only been thoroughly tested on
SNES9x 1.60 and BSNES v115. Other configurations may not play nice right
out of the box!

Regardless, this hack was still a very big undertaking to compile, so
we hope you enjoy!

------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE!!
The level 'Rehab' was originally submitted with a midway that required 
outside powerups to obtain. Due to the nature of this compilation, this
midway was changed to allow players to obtain it normally with the permission
of the original level authors.

The level '12PTLAYERGM' was originally submitted with a broken midway that
did not work at all. Because the level is short and because the midway did not
work at all in the original submission, this midway post was removed to prevent
player confusion.
