Super Mario World is a side-scrolling platform game developed and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo in 1990. When Mario goes on vacation, Princess Peach gets kidnapped and Mario must go through Dinosaur Land in order to rescue her from the evil Bowser.

This romhack was designed with accessibility in mind. The intention was to create a hack hard enough for beginners to grind, but easy enough a more skilled player could breeze through it. Each of the 7 levels has it's own unique theme, and the difficulty curves with progression.

Level 1) RETRO GRAVY
-inspired by and designed to look like a level in a Gameboy game
-carefully selected shades of green to avoid foreground/background blending

Level 2) CHECKPOINT CITY
-coined phrase in the Mario Maker community felt would make a cool level concept
-literally a city of checkpoints used as decoration - not one functions as a real checkpoint!!

Level 3) THE DANGER ZONE
-the first level of the hack designed in Lunar Magic!
-redesign of a 20 second speedrun level created in Mario Maker 2

Level 4) CHEDDAR BELIEVE IT
-went with shades of yellow and orange to create a 'cheesy' tone
-slightly more precise level design than the previous 3

Level 5) THE CLOT THICKENS
-this level is designed to feel as though it takes place in the body
-shades of red and white used to support the level concept

Level 6) BELLY OF THE BEAST
-underwater level designed as a nod to the DAM level in the NES version of TMNT
-pink weeds damage the player, some paths are intentionally tight

Level 7) NONE SHELL PASS
-vertical tower ascension
-general theme is a black fortress with red accents

This romhack was designed with passion and determination - Thank you for playing!
-Dedicated to the Loving Memory of Noah James
