Description from RHDN:

"A sci-fi themed hack consisting of 4 worlds with 16 levels in total. Mario has been erroneously teleported to an alien planet and needs to find his spaceship to get back home. The hack is of medium-hard difficulty and is mostly recommended to people who have already mastered the original SMB1. Some levels require you to go into the right pipe, walk through the right door, or hit the right vine to finish.

The concept for this hack dates to June 2017. Initially being nothing more than a graphical test created by Patty, it was reworked to be a proper hack starting in the Summer of 2020. In 2023 it received a massive upgrade in its music and coding, courtesy of StudsX. Most of the levels were done by Patty, with tweaks done by StudsX and Eden GT. 1-4 was designed by StudsX."

The hack looks GREAT, sounds AWESOME, and it's HARD AF! Don't let this video fool you to think that this is an easy hack to breeze. It's NOT.

It's just like the descripton above mentioned, plus some do or die moments that they forgot to mention when trying to go to the right pipe, door or vine. And NO CONTINUES! You know, the combo of A + START that you press at the title screen after you got a GAME OVER? GONE. Or maybe reworked, I don't know...

But hey, I did like the sound test menu, I kinda knew some of the tracks used here, and it helped me remember them.

So... Yeah, that's it. Thank you for reading this and watching the video.
