Indeed! 😂

Ask and thy shall recieve

this rom hack is better than the original game

The middle green one basically takes you to a kind of credits room. The yellow pipe is indeed just for savefile C and color-changed to show that you fully beat the game on it.

The credits area for when you finished all of the game which I didn't really want to spoil right there. It's not meaningful in terms of content though, there are no stars or anything similar in there.

It stands for power because the way that stars are counted in this game is that, besides the normal star counter in the top right, there is "star power" where a star gotten in the world you are currently in counts as 1 star power in that world, and stars gotten in other worlds count as 0.5 star power. The reason Kaze implemented this concept is because that way a person doesn't just get all stars in the first few worlds and neglects the others to complete the game. It's basically a balance and incentive to play through all worlds.

As far as I know Kaze wasn't able to get the sound to work properly for Champion's Road

It basically is but it's a bit complicated. The hack was meant to have 131 stars but you can actually get 133. There are the pipes connecting all sections of the last level (Champion's Road) and it was found out that if you go back from the pipe in the world 2 section into the world 1 section, it is possible to respawn objects and coins while the coin counter is still the same, so you can farm a basically infinite amount of coins. Furthermore, each section of the level uses a different level slot of the game. This means that spawning a 100 coin star in a different section of the level actually spawns a completely different 100 coin star. Some 100 coin stars are identical to the ones that you get earlier in the game but some are unique. By spawning a 100 coin star in the world 3 section of Champion's Road, you can get a new star. The same can be done by spawning another 100 coin star in the world 8 section. I'm not sure if this is going to be fixed in upcoming versions though. Kaze said he would fix it but since the release trailer was taken down, I'm not sure it's gonna be updated at all. Either way, currently the intended 100% is 131 stars with the "real" 100% being 133 stars.

I believe you can get S, A, B, C, D and E. But I'm not sure about E, maybe D is the lowest rank

Yes you do but I suppose they are more like "bonus content".

@@FrostyZako Pretty sad

Most of it was done by a human

It's a tas though... It was done by a human but he or she put button inputs into the game to make theoretical predictions about a speedrun

@@alexanderkunitsugu774 This just seems like a segmented speedrun to me. I don't think any tools such as frame advance, slowdown, or RAM watching tabs were used. I could be wrong though.

From what I heard it is but you might need to use a ROM that was specifically modified to work on console. I'm really no expert when it comes to console compatability

No it cant

Yeah I know. A lot of the levels have been done faster by now and that one too

It's a theory TAS because it's not as optimized as a real TAS. The main intention is to show strats and routes with sufficiently flawless gameplay.

Goombas give points, as you can see in the top-left corner in the levels. And you need enough points to get good ranks, which then give you stars in the end

FrostyZako thanks!
