The ULTIMATE Mario Game

You know Kosmic really likes SMB1 when he even fails to recognize some things from vanilla SMW.

25:53 the music in 7-2 is Powell from Seiken Densetsu 3 (Trials of Mana). Great game, underrated because it was unreleased in the west until the remaster just last year! Even better than Secret of Mana which is already regarded as one of the best SNES RPGs.

Level 9-2 at 36:04 is Eversion! Its and indie platformer where the premise is finding secrets to faze between "layers" of the level. Here he starts in layer 4, where the baddies stop moving, but that pipe brings him to layer 2, where its happier but you can still see the wires on the cloud props.

[Helloyousilverdevil]

It has to be the biggest compliment for an indie SMB modder to get no only recognition from Kosmic, but a whole video.

And for once, the quality of work the modder put in is so worthy of Kosmic’s playthrough

[zionfortuna]

I know this may not be the focus of the channel, but I'd really love seeing you playing more SMW hacks, Kosmic.
This has been by far the best romhack wednesday episode in a while.

If you haven't already, I would HIGHLY recommend playing Mushroom Kingdom Fusion. It's a fangame in a similar vein to this or Super Mario Brothers Crossover, but everything you could think of is dialed up to 11. In one stage you'll be jumping through the ordinary Mario grasslands, then you take a warp pipe into Metal Slug, and shortly afterward you're battling Dr. Cortex on N. Sanity Island. It is absolutely nutty.

Another very perfect transition at 11:34 that I must point out because it's very satisfying. I gotta finish this video to see if there's more.
EDIT: Found another at 17:00 and at 38:18.
22:09 That's Cold Man stage from Mega Man & Bass. Really underrated song in my opinion.

[Faux_Fox_]

“200!?” Immediately jumps off a cliff

I don’t blame you, it’s tragic

[gasparguruoftime]

A 40+ minute Romhack Wednesday is exactly what I need after a long day. The thumbnail has me excited.

[dread_trap]

1:21 the background is from sonic 1 beta version labyrinth zone
2:44 everything here(music and background) is from hill top zone from sonic 2
3:40 background and music are from sonic 3 flying battery zone (not sure, if I didn’t lie about the background)
13:23 the background is from sonic 1 (release version) labyrinth zone

[Otawizo]

Kosmic when Mario's jump height is a pixel off: Visible frustration

[quadpad_music]

If you are trying to kill Kosmic in a romhack, don't make it hard. Just make the physics ever so slightly different, he will jump and slide all over the place.

[SlaaneshiKitty]

World 6-4, looking at what you did, it seems like stepping on the brown block after hitting the ? block counts as stepping on one of the snake blocks. That's what was activating it.

[lamenwatch]

9:56
This song is SO nostalgic! I mean, it sounds weird in this rendition, but I'd recognize it a mile away.

EDIT 1A: 36:05
The background, music, and the immobile enemies are a reference to a game called Eversion.
EDIT 1B: 36:40
The reference goes deeper...

[lukedufour]

23:15 the snake block activates when you stand on the block that the mushroom comes out of (I believe).

[dragonick]

2:53 That music is Hill Top Zone from Sonic 2, which was also the source of the background, if you're wondering :)

[linguicaguy]

When I saw the thumbnail, I definitely thought it was gonna be some wild crossover that lets you play as all sorts of different characters including Goku lol

[periwinkle.]

Was NOT expecting the Ikachan theme to be in this romhack! (@ 5:28)
I thought that game was way too obscure to be in something like this, so hearing that was a pleasant surprise. :)

[Fatih_M]

36:05 this levels is a reference to an obscure indie game called "eversion", sometimes you get this excat same background and enemies can't move which is why they are frozen here
