Hack description

Teenage Super Ninja Plumbers
by Nesdraug

The sewers of The Mushroom Kingdom have been infested by teenage mutant ninja turtles. It's up to Mario and Luigi to save the day by becoming Teenage Super Ninja Plumbers!

THERE ARE TWO VERSIONS OF THIS HACK:

- Gamejam 2022 demo version:

The first version was made in one week for the SMB JAM on SMB ARENA's discord. The theme was "turtles" and most of the jam time went to make the TMNT/SMB music mashups. The gamejam version does have bugs and is to be concidered a demo version!

- Final version:

The final version was made in one month shortly after the gamejam ended. It features new levels, bugfixes, new graphics and colors + bonus levels. Two unusual features in this hack is that player 2 has a separate sprite and that bridges will be destroyed if you run on them.

Both the jam version and the finalized version are included as an example for what can be done in a week compared to a month.

Special Thanks to StudsX for creating the asm base, b0b d0e and everyone else on the SMB Arena.

Edit version 1.2:

- Updated the patches so they can be played on real hardware.
- Took care of faulty scroll lock in bonus level 5-1

Known bugs:

- Random blocks may appear while breaking a bridge.
- If you touch a flagpole while having starpower the game will sometimes not load the next level until the main music has been played for a full cycle.

Strange, but interestingdiablo6662022-10-08Version 1.3

If you look among the released, then it is strange, but interesting in implementation.

Combining "Ninja Turtles" and "Mario" is strange. However, a good Level Design, neat graphics and great music convey the atmosphere well. And really, though strange, but you can feel the effort in this hack.

Is it worth the attention? Definitely

a sequence of creativityThe Great Brazilian2022-10-04Version 1.2

NesDraug really knows how to do something new over and over again, here we have a good hack rom with fun levels, a new story, awesome sprites and songs that are really fun to listen.

Nesdraug breathes new life into the SMB1 formatOgpog2022-10-01Version 1.1

Nesdraug doesn't just make Romhacks, he creates original concepts for each Romhack, with new game dynamics and new music for everyone to enjoy, breathing new life into the SMB1 format.

I love the breakable bridges in this game and the effort he has taken in creating catchy new music.

The difficulty is fair for most players, with the opportunity to try speed running it, with your own fancy moves.

More please, maybe a 2 player coop version perhaps. Fantastic work ????????.

Funny Hack with Turtle Powertygerbug2022-09-30Version 1.1

Super Mario Bros is the most often-hacked game of all time, and a hack really has to do something different and unique to stand out. This hack passes that test.

The music carries a lot of the weight here, mashing up Super Mario Bros and the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles NES game in an amusing way. Mario apparently has a vendetta against turtles, and the enemies are now mostly turtle-related, including the four Ninja Turtles as Bowser. This could have been pushed farther but works well enough.

The palette choices are a bit dark and murky, with a lot of black and green. The levels are unique, with some elements unlike anything in the regular game. It can be frustrating but it's unique enough, and worth the time you'll spend playing through.
