Hack description

This is SMB NES, but easier. What changed:

-1 - SDS deleted everything in enemies exculding 2 1-1 last goombas.
-2 - SDS added bridge to 1-3
-3 - now last level is 1-4,not 8-4.

SysDataSoft made this to make game easier.

Ruined the Original ExperienceSlash-182023-09-08Version 1.0

I like the concept that made the original Super Mario Bros. easy and friendly to be playing with, but that hack really disappoints me.

First, why you removed almost all enemies including Bowser in 1-4 in the hack? Remove enemies is probably one of the best methods for nerfing the difficulty, but THERE'S NO POINT FOR YOU YO REMOVE NEARLY ALL ENEMIES IN WORLD 1 SINCE WORLD 1 IS NOT THAT HARD. The removal of the enemies literally tones down the difficulty, but then? The method kills the level designs, which made the levels extermely boring, you just need to walk to the flagpole only avoiding the endless pits.

Second, your attempt in 1-3 just made the level plain, the platforms are the core design of that level, but why you remove it? Just what you think it's hard?

Third, why you just end the hack in 1-4? Which made the original game extremely short to complete, combined with your 'easing' efforts, you just made the SMB boring to play with. And I could assume that you are lazy to modify the remaining levels so you put the 1-4 to the end of the game.

Overall, I REALLY, really not recommend that hack at all, no one would like the hack like this unless you want to waste your time.
