Well, that’s where SM64.Z64 comes in. A terrifying rom hack that I’ll be getting into today.

Hey man, can I give you a video idea?
.
just a small thing, that actually was the waterfall missing, not the wind.
@@DudeSusIsTaken Yea, I noticed that too!
My name🙂
"There's a lack of wind" man let's ignore the missing waterfall then
yep
Honestly lol
And windows
Mhm, yup, lets ignore it
the "wind" being the sound of the waterfall
"If you boot it up the second time, you'll notice something different"
Yeah the waterfall and the windows of the castle are gone.
"The wind is gone"
Alright.
Wind > Big ass waterfall
yeah i was waiting for him to say "and the waterfall is gone" and he never dose
Same
Yeah had to look for this comment
must've been the wind
The words "better off without you" are so powerful. They hit hard no matter the context, even if it's just some mario hack, even if you know that the original game would still accept you.
It doesn’t like cheaters
bro is roasting me 💀

The origin of melt.exe (cuz I don't know the actual name of it) in FNF Classified. Honestly I like both things, but I don't remember anyone explaining the romhack that showed it. Also, the song is good in my opinion (named Better Off, like Better Off With You)
The whole rom hack has this "neglected past" feel to it. Its something that falls apart as you try to go back and feel how good some memories felt. But as you go back to revisit your past, you begin to see many ugly things you never knew happened with your seemingly happy memories. Now, every time you revisit a memory, its slowly torn apart from the colorful world it once was into a decrepit, dark pit.
Maybe your past was better off without you coming back to see it.
That sends chills through me. Most of our memories are forged of belief and a lot of little mistakes that keep building up over time. It's like this is a metaphor. "There wasn't any butterflies. As a matter of fact, there wasn't any water at the time. The sky was dingy, and it was dark. What you didn't know was, while you were out having that strange "fun" adventure, there was a serial killer stalking you. You just so happened not to get far enough into obscurity for him to come after you." All of this wrapped up in a few mistaken details and a "Good Memory."
I shudder to think what memories I have that are far more twisted than I recall...
You are the BEST. Please feel free to enlarge your comment. I would love to hear more from you. I save your comment too.
lol nah 🤓
It gives me the same offputting vibes that some Garry's Mod maps give.
3:37 "There's a lack of wind."
My brother in christ, the entire damn *_waterfall_* is gone. 💀
Or windows
The entire castle is textureless except the roof.
It's not even wind it's the sound of the fucking waterfall crashing down.
Lmaoooo brother in Christ
3:37 "There’s a lack of █." My brot█er in █ █ █ █, the en█ damn *_█ █ █ █_* is █. 💀
3:34
Actually something to note. It’s not the sound of the wind that is missing.
Instead it’s the sound of the waterfall beside the castle that is missing. In fact, the entire waterfall becomes missing.
You must be fun at parties. Learn a joke or two to understand.
@@silque_brigandess dude he literally just didn't get that it was the waterfall. what's the joke lmao
@@silque_brigandess epic failure lol
@@aidenlilley1319 Yeah, if it wasn't serious it'd be for engagement's sake instead.
@@silque_brigandess something something overused ratio joke
This gives me the feeling of when you revisit a childhood game and it doesn’t feel anywhere near as fun as it did
…
Definitely ROBLOX.
Not only is this scary from a horror perspective, but there's also something super claustrophobic about this romhack that I can't describe. Like with every reset Mario is falling deeper into Limbo.
@@bloodbonniekinghi
WE'RE CHOOSIN' THE WRONG KEY WITH THIS ONE BOYS 🗣❗
This video is good coverage of this rom hack, but I have just one criticism. The "glitchy" effects that you edited in only takes away from the ambience of the hack itself, as it just seems tacky and disingenuous. Neat idea, but it's better to let the hack unsettle on its own.
Yeah, plus the constant showcase of future scenes like with the glitchy mario just nuked any suspense from orbit, a when is so much more terrifying when there is also a what
yes
He has the right to review content however he wants - the beauty of RUclips. If you want the hack’s untouched unsettling experience, maybe play the hack or find another video that caters your specific sensibilities?
@@Dayserking Okay but we as the audience have a right to express our opinions and advice, he's only producing constructive criticism (plus, I'm fairly certain that the majority of the viewers agree with the statement after reading other comments).
@@Dayserking He has the right to comment on the video however he wants - the beauty of RUclips. If you you dont want people sharing their opinions and voicing criticisms, maybe dont look at the comments or just dont be so overly defensive against harmless criticism?
Something to note: The video doesn't tell you outright but each reset takes a bob-omb away from the painting, signifying a countdown of sorts. It looks like each time you play there seems to be a metaphor of you ruining the game itself, not the game ruining itself which gives more insight to the ending
I didn't notice that-
@@niggasinanutshell6590 Odd place to put a rickroll, but okay.
As much as I would love to see a real personalise copy I highly doubt that Nintendo themselves wouldn't go down that lane
@@ninjapro5451 meanwhile, SEGA is releasing "Who killed Sonic the Hedgehog"
@@SheepRunner well yeah but that was only on April fools day
Bob-Omb Battlefield’s theme with a greatly emphasized bass line is kinda fire, honestly.
67 likes and no replies? lemme fix that rq
in all seriousness though, bob omb battlefield bass slaps on its own, id kill for a remix with just that
The part at the end where you get chased by M (The Black and White marios name is M Btw) is terrifying, the distant static, only being covered by marios noises is genuinely anxiety enducing, and the fact the map is massive so you dont know where M is coming from is genuinely terrifying, and the end where the textbox said: "everything is better off without you" made my heart sink.
I think the reason I find this hack so terrifying is that I'm more afraid of what leads up to a jump scare more than the actual jump scare itself. it gave me that feeling of dread that i feel when playing a game like spooky's house of jump scares or to a lesser extent, fnaf 4.
its honestly these types of game that make me scared the most. the atmosphere is really what makes the jumpscare more terrifying
That’s what horror is supposed to be
play silent Hill
thats probably cause you know there will be a jumpscare, but you don't know when and where
Btw are there any jumoscares or just the buildup?
The thing I love about this rom is that it doesn’t include any jump scares or scares at all. All it does is set up atmosphere for the player, which, to me, is the scariest thing you could do in a horror game or movie. Building up to something that doesn’t happen is horrifying because you don’t know what to expect
I was looking for this comment
I thought the beginning said “one thing I hate about this game” for a second and I was just like “⚰️

Tension is like 90% of horror
@@ryanosborn9478 get out of here
B3313 is by far the scariest for me. Just that dreamlike feelong of being eternally lost, in spaces that are familiar, but different.
"Everything is better off without you" yeah cant argue with that
It’s weird how perfect Bob-Bomb Battlefield’s design is for horror. The long path winding up the mountain builds suspense so perfectly because you can’t see around the corners or to the top
True, something could just be waiting for you and you aren't able to see it.
Im waiting for a horror game to build tension for minutes on end just to end with the OGAA BOOGA jumpscare
The "corrupted Mario" is normally supposed to start flying towards you when the timer reaches 0'00. The entity also emits a static sound so as it gets closer to you, the static gets louder and louder. It seems that it got stuck during your playthrough of the rom.
"corrupted Mario's" actual name is "M".
The corrupt mario starts to become corrupt and stuck
m is real
@@tinmanne unfortunately l is not yet real
alr so the m means "MURDERER."
@@niggasinanutshell6590 bro that username 💀
The screen shaking part actually made the hair on my arms and legs feel like it stood up and I got goosebumps.
Nice!
I love how my mind when 8:20 went to “unannounced to Mario, he will not get it”
Like in a twilight zone episode
This hack shows EXACTLY how a horrifying personal version of SM64 for me to be. Seeing the game detoriate and become empty, absolutely no jumpscares and a feeling that you don't belong mixed in with the fear of the unknown in the dark is horrifying for me. They don't want me here, I only ruin everything I want to participate in. It's all my fault. That's what the game says. Especially one I love.
ok
Hey man are you ok?
I don’t want you on my dodgeball team
Boohoo, let a digital character terrorize you ooooo so scary
Yea, ya alright?
This only makes me wish more for an actually "personalized" Mario 64 hack/fan game. Like a randomizer but with a ton of potential changes to give the impression that the game is changing every time it's played.
That's likely a gross oversimplification of what would actually need to be done, but the concept would be really cool.
@Joey Nitro b3313 is not a randomizer in the least
Of someone ever tries to make a personal Mario 64 hack, I think that not only important details would be personalized, but also very subtle details that truly make the game feel different every time
i'd personally go with an attempt at making an efficient ai to theoretically try to generate actual personalization through small changes
like coins being moved, or a flying cap, or metal cap, or it going easier or harder based on how the player seems to be doing
like how l4d technically is personalized
That's what the warped worlds rom hack was aiming for before it's cancellation
@@papramayro46 Yeah, but version 1.0 will achieve that goal
"Lack of wind"... While you're looking directly at the waterfall that is no longer there. Holy crap that is frustrating lmao
was about to comment this
I don’t know how to explain it but if you remove the glitchy effects , it completely changes the ambience.
Because if you add glitchy effects they’d know something is going to happen and know that they would expect a visit from THEM.
This actually gave me chills as i spent like half the video panicking and thinking that 'thing' was gonna pop out of nowhere
Same
Exactly😂😂😂
same lmao
Same😂
😊
3:46 not a lack of wind, the waterfall stopped flowing. You’re no longer hearing it fall.
ITS FLOODING
This sent shivers down my spine. The environment feels and sounds so quiet. While this game wasn't designed to do this (or at least im assuming not), games that can manage to scare you without any kind of jumpscare/gore, are simply fantastic. Great video!
@3:55 its not wind, its the waterfall
I honestly missed content like this back in 2020. Best of both worlds. Psychological horror, and one of my favorite childhood games. It really caught my interest unlike anything in a while and I was invested until it suddenly silently died down unfortunately. But I do hope this means it makes a small comeback
I got allstars and had seen all the creepypasta stuff before and the castle just creeps me out for no reason now lol
It was great, like playground rumors coming back to life.
2020? what
@@Blox117 When psychological horror became more mainstream
ruclips.net/video/ku2PzKWFPvg/видео.html
It’s finally here
the thing that really scares the shit out of me is always expect a really loud jumpscare sound to start to play but it never happens, even tho its hard for me to get scared with stuff like jumpscares
Yeah jump scares aren't really sc-BOO!
@@dreameater60 HOLY SHIT DUDE DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT?!?! :(
I think that feeling is dread
@@dreameater60 AHH! stop i almost dropped my croisant
The biggest jumpscare was when he said the menu music changed and I put my phone up to my ear and got my eardrums turned into guacamole
I looked at the “super” in the text and it looked like “sperm ario” 1:14
did ario get to the egg
Thank you so much for the commentary on my playthrough of the hack :D I would've totally won the race if I hadn't fallen off the mountain lmao
I think I remember somewhere reading that the corrupted Mario or "M" is actually a representation of a bug that is "alive", it doesn't have a conscience, it just consumes more and more and more of the game, until nothing is left, and seeing as it uses a Mario model, it could be possible that the game, as a last resort, fixes the problem by bringing the bug to Mario's current location and let it delete Mario, which also deletes the bug, hence the "everything is better of without you" text, you the player are controlling Mario, destroying the world as a consequence of playing the game more and more, the more you play the more the bug consumes, you could have left to stop it from deleting and corrupting things but you didn't, you kept playing, and then it deleted you.
Oh man this makes me think back to when my Oblivion game began to eat itself..
@@monk3110 What happened?
@@yellowpower3755 Things just began disappearing up to and including buildings. It’s a well known glitch where one of the daedric guard enemy types in “The Shivering Isles” uses up like 1000 ID at a time a piece and at around the 200 hour mark this will have caused the object ID counter to “rollover” and it will then overwrite the object IDs of everything in the game eventually
A game better off without the player? Whats the point of a game if no one playes it?
@@CyberPunkBadGuy that's the thing, it has no point, but what else could you do, it wasn't meant to be like that, it was a bug, it wasn't intentional.
Ah, Super Mario 64. What a strange game. There's something just so..unnerving about the complete loneliness of it. There's just something eerie about how Mario and a few toads are the only people in the area. Not only that, but Peach's castle just feels..empty. It's all so empty and eerie, and I love it.
that is, until you reach the ending and find that the world truly does have merit.
Original comment
It’s that liminal space feeling
agreed quandale dingle
Quandale Dingle
my theory is that the player of the game (in the lore) has some sort of condition/disease that causes their mind to decay, like alzheimer or dementia idk. considering the game is supossed to be "personalized to the liking of the player" since the player is rotting so is the game. The corrupted mario is supossed to represent the disease consuming and killing the player, and everything is better of without us. after all, the game doesnt have to corrupt itself anymore, it doesnt have anyone to personalize itself to.
"here's the original song for comparison"
*plays totally different sections of the song*
Another thing that changed after the first reset was that the waterfall disappeared. Really creepy if you think about it
I thought I was the only one who knew this. Good to know somebody else saw it
someone must have been really thirsty to drink all of that
The sound isn’t wind, it’s actually the waterfall. So, the waterfall’s sound *and* visual disapeared.
I thought that too
The windows also disappear on the castle I think
I think everything being back in the end, only the player missing, represents a change in perspective from us to the world.
We try to remember the stuff we did in the past, replaying our memories in our minds like we replay the same level over and over again but as time goes on we start missing details.
When we are gone, the stuff we did didn't even matter, it's like we weren't even there to begin with. Things may have changed in your mind, but to the world it didn't matter.
the waterfall is missing too though
@@indeepjable fuck, I didn't notice that
not sure if it invalidates my interpretation, was fuck-up of the programmer or they chose to remove it to not having ambience sound competing with the music.
@@indeepjable Yeah, but that doesn't matter much in the interpretation. Especially considering the fact that this game was made to be anti-human, and is supposed to be a lesson. People say this is a horror game, but if you go far enough, you get a reality ✔. There is no jumpscare, just a message saying how the world is better without you.
@@hisuianzoroark5726 A lesson in what, exactly? That we just shouldn’t exist?
@@yellowpower3755 yes
That’s such a scary Mario 64 ROM hack that I’ve ever seen and thanks for the explanation, Dude!

hey, musician here, thanks so much for playing! it was fun working on this and im glad its gotten this much traction! I only did the timer and ending theme but yeah i hope u enjoyed :)

An interesting thing to note - the entity that attacks Mario is actually just a reskinned homing 1-up. When the homing 1-ups chase down Mario, they have a tendency to get stuck on walls if you get on the other side of one, or in this case, getting to a lower elevation than it will cause it to get 'glued' to the ground, resulting in the entity standing still up until approached and the jump allowing it to be free to chase once more.
With efficient movement, it's also possible to reach the top of the mountain with plenty of time left, but nothing changes. You can also outrun the entity with efficient movement, though it won't do you much good.
Lastly, if you reset the game after you enter the level but before the entity spawns, nothing will happen and re-entering just puts you back onto the 'leave' segment; if you reset at any point after the entity has spawned, you'll be taken to the end screen. Essentially, there's no winning once the entity appears.
Something else to note: The final variation of the game somehow doesn't crash when using a savestate. I was able to load to the 4th iteration of the game from the "deleted mario" state, but not the others. Also I had 18 seconds remaining when I got to the top.
@@Overseer190 Sounds potentially more like an emulator issue, since I was able to put savestates down wherever and load from them just fine. Having anti-savestate measures in place intentionally would've been a neat touch, though.
What happens if you go to the flowerbed with the signs at the final segment?
@@metaljacket8128 There are no flowerbeds in the final version, just essentially the bare level model and eventually your 1-up buddy.
rom hacks like this are terrifying. i did a short no mic stream of this and it really gives you an uneasy feeling the entire playthrough. i have never felt such genuine dread from a game before and then panic when i heard that something was chasing me. the final text of the game really felt creepy
The fear of being unsure wha’s going to happen next, if used correctly, can be one of the scariest forms of fear. This Rom hack uses it perfectly.
My first time playing mario 64 on the switch was already kinda unsettling, the emptiness. while also being slightly difficult so you stay in the empty areas, you're alone only with small amounts of enemies in some areas, or toads.
EDIT: yeah I'm talking about water levels.
Since you've tried this "personalized" Rom, I wonder if you'd like to review B3133, a Mario Rom that takes anything from the beta and adds a lot of stars to take, while keeping the creepy and personalized side of the concept.
huh interesting
i think he already did
Repent and follow Jesus! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20.
Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God.
Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!
Gearisko: there's a lack of wind. Me: the waterfall is literally gone
This is the best kind of horror, great video!
Honestly given how empty SM64 is, this feels pretty appropriate for the game, even for a hack.
That being said, this really uses the concept of dread very well; it didn’t need to rely on jumpscares and that’s what makes it even scarier.
that's why I like psychological horror, it doesn't need cheap thing called jumpscares
Nor gore
3:43 actually, if you look at the waterfall by the castle, the water is completely missing👀 that wasn’t wind, it was the waterfall in the back just gone all together
Was gonna comment this glad I checked to see if someone said it first 😅
@@SmokinPuss ayy someone else noticed
So odd that he didn’t know it was a waterfall sound…
@@MarMaxGaming not just that, he didn't notice the waterfall was gone. It was a glaring difference
@@SmokinPuss he mentioned things were missing but for real, an unfortunate big swing and a miss not realizing it was the waterfall haha
Maybe when the timer pops up, your supposed to hide somewhere? Maybe the flower patch or whatever
The bed of flowers and downward pointing arrows makes me think of a grave, the flowers being there to pay respect (or maybe alluding to the idiom “pushing daisies”) and the arrows to the actual hole itself of the body in it
3:45 it wasn’t wind, it was the waterfall bud, it even disappears in the second run compared to the first (replay the side by side comparison and look to the left where the waterfall is)
Edit: Just realized this too but the windows on the castle in the second run are gone compared to the first
I saw that too lol
b u d
"bud"
bud is such an annoying word because of how passive aggressive it is, and the person who uses it is usually 😬(not you though im just saying no hate)
@@sunked5106 that feel when a girl always calls you bud 💀

yeah
waterfall doesnt return either
The ‘race start’ sound effect is absolutely perfect horror
bro the speed runners during the race section would have beat that so fast
"It's a lack of wind."
The entire fucking waterfall is missing.
Any game that has single player only gives you the eerie feeling someone's watching you
Waterfall: missing from rom hack
RUclipsr: there's a lack of wind
6:01 would prolly be more scary of a scene if the damn music wasn't a banger
5:54 Has the same feeling as going to school during the night time

0:01
i like how even after 4 years this quote still hits
Mario: currently in a life threatening race against time
Also Mario: Yahoo!
Yes
@Rio Inklinglmao
Well it makes sense my boi legit fought god’s and he is a Italian
WAAAAAAAAA!!
@Sepia damn it's a joke
if you listen closely at 6:34 you will realise that the music is actually the original one with many of the tunes muted
This is spoopkyyyyy! The screen gets dark?!?! Im shitting bricks
I played through this one. That last part especially with that creepy music damn near made me wanna scream for my mom. This is a great romhack.
8:01 hey that’s a face
Omg ur right
Im interpreting it as a face similar to my dad's when i was 10, but with ned flanders' (from the simpsons) mustache

The part where the timer started scared me for what was about to happen after it goes to 0.
3:26 actually the difference here is that the waterfall is gone, i think that wind sound is actually the sound of the water
Oh lol literally every new comment is pointing out the same thing
10:40 the clip of the other person "beating the timer", he didn't even get remotely close to where the flag would normally be to signal the end of the race before the timer hit 0
The most terrifying aspect is the creeping darkness that gets worse and worse. That is genuinely terrifying. Everything else is par for the course
Hey bro, I really appreciate you putting the songs used in the description, I was about to ask for the name of one of them (Blue Forest). I know you won't see this comment, but I just had to thank the effort so few put into this specific thing.
I love these games that gives us different ways to interpretate them.
This is like that weird Cave Story mod called Cave "No" Story... But actually done right.
Mmm...
I'll try it
Don't
This felt horrible man. When the first timer runs out and the music playing it reminded me of a scuba diver who ran out of air and tried his best to resurface. Eminent. Seeing the world decay and turn to darkness from the brightness it once was and you being there was haunting
After the first change, it wasn't the wind missing, it was the whole waterfall.
Love the video, but the glitchy effects really just killed it for me. Any feeling of suspense, dread, or even fear was just completely eliminated with them. Great job other than that
went from "wet-dry world negative emotional aura" to "bob-omb battlefield is literally hell"
Idk why but this rom really struck something in me. It feels a lot like how being suicidal feels: like everything around you is slowly deteriorating, like you can't remember the happy parts of life anymore. Especially the ending, it feels like internal dialogue. The last part where you're "racing" up the mountain feels, to me, like you(or mario or the character the story is about) has attempted to kill themself, and is dying slowly, the race timer symbolizing their life ending. I think that part could also be interpreted as the regret of actually going through with suicide, and the frantic attempt to escape and not die. It could also be interpreted as a loved one rushing the person(who killed themself) to the hospital in a desperate attempt to save them, only for them to succumb to their injuries and die in the end. The text box in the beginning of that level saying "leave" really solidifies that suicide situation for me.
On top of all of that, the end text, "everything is better off without you", is a thought that a lot of people who have gone through, or are currently going through, suicidal thoughts (like myself) experience: the thought that you're somehow draining the light and enjoyment out of the world for everyone, and that you're better off gone because of it.
But idrk, it's a really awesome rom hack and definitely one of, if not the most unsettling one's I've seen.
This rom hack is pretty cool. I think it really shows that games can be incredibly eerie with no jumpscares.
In the first transition it's not the sound of wind that goes away, but the sound of running water. The waterfall pouring into the moat disappears.
11:05 Imagine someone commits suicide because of this rom hack.
What a shitstorm that would be....
kinda hated how it said “leave” because its invoking that it’s dangerous
when the most dangerous thing is what you do not know, because if you knew it was dangerous, it was something familiar.
but mysterious and unknowing is something unfamiliar, and thats what makes it scary
I genuinely was getting so much anxiety as Mario climbed the mountain in the 4th version
I've been going down a rabbit hole with this creepypasta. It's kind of interesting.
3:37 Sir that wasn't wind, that was the waterfall disappearing. I think you might have meant water, but maybe you didn't notice the waterfall disappearing?
Or maybe you didn't notice the joke.
@@silque_brigandess how is it a joke
i didn’t notice the waterfall mainly cause I’ve never played sm64
@@MYLAR. Blasphemy! Go play it this instant!
People may find that removing bits and pieces of a song is creepy, due to losing the familiarity of the song. We all can recognize the main theme and bob-omb battlefield by their melodies, the big bombastic part of the song that is usually the first thing you think of. Without it, we're left with the underlying bass and percussion, which sounds off since we're not used to hearing it that much.
The bassline of Bob-Omb Battlefield slaps, though.
The real horror here is Gearisko somehow missing the lack of a waterfall and saying it's the wind instead
I got jumpscared by the video ending, and then immediately thought I was about to get jumpscared again by waiting too long on it.
Guys, I had to stop the demon core from exploding while playing as Quandale Dingle, then got Luigi, then fought the wario apparition, got Banjo kazooie, and finally fought Fat Albert.
You're lucky, Joe Biden just appeared at the beginning of my game and said to give him 1 "goofy ahh" nickel
@@user-nb7wx6je4e Your lucky, Fat Albert summoned Henry bartholomew dinglenut and Goofy ahh Uncle to fight me, good thing I unlocked Pac-Man before the boss fight with Flandre from The touhou series, because that was a bullet hell boss fight the caused my N64 to nearly explode, especially at the Ultra Obama Secret boss fight, I had to get my Sonic amibo to defeat him.
Haha hehe
what in the great absolution are either of you talking about
@@indeepjable Our personalized copies of Mario 64.
3:50 its not wind missing its the warerfall
This would be quiet funny with the first part of the caretaker playing everytime after the error of stuff being removed
Lack of wind? The whole waterfall is gone
Absolutely as the title of this video says! I'm obsessed with these rom hacks, but this is definitely the scariest version. Excellent video as always.
4:30 standing still on some flowers makes u teleport
I think the music at 8:35 is the theme from Yoshi’s Island before you fight the main boss for each world.
3:41
ah yes, missing waterfall is "lack of wind"
