Maniac on the Run! - A Super Mario Land Hack
« on: October 13, 2016, 06:27:59 PM »
Join Larry the Maniac as he goes on a 10 level rampage after escaping from the Mushroom Mental Facility! Journey alongside our anti-hero as thoughts of Mario slowly drive Larry mad, eventually taking over his entire perception of reality!

This is essentially a total conversion spoof hack for the Game Boy game: Super Mario Land.  :happy:

Features:

New font!

Massive amounts of graphics changes - damn near every graphics in the game has been touched!

Level edits based on my preference - Some levels are edited more extensively than others  :wink:

Gratuitous amounts of sawblades!  :banonsmash:

99 Tries rather than 3 lives (starting on Try 1, if you die the number increases rather than decrease)

Some other shit!
 

Patch is intended for a Super Mario Land (World) (Rev A) rom. Patch is attached to this post.

Thoughts and criticism are welcome and appreciated! This is my first finished hack.

I hope those of you that have tried MotR! are enjoying yourselves.  That's right, all five of you!  :wink:

If you haven't given it a go, check it out! It's probably the most extensively edited hack of Super Mario Land 1 hack in existence at this time (well, graphically speaking at the least)!


And if you like the crazy antics of The Maniac, then you'll be pleased to know that a sequel is already in the works, based on another timeless Gamy Boy classic - The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX.

I plan on editing as much of the game as I possibly can, starting with the text and graphics. So far a plethora of graphics and text have been altered, and my "make it look as good as the original or better" philosophy continues as well.

And thanks to the fact that many of the enemies and characters in the ROM have multiple copies of their graphics strewn about the banks and tilesets, there will be a much larger variety of foes than the original game had.

Attached to this post are a few WIP screens of my next project - The Legend of Larry: MotR!2. Lemme know what you think!

Do you know if there is a ROM map for this game, even a partial one? I haven't checked DataCrystal yet, but someone was mentioning this game lacked a randomizer so I was wondering if it was because this game is poorly documented of simply because of lack of interest...

I wish. I've been trying to scope out info on this game to no avail for a few months now.

There's a Link's Awakening hacking thread I made on RHDN where a person posted a backup of a Zeldahacking forum that may be a potential goldmine of now lost information... but at 300+ mb my caveman internets fails me.  :lame:


Link to the aforementioned thread: http://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php/topic,23040.0.html


Hope that helps!
