Ok, laughters apart, this is "Balloon Mario", a Super Mario Bros hack for the NES inspired by Balloon Fight, along with something from another NES game called Hello Kitty World, a game only released in Japan by Character Soft, inspired by Balloon Fight as well. But today’s video is this hack, so leave apart the other games and let’s talk about this one.
Super Mario graphics aren’t changed. Maybe something the colors but nothing else;
Scene graphics are from Balloon Fight and Hello Kitty World;
Music probably comes from that one of Hello Kitty World but cut off, probably because of copyright issues.
This hack has 8 levels that are called both “trips” and “relays” and in almost every level, screen scrolls automatically. Only level 6 is almost an exception, a level in which you have to find a star in order to move on the next level screen.
There are no power ups to collect, as well as no coins. What you can find along the way are skull blocks scattered through the level maps and poisonous mushrooms inside hidden blocks.
Lives are illimitated, probably developers were conscious about how much this hack is hard.
Time is useless in this game, since levels scroll automatically, in my opinion, as well as the coin counter, since I didn't see any coin to collect in levels.
Enjoy this video, guys and see you in my next video that will be Keystone Kapers for the MSX!!
