Esta hack é uma sequencia da hack SMW o resgate da princesa lançada em 2017 aqui no site, ela é uma aventura que conta a jornada de Luigi para resgatar a Princesa Daisy por tras das cenas ao mesmo tempo em que mario esta em sua aventura no primeiro jogo.

Veja o trailer de lançamento da hack:

A hack contem 9 mundos 92 fases novas, novas mecanicas, musicas, sprites, graficos e etc.

Essa atualização(2022) contem diversas melhorias se comparado ao lançamento original da hack aqui no site em 2019, diversas paletas de cores foram melhoradas, varias melhorias de gameplay foram adicionadas e a dificuldade melhor balanceada.

Assim como de costume com meus projetos essa hack tambem contem uma localização para o protugues brasileiro(porem faltando acentos devido as limitações do SMW)

For some reason, some sprites don't show up, especially the platforms.
This happens a lot in world 8, also in the 7th special level where the pipe (barrel) cannons don't show up

For some reason, the message box at the start of Pyramid Exploration in world 1 is not showing any text at all for me. (The second message box later in the level shows its text just fine, though.)

I played this on a previous version in 2021 and just never posted my notes, so hopefully none of this is outdated. This is a really well made hack.

The dragon coins are meaningful in this hack, they unlock levels in the special world. Almost without exception the dragon coins are in one half of a level which means you don't have to run the whole level in one life. Lot of convenience features like lives being retained after power off and ability to save any time.

The wing cap power up in Wing Cap Hills was new to me, this has to be tied with the baseball bat from Jump 1/2's 2nd (?) level as my favorite powerup. It gets used in I think 5 stages, I really wish these sections were longer. The spaceship from Super Mario Land's last level makes an appearance in Space Pop's Travel and Space Pop's Finale and it's awesome. There is some really bad slowdown in these levels though.

Nearly every time something new is introduced, you get a safe way to try it out before the level really starts. A good example are the hoopsters that can be ridden in Hoopster Groove. You get one right up front as the first thing in the level along with a darker colored vine that can't be climbed on, then both are used through the level. Another example is sideways vines, the first level to use them has you climb on one above safe ground before using them over pits. I appreciate when games do this, good design.

It's a big hack. It took about 8 hours to complete. Video of playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqvIHerHvautrKn2QJc_njgSWgDJxoKON

Really fantastic work. Very impressive you accomplished this in a year! 116 exits is nearly unheard of.

Esse segundo capítulo foi o último e o melhor da smw o resgate da princesa, apesar da história ser "clichê" ela tem algumas diferenças bem da hora, o vilão não é dessa vez o Bowser dessa vez e sim o Tatanga, você joga com o Luigi (obviamente) e a princesa dessa vez é a Daisy. O mapa, level design e a estética pra mim é nota dez. Então eu te darei 5 estrelas! Meus parabéns bandicoot pela dedicação enorme!

The brazilian version is working fine.
Sorry for the inconvenience.


thanks. though there was another update produced a few days ago in July 2022 that includes that softlock fix

This is a FANTASTIC hack! I have a question however. The shooting barrel level was almost unplayable on a NTSC snes because the rotation is just too fast. I had to switch to my PAL snes and beat it the first time. Was it designed on a PAL snes?
bandicoot Author Link
Note. This update has been on romhacking.net for a while and by request this is a reupload of that improved version here in smwcentral since the latest version here is very outdated, it does have some improvements even over the version submitted there like snow,rain and falling leaves layer 3 effects in some levels and some dificulty balancing and especially a lot of improvements compared to the version last uploaded here.
Save files from the previous versions are compatible with this newer version.
I hope you guys enjoy! Thanks!

Hi - I love SMW The Princess Rescue 2 - Luigi's Journey!

Can you please say what's the main music in Steep Slopy Caves in World 3? I recognize the melody but can't pinpoint it and it's killing me :)

Thank you for your work!

yup. really fun to play.
hopefully this new version will be accepted and won't be turned down since many of the problems found in older versions were fixed in this new release.

really fun!
i mean that's all i gotta say!
bandicoot Author From older version: SMW The Princess Rescue 2 - Luigi's Journey! Link
Thanks for the reminder Erpster.
Thats because smw remembers all the paths opened from the previous playthrough in the .srm even if they no longer exist in the map, so please everyone start from a fresh save file and it will be gone.

I tested and it was gone.


about this bug fix - I have only notice it when using a brand new save file or a new game. When I use an old save file from a previous or older version, the bug still occurs.

please tell others to use a new save file for this new version

apparently there was supposed to be a new v1.4/v1.41 release but did not make it out of the "waiting" stage by the end of last month


once again, another updated version of this game was submitted and rejected again - details mentioned here.

Pretty decent and fun hack overall but suffers from several problems.

1. Overuse of certain enemies made many levels feel repetitive. The SMB3-style fire piranha plant in particular was far too overused. It felt like at times you were struggling with a level theme and decided to throw a bunch of these in instead. A lot of the time, it felt like I was replaying the same level over with a different soundtrack and colour palette.

2. Too many levels relied on enemy spam as difficulty. Lots of levels would fill the screen with projectiles and enemies; it seemed that these were not actually placed with care. Clever use of enemies for platforming sections was missing as well.

3) Significant slowdown in a few levels, mostly those where you decided to throw as much on the screen as possible. Made it very annoying to navigate endless spam being thrown my way.

4. A few of the bosses lacked midways before the boss fight. Replaying an entire section and a boss fight is super annoying, and is a sign of a lack of testing and actual playthrough by the level designer.

That said, there were many levels that were creative and that I really enjoyed. Mostly those that relied on actual platforming rather than throwing as many enemies at me as possible. In general, many non-kaizo hacks suffer from the above problems, but this hack at least attempted at times to overcome them. The overall aesthetics, soundtrack, and boss fights were very well done as well. Overall it's a 3/5 or a 3.5/5 for me. I hope you read this and consider the feedback for your next project.

This is a pure work of genius by Mr. Bandicoot. There were a few issues I found here and there playing through the game, but, they're not even worth mentioning as I had a blast with this, everything about this one was awesome. 5/5.

I have not had this much of a rush when playing a Super Mario World ROM Hack in a long time. The Princess Rescue 1 and 2 (which I'm currently playing) have filled me with so much joy while playing.

beat is a deprecated app from byuu that has been discontinued long ago.
use floating ips (Flips) to patch BPS files


Note: Game saves do not work in the 3rd slot (Game 3). avoid using the 3rd game slot from the title screen; otherwise, all game saves will be lost when attempting to save on the 3rd game slot. maybe needs the newest sram+ patch but that's just a guess.

if you go down on the secret item spot in melting ice valley, you will end up on level 00, or the endless bonus game. be careful to not make a savestate there or you will end your playthrough instantly. just going to that part of the map is game ending. why? there is no path to get back to the map. possibly an old leftover path from a beta version of this mod? also, the pipe lakitu in the first level of melting ice valley throws broken spinies. by broken, i mean they look like shy guys. other than that, good job on the hack!

Another masterpiece.

As always, there is an awesome level design, graphics are beautiful, and so is the music with bright references to glorious games from the past. The overworld is wonderful too, very cleverly designed.

ASM mods are fun, "wind cap" and "no jump" for example are very good ones, and so are the bosses. The game is hard but not too much, difficulty is very well balanced. Really hard parts are softened thanks to the ability of having a star in item box if you find secret bonus areas, becoming very handy in the latter levels.

The game is very long, 116 exits and 92 stars to find in total, this is awesome ! This game will greatly reward 100% players, making the search for each star coin very entertaining. Thank you for putting the icon remembering whether you collect them all in each level and saving it to SRAM, this is soooo nice =]

As Kaizo tends to become the norm these days in new submissions, I really want to thank you for bringing such a great game to players who don't play Kaizo but are still looking for a quite challenging game. It is really refreshing and so long-awaited =]

10/10 (5 stars) Thank you bandicoot, you and every one who participated =]
Megamanboy From older version: SMW The Princess Rescue 2 - Luigi's Journey! Link
Overall a pretty good hack, somewhat varying quality in terms of interesting level design and more or less "bland" levels. I would rate this as easy-to-normal difficulty throughout, with a few specific levels having some minor spammy sections or well-programmed custom sprites being a source of difficulty. The last few levels were fairly difficult.

Most vanilla style levels felt nice to play, but most difficulty throughout the hack came from more or less spammy sections that didn't feel that good. The gimmicky levels were few, but especially the
late game no-jump levels were fun, and they were well designed.
Very much appreciated that all the star coins were concentrated on one side of a midway, and they were never too hidden, making the collection much less tedious.

Graphically this hack looks very good, and also some nice music choices throughout, great job there.

There's an abundance of thoise coins that "fill in", making no sense most of the time. I'm not gonna jump over a pit 3 times just to collect a few coins. It kinda bothered me a little bit.

Important to note; You can crash the game in quite a few levels that have autoscrollers starting in the middle, if you screen scroll into them the game crashes. I didn't try this in every instance but I could at least do it in one level, you might wanna look into that.

4/5

Noivern - Thanks for moderating the hack.
I did a quick look on that C3 thread during the testing phase and fixed a lot of what you pointed at the time, so thanks a lot for the help with the reports.
The status bar flashing tough never ocurred to me during the tests.
I dont know what is causing this, but maybe its a emulator issue?
which emulator did you used while moderating?
I used snes9x for windows and for 3ds while playtesting the hack.

 Noivern From older version: SMW The Princess Rescue 2 - Luigi's Journey! Link
Changed the difficulty to Hard due to the difficulty of the last few worlds, even considering dynamic difficulty.

The status bar flashing I reported during C3 is still there, and present throughout the entire hack. A really bad bug similar to this happened here, late in the game. It was ultimately not a removal reason due to the length and general high quality of the hack as well as the fact that it doesn't cause a crash or softlock.
