Super Mario Bros. Enhanced

this hack is pretty good haven't played through everything only the first 3 worlds and pretty good for it's time solid 4/5 by far the best unofficial way to play SMB1

Have a lot of nostalgia for this hack, and it still holds up pretty well! Back when I was a wee lad with just ZSNES (and back when it was still socially acceptable to use this emulator), this was my favorite way to play through Bros. 1. That's changed a bit, but still think this hack is a fun experience and the best 'Bros. 1 remake in World'.

World has my favorite control scheme of the 2D Mario games, and having that applied to Bros. 1 makes for something that I found a lot more fun to play than the original. The levels are pretty faithfully re-created. No real big changes level layout wise and everything is laid out exactly like the original. I had no idea until semi-recently that Pac even went through the trouble of recreating the Minus World glitch! It's a really rad attention to detail.

The new Worlds are a pretty neat novelty as well utilizing elements from World, so you can do some pretty fun cheatsy stuff you couldn't do in Bros. 1 like having Yoshi. It's broken to bits in terms of balancing, but a fun reward for clearing the original 8 Worlds and feels like it better warrants the use of World as a base (instead of limiting the player to just the mechanics/features Bros. 1 had).

The Bros. 3 visual aesthetic is also really nice. I personally found it the nicest looking of all the facelifts that All-Stars received and it gives it a more visually unique identity than just re-using the Bros. 1 side of the game. The visual variety feels a lot more plentiful here.

Really the biggest thing holding it back are some limitations from the time when ASM hacking was a lot less common for Mario World ROM hacks. The Bowser fights are reskinned Bowser Statues, the 'looping' effect in the later castles is absent, no longer fireball chains, and the Warp Zone sadly defaults to the highest possible World choice rather than letting you select some previous worlds.

It's still a very fun romp since Bros. 1 is still a well-designed game at it's core. However, certain things being absent and the much easier difficulty might come as an unfortunate drawback for some. If you want an easy-going hack, just want to see Bros. 1 with Bros. 3 assets, or kinda want to cheat Bros. 1's level design with some of the new features, then there's still a fun half hour to kill here!

Thank you for all the memories, Pac. I assume you don't really check around here anymore judging by your profile activity, but this was a great time and I'd still recommend this. You made a young me very happy.

don't listen to people like him, this is a great reskin of the original game, this is a great one, and i don't even care about it when people say that kind of shit, don't let it discourage you at all!

Speedrunners in a nutshell lol.

I completed my second SMW hack, i liked this hack so much, i like the All Stars SMB3 graphics in the originals levels along with the music, also World 9 and 0 were pretty good.

You know something, I played the older version before when you name was Peter_ac instead of Pac.

I give this hack 5 stars, pretty good remake of the original game.

Although this was slightly modified and submitted in 2015, the original hack was actually made way back in 2005-2006. It was pretty damn cool for the standards back then. I guess that's just what happens when the original release dates aren't included in the sections here...

However, the level design here is based off of the official Nintendo games. If you think this is really that bad then you're basically saying that Nintendo's official games are bad too. O_o A level doesn't need to be hard to be fun.

this game is way to eay if no one can beat this game 100% in under 25 minutes they have no business playing it felt like a 2yr old made this game that is how easy it was either learn how to make harder rom hacks or stay the FUCK OFF this site Pac🖕 i give this game a 1 star out of 5 cause the game was to easy and very boring

I just started world 4 , the visuals are great and all , but the level design is kinda lacking , in world 3-1 you had hammer bros but world 3-2 was a flat land with a bunch of holes a pirahna plant coming out of a pipe and a bunch of goombas and koops , 3-3 is something i'd expect to see in a smm level not in a 4.6 rating smw hack
For Now 2/5 stars , might change once i finish .

Hello Pac,

A very pleasant SMB 1 remix, with colorful and smooth graphics !

The two extra worlds are very fun to play, and the possibility to ride Yoshi through them is very fun.

10/10 (5 stars), thank you very much for your nice work =]

ForthRightMC, where can I get the "remade AddmusicK" version of the SMB enhanced hack that you did? I can not find it.

Luansilva12, the download is working lately.

I like it. 5 stars

Also, I music remaked this hack using Addmusick.

An okak remake of SMB1. The graphics were nice and without any issues (except for some cutoff which could've been avoided). The insertion of two extra world made by the author is a plus, they really felt like something Nintendo could actually put as extra worlds in a SMB game. The mechanics more or less have been nailed, except for some minor things like the blooper being a Rip Van Fish reskin and the firebars being Ball'n chains.
Some issues found:
- 8-1 is missing hammer brothers.
- You can use Yoshi in this hack once you beat the original game. Means you can bring him in the castles and look how silly his head gets when a podoboo shows.

Overall, a good remake. 3/5.
