Description:	Salty Sagan World is a moderately challenging Kaizo hack dedicated to the streamer, speedrunner and scientist CarlSagan42. It features a wide variety of levels mainly focusing on fast paced platforming with the occasional item tricks thrown in. Most levels also feature custom music to give them more character, apart from that though the hack uses almost exclusively vanilla SMW assets for that authentic SMW kaizo experience.

This Hack really makes me feel a unique sense of accomplishment!!! The levels I've won so far have a certain time for each jump or maneuverability of the items, and that makes me crazy with lust!!! 5/5 and I really hope to beat the 22 levels (I'm looking forward to getting to Blaarg's Lava pit, which will be an extremely challenging level)

FANTASTIC HACK! Well worth the grind.
- Thanks Oskise!

A murderous and sadistic kaizo hack, but don't be deterred. This hack is EXTREMELY fun and addictive because it is 90% classic platforming challenges, with a few item tricks here and there to spice things up.

And I am NOT a top-tier kaizo player. I still recommend it.

5/5

I just noticed how the death counter in the screenshots is 42 everywhere.

The Escort Mission was probably the hardest stage, and maybe the most frustrating also, although it was still a very fair stage, and after Version 1.1 the door entries were way more forgiving, which is probably the only reason I even finished the hack. Overall, an amazing hack with great design, I really wish Carl had the time to play it, especially since it's nowhere near as unfair as it used to be.

The escort mission was too much

Just played half of the hack and I can see good level design in this hack so far. (Especially the cave level and 'The Escort Mission' in world 3). Had a lot of fun playing this (even my finger is kinda hurt now).

5/5. I recommend this one for experienced kaizo player.

This is a tough kaizo hack that requires a great amount of previous kaizo experience. The 1.11 patch fixed a lot of the issues I previously had and for the most part everything seems fair(for a kaizo hack) and well tested.

The levels flow very nicely and are well-paced. The Vertical Escort mission and the lava level were great spins on existing kaizo archtypes.

Small glitch abuse required for 100%: Double eating sprites with Yoshi and an easy keyjump.

Difficulty: 4/5

@Oskise No, if you're close to the top, you can jump and stand in the ground out of the screen and skip some parts. Is easy to do. For example, watch this video in the minute 1:41:13

@HLXY is that for the TAS only?

HLXY 2018-04-06 05:22:39 AM Link

You can skip some parts in the levels. You can put some hidden blocks in the top of each level to fix it ;)
