Description: Nidoking wants to conquer the world, but to do so he must kidnap Shizuka! Our hero, Lakitu, ventures to defeat the Drill PokeMon. All credits are present in this text file, so I thank the Super Mario World Central community for providing
me with the material necessary for the development of this hack! Thank You very much for playing my hack! Lakitu's Great Adventure is a fairly long hack, however it doesn't seem to be easy. They are 24 super creative levels themed around something imaginative. Music, sprites, and even some enemies have been changed. Download this new hack (always if you are interested). Hope you like it (;^))

!Update!

In the updated version I have:

-Lowered the difficulty again
-Added a background for both "Painted Jungle" and "Retro Level"
-The Patch, No Magikoopa Respawn, has been inserted
-Retouching on some sprites
-New bonus room
-Removed the Sumo Bros that were at the beginning of the "Hot Sand Area" level (Reason: Causing strong graphical glitches)

I also tried to improve the credits, but I couldn't. Like I did for Steven's Strangest Day, the end will be a screen with some text. I know, it's hideous and anticlimactic, but this is better than the vanilla version of Mario World with the graphical glitches.

!Update!

-3 new levels (Grumble Volcano, Boots SpaceShip, Ninja House)
-Fixed bugs pointed by rafaelfutbal (thanks pal)
-New songs and new Graphics
-Improved credit screen

!Update!

-All the levels from Lakitu's Great Adventure 2 are here (this new update makes LGA2 obsolete).
-Improved Death GameOver Screen
-New enemies are altered (SumoPigs, Big Fygar, Shysters ...)
-Yoshis have different colors
-6 little World maps are made
-Level design and music has been changed
-Secret Ending added
-No timer, no Item Box

Very cool game :) crazy story and nice level design!
Also the graphics are good and the performance didn't suffer in any way.
Just some of the new gameplay aspects could have been improved and some of the levels are waaay too long making a not so difficult game very difficult sometimes.
I've reviewed it in detail: https://snes-testberichte.de/lakitus-great-adventure/
I hope to see more of your work.

I really enjoyed this hack. The gameplay was great and visuals too, a unique hack that'll definitely stick in my head.

But I had a few issues with it.
The Level's very really long and sometimes really hard. I didn't mind the length of the levels, but since they were so long and sometimes very challenging, I ended up using save states. I couldn't bring myself to playing the level like 10 times because I died at the boss. And I also didn't play this hack in one go. I made a save state since I can't normally save.
But overall It was a great experience, and I'd still give it a good 4/5 Stars.
I also played it on YouTube with no commentary if you're interested. --> Part: one, two, three, four, five, six.

This hack was alright.

The levels were quite long, and to boot, some of them had reeeeeally long autoscrollers thrown in. I'm fortunate I didn't die much, because oof.

Also, I don't get the point of not having a save file. What if someone's power dies while they're playing, or they just want to put the game down and play some more later?

In any case, I got through it all in about 2.5 hours.

Regarding this new update, I think it would make more sense to treat this hack as a "hack collection" instead of replacing it for the first hack.

wanted to enjoy but didn't get past the 2nd part of the first level, with all the fish, blaarg, and flying hammer bro spam and no power up? not sure how this isn't catergorized as at least Standard: Hard - I've played plenty of hacks.

This was a really great game to play and I really liked the level designs and music choices, it made the Hack really fun. One of the best SMW Rom Hacks I’ve ever played. #tb{:]}#smw{:TUP:} Definitely going to rate this Hack 5 stars. Keep up the great work, really would love to see another amazing SMW Rom Hack like this one in the further future.

@rafaelfutbal Thank you so much for appreciating my hack. For the first bug I'm sure you crossed the slope above. That I can fix, while for the second bug I have to find some patch that deactivates the bonus stage, because I have not the faintest idea why he does it. Thanks for notifying me of these bugs. I will try to fix them (; ^))

Fun, short hack. Had a blast. I like the graphics. The Yoshi's island stuff is always nice. Plus any hack that uses Sewer Surfin' should be 5/5 automatically.

Cool hack, not finished yet, but impossible to back in previous level? i wanted the cape but impossible even when i restart the game :(
But it's fun to play a lakitu GG

You can always PM the moderator who claimed your hack and send the update to them. When a hack is claimed, the user can't make any modifications. I'd suggest you send a PM to iggy (free) / Lazy about that.

So... It seems like a lot of people really like my hack, which is great I would say haha (For my first time hacking mario world I have to say ... I did a great job), but there are some criticisms that make me realize that the game needs to be changed. Here are what they are:
1) The game is difficult in the wrong way. There are no checkpoints and enemy locations make the game more difficult.
2) When the Banzai bill appears, some sprites disappear
3) The noise of the coins is annoying.
I will try to modify the game by this weekend. Thanks for reading the comment.

You might at least want to add a note about it somewhere.


Hello! You are definitely right! I will make a txt file with all the references, I especially apologize to the creator of the game
