This hack was excellent, apart from the fact that the bombs didn't work correctly on the walls everything was perfect, a balance between difficulty and precision. What music did you use during the upper part of the castle?

Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it! #smrpg{y}

If you meant the normal part of the castle without being on the underground, it's Pilotwings - Helicopter.

Tive o privilégio de jogar essa hack, pena que ela é curta, mas achei bem interessante da pra fazer um mario com fases no castelo.

Oh yes, the hack is finally accepted!
Do you plan to create a new short or longer hack soon?
Heitor Porfirio Author From older version: A Semi-Normal Castle Link
I definitely plan on doing another hack, and it will be much longer than this one.
In addition, it will have history, and several other cool things.

At least I learned that I shouldn't do gimmicks with bombs like that. But thank you very much for the feedback,  Alex and  Anorakun! #tb{^V^}

The bomb gimmick is good and there's no reason to not using it, I'm just saying that with some tweaks it can be easily improved.
Heitor Porfirio Author From older version: A Semi-Normal Castle Link
Oh yes, I understand. Well, who knows, maybe I might think about bringing an update to make this section a little better.

After finishing the only level in this hack I kinda wanted more, so I definitely recommend to add more stuff into this hack, if you're ever planning it. Regarding level design, Anorakun's comment describes perfectly what can be improved if you plan to update/add more content to the hack. Nice work regardless.

I feel that the bob-omb sections would benefit of some rework in the wall setups. The breakable bob-omb walls section is a difficulty spike compared to the rest of the hack. The yoshi coin is extremely precise and hard to pick, If you gave more leeway for the player to destroy the walls, it would be much more fun. Minor nitpick of mine is that all the Thwomps look the same, so their readability is quite poor. If you could, maybe differentiate them by using different palettes. With these issues aside, this is a very nice short and fun hack.

Short but sweet hack!

Hi, Good Hack!
lo fang 123 From older version: A Semi-Normal Castle Link
Even though the hack is short, it is very fun and there were no serious errors. #smrpg{y}

note: I tested on snes9x and bsnes, maybe it doesn't corrupt the hack's music.

Overall pretty fun hack
I think the bombs could be very much improved (they feel extremely unfair right now) and the hack is kinda short in my opinion, but still a fun experience, 4 stars.
By any chance, what is the song used in the final boss?
Heitor Porfirio Author From older version: A Semi-Normal Castle Link
Thanks for the feedback! In section of bombs, I also felt this sincerely, but because of technical things that don't make the explosion accurate in relation to the blocks, I don't think I have much to do about it. But, thanks for the feedback. #smrpg{y}

Oh, and the boss song is Shinobi III: Return Of The Ninja Master - Alone in the Flames ~ Solitary (Remix)
