Description: This small hack is a moon hunt within SMW, in the vein of Super Mario Odyssey's Hint Art moons. The download contains the hack itself, some text files, and the most important thing of all: the Hint Arts. Directly inspired by the Super Mario 64 hack "Wario's Hint Art" by Lawnmowerman.

We would strongly recommend reading the "Info" text file provided, as it contains some essentials on gameplay, among other things.

An absolutely magnificent hack! The hint art was unbelievably well done! Definitely one of my favorite hacks now! #smrpg{y}

Had a lot of fun playing this! Took me about an hour and a half to beat it, and I did it all legit; Very proud of myself, hehe.

The only ones I struggled on was #18
(I forgot where the subarea was located)
, #29
I didn't know where to ground pound at first, then painstakingly went through the enemies until i found the odd one out
(helped out for #39 actually)
and #35
it took me too long to realize the numbers were meant to represent the numbered platforms, i thought it was groups of enemies or sm
.

Strongly recommend it for any "SMW Experts" looking to test their game knowledge and thinking skills. #smrpg{y}

Little fun moon hunting that tests the player knowledge about the vanilla game. I'm a person that's notoriously bad at solving puzzles, so it's surprising that I had so much fun figuring out each one of the 40 hints. A must-play for anyone who wants to have a good time.

Hi! It's my first time playing a game and I'm trying to start on the main, but this black square won't show up. How does it work?

For your information, I used the version of Snes9x 1.61.

Check out the info text file provided. It explains the gimmick: you'll need to look at the images in the "Hint Art" folder to find out where to look for the moons.

What a delightful little hack.
I downloaded it, just wanting to check out the pictures and see how many I'd get on a quick viewing.... Being convinced that I figured out the location of 29 of them, I opened up my emulator to confirm my suspicions (turned out I was wrong on two of them). Already being ingame, I decided to "briefly" check out some other levels, and quickly got up to 36 before deciding it was Lunar Magic time. Using LM, I found the location of #20, #27 and #33, but of course, was still dumbfounded by #9.... ready to give up, I stared at the picture for another few minutes... until I realized what was going on.
(Sneaky you, you changed the collision of vanilla tiles to make this one possible, don't think I didn't realize!)

Fun way to revisit the vanilla levels and kill two or three hours.
My only points of criticism would be that for some of the ones where you're expected to go to an enemies spawning location, the actual position where that enemy spawned can be rather counterintuitive (i.e. it's further to the right than you'd expect), and that moon #35 felt like it was a bit too precise.
Also, why is one spiny on #18 a different color? Seems inconsistent with the other clues.

do you think you could give me a hint on 20 and 24? those are the last 2 i have, and i'm completely stumped

great hack btw
