I love how Mario went through the five stages of grief after he fell off the mountain

For just being another SM64 creepypasta hack, that race start sound scared the piss outta me

12:22

The race music starting and ensuing timer was more terrifying than any jumpscare could be.

the music at the end is haunting, this rom hack seriously gives a sense of hopelessness with the player and definitely represents the term “curiosity killed the cat” to great extent

bro-

the scariest part is when i tried to reinstall the rom after playing, it still starts up with the ending screen

Whenever the sky first turned black, typical elements of the level felt ominous. In particular, running up the mountain and along those walls made it feel like you had a blind spot on the left side of your vision, and man, turning those corners was tense! Great suspense.

This hack is a great example of when you get a feeling that something is wrong but you dont know what is

this to me feels like what depression is like. youre doing more or less the same thing as everyone else, except theres just less life to it. the things that are making others excited arent there for you, and youre just going through the motions. and even in how you can, if you choose to, try to appreciate that at least that you can see the colours and hear the music and wander the landscape, even if the excitement and the finer details arent there, but is it necessarily good to be okay with that when you know how much more there is supposed to be?

I love how most rom hacks try way too hard to be scary, but this one manages to be one of the creepiest rom hacks I’ve came across. There’s something about the eeriness and emptiness that makes it super unsettling

11:55 damn Koopa the Quick really stepping up his game here

Honestly, when I read the name of this hack, I was legit expecting it to be like a mix between Normal Mario Bros. 3 & Bowser's Dank Rave.

Glitch Mario sents Mario to Venezuela

My interpretation is that an iteration of Mario during a previous gameplay remained within a pocket existence after the game has been turned off/reset by the player and because this Mario desired to fulfill the goal of completing the game, it attempted to continue having an adventure in a world that was slowly fading away. It all came to a head when the Mario tried one last time to climb the mountain of Bob-omb Battlefield, a timer began, and the Mario was approached by another glitchy Mario that represented the inevitable descent into oblivion; finally there to claim it so that the next iteration of Mario appear in it's place and start the whole process over again.
