One day a mysterious black pipe suddenly appeared in the Mushroom Kingdom, in front of the Toadstool Castle. Mario decided to explore inside it, and he was teleported to an unknown island called Full Moon Island. Little did he know that there wasn't any way back... apparently. Other people were trapped there, so he began to roam around in search of an escape.
Thanks for downloading Quest on Full Moon Island v1.2!
I started this hack 3 years ago, and now it's finally completed. It's not very long (32 levels excluding houses and bonus levels), I tried to make every level unique, with few puzzles here and there and lots of platforming. Please, send me a PM if you find a bug, and I'll try to fix it.
The first version of this hack was released the 8th May 2011. The v1.2 was released the 15th October 2011, and it's fully compatible with every emulator to date (up to BSNES v082)*.
* It's suggested to play it with ZSNES. With Snes9X and BSNES there may be some sprite flickering (mostly in busiest levels such as Azure Peak, Eternal Forest, Muncher's Vengeance, Eternal Castle, Ol' Rusty Boat and specially Eternal Rain). If you want the best compatibility you may want to play the v1.0, without HDMA and other effects. Both version are fully playable anyway.
- How to play -
This is a Super Mario World hack. You need the rom of the original game, an emulator (such as ZSNES, Snes9X or BSNES) and Lunar IPS.
Open the patch "Quest on Full Moon Island v1.2.ips" with Lunar IPS and apply it to Super Mario World, then play it with your favourite emulator.
Everything you need (apart from the rom, use Google to find it) can be found in the Tools section of SMW Central:
