Game Overview

Super Mario World - An SMWC Production feels like someone took your childhood SNES cartridge and sprinkled it with something new. The first few levels trick you into thinking it's the same old game—until you hit a jump that wasn't there before, or stumble into a hidden path that leads somewhere completely unexpected. The fan-made levels have that perfect mix of familiarity and "wait, how do I even get past this?"

What I love is how it keeps the original's physics and charm while throwing curveballs—like that one level where the platforms disappear faster than you remember, or finding Yoshi in places he definitely wasn't before. It's not brutally hard, but it'll make you pause and rethink routes you've had memorized since '91. If you've ever thought "I wish Nintendo made just a few more worlds for this," here's your answer.

Also, whoever designed the secret exits clearly had too much fun—some are downright sneaky. You'll be replaying levels just to see what else you missed.
