Trivia[]

  • This hack was created in only 12 hours.
  • Even though the playable character is Rosalina, she uses Peach's voice clips. Additionally, the Mario head icon is replaced by a Peach head icon.
  • The title screen sign has been replaced with a cropped, pixelated version of an obscene work of fan art depicting Rosalina.
  • Outside the castle, a pipe has been added; entering it takes the player directly to the "The End" image.
  • Dying or falling off the edge of any of the game's stages simply brings the player to the next stage, in the following order: Music Land, Purple Rave Galaxy, Snow Star Mountain, Le Bowser's Dank Wonderland.
  • Dying actually causes the game to softlock; since the game is programmed to bring Rosalina to the next stage, and not to the castle, she is unable to lose any lives or be healed and will continue dying every time a level is entered. This will persist until the game is reset. Dying outside the castle, however, will not trigger this effect.
  • The King Bob-omb battle in Music Land is programmed to end after 69 throws; however, the Star immediately moves to a location high above the stage that is impossible to reach.
  • The Rosalina was found as of july 3rd of 2022
