Silver Stars of Wisdom is a major ROM hack with 159 Stars created by MorningStorm. This was made in the vision of a extreme kaizo hack containing mixed styles from past major meme hacks, notably STUPID BALLZ 2.5. Additionally, it features 10 guest Star levels from the SM64 ROM hack Community with original creativity and new twists in the same difficulty curve.
Plot[]
Wisdom.
The word is of that same goal that gets harder for the ones escaping the evil realm of reality, and Mario is to answer that.
Will he succeed in all glory or fall into despair and misery?
