17:54 Dude. I think about that CONSTANTLY when I see a super sick hack, I just instinctively go "holy shit if this was around in like 2010 people would be losing their minds over it
The level of quality that SM64 romhacks have reached nowadays is honestly insane. I still think about that reverse quicksand bit from a while ago all the time.
This hack becomes even more sick when you remember that these rom-hack competitions are just supposed to be a fun and entertaining time for the Mario 64 community, so seeing people go this crazy with their hacks in casual competitions is kinda insane I'm just waiting for the day when a popular UA-camr makes a Mario 64 Rom-Hack video, and they end up talking about the many competition hacks that have been made
That’s actually so cool. A Full 3D bullet hell? And with a Rhythm aspect as an icing on top? I truly cannot think of any bucket hell that does something like this, from what I recall they’re all either flat 2D or top down, such a unique concept. I would love to see stuff like this more in the genre!
This is not only the coolest hack I've seen in awhile, but the best artistic work in general that I've seen in a long time. The different gimmicks and layouts of each level, the scoring system, the assets, all on top of the overall music theme. The electric guitar in the coming on along with the saws in the level was a welcome surprise. Quality of gameplay was given thought too with the timer walls and moving blue wall. Simply a beautiful hack that's never boring.
It's definitely really hard, and maybe could have had a few extra coin indicators in a select few spots to make the death wall feel slightly less problematic(namely the start of stage 3), but it's fairly generous overall, It's nowhere near most say Ghost's and Goblins/Metal Slug insanity.
i expected it all to be mario music, when the second level had a hat in time music it was a nice surprise, especially since i was listening to it a few days ago
This is seriously sublime. The Baby Driver level of attention to music and syncing details, the polish in custom animations, the presentation of the level end scoreboard and all of the custom UI elements - this is peak Mario hack content. Massive props to the creator
I've heard about Touhou before, and I like bullet hell games, but when I look up Touhou on Steam I just see a MASSIVE list of like 100 games with Touhou in the title, so I have no idea what are "official" Touhou games, or which one is the first one, or which one is the best one.
@@oatmeal3013 Same. I couldn't quite tell if the lyrics replaced "Sonic" with "Mario". Although since the lyrics are fully custom (which is insane in itself), they probably are.
Still trying to beat it, lol. I have the other games downloaded for me to play after but I still haven’t seen Remilia yet. I’ve only seen Sakuya through continues.

I was watching this and thinking that these music mechanics would be hella fun in a Megaman X game or a sequel mod with Megaman X music and suddenly they hit me with that Storm Eagle remix in the credits! That's damn awesome!
I've never commented before but I just HAD to say that this hack is absolutely incredible, and that's already from watching so many other really really great hacks from this competition, I'm just absolutely blown away. The concept is just so unique and really well executed.
i can't even describe how much i love this hack like there were a lot of hacks in the past that blew me away within the confines of sm64 but this one like it is just so much more the music choices and the great opening cutscene first and foremost (oh yeah and shoutouts to whoever did that little 3d animation with simples face that was funny too) but like this made me realize how much i love this concept of a rhythm based platformer that has its level lenght and obstacles defined by the song and stuff but still is a sandbox like this like its restrictive AND open at the same time just conceptually that blows me away
Music used/remixed in this hack: Prologue (Bowser): UN Owen Was Her - Touhou (0:44) 1st Stage: Bob-omb Battlefield - Mario 64 (2:23) 2nd Stage: Rift Collapse - A Hat in Time (5:13) 3rd Stage: Bowser’s Road - Mario 64 (8:35) Final Boss (Bowser): Metallic Madness Bad Future - Sonic CD (10:43) Credits: Storm Eagle’s Theme - Mega Man X (11:52) Unsure about the very first song in the prologue. Might be Grass Lands 3 from Kirby’s Dream Land 3, definitely Kirby at least.
1:55 This man is so good at both deception and timing, that even after straight up telling me he did the music, I am still not sure if he did or not. Well played, Dad, well fucking played.
I have to big agree with Simple flips here, I was NOT expecting this. Actual mind blowing. That second section had me crying because that's one of my favourite songs and it fit the level SO well. Cheezepin, MrComit, You made music fit the levels so well and it's actually incredible. Godlike hack
Haha, I like that the creators of the hack decided to use an A Hat In Time song. And I especially love the one that they used. However, I wish they didn't choose that level in particular to use the song in. It brings back too many terrible memories of the Deep Sea Time Rift.
@@jimmyjohnjoejr if I ever do the EX boss rush then that means I've probably sold my soul to Satan or something Just getting enough stamps to get there would require some kind of satanic ritual

This one better win for implementing Rift Collapse from A Hat In Time, the greatest game of all time obviously.
I really appreciate that brief reference to “the boys are back in town to kills you”

The second area having A Hat in Time music makes me unreasonably happy :)
Same! It took me a while to recognize it, but it's definitely something from there (one of the rift collapse themes I think?)
I started tearing up immediately, this is one of my all time favourite songs of all time in a Mario 64 romhack and it fits the level SO WELL
Rift Collapse is an absolute banger dude
Ngl I originally thought it was from Wario Land 4 cause of the Silvagunner rip of Hurry Up
Why is no one else talking about Metallic Madness - Bad Future from the Sonic CD Japanese OST at 10:43?
