"I was hoping I'd jump right there and get damaged" his mind is beyond my comprehension

[@EebstertheGreat]

At 11:43 if you watch closely (or go frame-by-frame), during the powerup animation, Mario briefly turns into a glitched version of the dying Mario sprite.

[@Kosmicd12]

yeah that's the game trying to handle small mario crouching

[@konversion]

Haha, I saw that as well. I was like, "wait a minute; what was that?!"

[@Amiculi]

7:08 Ah yes, the deepest Kosmic lore. The Mushroom Retainers are responsible for keeping all those Shiny Happy Teeth straight, that's why there's always so many of them in perfect lines still, the Mushroom Retainers. I hope to someday learn about the Mushroom Orthodontist who initially installed the Mushroom Braces that originally aligned them though.

[@computersocsci]

19:26 Mama mia! There's nothing here!

[@quinn7894]

15:14 Kosmic performs Flagpole Glitch in a romhack.

[@Typical.Anomaly]

15:15 That wasn't even clutch- it was instinct.

[@Nob1ej0n]

Wow, multiple 8000 kicks, small fire, big-little Mario death to Bowser, wall glitch through firebar, intentional hidden block wall glitches, and flag pole glitch. What a Romhack Wednesday this was!

[@PierceArner]

3:12 - A rare moment of Kosmic _not_ immediately knowing how a wall clip works & explaining it. Truly this hack brought the most unexpected surprises.

[@arthurcurry4941]

Romhack Thursday! Let's go!

[@kubzer0]

Jumping straight into firebar was the best galaxy brain move ever

[@ibookboyuk]

I really enjoyed watching you play a hack with what looks like vanilla physics. Nice one for getting your new moves.

[@EebstertheGreat]

1:53 It's not that the mushroom is transparent, it's that while the mushroom is emerging from the block, it's behind the layer the blocks are on. Presumably then the stars are on the same layer as the ? blocks, or on a layer in front of them. Regardless, as soon as the mushroom is fully out of the block, it pops in front of the stars. At 12:29 you see it again with the mushroom coming up behind the bars in the window.

[@cornbreadbutcringey5723]

they're on the same layer. the NES only has layers for sprites, tiles, and the background color

[@-jadepink-500]

“Mamma mia! There is nothing here!” Is the best castle quote I’ve seen so far XD

[@TransRoofKorean]

this made me realize I kinda want the full compilation of Kosmic's romhack "I've never gotten to do this before!" examples can we get people timestamping each time he does a "first" ??

[@jeffbeyer43]

0:35 True fans know what's about to happen (8,000 shell kick) My Brain - Kosmic is gonna keep this Fire Flower until Bowser then get small fire in world 2. Swing and a miss over here! EDIT He did get small fire in 2-2 lol

[@Hyakurai84]

Yay romhack Wednesday* ! But oh no where's the exciting conclusion of the Chaos Edition video?

[@lamenwatch1877]

5:34 😂 EDIT: 10:53 This was just too perfect.

[@ZX3000GT1]

It's Romhack Fridays for me 'cause *TIMEZONE*

[@krzysiek001isplitsecond]

7:40 I've spent hours of my life bouncing koopas.

[@lukahmad5683]

Wow love the design, I like the big castle window in the background

[@benallen895]

bro plays the first just when the sequel comes out

[@Elliasal]

This is quite the delightful rom hack I gotta say!

[@nakano15]

I'm disappointed that the hack doesn't have the Starlight Zone music from Sonic the Hedgehog.

[@narcopsy]

Sonic and Mario together?! Impossible

[@nakano15]

Nah, only the music. Beside that has happened before.

[@MathIguess]

Romhack Thwednesday, yay :D

[@themotivator2587]

You bring my childhood into the modern age. A glimmer of happiness. I am thankful.

[@607]

Thanks for sharing your analysis of the castle end sequences! I love how he shows Nintendo's copyright, despite breaching it. :P

[@zbou23]

The bit about finding mushroom retainers making more sense canonically than Bowser guarding nothing (6:34) was supurb, thank you lol

[@BagOfMagicFood]

"I've only done this once before."

[@kurodaharu9819]

Am I the only one who consistently gets heavy ASMR tingles from Kosmic's voice? I swear he's better than people who do it professionally

[@mikeprado30]

I get that combo from his laughing 😁

[@e7nn]

This episode has heavy Bob Ross vibes yeah, he's just enjoying himself calmly its nice

[@ThePharphis]

Yo that last level was great

[@DouglasFish]

Honestly, this content is pretty great

[@Barel.m]

Now, this is something I love to see. "Normal" Mario levels, kinda hard but not impossible. Neat.

[@PatJamma]

Wednesdays hit a little different when watched at 12:44am on a Saturday.

[@TheLoginatoR]

there's a sequel to this hack called Starlight Mario: Underworld i think you'll enjoy it

[@nicholas3354]

Did yall see that pipe above the pink level? YOU CAN"T GO IN IT! Best romhack video ever.

[@CaptainMangles]

Great upload today Kosmic, I hope you're doing well today

[@fluffycritter]

Ninji and Birdo are two more fun things from Doki Doki Panic.

[@samviolet398]

6:35 SORRY NOTHING

[@siraxlrose5659]

1:51 kosmic, my man, the mushroom wasn't transparent. It was in the background layer 😂

[@JakeRazorClawson]

Kosmic went above and beyond the call of gaming in this vid including funnier than usual commentary, total excellence 👏 🌠 🌌

[@Owna]

0:37 "True fans know what's about to happen" What, you're going to get a TEN COIN BLOCK?! lol

[@thederpyunicorn306]

I love this hack so much, it's really fun

[@ImPhynsa]

You should check out the sequel called Starlight Mario Underworld, it's also really good

[@robertm5110]

I knew what he was going to do! I’m a true fan :)

[@urmomryleigh4597]

just in case you play this hack, here are the infinite 1up tricks 1-2 (Buzzy Beetle on a brick stair) 1-3 (Koopa on stuck on a brick) 2-3 (Paratroopa flying over a brick next to the pipe)

[@cornbreadbutcringey5723]

is it just me, or does bowser in this hack look like movie bowser? or i guess, more accurately, movie bowser looks like bowser in this hack

[@budderk1305]

I can't help it sometimes. This clip,... this clap was made for me !! drr drr drrrr

[@MaxOakland]

I’m making a rom hack where you can hit a multi coin block on a falling platform!

[@-Keith-]

Wait, you did an 8k buzzy beetle kick without a celebration? Those have to be really rare.

[@Boooo]

Yo, kosmic knows what pikmin is

[@SUPERFunStick]

ROM hacks aren't illegal in the US it's just that Nintendo will sue the pants off of anybody who even attempts to make a Mario doodle

[@MediaSubliminal]

Have you ever played 'Journey to the West' smb1 hack? It's pretty new; made by someone going by the name of Inkbox in 2022. So, yeah, pretty new. It's one of the best hacks I have ever played. And I've played a ton of them. On a regular game, you cycle through 4 different characters, a monk, a bird,(EDIT: Maybe it's a monkey? or a tanooki suit?) a couple others things (EDIT: a friar and a guy with pointy ears?) that I'm not sure what they are exactly; and have infinite lives. (EDIT: their powerups all look different.) It's a complete hack and is extremely refined. One of my favorites.

[@ThomasLinkon]

Oh wow, it's amazing that someone made a hack about this. Journey to the West is one of the most known piece of traditional Chinese Literature. The characters are a Monk, Son Wukong (The Monkey King, which served as inspiration for Goku and many other characters), a Pig-Monster and an Ogre Friar. Also, it seems like Kosmic played it earlier this year, so thanks for pointing me to more content!

[@SatoSere4ever_8300]

He did

[@konversion]

Do you normally stream on Tuesdays on Twitch? I've slowly been getting comfortable with that platform after some close friends started DJing on there so I've started following gaming KZbinrs that also stream on Twitch. It's been fun interacting in the chats over there.

[@petr_pro]

I watched this on stream

[@Alex_Off-Beat]

I want to take a drink everytime Kosmic throws for content and/or gets hit by something easily avoidable but I would've died of alcohol poisoning like 30 Romhack Wednesdays ago if I did 🤣

[@krocodile55]

I really want to know how hidden blocks work in smb

[@EebstertheGreat]

I'm not sure exactly how it works, but some of the collision logic only checks if you are inside a block, not whether that block is visible or invisible. So basically, if you are partially inside an invisible block, you can clip through walls, because you are already colliding with a wall. In the case of one-tile gaps, you fall through because you don't get the usual corner boost you need to get back up after falling into the gap. (While walking over air, you fall slightly, but when you hit the ledge on the other side, you are high enough that it normally automatically pushes Mario back up, letting you walk over one-tile gaps. But if you don't hit the ledge, because you're already colliding with a wall, then you just fall and die.)
