The Scariest Mario Game Never Made

When one of my viewers suggested I play a recently-released horror-themed Mario 64 romhack, I was skeptical, but interested.
I had absolutely no idea what I was getting into.
There is Nothing Behind the Castle is unlike anything I have ever experienced. Even in the often-confounding world of romhacks, there's really nothing else like it.
Eh, I guess it's kinda just a B3313 ripoff.

The "L is real 2401" star is weird because one more thing that happend is that 24 years and 1 month after mario 64 relased, data miners found that Luigi was planed to be originally in the game but was scrapped.

When you think about it, what DOES "nothing" look like?

[@theftking]

@@red-shroom1004I mean vision is already probably very subjective to humans/mammals/etc. so it's hard to know what anything truly _looks like._ I suspect that true nothing is not just an infinite blackness, but rather something so oblivious that even the notion of darkness does not exist.

[@comic-boi]

nah

[@Bamb1i_Starts]

Thank you theft King.

[@malrikstidham75]

I think what this is trying to say is, in a different universe, video game characters have consciousness, but they must see something wrong in their world in order to unlock that consciousness, and the sheer fact that a video game, on the outside, looks like a fun adventure, but on the inside, is a nightmare-fueled prison is terrifying. And, if my theory is correct, than any video game in that universe, the main character (or a side character, enemy, etc.) can see what is wrong with their world and realize there is no escape. Over time, slowly realizing that they are being put in the same loop over and over again, to play through levels, kill enemies, get more supplies, get upgrades, over and over again. The sheer thought of that makes my blood run cold.

[@theftking]

How do you know it isn't like that in _our_ universe?

It's almost like nobody actually cares about that crap as long as your latest video is a banger. That said, I have no anger towards Indigo Park. Being a critic who is personally invested in their reviews is a terrible idea that always ends in disaster. You show up, give your thoughts, and leave.
