Super Mario Bros. contains a very secret debug menu which the developers used for testing the physics and behavior of the game, as well as add fun options while they were bored. One of these options includes an "acid trip" mode which is the first known example of procedural generation in video games and the first usage of the "portal gun", popularized later by Valve's Portal series, and served as the inspiration for the completely unrelated fangame Mari0 (of which this is definitely not a TAS of). The mode is a joke on Mario's famous powerup mushrooms.
Game objectives
- Emulator used: libTAS 1.3.3 i mean uh FCEUX 2.2.2

1-1

5-1

3-1
this level is guranteed to be water but the procedural generation is manipulated to get the optimal level layout
also pipes don't work good
6-1
shoutouts to masterjun for the beginning movement strats, anyway mario builds up speed and them zooms through the randomised 1-1 which was manipulated to contain bowser for maximum entertainment
bullet land
cannons lack collision above the screen which can be used to fling over the entire level
2-1
toad

Masterjun: Hey you took my super important input without asking. Now prepare for the wrath of a judge!
I am thoroughly confused, feel bad, but I'm also entertained. That does sound like a reaction to doing drugs. Fortunately, this game teaches us important life lessons such as:
- Pipes are not for smoking but for warping.
- If you feel yourself getting high, don't worry, gravity still works so your jump will terminate at some point and you will get low again.
- A mushroom person telling you to do drugs is generally a sign that it's already too late.
Rejecting due to including dangerous weaponry such as a gun.
