It’s a fully-fledged game, with 40 courses and eight worlds
If you ever wanted to play a theoreticalSuper Mario Bros. 5, you can, in this fan-created version by way ofSuper Mario Maker 2.
Over on Twitter, super-creator Metroid Mike 64 unleashed their finished project out into the world:Super Mario Bros. 5. As Mike puts it, they’ve been “working toward this moment since 2015,” aiming to “create a classicMariogame that plays as if Nintendo created it themselves.” To that end, it’ll featureeight worlds,with40 full courses(24 from theSuper Mario Worldarchetype, 14 fromMario 3, and two courses fromSuper Mario Bros.). The idea was to give the entire project a “classic” feel.
Going even further with that philosophy, Metroid Mike’s aim isn’t to “troll or purposely try and kill you,” but rather to ease you into level designs that feel like they’re organically present in a prior classicMariogame. While there’s plenty of room for “instant/death can you even beat this”Mario Makerdesigns, I appreciate the core focus here; as it’ll make it even easier to pick up and play from a general audience standpoint. Going a step further than that, Metroid Mike added in world maps with “branching paths,” as well as some light puzzles.
This is an extremely “weekend plans set” situation. Want in? Just plug the below ID intoSuper Mario Maker 2.

So I urge you to dust off your copy of Super Mario Maker 2 and try out my Super World. I’ve poured lots of blood, sweat and tears into this over the past 7 years. I hope you enjoy this game as much as I have.Maker ID: 0G9-XN4-FNFpic.twitter.com/V2KPzak7Hk
