+==============================================+==========+
Back in September, I decided to take up another project in order to
procrastinate on O.J. Pro-Am some more. However, the project itself didn't
really get worked on until December.

+-------------------------+
| Target ROM and Patching |
+-------------------------+
"Mario Bros. (World).nes" is the target ROM or whatever.

  MD5: 8D8E0B86DD870302BF4A994E76C55C83
SHA-1: 9286A2DB471D51713E9B75E68B47FFBF11E2D40B

This is distributed as an xdelta patch and I already know everyone who didn't
download and patch Lesbian Tennis 2015 is saying "what the fuck is an xdelta patch"

basically since I did a few things, making an IPS patch of this hack is out
of the question:
1) added more PRG-ROM
2) data/code has been shifted since I worked from a disassembly

I only tried to make an IPS this time, but it was as big as the original ROM,
so fuck that shit.

you can find utilities to apply this patch here:

| Story (?) |
+-----------+
The Stoner Brothers, Marco and Louie, set out to beat up turtles, flies,
and malfunctioning lighters in the name of grabbing weed. Fuck if I know.

+-------------------+
| Quick Change List |
+-------------------+
* Expanded to 32K of PRG-ROM
* New logo and title screen changes
* Various graphic, palette, and text changes

+--------------------+
| In-Depth Changelog |
+--------------------+
* PRG-ROM is now 32K (was 16K). Still an NROM game.
  Mostly a waste of space, since the thing I expanded the ROM for isn't in
  the final version of the hack. Ah well, fuck it. No sense in removing it.

* Most of the graphics have been fucked with in some form.
 * Mario and Luigi now smoke blunts during the game
 * Coins are now pot leaves
 * Life indicators are now blunts
 * "TOP" changed to "POT"; ohohoh I'm so clever
 * Crab enemy is now a lighter
 * Sliding icicle is now a bong with ice cubes
 * POW block is now a gravity bong
 * Spawn platform is now a cloud
 * All platforms/surfaces have new graphics
 * Bonus stage counter frame changed
 * Title screen cursor is now a pot leaf
 * "P=" changed into a lit joint
 * Pipes taken from the upgraded Mario Bros. (Euro ver.)

* Text too.
 * Game A is now known as "Mellow"/"Chill"
 * Game B is now known as "Blazed"/"Blaze"
 * Rounds are now Blunts
 * "Test your skill" is now " Grab the weed "
 * Mario is Marco, Luigi is Louie

* Oh, and some palette changes as well.
 * Gameplay palette 4 (was ugly blue/purple) is better
 * Player 1's life blunts use palette 3 now
 * Title screen palette changes
   (including two new sprite palettes that were meant for a scrapped feature)

* This in-depth changelog sucks!
 * Moved the title screen cursor 1px up and 4px to the right
 * Changed attribute near Player 2's score indicator
 * Changed attribute of "POT" score indicator
 * Some other things I'm probably missing.

+---------+
| Enemies |
+---------+
* 'Tarded Turtle
  It was an attempt. Unchanged from the original.

* Psycho Lighter
  A malfunctioning lighter that has become sentient. Takes two hits to flip over.

* Mexican Jumping Fly
  Hops around like a god damn nuisance. Unchanged from the original.

* Ice Bong
  Kill it before it spills and ices over the floor!

+--------+
| Source |
+--------+
I decided to release the source code to this, because why the fuck not.
You'll need asm6 (or asm6f if you want to use the -n option)

+--------+
| Thanks |
+--------+
* Dr. Floppy (figuring out the damned sprite attribute for the moving coin)
* tettsui77 (gravity bong idea)
* Baddesthacks.net community
* Nintendo, for the newer pipe graphics

alright, that's all I have for this hack. Expect a "Stoner Bros. Plus" in
the future, with a few things that got cut near the end of development.

maybe I'll get off my ass and finish O.J. Pro-Am next.
it sure has been long enough.
