This hack was made in inspiration to the amazing man, Barb, otherwise known as Barbarian or BarbarousKing,
a super enjoyable streamer, veteran Mario Kaizo designer, and friend to me. Back in October 2016, Barb
made a Kaizo SMB3 romhack called "Super Kamikaze Bros" and a year later, I beat it, and it showed me
the fun and enjoyability of Kaizo style romhacks. After 128 hours of playtime and 9.1 million points,
I decided to go on my own adventure to create a romhack.

This is a Kaizo romhack, tetering between a difficult enjoyable challenge and curve balls thrown at the player
to keep them on their toes. It also abuses mechanics that may have not been originally designed to be used as
so. This readme will also have some information on some techniques that may be foreign to some players. While
difficult, with enough perseverance, skill building, and dedication, anyone will be able to overcome this!
Even if it takes them 128 hours.

A huge thanks to Barb for supporting a great stream and community and for making Kamikaze bros. Another huge 
thanks to Freakin_ha who was an amazing playtester and helped me polish some rough edges off of the hack. 
Also thanks to Chaos_Composer for making amazing tutorials for smb3 romhack making. And thanks to 
theincrediblepaco, linkdeadx2, and everyone in the kaizo community!




Unique Techniques:

Jumping out of water: Holding UP on the dpad will allow you to jump out of the water easily.

Jumping out of waterfalls: Holding UP on the dpad on the upwards swing of an A button press while holding A
will allow you to exit waterfalls with momentum and upwards height.

Kuribo's Boot: If you run (and not slide) off a platform while in the boot, you will get another jump while in
mid-air.

Slope jumps: Sliding down a slope will build momemtum and allow you to jump higher and further then normally
possible.

Shell jump: Throwing a shell will make it bounce back towards you, allowing you to use it as an enemy
to jump off of to gain height.
