Mario Seasons is an unfinshed hack by Dahrk Daiz.  It was abandoned early 
in development as Dahrk Daiz decided to change to the SMB3 engine and
eventrually go on create Mario Adventure.  Some of the ideas in Mario Adventure 
like changing weather are also present in this hack.  Mario Seasons features 9 
colorful levels with animation, a new power up and a new enemy.       

The original release does not work properly on most emulators due to improper 
mapper implementation.  This has been corrected and tested on three emulators 
(Mesen, puNES and FCEUX) as well as a PowerPak flash cart.

This package contains 3 patch files:

Mario_Seasons-unmodified.ips  -  The original, unmodified game.  It does not run 
                                 properly on most modern emulators due to 
                                 improper mapper implementation.
                                 
Mario_Seasons-fixed.ips       -  Fixes the mapper problems but no other changes.
                                 
Mario_Seasons-enhanced.ips    -  Gives the game a simple title screen and 
                                 fixes some minor graphic issues.  Also start
                                 with 5 lives instead of 3.
