Re: mario 3 ascetic.
I guess it's because i always used whistles to skip worlds i'd already beaten as a kid, but i'm really surprised how many P-wings the game gives you if you just play through everything. I thought they were significantly more rare.

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
Incidentally, the Super Mario Bros. 3 Player's Guide refers to the two plants sharing an intimate moment in the second World 7 fortress as "Piranha Plant Squeeze Play". This phrase has also taken firm root within my brain, wrapping its tendrils amongst the grooves of my brain, never again to loosen its hold.

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
one-level video? the tank is an autoscroller with lots of bombs that stick around and explode for points, that's gotta be one of the toughest stages in the game for this challenge.

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
plant level that is theoretically beatable without points: item used to skip it
tank level that is impossible to beat without points: item not used to skip it

Well it is a decent hack but sometime its just too repetitif there no level that actually pop in your face and your like oh yeah that level they all ressemble themselves and just monster along the way.

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
photoshop level: 0.1 at least compared to the glorious one above.
i dont think 3 hits doesnt help that much if you play to beat this legit because theres multiple bomb section. it will help on the ship stage at least. if raocow is using savewarp, then item doesnt make a difference imo

The item in question is a cloud.

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
you can't use a cloud to skip these kinds of 'sprite' levels sadly, otherwise I'd have done it

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
I do now wonder how the final tank level is going to go. IIRC that level is Bob-Omb Overload.
A good thing none of those levels end with a Lakitu Dance!

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
Pretty sure you can only use a cloud in 8-1 and 8-2 and that is IT. Everything else in this world is designed to work against those tools.
Re: mario 3 ascetic.
RaoTASes when?
Also I noticed this in the video which I just cannot unsee. For some reason the bottom log on every turret has no border between the log and pipe.

Does the music box work on them? I've never even thought about trying it before so I genuinely have no idea.
Re: mario 3 ascetic.
The comments on the video indicated music boxes don't work either.
Re: mario 3 ascetic.
Good to know then. I guess that these levels must act like the end of world airship does with the exception of not moving when you die.
Re: mario 3 ascetic.
Is that turret a rabbit or a duck?

Re: mario 3 ascetic.
My only disappointment with this series was that we never got to see our wandering monk turn into the thematically appropriate statue
What a lovely experiment overall, looks like the only hard block is 8-Tank and even that might be doable at TAS levels. There's some soft blocks with hammer bro pathing, but those are definitely avoidable, and expert fire flower usage can also avoid the otherwise-mandatory Boom-Boom boss points. True karmaless Mario 3 may, just barely, be possible.

Poor Sanzang. His journey finally comes to an end, only for him to discover he was actually traveling to the east the whole time.
