backupdump002 | Epic Superstar Saga Adventure Part 2

Man I've been feeling all angsty lately what is this

BUT I KNOW THE CURE FOR THAT

MORE SUPERSTAR SAGA!

Previous episode

When we last left off, Mario jumped on an Action Block like a douche, causing a crane to lift Luigi into the sky. A crewmate suggested that they use him as lookout. And so they did. YES.

Luigi: OMG

LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU

HIIIIIIII CACKLETTAAAAAAAAAA

I love Fawful

Sweet, sweet like a delicious Tootsie Roll

BOWSER NOOOOO

They boing in concern.

WATCH OUT

HEY HOW YOU DOIN'

Heh, it's weird to see Bowser helping them out.
But yeah, every enemy has their own unique attack, and each attack has a hint telling you whether they're going to attack Mario or Luigi. Although actually some attacks don't have hints at all so you have to really keep your guard up BUT STILL

Also note that he shot two energy balls at me, here. The text color in the "have you readiness for this?!?" line just tells you which brother he attacks first. I always fall for that whenever I replay.

WE'RE GETTIN' TO 'EM

God I love Fawful

Victory!
OR IS IT?

OH GOD

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

CRACKABOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

Mario tried to jump after him at this point but he flew away. CURSE YOU FAWFUL

Here's where the last episode was originally going to leave off. CLIFFHANGER OMG

HAHAHA

Bonk

I like how Mario's pose stays the same

And after babbling at each other, the Mario Bros are back in action! Here's where the game officially starts.
OH I ALMOST FORGOT here's the Stardust Fields theme. And just for fun, here's some voice clips for Mario and Luigi! There's a few missing, but most of them are there. I meant to put these in the last episode and forgot. WOO

THAT'S GOTTA HURT

HI HAMMER BROS
Koopa Tutorials plays here. It might've played during a few of those tutorials in the last episode but I forgot. lol
Also hahah oldschool flag

"Haha, yeeeeeah. Remember when I threw hammers at you and stuff? Man, those were the good ol' days."

WHAT KIND OF SECURITY OFFICERS ARE YOU

Eh, why not.

And so I did!

Ahahahaha

DURRRRRRR

I decided to focus more on jumping and less on taking screenshots

Though the 'B' button I have assigned on my keyboard is right next to the screenshot button, so I was able to get shots of Luigi's AMAZING JUMPING ABILITIES

Okay enough messing around LET'S DO THIS

Wooooo I didn't even try taking screenshots here and just focused on getting by. ~~JUMPROPE~~ CROSSING THE BORDER TAKES HEAVY AMOUNTS OF CONCENTRATION

note the flag

Those bean monsters are gonna getcha

HURRY LET'S GET OUT OF HERE

WOOOOOOO

Moving on, green pipes let you warp around Beanbean Kingdom! However, to warp to a location you have to actually go there and activate the pipe, first, so you can't just run around willy-nilly. WILLY-NILLY. I didn't get much sleep last night.

Hahaha Area 64

INTRUDE INTRUDE INTRUDE INTRUDE

That bug is far too happy.

YEAH here's a Lucky bonus, which I mentioned last time. Those things are great.

HI BOWSER

Boingboingboing

BOWSER'S SO FAT, HIS CEREAL BOWL COMES WITH A LIFEGUARD
WHEN BOWSER SITS AROUND THE HOUSE, HE REALLY SITS AROUND THE HOUSE

Oh it's YOU.

Bowser's angry face kind of looks like Oldbag's

Mario: adfgladjgadg

NO THAT WASN'T WHAT I SAID AT ALL

ALL I WANTED WAS A GLASS OF WATER

WAIT NO DON'T DO IT

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

what the hell TOADSWORTH OMG >O TRAVEL MONEY INDEED

LET'S DO THIS

A+B TO DESTINY

I picked this up sometime during all this nonsense. You'll learn more about Bros. points in a minute.

AAAAAAAAAAA

GO MARIO GO

Took ya a while there

WHICH IS SO USEFUL TRUST ME

SEE THAT? SEE THE HIGH JUMP?

WOO

More like you stand on their head

WEEEEEEEEE

I gotcha.

YADDA YADDA I GOT TO THE TOP

AND YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE FINALLY FREE

This line always cracks me up and I don't know why

They spun around and made the flies zip away one by one but I AIN'T UPLOADIN' ALL THAT NUH UH

HEY LONG TIME NO SEE HOW'S THE WIFE

And everyone reading this sighs

I'm not dead am I

I SHALL

I remember when I first read this I was like OH GOD I DIDN'T MESS UP DID I? I DON'T WANNA START OVER

Past Self: OH GOD OH GOD *button mashing*

PRESS THE BUTTON GOD GET ON WITH IT ALREADY

12 damage is actually pretty hardcore at this point in the game.

gasp

More damage, in other words.

I never really noticed the difference between Normal and Advanced commands, but then again I also didn't pay much attention so

STOP YOUR EYE-ROLLING OUT THERE

The end fo reelz

FAREWELL

NO LUIGI STOP BEING STUNNED

NO LUIGI

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

I swear to god

Anyway back to the plot, finally. SO MANY TUTORIALS. I would've just skipped tutorials entirely, but some of the explanations are funny

FAT ATTACK
Boss Battle music! I've always really liked this song for some reason.

Except I can EASILY JUMP OVER THEM

After a bit of battling.

From here on he throws one rock at each brother, and sometimes the rocks will bounce and try to trick you into trying to jump over them, when they actually just go over your head if you stand still. He also decides to scream out NYEEEEEEECK every time he attacks.

And of course, I keep trying to jump when I should just stand, so I kept getting damaged. AT LEAST IT GIVES ME A CHANCE TO SHOW YOU THE MUSHROOM-EATING ANIMATION
