Super Mario 64 Multiplayer: now actually working!

[twocows]

Hey, all! So this was just too cool not to share. Rather than just copy/paste all the info, I'll link my Facebook post on it which has all the relevant details (I made it globally viewable, so you should all be able to see it; feel free to share it elsewhere!).

So here's the tl;dr version. A really cool hacker made a SM64 romhack that lets you play two player with an actual Luigi (not a green Mario recolor). There's a lot of cool stuff that's been fixed from the previous, very buggy version, so I recommend checking it out. You should definitely read through the post I linked, but if you just want to grab it, it's linked in the description section of the dev's official video here:

It's pretty neat stuff. Crazy what is capable for people to create nowadays.

My only gripe would be the shared health, since that isn't many life bars for two people to share. :P

That is quite interesting to see, haha. Like I never imagined that Super Mario 64 can work well as multiiplayer, bu this definitely looks fun. o:

Still, I hope the badger stages aren't too hellish. C:

If health is indeed being shared, I could imagine it to be pretty each to play blame-game, haha. Though, I'm pretty sure it will all be settled at some point, since this only seems to be a beta release. Definitely looks fun! I've wanted to play this game with others in multiplayer for a long, long time, and seeing it become reality is a great feeling.
