Okay, so this is a Super Mario World ROM hack—one of those fan-made mods that tweaks the original game. The name's a mouthful, but it's basically Mario World with new levels, some weird power-ups, and these bird-themed artifacts scattered around. Demo 2 feels more polished than the first one, with tighter level design and fewer random difficulty spikes.

You start off in a familiar-looking overworld, but things get weird fast—like, there’s a feather power-up that lets you glide, but it’s way floatier than the cape. Some of the hidden exits lead to these surreal bonus areas with trippy backgrounds. Not all of it works perfectly (a couple of the new enemies just kinda stand there), but the creativity makes up for it. If you’ve played SMW to death, this at least feels fresh.

It’s still a demo, so don’t expect a full game’s worth of content. But for a fan project, it’s got charm.
