Pretty neat (I haven't seen this before).

I wonder what it would take to export the code to something we could fiddle with (maybe with a nice .ini file, heh)...

--- Quote ---How to Play With a Gamepad

Super Mario Bros. Crossover was designed to be played with a gamepad. Yes, it can still be played with a keyboard, but I highly recommend using a gamepad of some sort. It is difficult to relive the classic Nintendo experience without one.

The platform that the game runs on, Adobe Flash, does not support gamepads directly. However, you can bypass this limitation by emulating keyboard input through the gamepad. In other words, whenever you press a button on the gamepad, the game will think you are pressing a key on the keyboard. If you have a PC, there is some great free software called JoyToKey that does this for you. If you're on a Mac, you can use the demo version of ControllerMate. You can set your buttons in the game, so it doesn't matter what keys you match the buttons to. If you don't have a gamepad for your PC, I highly recommend using an Xbox 360 controller.

Full Screen Mode

Another limitation of Flash is that it doesn't allow keyboard input while in full screen mode. So if you want to play in full screen, you need some kind of workaround. On a mac, you can set up the "Universal Access" options in "System Preferences" to zoom the screen. That's very easy to use. I'm sure there's something similar on a PC. Or you can always just change your display resolution to something like 800x600 or 640x480 while you're playing and change it back when you're done.

See, with a few workarounds you can pretend you're playing Nintendo. If this isn't detailed enough or you have questions, just ask me. Thank you so much for your interest in my game.

I first played Super Marios as an arcade game (Playchoice) and not on an NES as I was a computer gamer primarily at the time (C64) so for me authentic feel are my good old arcade controls.

Great game!  Wish I could get it on my cab... argh!  Seems like it would be a crazy amount of work to get it cab friendly.

I first played it as Vs Super Mario Bros, then later I played it as Super Skateboard Bros or whatever that hack was called.
