This Super Mario 64 mod makes it a battle-royale game!

It seems that Super Mario 64 actually does work pretty well as a battle-royale video game, and Kaze Emanuar has proved that with his new mod.

The above video comes from YouTuber Kaze Emanuar, who has linked every Super Mario 64 map together into a single open world. Each game starts as Mario falls from the sky, where the player can guide him to any location they choose. From there, Mario navigates between regions by walking to them, using a cannon, or activating a Wing Cap. The Wing Cap is powered by coins, making it necessary for the player to collect as many as possible to increase the range of travel.

The mod is still in single-player and joining all Super Mario 64 levels into a shared world has made a good battle-royale map. Emanuar has clearly put some thought into how each region relates to the others, and there’s a genuine thrill in watching Mario move from one location on the map to another.

Other than multiplayer, what would the next step in a Battle Royale Mario game be? Perhaps one could make use of the capture system from Super Mario Odyssey? Or maybe something really different from other battle-royale games...
