Mario escaped Bowser’s dream world after the battle between dreams and nightmares, restoring peace to the real world and eliminating nightmares. Mario faces another dream: a green comet has fled, scattering green stars across dream and nightmare worlds. Mario must now finally find these treasures.
Will Mario enjoy his dream or fear another nightmare?
LinCrash & StanFuzz’s Mario’s Nightmare 64: Green Dream ROM Hack is massive. It uses Green Stars from Super Mario Galaxy 2 in tricky locations in existing levels, extending Apioeus’ Mario’s Nightmare 64.
Instead of 140 stars, this game has 130 new stars that unlock a special reward. Quality of life improvements include rotary parallel camera, infinite lives, no fall damage, etc.
No prerequisites are needed to start any level, but enemies, hazards, and bosses have been removed. Despite the major change, finding green stars is worth the platforming and sequence breaking skill required.
All courses have the same layout with minor differences. Some level names are changed, implying worlds are now safe for players, but most nightmare worlds remain active.
Signs and NPCs help players find the 6 green stars in the main world.
Cap Switch Palaces and Bowser levels have 3 stars, while secret stages have 7. Cap Switches are enabled by default, but blocks are available.
