Ultimate Mario Bros.

By: Synneth Relmn

Classic Mario Bros. action in a single player adventure mode and online multiplayer modes. With the help of Toad, Mario must discover the source of the sewer monsters, and defeat the man responsible!

UPDATE: Wow, I cannot believe that this has been up for almost five years now, and is still getting downloads! This game was mostly developed when I was a lowly junior high/high school student, but even today it's probably my best work of programming. Peaked at age 17: how's that for depressing?

Anyway, since five years is a lifetime in computing, I figured I should point out some information that will be helpful to anyone wanting to play this product of my wasted youth on a recent platform.

- This game requires a DLL to run that is no longer included on Windows Vista or newer. It is called d3drm.dll, and it is available at (surprise) http://www.d3drmdll.com/. Just download it and plunk it into your System32 or SysWOW64 directory.
- The music has minor issues on Windows XP or newer, which are generally limited to longer loading times and/or split-second freezes where the music track loops. The game recommends that you disable the music if these issues get too bad, but the MIDI music really is a big part of the cheesy charm for this game, so don't do it unless you have to.
- Netplay may be tricky to get to work. Direct TCP/IP is the only option that stands a chance at working nowadays, so make sure everyone knows the host's IP address before embarking.
- This isn't exactly computer-related, but several of the game's secrets are alluded to in the Readme file. So read it!

UPDATE 2: I never expected this game to be compatible forever, but it IS in fact compatible with Windows 8 (and all previous Windows versions) if you download the DLL file mentioned earlier. The link I gave originally may not work any more, but the file "d3drm.dll" should be easily searchable and downloadable. I hope to update this file with a ZIP that already contains the required files soon.

I can no longer make meaningful changes to the source code, as it is quite cryptic to me now and I have actually lost the license to the compiler. It is in a very obscure BASIC-based proprietary format, as anyone who dares to check out the .dba source file in the ZIP file will know. I attempted to port it to the successor compiler once, but my code relied on so many idiosynchrosies of the original compiler that no port attempt could ever work.

This was supposed to be the final version of this software, but I have even discovered bugs in it now. The Freezie is an enemy that was in the original Mario Bros. games and was going to be in mine, but I never programmed it in. However, I saw it appear, and you may see it too. It behaves much like the real Freezie, yet it never actually freezes the floors it is on. I had thought I killed every bug when I released the final version, but I suppose some bugs always slip through...Regardless, it is out of my hands now.

Admin Note: May contains swearing.

It's suprising to find LOZ: Link's Awaking music in such a game as this. And I just found this by going through the music folder, which has midis. Yes, actual midis. Actual working midis.

i would just have to say, this is one heck of a good game on mfgg, we need to see more good games like this, dark basic does make good games that's 100% correct, I just don't use it because it's programming with coding and language and that stuff, I advise you to keep updating :)

It might be from 2005, but this game has held up quite nicely. You might want to post a link to the newest version on the forums as well.

Oh my god! I remember playing this one time several years ago, loved it, changed computers and then never found it again. I didn't know it was in this website, i'm so happy that I discovered it in here!
