Hack-specific Options

1.0

Logic is adjusted for playing on version 1.0 of Star Road

Tricks

Reasonable

Course 1 In the Side of the Mountain without wallkick

Needs: |Long Jump| or |Jump|

You can fall off the side of the mountain to skip the short wallkick section. You need Jump or Long Jump to get across the gap

Course 1 Smash the Chain Chomps Rocks without Ground Pounds

Needs: Any jump or |Dive|

The rocks have bad collision and you can easily clip through just by walking around them a bit

Course 2 Past Opening Platforms With Long Jump

Needs: |Long Jump|

You can't long jump up the platforms but you can go down the other path and long jump down to the platform path pretty easily

Obscure

Common: Wallkicking from a backflip

Needs: |Backflip| and |Wallkick|

Occurs often in various places, so it would be excessive to list all the occurances of this in this document, considering they are also usually where you wallkick with other moves normally.

Enter Mushroom Mountain Town Without Jumps

Needs: Nothing

Jump from the water to the tree, and jump from the tree into Mushroom Mountain Town. You can jump off of both without the actual Jump item.

Overworld 1 Toad with Kicks, Punches, and Jump

Needs: |Kick| and |Punch| and |Jump|

Kick up the slope next to Mushroom Mountain Town, and when you get near the top of the slope, jump. This requires the jump as otherwise you get stuck on some collision.

Course 2 The Flying Stepping Stones without Metal Cap

Needs: |Wallkick| and |Long Jump|)

Go to the top of the windmill and long jump to the platform with the star

Course 2 Behind the Underwater Gate without Vanish Cap

Needs: Any jump

You can underwater punch clip through the gate

Course 2 Purple Switch without Wallkick

Needs: |Jump| or |Long Jump| or |Sideflip|

You can lure the fly guy over and jump off of him

Course 3 The Flooded Cave without Long Jump

Needs: Any jump

You can water jump and land on the ledge if you are precise enough. This also skips pushing the block.

Course 3 Metal Cap Star without Metal Cap

Needs: Jump

Jump on the tree between the ruins and the lake. Use it to jump onto the slippery slope and do a slope jump towards the star.

Hard

Enter Course 2 Without Jumps

Needs: (|Slidekick| or |Dive|) and |Wallkick|

Rollout onto the box next to the jar, and fall off the box, wallkick the wall, and enter the jar. Seems easy but it's a bit precise.

Get Overworld 1 Toad with Jump

Needs: |Jump|

Framewalk up the slope next to Mushroom Mountain Town, and when you get near the top of the slope, jump. This requires the jump as otherwise you get stuck on some collision.

Course 3 Tower Stars without Cannon/Owl

Needs: |Triple Jump| and |Wallkick|

Triple jump from the hedge on the slope next to the tower, and jump over. Then use wallkick to get up the tower, and for the owl star do an arch wallkick.

Course 4 Swim into the Flooded Cage without hanging

Needs: ((|Wallkick| or |Shell|) and |Any Jump|)

You can get on top of the hangable ceiling, then wallkick between the hangable ceiling and the left wall.

You can also use the shell mario glitch to get inside the cage and use the shell to get to the star, but the star is in a box that is too high to rollout onto so you need a jump as well.

Course 4 Underwater Maze on earlier acts

You can underwater punch between the box and the right wall and if you do it right you'll downwarp to right before the star

Glitches

Bomb Clips

Course 1 Deep Dive In the Cage with Bob-omb

Needs: Nothing

You don't need to grab the bob-omb, you can just let it push you into the cage if its chasing you and you're in the right position

Major Skips

Bowser 1 without 20 stars

Needs: (|Jump| or |Long Jump|) and |!v1.0|

Jump into the corner of the door and you can clip in. Clip was patched after v1.0.
