* CriticalResearchFailure: ProtonJon's "ZERO SECONDS?" indicates he forgot that that's actually in the ''original'' Super Mario World; the time doesn't display until the castle/ghost house is entered.

You can get all three hacks (as well as the creator's Pokëmon hack) [[https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=032864261776C9F9&id=32864261776C9F9!105 here.]]

* CouchGag: Each of the three games have variations on the opening Thwomp trap pictured above. The first game positions it so that you won't die unless you jump, the second game inverts this (you have to jump in the right spot to activate an invisible block that stops the Thwomp from hitting you), and the third game puts a pit below you (though, like the first game, the text box will pop up before you fall off the screen).

* YankTheDogsChain: The reward for beating the Special World in the first game is a Feather, so you can actually avoid the OneHitPointWonder rule... only it's stuck in a place that is impossible to escape, since the blocks are too high for Mario to jump over.
** That is if [[spoiler: you didn't bother going through the goalpost first, going back to the level, and exiting out (Start then Select) after getting it, then it becomes an easy Feather farm.]]

* YankTheDogsChain: The reward for beating the Special World in the first game is a Feather, so you can actually avoid the OneHitPointWonder rule... Only it's stuck in a place that you can't reach without making the level UnwinnableByDesign.

* TheUnexpected: The third game ends with [[spoiler:a brand new boss battle against Bowser, complete with music from the ''[[VideoGameRemake All-Stars]]'' version of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'']].

An insanely difficult GameMod of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', '''Kaizo Mario World''' (literally, "Hacked" or "Remodeled" Mario World) is well known for being the TropeCodifier of the PlatformHell genre (well eclipsing the popularity of earlier examples such as ''Jinsei Owata no Daibouken'' and the then-unnamed ''Super Mario Forever''), and for being the game that launched a lot of [[LetsPlay LPers]]' careers on Website/YouTube.

* VideogameRemake: ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fs1L5Pix-gM Kaizo Mario Advance 2]]''. How shall the gameplay of Luigi from the GBA version work with these levels?

* ShoutOut: The third level of the first game is called Cerulean Cave, a reference to a location in ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''.
* YankTheDogsChain: The reward for beating the Special World in the first game is a Feather, so you can actually avoid the OneHitPointWonder rule... Only it's stuck in a place that you can't reach without making the level {{Unwinnable}}.

An insanely difficult GameMod of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', '''Kaizo Mario World''' (literally, "Hacked Mario World", but also translated as "Asshole Mario World") is well known for being the TropeCodifier of the PlatformHell genre (well eclipsing the popularity of earlier examples such as ''Jinsei Owata no Daibouken'' and the then-unnamed ''Super Mario Forever''), and for being the game that launched a lot of [[LetsPlay LPers]]' careers on Website/YouTube.

You can get the original Kaizo Mario World [[http://bin.smwcentral.net/14853/Kaizo_Mario_World.zip here]] and Kaizo Mario World 2 [[http://bin.smwcentral.net/14863/Kaizo_Mario_World_2.zip here]]. Kaizo Mario World 3 has not been released to the public as of yet.

There was also a sequel, ''Kaizo Mario World 2'', which was more of the same, with new levels and boss battles. There have also been a few unofficial sequels, although none have gained the popularity of the originals. In late 2012, ''Kaizo Mario World 3'' has been made.

* BigBoosHaunt: The ghost houses are a sadistic homage to the already frustrating and labyrinthine ones found in the original. The Big Boo boss [[ThatOneBoss is made ridiculously hard.]]

* GrimyWater: Gray water = [[ProtonJon DEATH WATER]]

* HardLevelsEasyBosses: Compared to the hell that's come before, [[spoiler:Invisible Bowser]] is relatively easy. [[spoiler:Underwater Bowser]] is another cakewalk.
* HelpfulMook: Accidentally Assisting flavor. See Cranium Ride. "[[ProtonJon Move FASTER, Pokey!]]"

* InvisibleBlock: Infamously. The reaction to these by [[ProtonJon a certain LPer]] is probably why they show up so much in imitators.

** [[ProtonJon YoshiiIII-- thatdidn'twork.]]

* OhCrap: Expect to say this at just about every new obstacle.

!!Tropes Used by KaizoMarioWorld:

* ShoutOut: The third level of the first game is called Cerulean Cave, a reference to a location in Pokemon.

An insanely difficult GameMod of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', '''Kaizo Mario World''' (literally, "Hacked Mario World", but also translated as "Asshole Mario World") is well known for being the TropeCodifier of the PlatformHell genre (well eclipsing the popularity of earlier examples such as ''Jinsei Owata no Daibouken'' and the then-unnamed ''Super Mario Forever''), and for being the game that launched a lot of [[LetsPlay LPers]]' careers on YouTube.

The whole thing is rumored to have started as a simple ''Mario World'' hack made by a Japanese internet user to challenge their friend, and by some unknown stroke of luck, was found and [[LetsPlay LPed]] by a team of SomethingAwful [=LPers=] as 'Asshole Mario World', based off the difficulty. The popularity of these original playthroughs spread across the internet, causing a lot more people to play the game. The game is pretty much also responsible for the wave of "super difficult" PlatformHell ''Mario World'' hacks that have been released, including most on the trope page in question, and those designed specifically to be played by commentators on YouTube for the frustration of the player in question.

* BreatherLevel: The underwater level in the first game. Still difficult, though.

*** GoshDangItToHeck: Except with SirRonLionHeart.

Welcome to Hell.

* GrimyWater: Purple water = DEATH WATER

Similar to ''Super Kusottare World'' ("kusottare" is Japanese for "asshole") and ''Super Tabarnak World'' ("tabarnak!" is a religious Quebecois swear). Compare to ''IWannaBeTheGuy''.

* [=~Let's Play~=]: What made it famous, and the purpose of most of the imitators.
