The Something series is a Super Mario World Rom Hack series by Yogui. The first game, Something, stars Mario and the second game, Something Else, stars Luigi.

Tropes in all Games

  • Abhorrent Admirer: The Rip Van Fish from "The Only Water Level". If they see Mario, they immediately chase him. Also, they're dreaming about finding love since they create hearts when they're sleeping.
  • Acrofatic: Ballser. Despite looking very round and heavy, Ballser gets faster and faster during the later phases of his boss fight. He even sprouts wings to become even faster and uses his weight to shake the ground and stun Mario.
  • Action Bomb: In addition to the Bob-ombs, the pink Bullet Birds, the red Bomb Boos and the dull red Yoshi Koopas explode.
  • Ancient Tomb: Kabu Katakomb is an Auto-Scrolling Level where Luigi has to dodge the Kabus and the bats. One section is underwater, which is difficult because Luigi is a slow swimmer and the scrolling speed is about the same as the scrolling speed of the land section.
  • Animate Body Parts: Bigeye.
  • Anti-Frustration Features: The game saves after every level completion. In the original Super Mario World, the game only saves after a Ghost House, Castle, or Fortess completion.
  • Author Appeal: Yogui likes to put crude penises in various places.
  • Author Avatar: Yogui's Avatar shows up when you achieve 100% Completion in Something and Something Else. He gives the player his Word of God and congratulates you for completing the game.
  • Auto-Scrolling Level:
    • Perilous Ice, which is made even more dangerous because of ice physics. Luckily, Yoshi is there to make things easier. You need him for the Switch Palace Exit.
    • Vertical Chao, where Mario has to ride on a tiny platform and has to dodge many enemies and obstacles.
    • Vile Vine, where Luigi has to climb a green apple vine and dodge obstacles at the same time. To get the secret exit, Luigi has to beat the green apple vine in a race.
    • Above the World is found in the Special World. Luigi has to dodge Flying Wigglers and use acorns to climb to the top. It's also a Marathon Level.
  • Big Bad: Ballser in Something and The Evil Guy in Something Else. They even team up during the bonus world in Something Else.
  • Blackout Basement: Darkave in Something Else. The blocks light up the way for Luigi and the only enemies are basically a Palette Swap of the green blobs in Super Mario World.
  • "Blind Idiot" Translation: Yogui used Google Translate for the level titles in World 3 of Something Else. Horikawa Otane, a Japanese speaker, was able to spot the grammatical flaws in the level titles.
  • Block Puzzle: The primary gimmick of Flower Tower. Luigi has to push giant pots around obstacle-filled courses in order to reach the end of the level.
  • Book Ends: The game begins with a description of the stolen plot and ends with a description of the plot itself.
  • Boring Return Journey: Upon retrieving the scenario in Something, Mario calls a Taxi and heads back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
  • Born as an Adult: Some of the eggs in Kinder Surprise hatch into fully grown Pidgit Bills, Masked Koopas, and Caped Koopas.
  • Boss-Arena Idiocy:
    • The boss of the Chateau du Vent has plenty of throw blocks in its arena. If they were replaced with an ordinary platform, the boss fight would be impossible.
    • The boss of Chateau de la Terre still has the throw block problem, but there's only three throw blocks in said arena.
  • Boss Rush: The True Final Boss in Something. Also, Mario has to do it without power-ups.
  • Boss Room: The boss levels in Something Else have a pre-boss room where Luigi can stock up on Fire Flower and Athletic Peach powerups before fighting the boss.
  • Breath Weapon:
    • The Dark Green Baby Yoshis in Something Else are sprite-swaps of the Dino Torches and have the same behavior as them.
    • The Sakura Tori is a pink bird and it can spit fireballs at its foes.
  • Bullet Hell: Yosu no Tera's boss is just dodging the bullets it fires at you, and it returns in the sequel.
  • Cherry Blossoms: World 3 in Something Else is covered in cherry blossom trees.
  • Clipped-Wing Angel: The Evil Guy's true form is a Cheep-Cheep, so Luigi curb-stomps him. Even the trope’s page image has the Evil Guy.
  • Cool Shades: The Galoombas in Something. Despite looking cool, they're still weaklings to Mario. They only appear in Flashing Forest and Chateau Finale.
  • Copy Cat Sue: invoked The Evil Guy looks like a Palette Swap of Mario. This trope is used to indicate the Evil Guy is a very bland character.
  • Cut and Paste Environments:
    • The second half of Oldschool Temple is based on Larry's Castle.
    • The fourth part of the Space Hideout is based on Forest of Illusion 2, but the enemies are replaced with Thwomps and the water physics have been removed.
  • Cute Kitten: Cat Beach has the gimmick of collecting 75 kittens before he allows Luigi to move onto the next level. The cat even does a cute smile at Luigi when Luigi completes this task.
  • Collection Sidequest: Something and Something Else have sidequests where you collect 75 of the item required and the gatekeeper allows passage. Both levels have alternate exits, and thus can be skipped.
  • Cyclops: The Banzai Bill sprite replacement in Something.
  • A Day in the Limelight: Luigi in Something Else.
  • Death Mountain: Worlds 4 and 6 in Something Else. In World 4, Luigi has to deal with Yoshis, Killer Bills, a very dark cave, and an underground mine. Luigi has to stop the invasion of the mountain village by Von Toad II and his frog cronies. In World 6, Luigi has two ways to approach the last castle. On one path, Luigi has to deal with exploding bullet birds and slippery ice blocks. On the other path, Luigi has to deal with slippery ice physics and plenty of platforming perils.
  • Demonic Possession:
    • In Something Else, The Miko leader gets possessed by a Big Boo and turns into the boss of World 3.
    • King Dedede by Dark Matter in the boss fight for DDDark Castle
  • Disc-One Final Dungeon: The Last Castle in Something Else. The Evil Guy's real base is on the Moon.
  • Distressed Dude: The leader of the bears gets kidnapped by the Evil Guy in Something Else and it is up to Luigi to save him.
  • Double Jump:
    • When Yoshi is hatched for the first time (most likely Happy Horse Bridge or Pipes n' P-switches) in Something, he says not to drop him in a pit. Mario does this to access either exit in Happy Horse Bridge.
    • One of the Athletic Peach's abilities in Something Else.
  • Easter Egg: In Something Else, there is a platform beyond the pipe at the start of "Darkave". It can only be accessed through clever use of the Athletic Peach, and features a mid-level gate and a pipe that leads to what is perhaps the best Overly Long Gag in any video game:
    • The first room is a replica of a test level in the original Super Mario World: a short room, without any background music, full of yellow blocks spelling out the word "TEST" (with an added invisible wall below the T; you need the Athletic Peach to wall-jump onto the blocks and bypass it) and a downward-pointing arrow. However, instead of a bottomless pit, there is a hidden pipe right below the arrow, leading to the next room. The bottom of the screen is an invisible floor.
    • The second room is a raised platform, where 90% of it is covered in ramps that produce a hilariously glitchy effect when you run across them. Once again, the bottom of the screen is a floor (in case you fall off), and green apples rain down like confetti. There is a coin formation in an unknown shape at the end, and several doors throughout the level. Only the last one leads to the next room. The music here is just a steel drum playing one note every two seconds.
    • The third room is a carbon-copy of the second one, but the coin formation is replaced with a door leading to the final room.
    • The fourth and final room features Luigi chasing a 3-Up Moon across a flat span of land, until a 1-Up Mushroom is generated. At this point, Luigi can touch the 3-Up Moon to exit the room.
    • After venturing through this incredible, pythonesque series of rooms, Luigi just gets dropped back at the pipe he was supposed to go down to properly continue the level, with a refilled time limit.
  • Electric Jellyfish/Flying Seafood Special: The main obstacle in Electricave. They are sprite swaps of the Boo Ceiling.
  • Elite Mooks: The pink Yoshi Koopas in Something Else.
  • Eternal Engine: The Space Hideout, because the graphics are ripped directly from Scrap Brain Zone Act 2, another Eternal Engine level.
  • Evil Knockoff: The Monty Moles in Something are replaced with tiny Mario clones.
  • Excuse Plot: The plot of the first game is to retrieve the plot stolen by Ballser. Turns meta when Mario reads the sheet describing this.
  • Feathered Fiend: The Pidgit Bills and Bullet Birds in the Something series. The Pidgit Bills get a Mario-seeking variation and the Bullet Birds get an exploding variation.
  • First Town: Firstep Village in Something Else.
  • Floating Water:
    • Rainy Clouds has a section where Luigi has to swim in shark-filled water and another section where the water is floating next to the clouds.
    • The Secret Exit route in Cat Beach in Something Else is based around this particular gimmick. One false move and Luigi plummets to his death.
  • Flying Face: The Yukkuri head appears as the main adversary of Yukkuri Take. It is a sprite-swap of the Angry Sun, so it can fly and mercilessly pursue Luigi.
  • Fusion Dance: The True Final Boss is a merger of the Evil Guy and Ballser.
  • Gender Flip/Pink Means Feminine:
    • The Rip Van Fish are female in Something because they are pink and their Zs are replaced with hearts.
    • The Pokeys are female in Something Else because they have large pink lips and their spikes are also pink.
  • Generic Doomsday Villain:
    • Ballser in Something. In fact, the scenario describing the game does not even mention his name at all.
    • The Evil Guy in Something Else. The introduction just shows his invasion of the Bears' world and his kidnapping of the Bear Elder.
  • Giant Eye of Doom: Big Eye in Something Else.
  • Gimmick Level: All of the levels in the Something series have a unique gimmick to make them stand out.
  • Gratuitous Japanese: Yosu no Tera and all of the level names of World 3 in Something Else. There's also a Miko who spouts off random Japanese words like Piston Honda in Punch-Out!!
  • Green Hill Zone:
    • Night Of Spikes in Something. It's unusual because it takes place at night and it has a lot of spikes.
    • The Flower Island in Something Else. A major portion of World 5 takes place on said island.
  • Gusty Glade: Chateau du Vent. The wind tries pushing Mario to the left, which makes moving to the right much more difficult, especially with obstacles in the way.
  • Goomba Springboard: The whole gimmick of Bouncing Training.
  • Hailfire Peaks: World 4 in Something, which is a desert/ice world. One its levels is "So Sand or Snow?", where Mario can use pipes to switch between the desert and ice halves.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Wigglers are still around. They even got a level in Something Else called Wigglers' Dwelling.
  • Hard Mode Filler: B Ghost House in Something is a remix of the first half of A Ghost House, but with black fog, Pidgit Bills, and no warning coins.
  • Helpful Mook:
    • The entire gimmick of Punches on Cold Ice. Mario has to be punched by the Punches in order to cross the vast gaps in the level.
    • The gimmick of spin-jumping on Torpedo Ted is used in Pain Fortress and Crazy Night.
  • Irritation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery: The Masked Koopas. They dress up like Mario in Something and dress like Yoshi in Something Else.
  • Invincible Minor Minion: Gordos, Munchers, Spikitus and Boss Bass. The Munchers even get a level, Hungry Vegetation, to themselves
  • Jungle Japes: The first world in Something Else.
  • King Mook:
    • Von Toad II is a much smarter version of the Frog enemies. Instead of riding a pogo stick, he uses a UFO in Something. In Something Else, he switches to a different machine.
    • Yobigshi is a gigantic version of the Yoshi Imposters in Something Else.
  • Kung Fu-Proof Mook: Boss Bass is the gimmick within Dat Bass and to make it worse, it is immune to fireballs.
  • Lethal Lava Land:
    • The first half of Skulls Cave. Mario has to ride on a one-skull raft over a river of lava and he has to dodge obstacles.
    • Chateau du Feu, which uses the graphics of Fire Man's level from Mega Man.
    • Intestinal Problem, which also happens to be a Womb Level.
  • Level in the Clouds: World 2 in in Something else takes place in the clouds, with solid cloud platforms and heavy focus on athletic platforming. Three of the levels take place in the tall trees.
  • Long Song, Short Scene: The invincibility themes are remixes of full songs (You Spin Me Right Round in Something and Guile's theme in Something Else), but invincibility lasts only a few seconds.
  • The Lost Woods: World 3 in Something takes place in a forest.
  • Mad Scientist: Von Toad II. He's smart enough to come up with the things he rides in the Something series.
  • Magic Mushroom: 'Hazardous House' in Something is based around the gimmick of the ? Mushroom. Its effects are randomized.
  • Man-Eating Plant: The Munchers and Pumpkin Plants in Something and the Fruit Vines in Something Else.
  • Marathon Level: Switch Room in the Evil Guy's moon base. To finish the level, Luigi has to press the four switches and activate the switch block bridge.
  • The Maze:
    • 'The Maze of Ice Cubes' in Something, which can be hard because of the ice physics.
    • 'The Mysterious Maze' in Something Else. You have to find the right doors to escape the maze.
  • Miko: The Reimu Look-a-likes in Something Else. They are led by a Yuyuko look-a-like.
  • Mine Cart Madness: 'Mine Catastrophe'. Luigi has to use Minecarts to make it to the end of the level. According to a Message Box, Luigi is dumb enough to fall through the holes between planks.
  • Mini Game Zone: Unlocked after beating DDDark Castle in Something Else. It lets Luigi collect lives by playing variations of the minigame played every 100 stars. There's also a secret that lets Luigi do this without playing the mini-games.
  • Mordor: The last world in Something. It's a dark-grey field with a Ghost House filled with ? Mushrooms, an obstacle-filled Fortress, and Ballser's Castle. Ballser is menacingly orbiting around his castle, waiting for Mario to enter.
  • Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups: Luigi cannot use the Athletic Peach and the Fire Flower at the same time in Something Else.
  • Nerf: If you try to exit a level with Yoshi in either game, you immediately lose him. Justified because Yoshi was a Game-Breaker in the original Super Mario World.
  • Neon Sign Hideout: Ballser's Castle, because it is a sprite edit of Bowser's Castle, in Something.
  • Nostalgia Level:
    • According to Yogui, Oldschool Temple is a level from an unfinished hack, so its quality is worse in comparison to the other levels In Something.
    • The secret level in Dinosaur Land is a throwback level. It first appeared in Super Mario Ocean.
    • Else Castle :3 has Yogui's past levels, but they are randomized based on time.

  • Paper-Thin Disguise: The Buzzy Beetles in Something Else disguise themselves as helpful ? Orbs, but that fails since they're always moving. Also, the ? Orbs are not used as exits.

  • Pixellation: Used to cover up the indecent act between Luigi and the Head Miko in Something Else.

  • Punched Across the Room: Used as the main gimmick in 'Punches on Cold Ice'. Mario has to be punched by the titular enemies in order to cross the massive pits.

  • Ribcage Ridge: 'Skulls Cave', which happens to be a reference to Skull Man's level in Mega Man 4.
  • Sensory Abuse:
    • The music in 'Spikitu Castle 2' is an off-key and distorted version of Spikitu Castle's theme.

    • The Boss levels in Something Else are a reference to the Donkey Kong Country series, as they only have a pathway leading to the boss and the arena itself.
    • According to Yogui, Wigglers' Dwelling is actually a remake of the first level of Kid Adventure. This is why there's a Kid made of coin at the end. The secret passage is a remake of the first level of Kid Adventure 3.

    • 'Snow Furry Temple', where Luigi is chased by a white FOE.
  • Smashing Hallway Traps of Doom:
    • 'Chateau de la Terre' in Something is filled with big smashers. The level has no auto-scrolling sections, but the platforming is extremely difficult.

  • Sound Test: Found in the Bonus Area of Something Else. Luigi can listen to music he has already unlocked.
  • Space Base: The Evil Guy's base is located on the moon.
  • Space Zone: 'A Day in Space' in Something. Unusually, this level is also a Green Hill Zone, but its difficulty is appropriate since it is a Brutal Bonus Level. Lots of munchers and pits in this level.
  • Spell My Name with a "The": The Evil Guy in Something Else.
  • Spikes of Doom:
    • 'Night of Spikes'. The only enemy around is the Tick and most of the obstacles are spikes.

  • Tactical Suicide Boss:
    • If Von Toad II didn't spawn his toad minions when you fought him in Something, fighting him when his saucer rises higher would be impossible.
    • If Monkey Kong didn't toss barrels at Luigi during the phase where Munchers are a prominent obstacle, it would be impossible to beat.
    • If Von Toad II's machine in Something Else didn't shoot stompable ball projectiles, he would be harder to beat.
  • Temple of Doom:
    • 'Oldschool Temple' in Something. The graphics come from the Pyramid Levels in Super Mario Bros. 2 and the Labyrinth Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog. The music is a remix of Marble Garden Zone Act 2 from Sonic the Hedgehog 3. The level is filled with large pits in the first half and Thwomps and spikes in the second half.
    • 'Puzzle Temple' in Something Else. To complete this optional level, Luigi has to solve the puzzles, which requires proper use of the springboards and P-Switches.
  • Tempting Fate: The message box in the secret area inside 'Dino Horse Cloud' claims that there is no food in the secret area and that Luigi can't carry out the Yellow Yoshi baby through the door. Luigi proves the message box wrong by having the Yoshi baby eat the message box. Also, the Yoshi baby eats the other message boxes within the area.
  • Throw a Barrel at It: Monkey Kong's main method of attack In Something Else.
  • Timed Mission: Running Cave. Luigi has to run to the end of the level, but the Charging' Chucks and the tiny time limit will make it difficult.
  • Title Drop:
    • Something appears in a block formation in 'Fuzzy Tower' and 'So Sand or Snow?'
    • Something Else also appears in block formation in 'This is Something'. 'This is Something' and the Else Castle also forms a Title Drop.
  • Toothy Bird: Shows up as an obstacle in 'The Last Castle'. They're clearly Rip Van Fish sprite-swaps as they share the same behaviors as Rip Van Fish.
  • Trapped in Another World: Luigi is accidentally summoned to the Bears' World in Something Else because they wanted his brother, Mario.
  • Under the Sea:
    • There is a section of swimming in the Lost Path's switch palace exit. It's difficult because of the Phantos.
    • The level called 'Only Water Level' in Something is the only pure water level in Something. It's unique because of the blue Angry Sun pursuing Mario at all times.
    • Star Ocean in Something Else. It's filled with unhappy stars and they want to kill Luigi.
  • Unexpected Gameplay Change:
    • 'Yosu no Tera' has a section where Mario has to use the P-Balloon in order to navigate the pseudo-SHUMP section, and Yosu no Tera 2 does the same thing to Luigi in Something Else.

  • Wutai: World 3 in Something Else has a distinct Japanese motif.
  • You ALL Look Familiar: The bears and the Miko in Something Else.
