„ Pipe Towers Zone Revamped „ project is doing exactly what it implies, and that’s adding more to already barren Mario Mode and revamping one of the older Bonus Zones.
The mod introduces revamped and new textures, new enemies, new mushroom power-ups and more.
And no, there aren’t any Super Mario All-Stars upscaled textures used this time around!
For those that don't know, Pipe Towers Zone was released as part of contest OLDC ( Official Level Design Contest ) in it's August/July 2011 Edition,
where it previously scored 8.19 and due to popular demand it replaced Mario Koopa Blast Zone in version 2.1 released on March 15th, 2014.
2.0 version of this pack appeared in 2.2.14, due to judgment of level of involvement of certain parties - the crediting issues and final decision in turn to avoid Mario content altogether, this version was scrapped entirely from Vanilla and unlikely to return. Porting work was provided by TehPuertoRicanSpartan.
The level has 2 thematically distinctive sections, 1st and more prominent one is the Overworld section and 2nd lesser prominent one is the Underground section. Originally, both were based visually on SMB1's visuals.
Revamp was inspired by many Mario projects, official to unofficial, from modern games to older ones.
Main Gimmick: Bouncing Mushrooms
Description: These mushroom acts as bounce pads, which with each jump can increase their strength
and throw you to skies if they are set up to do so.
Just don't believe in that lie, that you can fly.
Enemy: Goomba
Description: Comes in two variants blue and brown, they just keep chasing you as A_Chase should.
Enemy: Green Koopa
Description: They are one of the new addition revamp brings to the table, Koopas behave exactly movement-wise like
Egg Guards from Castle Eggman Zone Act 1 and 2.
Gameplay Element: Power up Mushrooms
Description: They are alternative means to gain power-ups within Zone, they work exactly like in the Mario franchise,
just don't eat Eggman mushrooms!

(Previously project was called MKB Revamped – Mario Koopa Blast revamped, that was due to focus on new content for mappers rather than map itself, but currently, a concept with zone evolved,
where our focus changed on mapping work)
We’d like to thank Fawfulfan for giving us permission despise level being already donated to vanilla.

Wait, there is more! Mario Mode++ the expansion to Mario Mode, The original 2.0's code, assets, maps and such are available for computer-savvy people! All of it! As of now, the Pipe Kingdom Zone, the original 2.0 is cancelled. You could create a better version of this revamping effort with little effort, but the point of this is really to preserve 2.2.14 effort. https://github.com/TeamSprings/SRB2-MarioModePP
