SMB2 Toad
css.png
As seen in Super Mario Bros. 2, also known as Super Mario Bros. USA, the bravest of Princess Toadstool's loyal subjects makes his way into SRB2! While the Toads are known for their peaceful, timid nature, a select few exhibit gumption to match their mustachioed hero. One such individual, one way or another, found himself in the dreaming land of Subcon, and, alongside Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool, saved its residents from the amphibious tyrant Wart. Now, that same Toad makes his way into SRB2, just as quick and powerful in the waking world as he is in the dreaming one!

Ability: Pluck

Press Spin to pull out a turnip, then press Spin again to throw it! Hitting an enemy with a turnip will damage it. Your movement will influence how fast it flies, and which direction it goes. While you're holding a turnip, you'll get a speed boost. Turnips can also be thrown at spikes to destroy them.

A turnip can be pulled anywhere. On the ground, in the air, after bouncing off of a spring, even after getting hit! You can use this to easily cancel your momentum if you're going in a direction you don't want to go.

Ability: Stand On Enemies

Just like in his source game, SMB2 Toad can stand on enemies and ride them around. Simply hop on, and ride around to your heart's content!

You may notice that, even while holding a turnip, SMB2 Toad struggles to keep up with the vanilla cast in terms of plain running speed, and riding on the backs of enemies does little to help. However, this all changes when you combine Pluck and Stand On Enemies!

Ability: Pluck Enemy

Veggies aren't the only thing SMB2 Toad can lift! When you stand on an enemy, a reticle will appear above them. If you then try to use Pluck, instead of a turnip, you'll pick up the enemy you were standing on!

While holding an enemy, SMB2 Toad will gain a massive speed boost, allowing him to even outpace Metal Sonic in terms of raw ground speed. Anything SMB2 Toad can do with a turnip can also be done with an enemy. Thrown enemies can also go on to hit multiple enemies, which... isn't that widely applicable or useful, but it's kinda cool!

Contrary to what the name might suggest, Pluck Enemy can also be used on some non-enemy objects, most notably monitors. It can also be used to destroy fragile floors.

Ability: Power Squat Jump

SMB2 Toad's final ability is the Power Squat Jump, once again taken directly from the source material. Hold Custom 1 to crouch. Hold it for long enough, and SMB2 Toad will start flashing. He'll keep flashing for a couple seconds after you stand up. If you jump while flashing, your jump height will be doubled!

This character mod is super fun! I played through the main campaign with him today and had a fun time trying to make it through some of the tougher levels! Playing as Toad really makes you think outside the box about your approach to completing certain stages, and it was a nice change of pace considering I usually just blast through everything whenever I break in a modded character in the vanilla levels.

There is *one* small issue I've noticed that hasn't been mentioned here yet, and I'm not sure if it's an oversight or if it was intentional. Regardless, I'm going to let it be known here: Crouching doesn't allow you to pass under small gaps that you could usually fit under when crouching/rolling/spindashing/etc, which means that a few pathways in vanilla become blocked off, and certain map packs become impossible to complete without manually changing your size via console or other addons. Other than that tiny hiccup (and one small game freeze that occurred when I tossed a Robo Hood at a Lance-A-Bot in Castle Eggman Zone 2), I had a blast with Toad! Very intriguing playstyle, very entertaining to play as.

Crouching is supposed to let you pass under gaps, but for whatever reason, it just doesn't seem to work. I'll look into that for future updates. I'm not sure what you mean by some maps becoming impossible, though? SMB2 Toad should be able to go everywhere that Fang can, and shouldn't be able to end up anywhere that requires him to pass under gaps. Could you elaborate more in the Discussion tab?

Great mod. I wish he was a tiny bit faster since he was the fastest of the 4 in SMB2 to make him stick out from the vanilla cast a tiny bit more but that's just my personal opinion on the character. Nothing to complain about and it just fits.

Not a bad mod! He can be a bit bothersome to play due to his jump height, but I know that's meant to be accurate to SMB2.

I did discover a bad glitch with him, though. When I threw a ring monitor at a Lance-a-Bot in Castle Eggman Zone, the game froze and crashed. Hope that gets fixed, but other than that, pretty good mod!

Overall just good. The mods as of late have been COOKING!
This was my main in SMB2, and I LOVED him. (I use toad in most Mario games. He's just too peak. :3)
No complaints.




so retro...
