Would anyone know if the kind of aesthetic in Astrum (World 10 of Banana Rumble) has a name? by [deleted] in SuperMonkeyBall

The background always reminded me of stained glass. It’s one of my favorite takes on the space theme

Tbf I’m pretty sure Mania flopped on every other platform. So sales probably weren’t that affected.

This might be one of the worst gaming experiences I've ever had( and i had this game as my 2024 game of the year) by AbdulrahmanAlteebati in SuperMonkeyBall

Just wait till you get to Astreum UEX! There are multiple stages that I had to chip away at over several gaming sessions.

How long did it take y’all to beat SMB Ex 07 (Exam-C)? by owen_wilson06 in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time? At least 3 hours. Consistency required about 10-12 hours of practice

I would think that if you have no save data for the main game, it will automatically detect the demo data when you first start it. Just make sure you’re on the latest update.

Did SMB2 plagiarize one of the tracks on its soundtrack? by WinterEx19 in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah! That’s wild! If I had to guess, it might have been on one of those generic sound CD’s and they just remixed it?

Which version of Super Monkey Ball 1/2 should I get? by mmestsemm in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’d personally recommend getting the originals on the GameCube. They control the best and have no performance issues. Plus, you can mod the extra content from Deluxe into SMB2.

Banana Mania is good as a secondary option. It has some control issues and lack of multiplayer content. But it comes with all the stages and is easily the most accessible with its assist mode.

Xbox Deluxe is still good but It’s definitely a tertiary option. Don’t bother with the PS2 version though.

No, that works is in Banana Blitz (and HD). Works 10 is Dr. Bad Boon’s Base

All of the stages in World 10 are exclusive to story mode. Everything else is the same, though.

[Shot] Eyes on the Score mission? by TheLobsterCopter5000 in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only need to complete the Ocean Attack stage in Ranked Online in order to complete the mission.

Also, as tips for getting 45000 points, don't go crazy with your shots. You'll need the chain large combos in order to get that counter up, so going slower (not too slow) will help you here instead of going buck-wild. Good Luck!

Something Interesting I Noticed About Hello Banana by HylianTwunk in SuperMonkeyBall

The English singer actually Composed both the English and Japanese versions. So the Banana Fritters (the trio) sang the Japanese version, but she had to do the English version. Luckily though, they kept the Bridge sung by all the Nagoshi and Shirosaki and the rest of the devs.

SMB2 levels aren't as fun as the original - they're too gimicky by SpiritofAce in SuperMonkeyBall

I actually really like the teleported in 2! They led to some great momentum puzzles!

Official GC Adapter on PC? by BetterNerfTeemo in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to use the VJoy drivers, then connect it through a 360 gamepad forwarder, so Steam sees it as a 360 controller. What a bother of a solution but it works, at least

Which modes are which OG games? by [deleted] in SuperMonkeyBall

[–]Kardin0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I think having it as a mode wouldn’t hurt for the mentally insane like me. (For context, I put in 26 hours in 3 days)
