SuperSkye: The Legacy

SuperSkye: The Legacy was a mostly failed first attempt in a series of projects by WeegeeBen to reincarnate SuperSkye as a new, playable game. It is widely considered to have been a failure, and several newer projects are intended to replace it.

Characteristics
The game was a Super Mario World hack, created using tools distributed from SMWCentral, a website dedicated to helping SMW hackers create their games.

It starred Skye, as well as several other characters intended to make cameo appearances. Many enemies in the game have also been changed into SuperSkye characters; for instance, Beriberis and Nuckelavees replaced Koopas and Goombas, respectively.

Though a rather large hype was put up about the hack on the site, it failed to generate a positive response when it was finally released, due to poor level design and a strong rushed quality that WeegeeBen himself admitted that the game had.

Fatal glitch
The game also notoriously sported an unknown glitch, which caused it to be unplayable past World 2. The glitch occurs in the level Maze Tunnel.

New Game
A newer game, Electra, is currently in the works and is intended to replace the old SuperSkye: The Legacy. Its progress thread can be visited here.
