Super Mario 64 becomes a first-person horror game

A guy receives a mysterious letter from his girlfriend, arrives at a castle to find her missing, and tons of rooms full of monsters…this is the setting for the 1996 classic SuperMario 64sure, but it’s also a survival horror pitch, which is why this new fan-made project fits so perfectly.

Above Nintendo lifeThis is Another princess is in our castle“a SuperMario 64 inspired horror experience” in which you “decide to return to Peach’s castle a few years after the princess died, but something isn’t quite right…”

While this looks like a first-person mod, it’s actually an entirely fan-made project designed with perspective in mind, and while it’s currently only a short playable demo, its creator, Claudio Mondin, hopes to eventually make it too concretize something more substantial.

Here’s a trailer from Mondin:

And here are some gameplay shots that show how it’s all about sneaking around the castle and collecting items while trying to avoid a princess who’s definitely not peachy:

As Mondin says, it’s pretty much just a demo so don’t expect too much from it other than some stealth (and the very cool novelty of it). I’ll play some more later today just to see what the promised mystery really is (hopefully the ghost is just upset about it her cake turned into dog shit).
