There's a free remake of the Super Angelo game here, but it's not the same as the original DOS version: www.wieringsoftware.nl/flash/angelo/
That game, its windows port, a sequel and an "expansion pack" are also on Steam:
store.steampowered.com/search/?developer=Mike%20Wiering
Well it doesn't work anymore sadly..
You know what I noticed? The Piranha Plant in Mario & Luigi doesn't look like a Mario style one, but the Piranha Plant in Super Angelo does. It feels backwards.

Came here to find this comment
Gruz said this right when I read this comment
Aw yeah, this is the good stuff 👍
What a crossover right here.
@@rayminishi689 lol. I thought the same. I was like, whoa. Its all coming together
My two favorite youtubers, on one page?
Amazing!
i have a weird love for games that always have their name & logo in the sidebar.
Hell yeah!
If you purchase the registration key for Charlie the Duck, you can use the same key for Super Angelo and it will unlock the full version.
Just make sure you get Charlie the Duck 1, not 2... Charlie 2 uses a different registration system.
Not sure you can do that these days. Does the Steam copy's DOSBOX version come with registration key? I'd consider buying Charlie from Steam if that's the case so I can also have this one. It doesn't appear he sells the registration codes for the MSDOS version Charlie the Duck anymore now that it's on Steam/Android. :(
Mario and Luigi? That Mario clone? Oh man I've played it on my old Windows XP machine when I was a kid. Never remembered the name to replay it since. Thanks for reminding me!
There's something about MIDI sfx that I love so much. It's cheap, yet satisfying to hear
According to your words, I played the Beta version of Mario & Luigi as a kid and that game.
My parents bought a 3.5" floppy diskette that had "Super Mario Land" and some infos written on it when we went to a flea market.
The version on that diskette only featured four levels and would exit to DOS automatically once finished.
No start screen or options either, Level 1-1 started right away once MARIO.EXE was executed.
Honestly, the difficulty isn't all that given but it was still enough to give 5-7 years old me a good challenge which is why I still play the game with a smile in DOSBox every once in a while 😀
My dad had Mario & Luigi on the family Windows 95 PC back in the day. No idea how or where he got it since fan games and the like were never his cup of tea, but I've got a lot of nostalgia for it now.
Oh my god. I had no idea Georg Rottensteiner made PC Games. He still makes games, but for the C64 nowadays, as well as C64 Studio, an Assembler IDE. One of my favorite games ever, Joe Gunn is one of his.
You really must add this "Welcome to Killgruz" in every intro narration. It sounds so cool and bad ash, in this particular video! Keep up...
2:51 Looks like a Kamehameha Wave!
Or a Sonic Boom.
Not sure why, but something about the tiny community here makes it feel like the channel is reserved for those with a level of prestige, where everyone's voice matters. Been watching for almost 10 years now, keep up the good work man!
Zachary Bechtel you mean how the more of CZcams was in the genesis !
Literally you tube, like people doing fun things.
What a mistake to sell it, I wonder why
I'm so glad I found this channel. Keep up the awesome vids man 👊
Oh, that's the one I was waiting for! I played the Mario one as a kid in my school's computers, and it wasn't ever too great, but still cool enough as a novelty.
You're awesome dude!!! *Your videos are great!* You should post some of them on some retrogaming subreddit to get more deserved visibility 🤗
Ahahaha, I remember playing Mario and Luigi a lot back then in the Compaq Presario PCs of my school that had Windows 95 when I was a kid. I also remember checking the computer lab afterschool and playing other stuff like Doom 2, Heretic and Moto Racer. The teacher in charge of that classroom was great, he would let us play as much we wanted as long we deleted the files from the computers before going back home. What a great lad.
Killgruz, your videos just keep getting better! I love Mike Weiring's games, and the topic of Mario clones is very interesting for me. Keep up the great work!
20 years ago, I actually had a DOS version of Super Mario Bros. I have no idea who programmed it and I have not seen it since. I don't think it was the full game. It lacked a title screen and I remember the stages were truncated compared to the NES original. The sound effects used the onboard motherboard for sounds, which sounded like crap. No sound came out of the computer speakers. I've been looking for it and figured it might be on your channel, but no luck I guess. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that it actually existed.
Just wanted to say that I enjoy these videos a lot. Hope to see more in the near future!
Great video!! Seems like there's a whole world of dos games I don't know anything about. These look fun.
I've played Giana Sisters on the C64 when I was a kid, though I didn't realize it at the time. It was a sprite hack that replaced Giana and Maria with Mario and Luigi.
Nice video! Yet again! Btw, it's not spit or a gust of wind, it's a hadouken.
I created a 32KB Mario clone on the NES a few years back, but unfortunately, issues with the publisher have left the game in limbo.
Do you have any website with screenshots? I'm curious.
Aww man, I grew up with chaos software Mario, it was the first game I have ever played :) I never knew it was a beta of Mario and Luigi though
So even the first Mario clones already had troll blocks.
Interesting even though I never heard of any of them.
I liked how you used your own original mario land footage. Cool!
I played mario & luigi on pc in the late 90’s on a windows 3.11 386 pc,,, man what was i excited,,these were the good days, and at the time i believe that they used the SMB1 engine from mario allstars.
"What do you do if it's the mid 90s?"
I play Commander Keen and other id games :D
And Epic, and Apogee... ;)
I had the Wizardware Ltd. CD back in '94 that had variety of shareware dos games and programs and played Commander Keen on it on my dad's computer in his office at home.
Ahhh... I fondly (and not so fondly) remember playing quite a few Mario bootleg games when I was a kid. One I especially remember was the Castlevania-esque Super Mario XP. That one was pretty tough and I couldn't beat Stage 4. Haha... ^^"
Awesome Video. so far I'm Loving every video of yours I'm seeing.
I remember playing a little of Mario and Luigi on someone's computer long ago but I never got to finish it.
I should really check it out again one day.
Charlie The Duck is also a really good one.
Man, I just love your videos.
Super Angelo is my childhood. The flash version
"Can we have Mario? No, we have mario at home."
Mario & Luigi actually was my "Mario at home".
It’s funny that the first game was called Todd’s Adventures because there is a game for the Atari Lynx called Todd’s Adventure In Slime World
Thanks for this. I have a DS a dos
Emulator. Time to play some new games.
Hey, Kilgruz. Have you thought of doing a part 3 of 25 weird Super Mario Bros Game Genie codes video? Because I was wondering what would happen if you entered KITKAT, TEEPEE, PIGSTY or SIXPAK. If they don't work, it is worth a shot.
I tried throwing those into an emulator, I didn't notice much but I wasn't that thorough.
@@handsomebrick Oh, that's a shame. :(
This guy's voice is funny to say the least. I haven't watched past the intro, but man is it hilarious.
love your content bro!!!!!!!!!!
aiight time for the video :D
I remember playing Mario & Luigi from a shareware complication disc. I never beat it, but wow, what a bummer that there’s only 6 levels.
2:51 thats a rude buster
History must be preserved and respected as to build a solid foundation for what may or may not lie ahead, or at least we keep track of the screw ups so that we don't repeat them.
That Angelo version's "powerups' remind me of Contra.
The Adobe Flash Player version of Super Angelo (Done by Wiering Software), There was an error that it has the Sound effects from Charlie the Duck (Another game done by Wiering Software).
Gotta love them basic dos graphics.
I liked Angelo and Kid, they look really solid for their time period. Also seem to capture Mario style pretty well
I’m in for a ride.
Fond memories of Mario & Luigi theres even a SMW hack with the same level layouts
Yeah, they do have similar balls
Mike Wiering also made a game called Charlie the Duck too. Go and give that a look too.
I already knew about most of these games except for the todd's adventures game. Kinda reminds me of that game Todd's Adventures in Slime World for both the Megadrive/Genesis and the Atari Lynx.
2:04 Kaizo block
I always wanted to replay that one previous to the last. I used to have the 4 level version, didn't know about its story.
In the first game even though he said there were no power ups but there was star
The star is for points! A whole 500 of them!
killgruz I see
And there there was a game called Mario & Luigi I’m guessing that came out before the GBA game Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga
It's just joining two characters' names together. Not exactly the most creative.
Fupi good point
Can we talk about how light Todd is
2:50 Well that appears to be a Hadouken.
5:01 I had this game for DOS back in 1995, but it wasn't called Mario&Luigi, but just "Mario!" (with an exclamation). It was a single 64K EXE file, which is pretty impressive. This version in the video seems to be the final version with title screen (the version I played was the beta that the video talks about, which started directly in Level 1 after running the EXE, and in the 3rd or 4th level Mario entered an infinite empty room, which you couldn't get out of, so the game couldn't be finished), but even though this version in the video has Luigi in the title, it doesn't seem to feature Luigi anyway, does it?
is it just me? Or KID does look reeeeeeaaaally similar to the guy from I wanna be the guy? I mean, obviously KID is older but, maybe the guy's look was inspired off from KID? Dang, even its palette is similar
I thought the same
Also looks the same as Battle Kid and Mega Man.
Try out Charlie the Duck 1 and 2. They're primarily Windows, but they have does versions with PC Speaker sound.
Alternative Mention (but not Mario-like) is Lychnis for MS-DOS. There's no English translation, but it's the closest to a console platformer I've seen on DOS.
I want these mario clones to be made for later Atari consoles!
I remember one that was a duck... I forgot the name but was very good.
HEY!! Kid has The Kamaymaya Wave!! Lol
Nice video. You forgot Charlie the duck 😉
Or you could just go to your local library with couple of floppies and copy nesticle nes emulator and few games for it (including Mario bros)
I'll take a look into my archives. I might have it. Theres just no telling
The overworld theme in ms dos version of Gianna sisters is not like in original could it be some early version of this theme?
What is the name of the last game that you put in the video very good the video
Super Angelo is pretty good as a Mario clone, as for the rest I don't know.
You forgot Charlie the Duck and Sint Nicholaas
Haha without even watching, both Mike Wiering's Super Angelo and Mario & Luigi are in this :) Not going to try and guess the other 3
Sounds like a call for an uprising
I'd love to see the last 2 ported as a ROM hack
you forgot the Super Mario 3 for DOS made by none other than John Carmack himself
super angelo?
*now that's a game i haven't played in a while*
Seems like its the physics that pirate (or otherwise nooby) game makers seem to struggle with. Hate those ones where ya have to pull back to compensate for it jumping too far to the right (or vice-versa)
lol how do you find such odd games? That's awesome.
Is it just me. Or does kid look like Bubby from Rainbow Islands (Bubble Bobble 2)
Subscribed because of "They have similar balls."
I should have seen this video in the 90s not now
I remember there was a direct port of the NES TMNT game for DOS and it was terrible. The controls were laggy, the jumping was almost impossible to control and I seem to remember the difficulty being higher... which is saying something for that game.
I thought this was going to be about the Mario clone for dos that id software (john carmack) made to try out new tech he was making for commander Keen. They even presented it to Nintendo to make a port but they were turned away.
Two thoughts about the second game, "Kid"
First, the attack you couldn't identify, I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be the author's own take on the Hadouken from Street Fighter II.
Second... is it just me or does the Kid's in-game sprite look a lot like the kid from I Wanna Be the Guy? Is this by the same developer?
they aren't by the same developer (with Kid being developed by Stephan Vogler and IWBTG being developed by Michael "Kayin" O'Reilly) but it's very possible that IWBTG took inspiration from Kid considering the nature of IWBTG
You know, if you don't have a Nintendo in the mid-90's, you probably have a Genesis.
They have similar balls? LOL!
Hate to nitpick, but I just want to point out it's pronounced "Rye-nar" Sinsh, not Ree-nurr. ;P
You sound like kevin from the office
I remember seeing a version of Super Angelo with ducks? Any one what it's called?
Charlie the Duck?
@@itsgruz that's what it was
Super mario clones on DAHS! 0:22
What about SMBSpecial?
Dude here's hoping COPPA doesn't affect your channel seeing as Mario is indeed child friendly 😟
What is it with DOS indie games and zero physics at all?? The stiff linear way they move up and then straight back down again for "jumping"...simple velocity is not hard, it's the first thing I learned in game programming...
Mario and Luigi is good game tbh
They have similar balls
If you have a pentium 3 machine it can be fast enough to run the emulator nesticle
They have similar 😶😶😶😶😶
Won't be long until Nintendo takes this down
Epic Typhlosion Naa they stopped doing that, which is surprisingly uncharacteristic of how Nintendo has been.
They now have a policy of not flagging any content with their games as long as it falls into youtubes TOU as transformative.
Basically they just let CZcams decide, because the publicity of Nintendo games is a net plus. Just took them a decade to figure that out
It’s the mid-90s and you don’t have a Nintendo? Why?
Goomba and blocks on title
