Ever wanted to enjoy a classic 1996 platformer in a completely new way? Now you can!

Retro64 lets you play as your favorite plumber within your Minecraft world. Run, jump, and ground-pound enemies, exactly how it is in the real game!

This uses the SM64 decomp project to give you an 1:1 simulation of the original game's physics.

FAQ

Does this mod work with shaders (optifine)?

No, shaders are currently not supported.

Is this mod compatible with this [other mod]?

I doubt it, but I'll try to add compatibility with other mods in the future, although it's not a priority at the moment.

Is there Multiplayer support?

Yes, but it's very work in progress. If you want the best experience, I suggest playing in singleplayer for now!
