Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Where is the options page?

The player options page for this game contains all the options you need to configure and export a config file.

What does randomization do to this game?

Items which the player would normally acquire throughout the game have been moved around. Logic remains, so the game is always able to be completed, but because of the item shuffle, the player may need to access certain areas before they would in the vanilla game.

The game has been changed to an open-world style as opposed to the linear style the vanilla game has.

Other Features such as Turbo through textboxes (Hold L/R+A) and Pipe Warping from any room (Hold L+R+SELECT) have been added for convenience.

Enemies and Bosses can be randomized, and their stats can be scaled to feel more like the vanilla game's stats.

Other aspects of the game can be randomized as well such as music, sounds, battle backgrounds, Mario and Luigi's Colors, and more.

What does another world's item look like in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga?

When the player receives an item, what happens?

Items will be placed directly into the players inventory after a few seconds. Sometimes for certain events and cutscenes to be properly triggered right after you received an item, you may have to leave and re-enter the room to properly load everything required for the respective event or cutscene.
