SuperTux is a free and open source Linux-based Super Mario Bros. clone. It is inspired by the first and third games in the Super Mario Bros. series, and even has a level editor and fan-made addons that can be played to extend the game.This page will talk about both the original game and it's addons.

The Artifact
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e
comment
The Artifact: The old Jumpy sprites still exist in Milestone 2, but haven't been changed, aside from porting it over to the new animation format, and adding frozen sprites. The time limit becomes this in Milestone 2. While it was mandatory for every level to have a time limit in Milestone 1, the timer is now an optional feature in Milestone 2.

Lava Is Boiling Kool-Aid: In Milestone 1, lava is just a reskin of water and is completely harmless. Lava in Milestone 2 deals damage on contact, but otherwise works exactly like water, even letting Tux swim in it.

Awesome, but Impractical
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: Being Big Tux is usually a good thing, as this gives you a second hitpoint. However, it's not so good if you have to make wide and precise jumps between small platforms. In levels requiring this you are better off as Small Tux. Downplayed with the air flower. It lets you move faster, which is not always a good thing. And it lets you jump a bit higher and hover briefly as you fall. Until you get used to the timing, this can cause players to miss platforms they would have hit without the powerup. However, with multiple air flowers, It instead becomes Difficultbut Awesome, as you can hover for a longer time. Collecting powerups of the same type above a certain limit. Let's face it, eleven fire flowers aren't much more powerful than ten.

Your Princess Is in Another Castle!
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_33fa230b
comment
Your Princess Is in Another Castle!: In some older versions, Nolok leaves a letter for Tux after he captures Penny. In later versions, when Tux reaches the end of Nolok's castle on Icy island, he finds an empty room with a letter from Penny telling him that Nolok brought her to a far place. Then the Yeti suddenly shows up and chases Tux out, until Tux gets cornered in a large pit. Also happens in Adventure To The New World 2.

Icy Island, the start point of the game. Usually Tux has no problems walking over snow and ice tiles, but there are surfaces which are so slippery that even the little penguin will slip (oddly enough, this doesn't affect enemies).

Lava Pit
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_4ebb6d16
comment
In some levels Tux can stand on platforms less than one tile above a lava surface without getting hurt. Also when he has a powerup and falls into a non-bottomless Lava Pit, he will not die instantly but instead take a hit, giving the player a chance to get out alive (if the pit is shallow enough; otherwise Tux will subsequently die).

Schizophrenic Difficulty
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_529ade8d
comment
Schizophrenic Difficulty: Given the relatively large number of levels per world, SuperTux inevitably has shades of this. (In part also because both implemented worlds feature different environments throughout their courses, such as Underground Levels, sky levels, water-rich levels and castles.) This architecture makes it very hard to constantly ramp up difficulty.

comment
Goomba Stomp: Many mooks can be defeated this way. Those who can't usually either have obvious spikes on their top, or they are ghost-like entities. Also the first boss has to be defeated by repeatedly jumping on his head. Goomba Springboard: Tux can also springboard off of squished enemies. This is even required in a few locations, and can be abused to bypass parts of a level in others.

Obstructive Foreground: High grass in some Forest levels hides small mooks nearly completely, so that you walk into them if you're not careful.

The developers avoid making bosses too easy, but SuperTux still counts as this. For example, look at the sheer number of levels on Icy Island that you have to go through in order to reach the Yeti boss, and then look at the boss fight itself. Which one will likely take more time?

Crippling Overspecialization
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca
comment
Crippling Overspecialization: The earth flower is really useful in dark underground levels, as it gives Tux a "safety helmet" equipped with a little lamp. Obviously, that lamp is effectless in a fully lit environment. Even in a partially lit scene it can be more debilitating than useful because the bright light cone impairs perception of things outside of it. Plus you need a relatively even floor for it to be most effective - small platforms with bottomless pits are difficult to cross because you can't direct the light diagonally... Yeah, the earth flower also has other nice effects - it gives you an extra hitpoint (like the other flower powerups), and allows you to "petrify" briefly and become invulnerable. Hitting the key combination for triggering the petrification at the right moment is difficult, however.

Family-Unfriendly Death: While not overtly shocking, the death animations when mooks are hit by fireballs are a bit more graphic than those in a typical Super Mario platformer.

Difficult, but Awesome
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb
comment
Difficult, but Awesome: A single ice flower lets you throw ice balls that can freeze many enemies in place and extinguish fire, but only one at a time. And the iceballs tend to ricochet for several seconds before disappearing. Meaning if you miss your target you have to wait until the iceball has disappeared (or hits by chance after bouncing off several obstacles) until you can throw the next. However, with some skill you can hit enemies indirectly using obstacles as "reflectors". This is not possible with a fire flower.

Soundtrack Dissonance: Some of the hardest levels have rather happy or calm soundtracks. Especially the main theme (a frantic techno soundtrack) is used for many levels of various difficulty levels, while Underground Levels mostly have calm and melancholic soundtracks regardless of difficulty, including "Think fast, or die".

One Bullet at a Time: A single fire or ice flower lets you have one bullet on screen at a time. This limit increases by one for each additional fire/ice flower you collect, but resets if you lose the powerup.

Hard Levels, Easy Bosses
 Supertux (Video Game) / int_b4696bc
comment
Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: The developers avoid making bosses too easy, but SuperTux still counts as this. For example, look at the sheer number of levels on Icy Island that you have to go through in order to reach the Yeti boss, and then look at the boss fight itself. Which one will likely take more time? Subverted with the Yeti in Yeti's Revenge. The Yeti's attacks last a long time in this fight, and some even Insta-kill Tux.

Big Tux can "butt-jump" and break wood blocks under him. This move also kills frozen enemies (with a few exceptions).

Goomba Springboard: Tux can also springboard off of squished enemies. This is even required in a few locations, and can be abused to bypass parts of a level in others.

The time limit becomes this in Milestone 2. While it was mandatory for every level to have a time limit in Milestone 1, the timer is now an optional feature in Milestone 2.

comment
Incubator Island (actually a set of incompletely implemented levels thought for testing) has a few very hard levels that require many nigh-impossible jumps and dodging of a bunch of Goddamned Bats and Demonic Spiders. These levels tend to cluster in the lower right of the island.

Brutal Bonus Level: Incubator Island (actually a set of incompletely implemented levels thought for testing) has a few very hard levels that require many nigh-impossible jumps and dodging of a bunch of Goddamned Bats and Demonic Spiders. These levels tend to cluster in the lower right of the island. Take the maze of Level C-4 from Super Mario Bros.: The lost levels, multiply its length and make it a freaking fast auto scroller level, and what you will get is roughly comparable to Bonus Island II: Think fast, or die.

1-Up: Zig-Zagged with the Tux Dolls. It's Played Straight in Milestone One, but downplayed in versions before 0.6.1. Each one grants the player 100 extra coins if they catch it, and coins were originally needed to restart from the last checkpoint when Tux dies.

 Supertux (Video Game) / int_d397657d
comment
Hoist by His Own Petard: Some enemies can be stunned and then kicked around like Mario's koopas. Like these, they can defeat other enemies when sliding around, but they can also hurt the player himself when they bounce back from an obstacle. Also, there are particular blocks which burn away when hit by a fireball. Be careful when walking over these blocks with a fire flower, especially when there is a Bottomless Pit underneath. Mooks hit and frozen by an ice ball mid-air will fall down and hurt Tux when he is below.

Action Bomb: There are different types of enemies which explode when hit, such as Mr. Bomb, Haywire and Skydive. Short fuse is special as its explosion does not deal damage but instead knocks the player back, potentially into deadly pits or obstacles.
