Overview

Mansion of Madness is Sucht93a's sixth custom track. It is a crazy trip through a mansion completely overloaded with crazy objects, mean traps, hard parts, and luck parts. It features a crab disco, a spike wall (WLwallGC), a Melting Magma Melee-like section, colorful camouflage Wigglers, Bullet Bills (VolcanoBall1), and a "Life or Death" roulette right before the finish line (VolcanoRock1). The style is a tribute to tracks such as Color Wonderland, Castle of Darkness and Disco Fever. Due to a massive online Slow Motion Bug, a lot of objects had to be deleted in later versions.

There are two versions of the track: a version with a predictable "Life or Death" roulette and fairer objects in general, and a version with an unpredictable roulette. This is so people can choose if they want to have a more competitive race or a more luck-based race for their distributions.

Trivia

  • v1.2-alt1.8610's Easter egg was the first-ever intentional use of a bug involving the TwistedWay object that produces an "upwarp" effect if underneath the object.
  • The version name "v1.2-alt1.8610" is both a reference to a player in the competitive custom track community, as well as a joke referencing the very high amount of private test versions Silverr released.
