By Team Starshroom - Part of CYON of Gaia's SUPER MARIO RE:MIX
As a result of Marioman2007 and I finally finishing the main framework for replicating the gameplay of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, we planned on adding levels themed around "Captain Toad's Adventures" in our main project, Captain Toad Goes to Outer Space. However, we found out that it was fun to make short puzzles and levels themed around the mechanic of "being unable to jump". This resulted in the birth of our new side project - Captain Toad: Prism Star Quest!STORYLINE
It is a few days before Princess Peach celebrates her birthday, and everyone is preparing gifts for her, including Mario and Luigi. But only one has not decided on a gift for her yet, and that is renowned treasure tracker and expert adventurer, Captain Toad!
At the same time, big news spread throughout Toad Town, this time about the rumors surrounding the legends of the big, rainbow-colored Prism Star and the veracity of its existence. Allegedly being the rarest Power Star in the Mushroom Kingdom, it's no surprise that news about such an extremely valuable treasure would reach Captain Toad's ears. He decides that the Prism Star might be the best gift for Princess Peach, and so he sets out on a big adventure throughout the kingdom to retrieve it.
Only problem is dealing with the dastardly Kuroku the Raccoon Thief, who runs into him at the familiar Mushroom Ruins. Kuroku seeks the Prism Star too for he wants to add it to his collection of big treasures, eventually selling it off to become the richest thief in the whole world. With differing motives but the same goal, Captain Toad and Kuroku's rivalry kickstarts. Now it's up to you to help Captain Toad race to the Prism Star first and retrieve it, especially as a big birthday present for Princess Peach!
FEATURES
Captain Toad: Prism Star Quest combines the "no-jumping" gameplay of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker & the "Captain Toad's Adventures" levels in Super Mario 3D World with that of the 2D side-scrolling gameplay of traditional Mario platformers.

- A modern take on the SMW art style
- No major involvement of Bowser and his minions! A new main antagonist takes center stage! (And is voiced!)

Featuring over 28+ levels spanning across Earth and even seven alien planets, Captain Toad Goes to Outer Space is a reboot of my cancelled SMBX 1.3 project, Toad Goes to Outer Space. With Planet Mars on a sudden collision course, can you help Captain Toad and the Toad Brigade save Planet Earth from an apocalyptic doom, while finding the root cause of everything?
