Entry 2 : September 1st, 2023


Hello all, welcome to another entry of this online diary.

Last time I encountered a mario level and forgot to record the fact that I finished it and got the second golden present. When I went back into the room of doors, I decided to go back to the table and see there is now a present and a balloon with the number "99" on it. I try entering the third door but something peculiar happens.

I cannot enter it.
No seriously, I cannot enter the door. It tells me that I need 2 of them but I have two of the golden presents already. I decided to check around in the cover of the manual - it has the notes afterall - and I find a note that mentions a code. This code is up up up down left up up down down down down down right start. I enter this and it plays a weird animation of the camera going into the door.
I then get presented with a loading screen. After that loading screen I find myself in a corn maze. Below is a very bad rendition of the map I somehow was stuck on for 3 hours.

how the hell did I get stuck here

Besides that, I eventually got the end where I got the golden present. I came back into the world and I saved it before I went to the table, where it crashed. This crash was in fact so bad, that I actually could not boot up the PS1 anymore. It was THAT bad.

See you next time when I can get it to work again I guess??
