Earthbound Halloween Hack

The EarthBound Halloween Hack (also known as Press the B Button, Stupid!) is a famous 2008 ROM hack of the SNES game EarthBound, created by Toby Fox (who later created Undertale). Released for a competition on Starmen.net, the hack presents a dark alternate timeline where Ness does not return to Onett. Players control Varik (from the Brandish series) investigating a gruesome mystery. The hack is noted for its dark tone and for being the debut of the iconic music track Megalovania, which Fox composed for the final boss battle.
