Luigi's Mansion 64.5 is a ROM hack made by Mariocrash. It was released around 2016, and contains 111 Stars (renamed Starlings). It is the sequel to Luigi's Mansion 64.
There are two versions of this game, Easy Mode and Super Player Mode. As their names suggest, Super Player Mode has been modified to be more difficult, although Easy Mode is still slightly more difficult than the original Luigi's Mansion 64. Many of the stars are the same in both versions, with some with a different name and location. In contrast, four of the secret stages do not reappear unlike in the regular game.
In mid-year 2022, just like the prequel, the hack was re-released with the improved Luigi control/moveset, and the same reduced requirements.
Plot[]
The events of the game take place after the events of the original Luigi's Mansion 64, after King Boo disappeared. The castle has become mysteriously quiet, and Luigi must retrieve the Starlings to bring light back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
