The funniest mod I can think of is a bonk counter. Every time you bonk, it adds 1 to the counter. No use other than to make the player feel bad. (Bonus idea: if you get more than 3 bonks, you're locked into the clown mario outfit for the rest of the game)
Mod idea: Every time Mario picks up a moon, he moves a little bit slower. Carrying all those moons around is heavy work! Depositing moons back in the Odyssey returns Mario to full speed
This is surprisingly similar to when DougDoug added a hud element every few minutes, just somehow even less helpful! Except the bird tracker, that's incredibly helpful.
Amethyst is actually a huge fangirl of dougdoug I remember her saying on one of her streams before doug was a guest on hide and seek they should've brought parkzer instead of linkus though
That and the ammo counter should work. Sherms can only shoot 3 bullets, so it would be good to know how many bullets are left to fire. I love the dumb features that do something, but not much.
Mod idea: I worry about Mario’s health. And I would feel better being able to keep an eye on his physical health through a Step tracker with a heartbeat monitor of course in the UI style of Mario’s Apple Watch. Overexertion at his age could be damaging to his overall health 🤫
Sheesh new Amethyst video and even with a special guest. Love you guys :D Also it would be awesome to see fanart of Amy's vtuber model playing with Fir's mascot
I think adding in an Ace Attorney health bar instead of the regular one would be so cool! Watching each segment explode when you take damage would be extremely helpful for Mario gameplay.
I love how in the video a guide said that in the game nerds actually enough coins to buy every outfit no more no fewer and I was just thinking in Luigi’s balloon world you can get infinite coins
Yo, I'm actually on time to someone's video for once! Amethyst is slowly convincing me to learn how to mod SMO for myself. It can't be THAT much harder than modding minecraft, right? Right!?
We need a seperate mod where you can only play the game as wikihow wants you to play it, and not listening to wikihow’s important advice will instantly kill Mario until you get back on track and listen to wikihow. If wikihow tells you a fact that is false (ie, no capturing hat wearing enemies), the game must be changed to make that fact true.
Mod idea: functional rhythm game hud. (First thought was DDR, but there’s lots of options. Find the one that works for you!) Would ideally update to match the current audio track, but making charts for every song in Odyssey may be a task to outsource if at all; random input generation would probably be simpler.
You really saw DougDoug do this and said "OK but what if they were all FUNCTIONAL" and then went and put actual time into making functional silly hud upgrades. I love it so much.
My idea was a Heat-O-Meter, it would go up to more closer Mario gets to something hot and he would die if it went all the way up! The only way it would go down is if you move away from the hot thing! I guess the temperature was basically like my idea.
The high number of Kirby's Return to Dreamland songs made me incredibly happy. The editing of the video was amazing too. Keep it up, Amethyst and Toby!!
The persona 4 HUD was a great idea. If you ever did it again you should add one for cappy as well. His health could be based off of if you have any cap jumps or not.
the terrible giuse book you found in 2:30 -ish gave me an idea: a "terrible tutorial" mod, with funny/meme-y instructions appearing around different spots in the game.
@@fantaaa. yeah, I get that, but I'm picturing a more "in-your-face" tutorial, the kind that pauses the game during the level, and shoves an instruction in your face.
Ayyy nice mine made it to the thumbnail and Fir called it B-tier. Ngl I forgot how good y’all were at the game and that y’all don’t bonk often when speedrunning when I suggested that.
You didn't make Mario's health go down on the P4 on the HUD I am going to literally murder in your sleep. For real though this is actually amazing, reminds me of DougDoug's video where he adds progressively more HUD to SMO, but the fact its interactive makes me want more of this lol. (Also the drip is amazing, I wish I could dress that nice 😭)
Y'know Amysis, Fir was right about it being a missed opportunity about the starbit counter not reflecting how many moon kingdom purples you've collected
Mod idea: Waluigi's Taco Stand. Every so often Waluigi will appear in his omnipresent taco stand and force you to buy a taco, price directly proportional to how much health you can heal. The taco heals you to full health, but if you can't afford it or declines the taco, Waluigi kills you and undoes the last 5 minutes or so of progress you made. Waluigi showing up also disables Mario's movement, but everything continues to move around him, either plays out like an interaction with the player advancing the text and choosing whether or not to buy the taco or an automatic thing where he shows up, rambles for an indeterminate amount of time, then either takes your money and gives you the taco or kills you.
If Mario does a certain action, something annoying spawns or happens. EX: If you bonk, you are teleported to the sphinx, and you can’t leave until you get the second moon questions.
If you do want to make another one of these you could have the luigis balloon world distance from balloon tracker always active for the closest moon or sub area.
Mod idea: quick time events! When trigger conditions are met, time stops/slows to a crawl and one or more button prompts appear on screen. If all prompts are successfully met, play continues as normal. If not, Mario immediately bonks. (Trigger conditions up to you, but the original idea was “when performing advanced movement” e.g. triple jumps, side flips, spin pounds, etc; things that you wouldn't do in quick succession but would be inconvenient to fail. Success/failure fanfare/effects and additional/alternative rewards/penalties may be applied at your discretion.) Advanced variant: the QTE is an entire warioware-type microgame. (Do not do this.)
I was wondering if there is any footage of you working on these mod ideas. I would be really interested in seeing the development process even if it's just a stream vod. Great video
1:20 Well would you look at that, it's me. Out of all the ideas I suggested, the one that got in was my least favorite, lol. In all seriousness, though, I'm honored.
2:38 wikiHow is very clear about cutscenes (why'd you say no to something that could very easily troll speed runners?) Or better: present the skip button that just restarts the cutscene. Edit: even more evil: remap the skip cutscene to a reset (update the text in the menu too) which restarts the game and autosaves. Slightly less evil version sends you back to the start of the kingdom/teleports you to the Odyssey
ok, here's a list of some of these ideas I thought kinda neat 1. the bird counter, but I feel like that could be added upon, like you have the counter of birds in the area you're in, but every time you make a bird go away it goes down by one and a different counter shows how many birds you spooked/killed (Klepto) 2. the coins-for-a-shield thing is neat 3. so is the windows taskbar thing, also I feel like that could have some sort of use in a multiple-kingdom hide and seek thing where it either shows who's in what kingdom or just how many people are in what kingdom 4. the altimeter (short for altitude meter) I feel could also be utilized really well, in that instead of just showing how high off the ground you are, you could show elevation based off a major landmark in the area 5. make the starbit counter work (it increments whenever you collect Moon Kingdom purple coins, and this includes when you recollect them because in Galaxy they respawn) also an extra thing, I feel like an isometric minimap would be really freaking cool
Mod idea: makes every cutsceeen unskippable and any attempt skipping it will force you to watch it from the beginning again. Then hand this to any% speedrunner
Missed opportunity with the ammo being tied to the tanks, and could have made it so that after firing something like 3 shots it had to ‘reload’ and took a few seconds. Would make the metro fight more interesting:
Mod idea: Mario has a Fatigued bar. Basically the bar slowly goes down the longer mario stays away. The more Fatigued he gets, the slower he becomes/less high he can jump/more damage he takes per hit. This can be reset by letting him sleep for 10 seconds, but goes down to empty every 15-20 minutes.
You know weirdly the shield functionality is a pretty good hide and seek mod, maybe cut it down to like 50 so that it entices people to run around and collect them in hopes that they can gain a shield to withstand one tag before actually losing the round.
Bonk mod: Bonk counter and every time you bonk one of the following sound effects plays: "*BONK* go to horny jail", "Vine Boom Sound Effect", "Bruh Sound Effect #2", "Discord Notification Sound"
Mod idea: Whenever mario captures something, his hat gets more tired. after ten captures, cappy falls asleep and you need to idle for long enough for mario to sleep too or sit on a bench for 21 seconds.
Mod idea: when Mario dies, you play as Luigi. When Luigi dies, you play as another character like Peach, so on and so forth with how much different Mario characters you'd like. But! Make sure you don't hop back on a previous character, they're dead afterall, and there are no 1-ups in Mario Odyssey as far as I know. Also, to make it harder to survive, you can make it so you only have one or two health with no health-refill-hearts in the entire game. Don't want to make this mod go unnoticed once you made it!
The funniest mod I can think of is a bonk counter. Every time you bonk, it adds 1 to the counter.
No use other than to make the player feel bad.
(Bonus idea: if you get more than 3 bonks, you're locked into the clown mario outfit for the rest of the game)
I bet CJ could get plenty of use from that
Call it CJ mode
Please do this!
@@TheDigileet that's who i was thinking of when i posted it lol
3 is a little harsh, I say make it at least 5 and preferably closer to 10. Locked into clown outfit is a major debuff.
Mod idea: Every time Mario picks up a moon, he moves a little bit slower. Carrying all those moons around is heavy work! Depositing moons back in the Odyssey returns Mario to full speed
That’s actually good-
Metro Kingdom:
But he is set slightly faster because he is getting stronger
Wait an actually good idea
mario odyssey, but the moons are heavy
This is surprisingly similar to when DougDoug added a hud element every few minutes, just somehow even less helpful!
Except the bird tracker, that's incredibly helpful.
so helpful!
Needed more Rosa-cam :P
Amethyst is actually a huge fangirl of dougdoug I remember her saying on one of her streams before doug was a guest on hide and seek they should've brought parkzer instead of linkus though
@@the_legendary_fire Yooo actually based. One more reason Amethyst is great.
@@the_legendary_fire yesss, the Doug love is strong on this channel!
For the bird counter, imagine it’s actually interactive and only counts the birds when you first person and see them
That's what I thought it was at first lol
Mod idea:make the starbit counter actually work with the starbits on the moon
iirc she said they're just starbit-shaped rocks, not actual starbits
All purple coins are now star bits, even if you change kingdom, your starbit counter stays the same
When Fir was playing she said she forgot that Moon has actual Starbits, so I think she might, if she or anyone ever plays this mod again lol
That and the ammo counter should work. Sherms can only shoot 3 bullets, so it would be good to know how many bullets are left to fire. I love the dumb features that do something, but not much.
Mod idea: I worry about Mario’s health. And I would feel better being able to keep an eye on his physical health through a Step tracker with a heartbeat monitor of course in the UI style of Mario’s Apple Watch. Overexertion at his age could be damaging to his overall health 🤫
Should have had the shrine tracker detect the moon chapel.
big brain
Missed opportunity to link the Shrine Radar to the sub-areas lol
Hilarious video!
I love when pointless hud mods actually do something, even when it’s pointless
Guys, let's help Luigi with his dream of being good at fortnite, and give hundreds of sanity to Fir, Fir's stolen soul and Szs
Sheesh new Amethyst video and even with a special guest. Love you guys :D Also it would be awesome to see fanart of Amy's vtuber model playing with Fir's mascot

I love how in the video a guide said that in the game nerds actually enough coins to buy every outfit no more no fewer and I was just thinking in Luigi’s balloon world you can get infinite coins
That bird counter was greatest thing to watch during Fir’s stream
The point in these videos is to STOP these awful mod comments!
Hey, what could be cool is a mod counter keeping track of how many dumb mods are on screen.
@@Tyboose One. There is one terrible mod idea on my screen.
r u SURE about that
Shouldn't have made a community post specifically asking for awful HUD mods then 😤
What did you say? A mario party mod where you have to pay 20 coins for each moon? Sounds like an awesome idea.
I saw "DVD screensaver" in the intro and thought it was SO much worse. Imagine if Mario bounced around relative to the camera while you played
Yo, I'm actually on time to someone's video for once!
Amethyst is slowly convincing me to learn how to mod SMO for myself. It can't be THAT much harder than modding minecraft, right?
Right!?
*laughs* (it's hard)
but not trying is the only way to fail, so give it your all!! :D
You wish it was easy I failed at coding a model
@@Tobycurrycat actively, no be careful, you can brick your switch
@@GoodOlKappaTea your warnings could never hold me back >:D
Still proud of that time Amethyst called my mod idea "Actually cool."
yes, though it's a shame we're still plagued with terrible ones
It’s a miracle you could beat the games without the controls showing up on stream!
You professional Mario Odyssey players are something else!
it was clearly pre-recorded
@@Tobycurrycat You would know
A bird watching mod actually sounds very lovely for this game
Also the starbit joke made me laugh so hard just because of how silly it is
its kinda sad, how she tells us, how much work she put into the shield mechanic... and then Fir does not even get it ^^'
We need a seperate mod where you can only play the game as wikihow wants you to play it, and not listening to wikihow’s important advice will instantly kill Mario until you get back on track and listen to wikihow. If wikihow tells you a fact that is false (ie, no capturing hat wearing enemies), the game must be changed to make that fact true.
“Hat-wearing enemies can’t be captured” I’m pretty sure that breaks the game lol, at the bare minimum Pokios are required and wear hats.
@@modulusshift Pokios are merely a suggestion for speedrunners 🙂
I like Fir's reaction to the bird counter. (That mod is so cute!) And the DVD one is amazing! Glad it was fun to make/play it!
I have never been more proud to derail a video. Thank you for the opportunity
another fun one! i liked the way footage of both your runs got interlaced
The commitment to actually make most of those work is incredible Amy, really well done!!
Ah, twitch chat. The eternal focus group of the Internet.

Would ideally update to match the current audio track, but making charts for every song in Odyssey may be a task to outsource if at all; random input generation would probably be simpler.
Mario odyssey but it’s like mario party, need to roll a dice to move and you need to buy moons
Terrible idea I love it
i can't beleive you did this absolute madlad of a person thank you for these AmaZInG mods
7:07 "that's cursed" "what do you mean it's cursed?" is the perfect summary of this mod
this is a mario moment
true
Obviously missing a mustache integrity meter, gotta be sure Mario’s main feature stays healthy
You really saw DougDoug do this and said "OK but what if they were all FUNCTIONAL" and then went and put actual time into making functional silly hud upgrades. I love it so much.
My idea was a Heat-O-Meter, it would go up to more closer Mario gets to something hot and he would die if it went all the way up! The only way it would go down is if you move away from the hot thing! I guess the temperature was basically like my idea.
I'm loving your move to a more confident youtube channel, it's awesome
The high number of Kirby's Return to Dreamland songs made me incredibly happy. The editing of the video was amazing too. Keep it up, Amethyst and Toby!!
aww thank you so much!! We appreciate the support
The persona 4 HUD was a great idea. If you ever did it again you should add one for cappy as well. His health could be based off of if you have any cap jumps or not.
I love these vids with the community keep doing them 😊
Since this is Minecraft, Mario's needs a toolbar that shows the durability of everything he's using
Honestly I don't see enough crazy hud mods. This is excellent.
You should make a mod where it just says “subscribe to amethyst” in the middle of the screen in red text, in impact font. Also love these videos!!!
hide n seek with the stamina mod could be fun to see how they manage it
Mod idea: Mario needs glasses, every time Mario blinks the screen gets 1% blurrier, but he can buy glasses from any store to restore his vision
the terrible giuse book you found in 2:30 -ish gave me an idea: a "terrible tutorial" mod, with funny/meme-y instructions appearing around different spots in the game.
it’s wikihow, every tutorial there is a terrible tutorial
@@fantaaa. yeah, I get that, but I'm picturing a more "in-your-face" tutorial, the kind that pauses the game during the level, and shoves an instruction in your face.
awful idea, 10/10
@@אביתרשטראוס oh yea, I get it, I was talking about the fact that you said it was a “guide book.” also that’s a terrible idea and I love it
I love how she actually implemented the mechanics instead of them just all being a hud thing
I love it
One mod idea that I've seen said before that's actually amazing is a Prop Hunt gamemode for SMO online.
7:29 Hey look, a Me!
Ayyy nice mine made it to the thumbnail and Fir called it B-tier. Ngl I forgot how good y’all were at the game and that y’all don’t bonk often when speedrunning when I suggested that.
proud of you!
Mod idea: every time you make progress towards one of Toadette's stars, it shows that star's progress on screen for a few seconds.
Why are you giving her good mod ideas? Smh
@@LokearEVERY JUMP
You didn't make Mario's health go down on the P4 on the HUD I am going to literally murder in your sleep.
For real though this is actually amazing, reminds me of DougDoug's video where he adds progressively more HUD to SMO, but the fact its interactive makes me want more of this lol.
(Also the drip is amazing, I wish I could dress that nice 😭)
I can just see Mario, taking his hat off to activate his persona
Fir popping off for the birds made me so happy
The enthousiasm of Fir about the birds!
Here's an actually decent mod idea:
Replace all instances of Mario's name with the profile name, like used on the Hide and Seek HUD
Y'know Amysis, Fir was right about it being a missed opportunity about the starbit counter not reflecting how many moon kingdom purples you've collected
PART 3 WE WANT PART 3
Such a fun video again!!! The 2 parallel footages from you and fir work so well together!
Also why not make the sheikah sensor track moons, which are also just called shrines in the code smh
Amy's mental health does not want a part 3
You sure about that? big money can influence mental health
the shrine tracker can track pretty much any creature or item type in the game when you upgrade it. you could've had it track goombas or something
Mod idea: Waluigi's Taco Stand. Every so often Waluigi will appear in his omnipresent taco stand and force you to buy a taco, price directly proportional to how much health you can heal. The taco heals you to full health, but if you can't afford it or declines the taco, Waluigi kills you and undoes the last 5 minutes or so of progress you made.

20:18 Amy says there’s totally star bits in super Mario odyssey, but we knew she forgot about the moon kingdom, we all do.
6:46 The reveal of Fir's added mod coincidentally looking _exactly_ like his real time video absolutely sent me.
I love waking up at 8 PM to find a new Amethyst video ready to watch! Well done, as always!
every Saturday!
If Mario does a certain action, something annoying spawns or happens. EX: If you bonk, you are teleported to the sphinx, and you can’t leave until you get the second moon questions.
The Wikihow was definitely helpful tho. I can see where the game journalists learned how to play the game.
The fact that the temperature mod and bird counter are PERFECTLY accurate (game dev wise) is actually really funny to me.
this is what happens when your family uses the computer and adds more viruses and a bunch of stuff just starts showing up
If you do want to make another one of these you could have the luigis balloon world distance from balloon tracker always active for the closest moon or sub area.
Mod idea: quick time events! When trigger conditions are met, time stops/slows to a crawl and one or more button prompts appear on screen.

Success/failure fanfare/effects and additional/alternative rewards/penalties may be applied at your discretion.)
Advanced variant: the QTE is an entire warioware-type microgame. (Do not do this.)
I would love to see a hide and seek game with the stamina and sanity meter, maybe even the shield to protect against one tag
You say it was bad...but fir actually liked the bird counter. And even you liked it at the start
Mod idea: if you ever scare away a bird, you become locked in the clown outfit for the next minute
always making good and fun vids... keep it up szs!
how about adding a dash to marios moveset similar to celeste's dash (if possible also include advanced movement like wavedashing)
i love this team up. true mlm wlw solidarity
Shoutout to Fir going along with this, fun to watch!!
Mod idea: Mario randomly changes size ranging from super tiny, to super huge, at random intervals.
Bwhoa, a lot of those mods were pretty ridiculous elements. The bird tracker was super groovy, though, keep that one alive please. ^_^
I was wondering if there is any footage of you working on these mod ideas. I would be really interested in seeing the development process even if it's just a stream vod.
Great video
There was that one video she did where she tried to implement a trick score system in only a few hours.
@@PriffyViole ik and I loved that video but tbf I code myself so it might not be as interesting for most people
we were considering doing more code-focused videos for TH-cam Members 🤔
You should have added the wiki how guide text when Cappy tells you tips when flying to a new kingdom.
1:20 Well would you look at that, it's me. Out of all the ideas I suggested, the one that got in was my least favorite, lol.
In all seriousness, though, I'm honored.
Mod idea: randomly another mario appears in game but has a custom skin on and he just stays there no matter what happens.
2:38 wikiHow is very clear about cutscenes (why'd you say no to something that could very easily troll speed runners?)
Or better: present the skip button that just restarts the cutscene.
Edit: even more evil: remap the skip cutscene to a reset (update the text in the menu too) which restarts the game and autosaves.
Slightly less evil version sends you back to the start of the kingdom/teleports you to the Odyssey
You are a menace
@@thexninjapokemon9461 🫡
ok, here's a list of some of these ideas I thought kinda neat
1. the bird counter, but I feel like that could be added upon, like you have the counter of birds in the area you're in, but every time you make a bird go away it goes down by one and a different counter shows how many birds you spooked/killed (Klepto)
2. the coins-for-a-shield thing is neat
3. so is the windows taskbar thing, also I feel like that could have some sort of use in a multiple-kingdom hide and seek thing where it either shows who's in what kingdom or just how many people are in what kingdom
4. the altimeter (short for altitude meter) I feel could also be utilized really well, in that instead of just showing how high off the ground you are, you could show elevation based off a major landmark in the area
5. make the starbit counter work (it increments whenever you collect Moon Kingdom purple coins, and this includes when you recollect them because in Galaxy they respawn)
also an extra thing, I feel like an isometric minimap would be really freaking cool
Oh boi, a new video! Hope it will be great
Yes it was!
I just wanna talk about how good that cut at 14:59 is. it's basically flawless
Mod idea: makes every cutsceeen unskippable and any attempt skipping it will force you to watch it from the beginning again. Then hand this to any% speedrunner
16:36 if you look really closely the dvd hit the corner behind Fir's webcam
Should have added a CC meter from Mario kart, it tracks how fast tank captures and scooters are
Missed opportunity with the ammo being tied to the tanks, and could have made it so that after firing something like 3 shots it had to ‘reload’ and took a few seconds. Would make the metro fight more interesting:
Mod idea: Mario has a Fatigued bar. Basically the bar slowly goes down the longer mario stays away. The more Fatigued he gets, the slower he becomes/less high he can jump/more damage he takes per hit. This can be reset by letting him sleep for 10 seconds, but goes down to empty every 15-20 minutes.
I can't believe the shrine indicator is just a still image, such a disappointment...
Mod Idea: The Persona party tracker should track Mario's health (and stamina when enabled) for it's bars.
You know weirdly the shield functionality is a pretty good hide and seek mod, maybe cut it down to like 50 so that it entices people to run around and collect them in hopes that they can gain a shield to withstand one tag before actually losing the round.
Bonk mod: Bonk counter and every time you bonk one of the following sound effects plays: "*BONK* go to horny jail", "Vine Boom Sound Effect", "Bruh Sound Effect #2", "Discord Notification Sound"
god the fact that for the most part some of these dont bother me is hilarious
Ok so make Mario a pirate with one eye
- Permanent eye patch cosmetic
- And you can only see half of the screen at a time
terrible idea, 10/10
Mod idea: Whenever mario captures something, his hat gets more tired. after ten captures, cappy falls asleep and you need to idle for long enough for mario to sleep too or sit on a bench for 21 seconds.
When the dvd logo touches the corner, it kills Mario (also add 10 dvd logos)
Mod idea: when Mario dies, you play as Luigi. When Luigi dies, you play as another character like Peach, so on and so forth with how much different Mario characters you'd like. But! Make sure you don't hop back on a previous character, they're dead afterall, and there are no 1-ups in Mario Odyssey as far as I know. Also, to make it harder to survive, you can make it so you only have one or two health with no health-refill-hearts in the entire game. Don't want to make this mod go unnoticed once you made it!
