Super Mario Flash

DongSuper Mario Flash (also known and abbreviated as SMF1) is the first of two online games developed by Pouetpu and released on pouetpu.pbworks.com before the creation of Pouetpu-games site. Super Mario Flash is entirely based off of the Nintendo game "Super Mario Bros.", and also combines several features of different games such "Super Mario Bros. 3" and "Super Mario World".
The levels and map (to the right) shown in "1 player game" are also new made by Pouetpu himself.
The main feature of this game is that includes a level editor so the players could make their own levels and share it on the forum/site so other players could test them and rate them.
Super Mario Flash also includes two protagonists: Mario and Luigi.
Its successor is Super Mario Flash 2, an official game made few years later due to the success of the game.
NOTE: The community has moved to level palace and has a new game called Super Mario Construct.

== Game hacks ==
Super Mario Flash 1 has some game hacks made by different users. These hacks only change the graphics of the game and do not add any extra elements which you can use in the Level Editor.
* Super Toad Flash
* SMF1 Urban Edition
* Super Mario Flash Galaxy
* Mittenland Mario Flash
* Super Mario Bros Flash
* Fast Mario
* Super Mario Flash: Candy Edition
* Super Softendo Flash (by capedmariok)
These hacks might only change the graphics of the game, but one hack is called Super Mario Flash Ver. E created by Hiro, which adds new elements to the game:
* More items (Poison Mushroom and the 1-Up)
* Ability to place items in brick blocks and invisible blocks
* Axe, Magic Ball, Cloud objects, Fire Bars are now moved to the Objects section and now colored for other themes
* Bigger tileset, including Brick Blocks and ? Blocks colored for other themes.
* More themes! (Hills, Rock, Autumn, Night, Dark, Waterfall, 3 other versions of the Castle theme, etc.)
* 2 Bowser types: Normal Bowser and Hammer Bowser, Goomba for the Castle theme.
* More music (11 new tracks, e.g. Bonus Area theme, the original Castle theme)
Super Mario Flash 10 by Softendo is also another game, adding new elements and another interface. The interface is based off Windows 10 and can be found on Level Palace or the original website. The latest version is v10.5.13071 and has been made in 2019. You can only create your own levels in the game.
It has some advantages over Hiro's SMF ver. E, like Tile 301 (custom question block, spawn any item you like). But, as in the original game, you can't put items inside brick blocks.
== Trivia ==
* The level design is based off Mario NES games, but the actual aesthetics are ripped from Super Mario All-Stars.
* This game is rarely used when compared to its successor on PG nowadays.
* The user "Softendo" made an un-official new version of SMF1: v4.0, which can be found on ShareSWF.
