Turn Your Computer Screen Into A Super Mario Bros Level With Screentendo

Thanks to the programming brilliance of Aaron Randall, you can turn your computer’s screen into a level from the original Super Mario Bros. using his new program, Screentendo. The desktop app essentially allows you to place a resizable, semi-transparent window over an area on your computer screen. And whatever text or content you have in the window will then become a playable Mario level.

If you check out Randall’s blog, you’ll see that he gives a step-by-step guide on how to install Screentendo on your computer. But make sure to grab the required code from GitHub right here in order to do so. While the game is indeed playable, Randall has admitted that it’s not quite perfect yet, and that a few things need additional tweaking.  For many Nintendo fans, though, it’s a neat coding trick to lighten up any day – with or without the Tanooki suit.
