Type "danceparty" in the credits screen of Deus Ex. Make sure you have cheats enabled.

When the light comes through the ceiling it reflects of the castle's interior blue paint, making the window's background to appear more blue. Looking at the windows from the other side, the light is coming straight from the sun so it's purple which is a more accurate representation of the glass color.

This game really should have communicated the character's situations better. I thought that Toad and the Princess were literally sealed inside the walls.

I still don't quite understand what the deal was.

Then why could we see the Toads?
And Peach just kinda... appeared magically in front of the window. We didn't need to take a hammer to the walls to free her.

I know Bowser is supposed to have magical powers and shit but they've always done a shit job of showcasing that. We only ever see the brute force side of him and the occasional magical attack in a boss battle.

Lore threads are cancer. They're nothing more than unfounded speculation.

It runs on a retro platform (1999 PC hardware) so it's retro. Sorry false flagger.

It's too abstract for that. The plot just barely exists, it's a premise to set up some paintings you can jump into and have a good time, that's it. 3D platformers would go on to actually kind of stipulate on the characters and plot details but Mario 64 is from the older days. Back when platformers might have a few sentences to inform you what your goal might look like but it was expected that you would just try to reach the end of the level and not ask any questions.

The game was telling you where to look for levels, dipshit. Some of them are inside walls with no paintings. There is no "lore".
