SM64: Stars of the Beast is a ROM Hack made by Milgram355 released on May 25th, 2018. It contains 140 Stars and has one of the highest number of Stars required to battle against Final Bowser (referred as The Beast).
It is qualified as a hard hack (according to many players: 5/5 difficulty) but not as difficult as some ROM Hacks like: "King Boo's Revenge", "Super Mario Treasure World", "SM64 Masters Challenge" etc. It is known for the use of slippery terrain and wind in many levels and there are very well hidden Stars. The difficulty increases as you challenge the 2nd Bowser Course and increases more in the last 6 Worlds (called "The Big Six"), especially getting their 100-coin Stars.
This hack has some references, most notably to Iron Maiden, and there are level designs that are references to Mario Party and Pokémon.
There is a sequel, released in the following year called "Stars of the Beast 2: Legend of the Crystal Stars".
