Enjoyed this game way more than I probably should have for how simplistic everything about it is. However, I found myself playing this game for multiple hours trying to see how far I could because of how easy I found the game. I'm usually quite terrible at fighting games like these, but this one I was able to just keep going and going until I finally got too tired to keep going.

A game I originally started playing just to see what it was on the SNES NSO App and ended up being intrigued by the setting and aesthetic of the game. I usually don't like action platformers, but this game kept me engaged through most of it. The game is mostly held back by a difficulty spike in the latter half of the game and its overreliance on maintaining your most powerful power up to keep the difficulty reasonable. Otherwise, definitely the most enjoyable action platformer I have played.

What has been said about this game that hasn't already? From start to finished I was amazed with how consistently creative the developers of this game were in the creation of this game's world, level design, and gameplay mechanics. This was an absolute joy to complete, bringing me to excitement about the future of 2D Mario for the first time since the disapppointing releases of NSMBU and NMSB2.
