Over the years I've attempted to play Mario Sunshine a number of times and with every attempt I got further but ultimately I would end up dropping it due to not vibing with the controls. I don't think the Fludd was a good replacement for the long jump or the crouch jump. The freedom of doing any level whenever the player feels like is totally gone instead forcing you go through the first seven shines in each level no matter how monotonous or just downright terrible they are. Aesthetically the game is nice and to be fair the first few levels were fine. The frustration didn't set in until the second half of the game with the last three levels. Also is it just me or is the camera worse here than in Mario 64?
