Completed Any%, "In Water" ending

Completed Any%, Non 1CC, plan to 1CC on future attempts.

DNF reason: lack of solid direction to main quest, overall unimpressive combat and general gameplay. World is very solid, I plan to read the novelization.

2020

Completed an uncountable number of times

DNF Reason: Aggravation. Bad game.

Is as engaging and challenging for a puzzle platformer as it is a fluid and fun Mario game, which is to say it isn't. Genuinely one of the worst Mario games I've ever played. Extremely stiff controls, awful AWFUL music and sound effects, horribly monotonous level design that at times made me aware of my own mortality and the wasted seconds of my lifespan I spent playing this game. Absolute travesty, stay away. I do not understand how this got a remake, but I hope that is at least improved.
