General Commentary and Game Overview

Hello hands us a collection of remastered levels from his previous games in celebration of 10 years of making fangames.

Pros	+ Nicer graphics than most Hello games...
Cons	- Boring gameplay - Overall mediocre graphics - Boring level design - Awkward dialogue - Horrendous ways of self promotion - Annoying, overused voice clips - Very little effort seems to have been put into this game

Impressions

Gameplay 2 / 10	I have no doubts that Hello is a great programmer. His engine is pretty good! So why doesn't he take the time to make a unique game rather than slightly modify his existing engine? Probably because it's easier not to. Consequently, it plays just like most of Hello's games. Mario's movement seems to be exactly the same, and the enemies all function the same way. There isn't anything at all unique about this game. Not even a creative storyline to somewhat bring up the poor gameplay, and that's a real shame. I feel like something really creative could have been done with the story, but oh well. The level design on it's own is okay. It's not too horrendous, but it doesn't really stand out. None of it is clever or unique, and some levels are just... bad. Oh, and then there is the dialogue. I won't quote the cheesy, egotistical self advertisement that the town NPCs nonsensically blabber out when you talk to them since another review has already done that. But lets just say that the town dialogue is extremely cringe-worthy. Outside of the town, the dialogue isn't much better. It's all really flat and none of the NPCs have any sort of character.
Graphics 4 / 10	Meh. The graphics are, for the mostpart, pretty bland. There are some pretty parts of the game, and there are some parts where I can tell that Hello tried to change things up a bit, but the majority of the game is boring to look at.
Sound 2 / 10	The music is nothing special at all. It isn't bad, but it's not memorable. Also, Mario's voice clips make me want to murder him. Not that the clips are bad, they have just been used SO MANY TIMES by Hello (and every Hello Engine clone). Please, change it up a bit.
Replay 1 / 10	Unfortunately, it's a pretty weak game. I won't be coming back to it as there is nothing to draw me in.

Final Words

A boring collection of levels from boring games, complete with cheesy self-advertisement.
