General Commentary and Game Overview
Looks like it's time for me to add some wood to this fire.
 
Pros +It at least works
 
Cons -Mundane gameplay
-Average graphics
-A lack of sound effects
-Has less soul than Hello clones
 
Impressions
Gameplay
2 / 10
The game borrows heavily from Flappy Bird. Just press space over and over to fly through the pipe and score points. Sounds simple, right? Yes, the gameplay is very simple. In fact, that's all there is to the gameplay. If you're going to clone a game with a Mario theme that doesn't have more substance than Pong, at least try to make the game more Mario-like. I mean, this is Mario we're talking about here! Add some powerups, Paratroopas, coins...at the very least something that doesn't compete with Spoopy Maryo for least amount of gameplay!
 
Graphics
4 / 10
I really don't know what to say about the graphics. There's SMAS backgrounds and pipes, complete with M&L SS Raccoon Mario. They're fine on their own, but I feel like they kinda clash.
 
Sound
1 / 10
We've got a grand total of 4 sound effects here: A starting sound, a flapping sound, a "going through pipe" sound, and a failing sound. And hey--just like Flappy Bird, there's no music. I know that you were trying to copy Flappy Bird here, but come on! Are you telling me that you can't use Mario music? MARIO music?
 
Replay
1 / 10
I only replayed this a few times to see if there was anything new worth playing through. All I got was different backgrounds. Yay?
 
Final Words
1 / 10
I applaud your willingness to try and take other games and put a Mario spin on them, but why was Flappy Bird a good idea? Next thing you know is that he'll be cloning 2048!
