General Commentary and Game Overview

For a really old, scrapped game this should be good. Too bad it wasn't released earlier... or finished.

Pros	+ Custom graphics + Somewhat unique idea + Controls aren't very slippery
Cons	- Music gets old - Un-explanatory controls - Only 1 level - Enemies push you back REALLY far - Some glitches

Impressions

Gameplay 7 / 10	The gameplay was overall fine. At least it wasn't a Hello engine or SMB3 clone. I would give the gameplay a higher score, but sadly no controls are explained to the player. I guess every MFGG platformer uses these controls though. But seriously, who knew you could jump through these platforms? I couldn't find out until I read Cap'n Coconut's review. Did I mention the huge bounce you get when an enemy hits you?
Graphics 9 / 10	Honestly, I didn't see a lot of clashes in the graphics. Lots of games use sprites with outlines and no outlines in the tileset. Paper Mario, Mario and Luigi, probably a lot more than just the Mario RPGs but those were the ones I could think of. Also, they were entirely custom graphics which made me feel a lot better than, say, SMAS SMB3 graphics. My only complaint is that the koopa looks odd, more like it was just ripped and recolored from MLSS.
Sound 3 / 10	It sounded fine for a minute, but the loop if very short and it gets old. Plus, it sounded like regular 20-40 volume at 6 volume. Sound effects were okay...? I suggest you mute your computer while playing this.
Replay 1 / 10	What replay value? It's not even a demo. It's 1 extremely confusing level.

Final Words

It's not a good game, but for a scrapped 7 year old game it's not so bad.
