General Commentary and Game Overview

This game doesn't deserve to die. It deserves to be slowly and painfully punished over years and years of constant, ceaseless agony.

Pros

-The debug buttons make it beatable. Not playable, but beatable.
-The concept is interesting. Too bad everything else about it SUCKS!

Cons

Where do I even start?
-It's. SO. UGLY. The graphics clash HORRIBLY.
-IT'S. SO. UNPLAYABLE. The controls are slippery as all Hell. (Or rather, "Hell-o")
-IT'S. SO. BORING. The levels are just crappy rehashes of existing game levels and no time, thought, or effort was put into it at all!
-IT'S. SO. LONG. I finally saved the right friggin' Princess, and I rejoiced with the knowledge that I would never have to sit through this waste of memory again.
And then it sucker-punched me in the gut with the words, "7 Years Later".
I promptly slew the fiend before it could deal any further damage to my soul.

Impressions

Gameplay 1 / 10	Oh, where do I begin? As you may expect, you are Mario, traipsing through the Mushroom Kingdom to save Peach (and apparently a bunch of other girls from random games that don't belong there 'cuz ORIGINALITY!! XD :P :O ) from Bowser. Haven't heard that one before. Doesn't seem too bad, does it? Well, don't put your pitchforks down just yet. Trust me; it gets worse. First off, the controls. ...Hello. Moving on. The next thing you notice is the level design. I kid you not, the majority of the game is crappy remakes of levels from existing, better Mario games. Placing Boos in the first level of Super Mario 2 DOES NOT MAKE IT ANY LESS THE FIRST LEVEL OF SUPER MARIO 2 YOU WASTE OF OXYGEN AND THOUGHT!! You're better off just playing Mario All-Stars. The parts of the game that weren't deformed rip-offs were a few custom levels of the creator's own imagination. His imagination is akin to that of a cardboard box eating dry toast in a beige necktie in an office cubicle on a Monday morning. The most fun I had playing this game was pressing "W" to see how high my life counter would go. I almost crashed the game, which would have only made the experience better. What else can I say? To anyone unfortunate enough to still want to play this disemboweling of imagination: W = 100 Lives P = Power-Up S = Starman And my personal favorite: N = Next Level. On every screen, press "N". You will thank me later. Not even the CHEAT CODES are creative. This game is not even worth deleting. It shall sit in my Recycle Bin, untouched, banished until the end of time.
Graphics 1 / 10	Aside from the control, the graphics are the worst part of this game. The "game" has no style of its own; it just takes sprites and horribly ripped backgrounds from countless Mario games that, you will notice, each have their own unique style. Unique. As in each style stands on its own, and is completely different from every other. I'll give you a hint: THEY DO NOT GO WELL TOGETHER. Tell me, have you ever ripped sprites before? What the hell happened with most of the non-Mario characters? They're blurry and out of focus and out of place. Did you just take a picture of the screen with your camera and Photoshop the characters in? Because that's what it looks like. And don't even get me started on the custom sprites. Do I approve of custom graphics? Heck yeah I do. Do I approve of ugly, boring, emotionless graphics that were made with a total lack of love and interest in a five-minute romp through MS Paint? Heck no I don't.
Sound 4 / 10	The music appears to be a mix of MP3 and MIDI files. I'm guessing you did not see the problem with that. Though I admit, the tracks themselves could have been much, much worse.
Replay 1 / 10	Why would I EVER want to play this steaming pile of goat crap again?? It was painful enough the first time!

Final Words

F*** this game. It's a soulless, half-assed, glitchy, ungodly boring, heinous piece of deceased creativity.
