General Commentary and Game Overview
So, I was looking at the new uploads on MFGG. and I saw this, so I was interested and downloaded it.
 
Pros +Working battle system
+Level up system
 
Cons -Always 3 enemies in a battle
-Floating blocks everywhere
-Little enemy variety
 
Impressions
Gameplay
4 / 10
Outside of battles, Mario is his usual self, though with the lower jump I found some gaps nearly impossible to jump, and enemies as well. So battles were mostly required, and the action commands are nearly pixel-perfect. Healing becomes a major issue. The battles also get extremely repetitive, and what is up with the random 8-bit Marios that suddenly appear? The platforming is hard and boring and there are way too many floating blocks with no supporting items and everything looks the same as well. This makes it hard to distinguish areas from one another, so I sadly can't enjoy this game very much.
 
Graphics
7 / 10
The graphics do a good job at representing the paper items and such, with the flat rotating and use of PM graphics. This is probably the best thing about the game.
 
Sound
5 / 10
The music was nothing special, though it wasn't SMB 3 MIDIs, so I'll take it
 
Replay
1 / 10
With the repetitive battles and little variety, this game doesn't have very much replay value.
 
Final Words
5 / 10
As Lisa said: Ehh.

Now I could be wrong, but I think he's making a Simpsons reference. Either that, or at some point in history the subject of the Mona Lisa painting famously uttered "Ehh" in response to a Mario fangame.

I think it's the latter, if you ask me.
