General Commentary and Game Overview
Mario is clearly 2D and not 3D here. I want my money back.
 
Pros + Impressive for its time (and maybe even today)
+ The graphics and music are very alright
 
Cons - It's just one simple level so there isn't very much to experience
 
Impressions
Gameplay
3 / 10
The engine is functional enough. Mario feels a bit slow and heavy, but not to an annoying degree.

The level design is... not good. The singular level in the demo feels more like a stretched-out engine test. You can stomp or fireball Goombas, hit blocks, collect coins and stars, and... that's about it.

Basically, this demo is impressive for a 2006 release, but not a very fun experience in and of itself.
 
Graphics
7 / 10
They're alright. Not particularly notable, but not terrible either.
 
Sound
7 / 10
Same as before. Not annoyed, not impressed.
 
Final Words
4 / 10
A tech demo that's impressive for its time, but doesn't offer much value if you're not interested in the history of fan games. If you are, though, it's worth a quick play.
