I am doing a little called the 5 games in 10 days contest. I am making each one based around the same theme. The first one will be this one (mario on land) second will be mario under water 3rd will be mario flying. i haven't made a 4th and 5th idea yet though.\

Anyway use the arrows to move and space to shoot fire balls. the up arrow key is the jump button. you can only shoot fire balls after you get the fire flower.

(hint bowsers head isn't as spikey as it looks)

The sprites have that line thing on top of them and it just isn't that good. More levels and more baddies work be nice.

Try to get more creative on these games...the song was alright, but the game seemed to barely function...also, the Fire Flower was right by the entrance...try to give this a makeover, then submit a better version, that's my advice.

I was prepared to hate this game and then the song picked up. pretty genius really. still will only get you so far but it seems you have talent considering that personal contest of yours. good work then.

It's ok but I think this is just a rip off of the normal super mario games =/
Also can't you hop on enemies? I tried it and it didn't work >_< So that's either a glitch or it needs to be a major thing to be fixed.

You should know it takes more than 2 days to make a really good game. If you took more time and tested the game out more you would have found that mario doesn't land on the bricks.

To be honest this was a poorly designed game. Ther grapics wern't all to great, and the music was bad. It looks like you didn't put much effort into it, so better luck with the next game and keep trying.

"Needs improving... a LOT of improving"

I only played this game for 2 minutes and I already spotted a few things which put me off the game.

1) That song is annoying and cheesy. Change it.

2) The fireball unexplainably screws up and doesn't kill the goomba or plants.

3) Collision detection. I collected the coin right above the plant and it killed me. What the hell?

4) Same as above for the Goomba, except the game froze and wouldn't let me restart.

5) I went through the bricks. Again, what the hell?

The only reason I'm giving this a 1 is because the controls are nice and simple.

Take more time with thses games, fix the bugs and don't do 5 games in 10 days because without testing and a good amount of fixing and stuff, all of them will be terrible.

Overall, this was dreadful.

"There really isn't much constructive criticism..."

I mean, not only was the game AMAZINGLY glitchy, but it also had:
- Poor sprite work
- ...Squares? Bassically made with the square tool? Seriously?
- MORE poor sprite work
- A song that doesn't belong
- Fireball is totally useless as it doesn't work except rarely andddd it only kills one enemy in the level anyway...which you can skip.
- You can't even get past the first set of blocks? There is no
"Land right above it", as no matter how many differant ways you land you pass through it.

All I can see is really just rethink the style and try a bit harder, brush up on your sprite work and try to animate him using more then 3 sprites...
But then again, This is to be expected if you are doing a 5 games in 10 days contest.

As far as I can

"Not Great..."

date: July 14, 2008

As said in a previous review (ShadowWest2k7), do not do a "5 games in 10 days". This game is very buggy and I only played for about 30 seconds before I was horribly bored.

Firstly, I think the sprites need to be re-done, or at least centred correctly, as white space above the Piranha Plants is not helpful, neither is Mario falling through the edges of the boxes.

Also, I do not agree with you when you say the music is "awesome", it is very bad and not really game material.

The only thing good is the controls. It's a shame you have rushed this and not centred the sprites correctly. This has the potential to be a good game but only if you put hard work and concentration into it.

ok, well first i must say great choose for the song (super mario rpg rawest forest rap ftw) but other then the song and controles (which are great btw) the rest of the game wasent that good. it had awful hit detection, you fall through the floor if you dont land right smack in the middle (reminds me of the wizard of oz game) and its short hopefully your next game is better

"not bad but..."

There are a few parts where you can fall through blocks and a more intricate backround would be nice. At least you put in SMRPG Rawest Forest Remix. That is what made it awesome.
