Oh no! BP has set up shop in Mario Land, and now another oil leak has started to kill all the fish in the sea! It's a good thing Mario is a plumber, because if there's one thing he knows how to do, it's fix leaky pipes!
Grab the fish as they die upon contacting the oil and use their bloated fishy corpses to plug the leaks in the pipe before the oil overcomes you. But watch out! BP really doesn't like outsiders interfering with their ecological disasters, so they'll be dropping mines and scuba jerks into the water to make your life more difficult. Fortunately, you can use the dead fish as a weapon against them too.
It's high time somebody puts an end to BP and their reckless actions... go get 'em, Mario! See if you can last long enough to witness the glorious destruction of BP!
CONTROLS:
A = Swim
S = Throw Fish
Arrow Keys = Direction
P = Pause
Good luck to all of you on collecting the medals and making the high scores list! Thanks for playing and thanks to Tom and Newgrounds for all the support!
IF YOU MAKE IT TO WORLD 3-4 YOU'LL SEE A SPECIAL CINEMATIC! :)

Fun.
You should explain in the in-game instructions somewhere that you can use the dead fish to kill other enemies...
I had to read the medal descriptions to find out, haha
(It helps a lot knowing that you can use something as a weapon)
The only problem I have is that it seems to lag to the point where I don't want to play anymore after I "beat the game" and it tells me to see how long I can last.
Great game tho otherwise!
Mario nostalgia
Mockery of Event IRL

Well
A very decent game, although it would be better if you didn't mention any specific company. I live in the area where the oil spill hit, it wasn't totally BPs fault. The disaster would have been a lot worse if the civilians didn't try to help by pumping seawater into the fire, which corroded the pipes causing the catastrophic failure.

Good yet hard
this actually a good collaborative game, retro physics while making a mockery of a current real world problem is pretty funny. Taking cheep-cheeps and clogging te pipes with them is pretty original it seems as well as those annoying scuba divers who try to destroy the fish making it hard to stop the spills.
I found as you get higher up in the levels that the gameplay gets harder and harder and I seem to get less time as I get better in the levels. Overall this seems to be a rather fun and challenging game, good job.
Thanks for the nice review! And yeah, the game definitely gets harder as you progress. If you can last through World 3-4, you'll get to see a nice cinematic of BP's destruction at the hands of Mario. Good luck!

Really Good Parody Game
Kudos to you fine sir. You made a game that captures the gameplay elements of Super Mario Bros. with a (somewhat) timely global event. Removing the social commentary from the picture, the gameplay is smooth, the controls are fluid, and the challenge increases as one advances in the game. The small sprites make the game a bit frustrating, especially given the size of the game window. The sound effects are perfectly re-appropriated. Going back to the social commentary elements, the oil filling the screen to represent the timer is brilliant, and the enemy BP divers and subs drives home the point you are trying to make with the game. Only one question: if Mario has such amazing powers that he can survive swimming underwater and through oil without being scathed, why does he need dead fish to plug a pipe? Oh, wait, he's a plumber, he knows what he is doing. Never mind.
