The shadow did the trick with it's twin shadow of it's former self. Honestly, I think the game stood out for the Super Mario Bros., plus, I enjoy a game where the shadow and the galaxy nighttime sky to go with it. I like how the game tries to be appealing to the market despite the shadows and Nintendo's look, I like to say goodbye to my old shadow and say hello to my new shadow. Purple really does suit me! And the black ink it really does ink it up in the shadow world. As weird as it is! Magic!

This has the potential to be a fun game, but the controls are extremely unresponsive- specifically the move left/right buttons. The jump control seems ok comparatively however. You can only take one damage before you die and have to start over from the beginning of the level as there are no checkpoints. So, the controls being sluggish cause frequent restarts. It is not really fun having to replay each level 10 or more times.

Have yet to open it. Does Nintendo know that you ripped off Super Mario Brothers? I'm sure you changed some parts of it besides how the characters look (although not by much). Even the shadow thing that I am reading about has ties to some later games in the series. I might try it a bit later to see what is different but I literally downloaded the game just so I could leave this comment. If you are going to rip something off then at least get the controls right (the main complaint in the reviews.
