It may not exactly have Gameboy soul, but definitely scary. When you reach the star the second mario gets to you, you get stuck after respawn. For some reason that kept happening to me, so I eventually quit.
Mario appearing definitely works as a jumpscare :D
I really liked it! After playing for some time, I just gave up with kirby... The creepy-spooky vibes are on point! Well done!
Mario scared me! D: Is there a way to beat him? I get stuck after outrunning him in the blocks section
after outrunning him you pick up the star and beat him then continue moving forward to the door to progress the game
Thanks! I'll try again!
I managed to pick up the star after many tries! The 1st level being laggy was moslty what made it difficult, but after that it was really fun! Good work
That was fun! The inverted 2.5D aesthetic is a cool surreal take on the exe genre; the atmosphere is barren, foreboding, and melancholy. The art for the Platformer Hero is a little goofy, but the rest of the art, especially the character art, is proficient, striking, and charming. The ending is great!
I got stuck on the platformer chase for a bit. I kept assuming I had to carefully jump onto each platform to make it the entire way. I didn't realize until a few tries that my whole jump could clear everything! It was much easier then.
The audio balance is a bit off. The music seems quiet compared to the rest of the audio. Some of the sound effects, like the coin sounds and the jumpscares, are a smidgen loud. That one "bump" sound at the end, when it displays the high score, peaked the audio to +2.0 dB!
All-in-all, great work!
I love the visual its pretty surreal or more uncanny(?) anyways ITS GOOD I LOVE THE RENDERING ON THE 3D
