THE PRINCESS IS WHERE?!!??!?!!!
This is a fun little recreation! I like the clicky sound design. And the ending screen is very cute!
this is more than just a game. Some kind of special experience. Enjoyed the animation in the end.
the star and flagpole sounds were hilarious🤣🤣🤣, also the part where you pressed x at the end was a really cool extra/secret
really exciting work. love the sounds (the "entering a pipe" noise made me grin), love the aesthetic, it's like modernist ascii art. this feels like a rich vein, you should definitely explore this vibe more. would love to see a game that uses type-writer-based designs to bolster a mechanic or narrative
"The real princess was inside you the whole time" PAUSE
This was super cute. I would love to see more stuff with this aesthetic. I think it could have been a fun challenge and detail to remake the music with the sounds of a typewriter, like you did for the super star music, but that would be icing on the cake for me.
Great work!
the sound design is extremely good.
appreciated, auntie pixelante <3
Just f u n
Aaaaaa the star music clicks are amazing. Beautiful tribute.
very cryptic- is there something i'm missing? like the recreation though
Fun.
Thanks for sharing. Did you consider making the bushes the same sprites as the clouds to mimic the original?
Thanks -- and yes, that would've been fun! I'll be honest, I think we did discuss it at one point but don't remember why we didn't end up going that way. I'll have to ask the artist sometime, you got me wondering haha.
Nice tribute. I would have made the goomba more flat on top so it doesn't look like a spike that's gonna hurt us. When we are standing next to a pipe, we shouldn't bump our head when we jump. Otherwise it looks nice and the sound fx are really cool.
When I press down, the page scrolls down as well...
