General Commentary and Game Overview
This game is pretty cool, it's like a mix between a platformer, Super Mario 64, and Super Mario RPG! It's really cool! The cutscenes are sorta slow and so is Mario though, and some coins and stuff that you need to reach you can't reach, making it a little impossible, but hey! It's a demo! Get used to it, right? The author of the game did a very good job programming a 3D enviroment with a 2D program.

Impressions
Gameplay
7 / 10
A lot like Super Mario RPG with a few moves from 64. You can even ride on Yoshi, but I don't know what use that is but it's still fun. The koopa that is faster than you and keeps draining your health in one level is annoying, but it still works okay.
 
Graphics
8 / 10
The graphics are basically flat, but there are plenty of Super Mario RPG sprites to go around-- That's for sure! And the lightning thing is sorta... Blah.
But altogether, it's cool how the author made a 3D enviroment like a 2D Mario game. I give it a better score because of that.
 
Sound
4 / 10
Okay, so the music is varied, meaning it plays different all the time, and it stops at moments. Then it starts over, and plays again, and again, and again. Weird music.
 
Replay
8 / 10
Well, since you can't save, EVERY TIME IS A REPLAY. So the replay value might as well be the final score.
 
Final Words
8 / 10
The game did a pretty good job, being made with a 2D game maker, and it was cool to see the old Super Mario Bros world in 3D.

Yeah, just a little opinion, but I made the review anyway.

Thank you the_game_prince.

when you use yoshi you get to slowly heal life a little bit. and reach higher platforms easily when you unmount while jumping. to do a double jump

Oh yeah, that's sorta like Super Mario World in 3D! Makes the game even better!

You should make a sequel or something... Or at least an engine of a sort.

But it's not 3D, it is isometric perspective.

well you're right, but the movement and collisions are 3D though the graphics aren't.

You move as if it is 3D, like in Paper Mario or Super Mario RPG to name a few.

I didn't nessicarily mean the graphics, more like the programming to make it like the graphics. Plus the Super Mario RPG sprites look almost 3D.
