General Commentary and Game Overview
A genuinely good idea. There aren't many games in which Bowser is playable. Not many that are very good at least.
 
Pros replay value. Good music, power-ups, use of puzzles+ GREAT dialog from Bowser.
 
Cons Bowser did get stuck just once, but it fixed itself, so never mind that.
 
Impressions
Gameplay
8 / 10
Next to no glitches. Only one and it happened on an occasion that was one in a thousand, so I wouldn't worry about it.
 
Graphics
10 / 10
Great use of super paper mario sprites. Nice to see that just about all sprites were from one game, so there's no clashing.
 
Sound
7 / 10
What can I say, it matched the game well. Except when Bowser became small, or mega sized, his jump still kept the same pitch. Just a small detail, but it would be neat if the small bowser had a small sound and mega bowser had a huge sound.
 
Replay
9 / 10
definitely.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
Definitely a game worth playing. Stepping outside the fangame box to produce a Bowser themed game is worth a download in itself. Other than that, the gameplay fun and easy to get the hang of.

Thanks for the good review! Just out of curiosity, where did Bowser get stuck? Oh, and even though the jump sound effect is the same, if you breathe fire as Mini-Bowser, his voice is high-pitched and funny sounding. Don't know if you tried that. Breathing fire is pretty worthless as Mini-Bowser.

LOL I KNOW! If you repeatedly press SPACE to breathe fire as Mini-Bowser, it sounds like he's laughing! Also, AWESOME REVIEW!
