General Commentary and Game Overview
I am IMPRESSED with this editor. Being someone that extensively, extensively played through SMB using SMB utility, you get a hardwired feel for how mario is supposed to play. I'm proud to say this engine operates damn near identical to the original SMB in terms of physics and enemy behavior. It's so fluid. This editor is very comfortable and intuitive. Very few people would know if they were playing a ROM or SMB NES GB because it's that high of quality.
 
Pros - Physics are spot on, Feels like a real mario game. I think the entrance of items and flying distance of the koopas is perfect, for example.
- Everything from the original is there
 
Cons - The Properties tab tends to disappear, but clicking on a new level area brings it back up. I might be missing something obvious, though

- As someone else stated, it would be nice to see SMB LL enemies, items, and luigi present, but this speaks nothing about the quality of SMB NES GB

- Hammer Bros behavior might be slightly off, but they still are formidable and this isn't an issue.

Thanks for the review. Making this game required me to pay very close attention to the original game. That being said, knowing all the differences between my game and the original makes me feel like my version is completely off from the NES! You're totally right on Hammer Bro behavior as well as a hundred other things I could point out in detail. In any case, I worked very hard on it and am glad you could appreciate the detail I invested. Please download the newer version at gamejolt.com (this site doesn't let me easily update).
