General Commentary and Game Overview
This is one of the best video games I've ever played. Thanks Thunder Dragon =]
 
Pros +It's Freakin' Fun
+Controls really well (It doesn't demand things out of the ease of use of the game's engine)
+Fantastic level design
 
Cons -Some Annoying level design things here or there
-Occasional hiccups that might kill you here or there
 
Impressions
Gameplay
10 / 10
As I've said, this is one of the best platformers that I've ever played. Most modern games don't match how involved this game can get with the relatively simple engine it has going on. It plays on Toad's movement perfectly, and is never too frustrating to get through certain parts. I had more fun and more shocks in this game than in the majority of games I've played. The sheer genius in some of the things you'll witness in this game made me angry (lol). Pretty amazing gameplay =].
 
Graphics
10 / 10
Wow?!
Holy Goodness?!
If you play, and been around the Mario fangaming community long enough, you'll see so much stuff customly made for this game that you're crazy if you don't want to give TD props for the graphics.
 
Sound
10 / 10
Sound in a platformer game like this isn't really important as long as it's not destroying the atmosphere, and luckily the music fits and builds upon the atmosphere of this game perfectly.

Who didn't love the music at the end of a boss battle =]?!
 
Replay
10 / 10
I don't think I've played many other fangames as long as I've played this one. It's always fun to go back and look at some of the genius crafted into the levels TD's built.
 
Final Words
10 / 10
TSB is Too Good.

I agree with most of your review, but I would give the replay (I've seen better, ever play SMW: goomba trouble?) and the graphics (you played Stardust? 100% PURE custom graphics, serious, no joke no rips)
nines.

P.S. when are you gonna finish marioPN if at all?

I played them, but it doesn't mean that I doesn't mean that I think think the job that TD did isn't 10/10 quality...

I don't know exactly about Finishing PN, I still work on it when there isn't too much going on, but it's been hard for me to find the time to do it right now. I might release more 4 level demo add-ons as a progression towards it being some sort of game complete game sometime in the near future. <3.
