General Commentary and Game Overview
I don't understand at all. Why do there have to be so many games poorly made with Hello's SMB1 engine? Yes, I know, it's pure gold AT TIMES, but not all the time! Here, we get so many crappy Hello-induced games it's not even funny. See KoopaKingdom if you don't know what I mean.

Fortunately, this title still showed hope, giving us actual new levels instead of using that STUPID World 1-1 clon-Oh wait, I spoke too soon. Turns out World 1-1 has been moved to World 1-4....

I want to say the creator has done well putting in the new levels, but after trying to get through World 3-2, a glitch occurred after touching the flag, and you can't around it. Therefore, the game is not only a bad Hello engine edit, but it's unbeatable.
 
Pros -Attempt at new levels
 
Cons -They're uninspired
-The World 1-1 clone's STILL present
-Lockout glitch in World 3-2
-Using overused pieces of music
 
Impressions
Gameplay
3 / 10
 It's your average Hello engine edit. There isn't anything new other than the rather dull levels and the World 1-1 clone moved elsewhere. Why is it that this has to be an issue with every Hello edit we have here? People should really know better than to hastily slap a "game" together out of it.
 
Graphics
6 / 10
 The creator made a nice use of the existing graphics tileset, as well as other unique tilesets I haven't seen often inserted into Hello mockeries. Sure, there are some misplaced tiles that could have been replaced with what appeals more to the eye, but at least it isn't what we've ALREADY seen in the numerous edits out there.
 
Sound
3 / 10
 Once again, there's rarely anything new. Even if there is more music here, you may have heard the tracks from other fangames, downloadable or online. It's a shame how nobody bothers to go further with what they could have put in as the background music for certain levels. I've used non-Mario music before, and it's worked out well, so why couldn't others experiment with that as well?
 
Replay
1 / 10
 Knowing you can't actually beat it, what is the point of trying to? Not only that, but it's just another one of those very crappy engine edits that plagues the site.
 
Final Words
3 / 10
 Well, at least there are original levels, despite them being uninspired. But all the Hello-engined fun drains away when World 3-2 has a glitch that's impossible to bypass.
