That screen shot at the end explains why the music sounds like a cat drowning. The comparison to SMB is totally apt; I didn't really see it before. I was aware of this game and just new that it as pretty bad, but that was about it. After watching a video to refresh myself (as I don't own this), I couldn't help but thinking that the 1st level looked like a child's rendition of SMB's colorful graphics in MS Paint.

I had a hard time nailing down exactly what I didn't like about this game. I played it repeatedly, staying up late and engaging in veritable marathons trying to figure it out. I eventually put a stop to that for fear of my sanity. Yeah, this game is terrible, and I think presentation is part of why. The other part is that it's about as dull as any game can get.

In addition to the Mario-ness, the little seems to be dressed a lot like Link, at least on the cover.
