I wish the camera was better. At least I chuckled at the game over screen.

camera was over zoomed in. I would really suggest making your own art assets.
Potentially a great game. Unfortunately the postjam version still seems to have a few bugs that require restarting the cart. e.g. Mario unable to jump after stomping an enemy (this randomly happens), Enemy glitching at spawning within a pipe, and the kill counter not being updated correctly. Nice try, though.
Nice game! I didn't have any problems with it and the gameplay was fun. Good job!
which kill counter? do you mean the "wanted" level? it's not a 1-1 mapping (1 kill is 1 star, 3 kills is 2 stars etc)
I have seen the two other bugs though - might have a look but I thought it was already long overdue to release a "proper" version!
thanks for comments!
The gameplay is fun ! There is something dangerous when you try to copy something, it's missing small details that make it "fake". I'm sure the purists will find something but I wasn't bugged by anything so good job on the graphics and UI. It was a risk and you delivered.
Please hack mario world to add this feature ? :D
Well done !
Nice and funny mario version! Like other said, the camera is over zoomed and it's difficult to see all the play screen.. however good work!
I'd advise trying to make you own graphics / at least give the copied graphics your own spin, as mentioned in the [Ludum Dare rules](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/rules). The gameplay is fun enough, couldn't find a way to restart it without restarting the cart though. Good entry, but do try your hand at more original graphics next time :slight_smile:
Pretty good game but I think the camera is too close to the player so we can't see the enemies come :/
A really odd idea that actually turn quite well! :)
The Mario engine was wonderful recreated in the game (in Pico-8, congrats!), and the fact that you can use a machinegun inside this cartoony world is very unique!
My only complaint with the game is that the camera makes it very hard to avoid enemies. I know you can't zoom out (Pico-8!) but you should at least make the camera not centered on mario, but putting him in the left or right side of the screen depending on the direction the player is facing. That way, we could better see the "hazards lying ahead".
Also, the ammo is way to limited :p
Congrats for your entry!
This is quite possibly the best game I have played in this Jam so far!
I don't know why everyone is complaining about the graphics being unoriginal, i've certainly never seen any sprites like these before. Excellent gore and screenshake, would massacre hundreds of innocent little waddling guys again
