Are you a bad enough dude to get to work? This game is "fun" in the same way that Dwarf Fortress is. Fans of Kaizo Mario will be very pleased. I haven't felt this pandered to in 15 years. The first special mechanic the game teaches you is how to throw a bouncing suitcase and jump off it to extend your range. I was instantly hooked, as it reminds me of attempting to climb a wall of fish in an old romhack called Mario Adventure.

I really wanted to like this game, but the controls make an already clunky game irritating to play. Binding throw/pickup/special/run to the same button was not a good design choice. Jumping off a brief case that falls down and bounces with your bounce off of it being real weak is annoying. Being unable to drop down from platforms was also annoying. I still hope some people give the game a chance if they want an indie super mario like, but as of this review it's only for people who are really patient.
