Wow, this is brilliant. A glitchified, multigenerational, mario-troidvania that expands the Mario mythology into dark fantasy territory. Fun sense of discovery, too.
I'm adding this game to the resources page for Glitch Jam.
Love this game. It's like an alternate version of what the Mario series could have turned into. Awesome sense of mystery.
So, what exactly is a "Ur platformer?"
i love this game! I actually found it kinda creepy! XD
Cool :)
Well that was interesting... quite fun even though the movement can be a bit buggy at times.

Controls:
This game has controller support, so plug in your controller I guess? You can also apparently use the arrow keys and space to play.
When you first play SPB 2.0.1 you will be given a choice of language, and you will be able to enter your name/token to have your pathetic scores featured below ours, on our illustrous leaderboard. Once you have chosen your region and creds, you will have to edit a file to change them. You're an adult; you can find this file yourself ( see: http://love2d.org/wiki/love.filesystem )
Background:
In April 2014, me and some friends found a weird old famicom cartridge buried, along with some cold-war propaganda, in an abandoned mineshaft in northern BC.
After drying it out, we plugged it into an old famicom and were shocked: it seemed to be some kind of "Ur platformer" that predates even Braid. We tried to contact the developers, but we've had no luck. All we could find online was countless remakes. Needless to say, this was our call to action.
Over the course of the next few days, we did our best to port the game to LOVE2D, and localize it for an English speaking audience.
If you are/know the identities of the original devs, we'd really like to shake their hands/tentacles. Let us know!
