"o.O"

submission: Super Mario 63

Are...are you sure this is just a Flash game? I mean...damn. Not just the sheer size of the game, but the fact that it's actually a pretty faithful capsule of the 3D Mario games, and manages to look resplendent in the process.

The only complaint I'd be able to lodge is that it slows down way too much if you zoom out at all, but compared to just how much else you packed in here (even an editor, WTF) it's a minor issue. Well done.

Score: 6

"Mostly easy, too much piece screwage later"

It was pretty much cake for a good portion of the game, then the later ones seemed to feed you nothing BUT the color/shape that would damage you. I wound up using my clear to eliminate more than half a screen's worth of bad shapes, then got the exact same pile of them (20 or so) with only a tiny handful of pieces that WEREN'T immediately thereafter.

So basically the game was extremely easy for about 13 levels, then a meat grinder with downright spiteful AI after. Neither of which are particularly fun. To be honest, I'm not sure how to get a better balance out of it, but that's the main problem.

Score: 2

"Apparently this is the butter-skates ninja."

You'd think a master of martial arts and assassination would be wearing shoes with some degree of traction. The controls felt even more slippery than Bubsy.
