Basically Super Mario 64, with the ability to correct your jumps midair and plenty of way to skip a star requirement. And a shotgun, obviously.

Simple in concept, great in execution. You can shoot basically anything that you would think it would get destroyed. See a wall that is bothering you? Shoot it! Don't want to grab Bowser by the tail and break the lifespan of your analogue stick? Shoot him. Baby Penguin being too loud? Don't try it. But you can commit first degree murder to the mother, if you feel like it. A lot of details went into the interaction both with characters and the objects themselves. Not to mention a couple of QOL improvements that makes this ROM hack a really enjoyable experience.

Camera is a bit iffy and often goes behind walls and such. I don't know if this hapenned because I killed Lakitu while he was giving me advice on how to control the camera at the beginning or is it really intentional. Probably my only nitpick.

Getting the 120 stars was a breeze, not even counting up to 3 hours.
