Full review on my website: https://www.nepikigaming.com/reviews/super-mario-world/
''I might have sounded a bit critical throughout the review and believe me, that is only because I’ve played Super Mario Bros. 3 in advance. This game is still one of, if not my favourite Super Mario game ever due to how much it means to me. The controls especially are spot-on, and that’s one of the most important parts of a game for me. Mario controls very smoothly, and added mechanics such as the spin jump have only improved how fun it is to control him. The controls are further complimented by the excellent level design whenever you’re not using the broken Cape Feather to fly over the entire stage. I might have liked the variety in level design and the overworld events from its prequel more, but I still enjoy going through this overworld because of how many alternate exits there are in the interconnected world. Oh, and this game has Yoshi. Everyone loves Yoshi. Super Mario World is, and will always be one of the first recommendations I give whenever people ask me for a good retro 2D platformer, and that opinion has not changed at all 10 years after I’ve last played it.''
