An interesting release from Nintendo featuring Luigi's own entry in the "New" Super Mario Bros platforming games.

The game features the same assets that have been used throughout the New series but more specifically the Wii U launch title New Super Mario Bros U which is a good thing since they feature colorful and crisp characters and backgrounds.

Thankfully, this is not a copy-paste from the Mario games and features its own gameplay quirks such as having to beat the levels under 100 seconds and physics that are particular to Luigi (longer higher jumps). While the gameplay variety was a welcomed addition, I ended up wanting more of a traditional platforming experience since I've never been a huge fan of speedrunning Mario games and more so the ones that have challenging levels like this game.
