Its best moments can make for some actually intense, precise platforming, but overall it's just too inconsistent in its level design and its construction to be worthy of a serious recommendation.
At the end of the day, I think NSMBWii was a very flawed foundation to work off of, and while Newer tries its best to make something a bit more thoughtful out of its template, it just feels like Mario Maker-tier level design too often, unfortunately.
It's a technical marvel, but as a certain washed-up YouTuber says:
"So is the cotton gym, but I wouldn't take it with me on the car!"
EDIT 09:08/2021: holy hell if this game doesn't have too much content for its own good. i would have rather seen half the number of levels with double the polish
