I don't think a game's camera placement has infuriated me as much as this game. This is a 3D platformer. A fixed isometric camera does not work. I can't count the number of times I have died because its impossible to know where Mario is landing. How did anyone think this is a good idea? The fixed camera is so uncomfortable. It genuinely ruins the levels for me, which are actually really well designed. I don't have the patience to unlock the secret worlds in this game specifically cause the camera makes me want to pull my hair. Also the Cat Suit is not fun to use in my opinion, I much prefer the Tanooki or Fire Flower power up. This game is heavily carried by its level design, I was unsure whether to give it a 2.5 or 3 because of the stupid camera placement, but the levels (and music) saved this game.
