Xandot Oaster @xandotoaster.bsky.social · 14/08/2026It's been a couple years since I've played it, but iirc bonking in SMS is one of the worst feelings in a video game. It takes roughly three hours for Mario to stand up again and for the player to regain control. 100

sadgebean.bsky.social @sadgebean.bsky.social · 15/08/2026iirc that was also the case in 64, no? I could be misremembering. I do think there are still good opportunities to do fun movement. Earlier in Ricco Harbor and Bianco Hills I was able to skip some small parts of the gameplay simply by experimenting. 000
