That’s what passion does to a guy.Īnd while I collected the main “resource” in the game, which is a moon instead of a star, so I can progress to further, more visually exciting levels, I reminisced how much I loved everything that Super Mario did for platformers. Although, after that, I kind of wanted to do something similar. Perhaps the most visually pleasing moment was when I ran over a beach wearing some cute boxer shorts and cannon-balled into the sea, leaving waves glistening on the sunlight behind. The levels are beautifully designed and the effects around them even more so. Mario can throw his hat on opponents to possess them – from a Goomba to a T-Rex, there’s a whole host of enemies. Even the main mechanic elicits one smile after another. The game starts perfectly simple and with every passing moment becomes better and better. And the attention to detail – the Goombas look around in confusion because they’ve lost sight of you. The music is brand new, yet so familiar that you can hum it along while whooping “yahoo!” with Mario while jumping over seven angry Goombas. The story is something we’ve already seen before, but you don’t mind as and you’re pacing around waiting for the cinematic to finish and for the game to start. Characters start popping up and they’re all appealing. The terrain is familiar, the controls are perfect, and the world is beautiful. It felt like riding a bicycle after a ten-year pause. Part one – what’s good? Well, it’s the freakin’ Super Mario, that’s what’s good! I was hit by a nostalgia train from the moment I started the game. That moment in which I decide that there is no other way than to split the text in three parts and without holding back say everything about the most recent Mario adventure. Dear readers, you have no idea what a difficult and even sacred mission that moment represented for me. Then you take the controller, start the game, and play, play, play some more… You defeat Bowser, save the princess, watch the end credits, then play some more and some more afterwards… Then you sit behind your keyboard and write a text about the game. That’s it the desire to play is overflowing all limits! And then Super Mario Odyssey was announced – the newest Mario game on Nintendo’s newest console whose library already boasts multiple hit games. His games had created genres, explored new gameplay ideas and even designed gaming hardware in historic moments. It might sound like a bad joke, but this cult character had redefined what interactive entertainment meant with his every iteration and is more than a synonym for quality in the gaming industry. It used to be enough to simply say „Super Mario“ to make every gamer’s thumbs twitch. Srpsku verziju ovog teksta možete pronaći na ovom linku.
