Design: Since the design was really by whoever worked on the Super Mario Bros. 3 team (and the Super Mario All-Stars team), I can’t give a rating on the design. I will, however, tell you that this tileset looks horrible. Thomas failed to use a proper tileset pallete program (such as the readily availible TilesetPal), and thus everything looks grainy and unplesant. Everything is a pain to look at. Beyond that, while Thomas had a lot of room for pretty much all of the tiles used in Super Mario Bros. 3, he only included the first world (and even forgot a lot of things, including the huge steel blocks and the checkerboard ground). 2/10.
Layout: Not so good. There’s open spaces everywhere where you could stick stuff in. If you gave me 15 minutes, I could probably make this tileset 33% shorter. Sadly, this is one of the better aspects of this tileset. 3/10.
Eyecandy: The eyecandy, although designed in SMB3, looks terrible here. The fourth frame of the lava is the same as the first, and the flag, for some reason, isn’t 2x size like the rest of the tileset. 2/10.
Masking: The bane of every tileset creator and level maker. That’s right: Thomas used AUTOMASK. I’m not sure if I can even attempt to create a working level here. 0/10.
Other Remarks: Ninte*n*do is not a trademark, it’s a regestered trademark. There’s a difference, namely the ® and the ™.
Overall rating: 1.75/10. Sorry, dude. Next time try not to make your conversions as grainy, and don’t use automask, those two really hit you hard.
Download recommendation: No.
