Pretty fun game so far, I like how while it's obviously based on VIP, it's still trying to be its own thing, the level design being different than VIP. It has the same spirit though, like the weird janky stuff and whatnot. Chad's Forest in particular is an example of a level that is technically bad, but it's still fun to play in the context of the game. Tightly designed levels are great, but it's nice to just have some dumb fun once in a while, and this (and a few other levels) bring that experience, it's a good change of pace, especially because the more intricate levels are way harder to beat.

I wish there were more save points, having to beat the first castle takes a while due to the game already starting out harder. I actually decided to just use a save state on the overworld because I wanted to take a break, which I wouldn't usually do in a hack like this, since I prefer to not do it. But well, still what matters is that it's fun, and it's not like I'm savescumming anyway.

My favorite levels so far were that one pink and gray level and the first castle, they have really nice gimmicks and a nice design, the castle especially has such a unique gimmick.

I'm actually surprised I got a few references, considering I've never been to 4chan in my entire life, and I'm just not really well acquainted with memes in general. But I definitely got the triforce thing (which is also when I got the "newfriends" thing, which is kinda funny coming from this hack, but well, I guess it had to be toned down, but it does feel pretty weird, I thought this hack would be edgy, but I suppose things probably get a little bit edgy later on).

Um... don't have much else to say, but it's pretty cool so far. I hope this becomes an ongoing series, I mean, VIP is dead anyway, so having some spiritual successors is cool (there's YUMP and JUMP, but that's about it, I think). By the way, this isn't a full review obviously, just some first impressions.

Edit: nevermind, you can just save on the overworld anytime by pressing start, I'm a big dafty as usual.
