After a long while since my last port, I decided it was time to get in action again and it wasn't until I saw this game that I thought:
"This has to be on DC" And so I got to it....
What we have here is a typical super mario bros parody where you control some sort of cat, fight some internet meme like enemies, until then all is familiar and we all know how it ends, except for one particular thing: THIS GAME HATES YOU, literally.
There's all sorts of traps everywhere specially if you play remembering how the original game was, this game is known as one of the most difficult out there, and massive laugh and desperation is guaranteed.
It has nine levels and 8 bit like music, I hope you enjoy

I remember seeing footage of this once. A bit zany, even by Dreamcast standards! I'm sure it'll feel right at home on the console though. Thanks for the port, I'll have to try it sometime!

Lol, these are usually the type of games that frustrate the hell out of me ! But hey, I'm up for a spot of old school platforming. It certainly looks good, and right at home on the DC. Thanks very much for making the effort to port it over, I'll give it a try once I find someone willing to download it for me

You can't download it by yourself? LOL

The site has a language panel if that's the issue...

The graphics are like that on purpose, I didn't make the game i ported it to Dreamcast. It is a parody of the original super mario bros, and it does one hell of a job on that XD
It's hard and funny...

Lol, ok that did sound a bit dumb. What I meant was: my old PC isn't working, so I'd have to rely on burning game on my Mac

And that is something that, no matter how hard I've tried in the past, I've never been able to achieve successfully ! Unfortunately, I think it needs certain burning software, which I don't have.

hahah I thought it was because of the site...
Well you can either use alcohol 120% or discjuggler or imgburn I think...
I'm sure there might be others as well.
You could make a sdiso if you had a sd adapter too.

Mmm......Neoblast, not sure those program's are available for Macs, though I could be wrong. From what I remember, to be successful, you have to use a program called 'Toast'. I might try and get hold of it and try again. I know that there is a detailed explanation of how to burn DC discs on a Mac somewhere on Dreamcast-talk.
I was just looking at the SD adapters on EBay. Saw one for only £10, which seems to be good buy.

Huh? I know all this... I didn't mean it to sound otherwise.
