#retrush

Retrush is a race against the clock! You have just a few precious seconds to get from checkpoint to checkpoint… but, you have infinite lives - so get moving, and go blaze a fearless trail!

From grasslands and deserts to aquariums and power plants, each level has its own unique flavor and elements. Between familiar SMB/Portal mechanics and new custom elements like Star Shards, there's no telling what's in the next level!

Frequent checkpoints and stars help to ease in novice players, while experts can skip the training wheels and go for the perfect run. Every level can be conquered with pure platforming, or you can use the portal gun to skip sections or find shortcuts. Anything goes!

The graphics are simply recolors of tiles from the original SMB and Lost Levels, but rearranged to create unique structures and landscapes. Further, custom animated tiles and backgrounds truly bring the levels to life. It's a simple aesthetic designed to look better than ever!

Every level also has an extra challenge stage with Red Coins instead of time gates! New obstacles are added for increased difficulty, and the color palettes are changed to make the levels feel fresh. Altogether, that's 16 more levels, for a grand total of 32!

After clearing all 16 main levels, a level select allows you to replay any stages you want - or tackle their remixes. It even saves which remixes you've cleared!* What happens if you clear them all…?

* Mari0 does not have autosave! Be sure to pause and save from the menu periodically.

…and yes, this really took me nearly NINE YEARS to finish! That's like a third of my life! But today just so happens to be my birthday, and what better way to celebrate than to wrap this up and start a new chapter? 🎉🎉🎉
