It's alright but I wish the turning circle was a little smaller, and make turning around at least a little faster. That Fugu boss sucked ass though.
I wish there were more levels that were half water/half land rather than the 5 or 6 fully underwater levels.

It's underwater controls are some of the best I've seen 3D games do. Animations are simple, fluid and Mario goes at a good speed if you know how. What 3D games do it better?

So very true. I've noticed that any underwater level in mario maker gets siginificantly less plays than land levels. If you want people to play your water level, you have to make them think its a land level (sub level is water)

Of course it's not as amazing nowadays.

thanks for taking that straight, it was my intention.
And I share your sentiment there. No game has ever been able to recreate that feeling for me that the water stages in Super Mario 64 did.
The most iconic part to me is when you don the Metal cap and sink deep into the water, and then when it wears off, swimming along the bottom while the music plays. But one of my favorite other parts regarding underwater segments is the hidden window in the castle that takes you to the underwater room where you can see 4 different times of day on each side of the room outside. That was fucking incredible

64 and Galaxy did it right. Sunshine's swimming was garbage and the 1-Up Studio games' swim mechanics is just a clunkier version of 2D Mario's swim mechanics since 3.

As far as 2D Mario games go, they're not bad but games where a power-up or item makes the process less daunting would be preferred. Wario's swimming controls handle better, though

For the most part I liked them, but I don't feel like all the water levels were equally good. Current Capers and Deep Keep were both pretty boring, and Shoal Atoll might be the worst stage in the game. Meanwhile, Amiss Abyss and Irate Eight are among the best in the game.
