Brutal, but phenomenal at the same time
I can’t believe how underrated this game is. This is definitely one of the best platformers available on iOS. It’s one of a kind and clearly a lot of love and passion we’re put into this. It’s very challenging (which isn’t really a bad thing), it has gorgeous visuals, and I love how smooth and responsive the controls were. Each level provided something unique and it’s really addicting and even if I got frustrated a lot, I couldn’t put the game down. It just kept calling me back. I hope more levels get added in the future. Thank you to the devs for creating a great premium iOS game!
UPDATE: I have to remove a star because the game is no longer optimized for the latest iOS devices. Once it’s updated, I’ll make if 5 stars again.

Hi, we appreciate the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it.
If Burgertime Got Its Super Mario Knack - Interesting, But Rather Punishing
If Burgertime got its Super knack and became "Super" Burgertime, this would basically be its outcome. Unfortunately, while I find the concept of tough-as-nails platforming, as the game would suggest, potentially fun and certainly interesting, I find the game really too punishing, at least for my playstyle of not having cheap shots taken at - and I found a lot in this game, which is a shame for a gamer like me who was longing for a more difficult Mario game.
I would certainly play the game all the way to 100% completion if it weren't for the punishing gameplay. Usually, I would strive for 100% completion in a video game, and usually, the times I wouldn't would be if the game were punishing along the way to completion, or even to 100%, and that shamefully is a strong point on a lot of my Nintendo games. The fact that this is even a part on this game is truly shameful for exactly what it is.
Some of the jumps, for one thing, are just plain punishing to cross. I can count several times where I thought I was gonna make it only to fall just short of the next platform, and the collision and placement of enemies is also pretty rough in themselves. There are too many enemies packed into one space often, making even slight movements potentially deadly, and the collision has caused me grief on more than one occasion when trying to dodge or stomp an enemy.
To sum it up, if you're looking for a tough-as-nails game like Mario, you may find better alternatives online. But if you have a high pain and punishment tolerance, this game MAY work, and in fact I can totally understand if you enjoy it yourself. I'm just saying I wouldn't really recommend this game if you're a general Mario fan, but if you don't mind the gameplay, or are a general mobile game fan or tough-as-nails gamer or platformer gamer yourself, this should be up your alley. Though the rest of it IS good, I'll admit myself.

App won’t respond in settings when shut off music
The app is unresponsive when one attempts to shut the music off and if the music was not so annoyingly repetitive with one short bar of music over and over and over again, it would be more tolerable. But because of the inability to silence the game in it’s settings, it just made me wonder what other basic problems are there throughout this game?

Hello, we are sorry you’re having issues with the audio. Can you please email us with the exact problem you are encountering? We have never heard of anyone having issues turning off the sfx or music, and the game even allows you play your own music as well. Thanks.

Frustrating but rewarding gameplay
This game can be maddeningly frustrating. But when you complete a stage it feels incredibly rewarding because it’s so challenging. It feels like the old school Mario. That said, I wish they had an “easy” mode. At times I just want to give up and delete the app forever.
