It does have a couple rough patches, but they are far and few between and it's really not any worse than anything in Sunshine. I mean that in a good way. This could totally give any 3D Mario a run for its, uh, coins I guess.

Obvious level spoilers in the video, but I found an out of bounds glitch

Turns out it's a lot harder to pull off than it looks. I can't replicate it again, but I only tried a handful of times. The game does have some minor graphical glitches, and hiccups, but the design itself is really good, I think. More good news, this game is looking to be much longer than I originally thought. I was expecting a 5-10 hour game, but I'm about 12 hours in, and I'm only just now getting close to 50% on the file select screen, and I'm pretty adept at these types of games (not trying to brag, but it's true).
Maybe I should have been a beta tester.

Guys. This game has a level editor coming soon.
I cannot wait to try that out. I've already beat all that is in the main game.

It's nice to see this game is finally out. I've been waiting for this game for years now. But like TS, I'll wait until a possible Switch version comes out.

Ok. I've beat the game and gotten all time pieces. In hindsight I think this game is kinda short, but I don't mind it. This was so much fun! I forgot just how much I liked 3D platformers.
This game is very creative and kept being fresh the whole way through. I like all the ideas, the world and the soundtrack. It also has this sillyness to it, which is charming. The pacing of the game is really well done too. This is very much worth playing and I highly recommend it to those who love these kinds of games.

I just noticed this, but Hat Kid has the same hair style as BotW Link.
I also agree with most of your points.
Just started a second playthrough, and wow, it's amazing how much faster I'm getting through it. I'm going to try to sit down sometime this weekend, and write a more thorough review, cause this game is really special, and well made. Not flawless, but pretty damn nice all around. I've never wanted a sequel so badly with a newly released game. I usually get bored, or wear it out, but not here. I'm excited to see what kind of levels people will make, even though, if Mario Maker has taught us anything, 90% of them will be horrible .

One criticism I forgot to mention is the game is actually a bit short, if you compare it to 3D Mario games. It could have used 1 or 2 more worlds in my opinion, but yeah, the game is so well made, I won't hold this against it.

Yeah, especially after beating it once. I was able to 100% it a second time in just under 5 hours. FWIW, It takes me about.. maybe 12 hours to 100% Mario 64? That's about 10 stars an hour, maybe faster for some, but some like the 100 coins can take a while. But with games like these, I'd rather it be short, and amazing, than be long, and have some filler levels. I really think every level here is unique, and does something different. Sure there are overlapping themes, but the levels themselves are just so well done.
They are also apparently releasing two more worlds at some point in the near future, but no official date has been given. Has anyone else played around with any of the workshop stuff? I downloaded virtually every level I could, and most of them are actually pretty fun.Even the ones that are supposed to be like kaizo levels are fair to a degree.

More importantly (for me), Switch version confirmed! I had actually gotten this recently as a gift but my laptop is so trash it chugged when I tried to play it at lowest settings, so this is a godsend. Probably grabbing the DLC on PC anyway since it'll be free, and I'm upgrading this laptop at some point anyway (and by "upgrading" I mean "buying a new one" honestly), so I'd get that and also mod support.
The DLC apparently is only on PC at first though. Wonder if the console release of the DLC will coincide with the Switch release later on, but we'll see of course.

This sounds awesome. And a Switch port? This is almost too good to be true. I hope this game can get the exposure it deserves.

Got the DLC. I also have some opinions about the DLC.
I haven't tried very many of the new contracts yet, but they do seem to be challenge levels, as advertised.
Tbh, this feels more like a really well made fan level, than an official product. It's not bad, it works, and the core gameplay is still there, but I did not care for these first two missions.
