Sorry but like... eh I dunno how to think of this one. Allow me to begin: graphics wise, it's not that bad at all actually, I can definitely see that there's "some" effort put into the quest. However, some levels have a horrendous palette and it looks truly bad.
As far as gameplay goes, the first few levels were... "decent" but the moment you get the hookshot it just goes downhill from there. Most of the quest is just glitched jumping, which honestly doesn't add any value to the quest at all. Half the time, I was paranoid thinking that the spikes would kill me when really they don't because of odd jumping glitches. Furthermore, those "hookshot" puzzles are honestly really bad. They are clever, but executed very poorly, since if you do them wrong, you'll most likely end up dead. Music wise, it's horribly unfitting. While yes, I do like the music, it just did not match the stage or area at all.
One last thing, in the later levels (around 6-2) those "puzzles" where you need to stun the Goombas to get across ledges is really, really infuriating and while it is somewhat clever, it has been poorly executed again. I also discovered a really wacky bug. If you get hit by an enemy and fall into a hole, you can actually skip a couple levels ahead. This can easily be fixed if you made the death holes half-solid or fully solid. And regarding the title, I wouldn't call it so "short" since it took around an hour to complete (which is how long it takes for me to beat Z1...).
In conclusion, this isn't such a great quest. While yes, it has promise and a bit of effort, everything else mostly just killed it for me. Sorry, but it's a 2/5 from me.

I open the game and:
http://prntscr.com/64l0vi
First bad thing of the game: Misspelled Mario. Maroi.
Unfitting overworld music.
When you hold up Maroi break dances.
Forest music in an underground level.
Just so you know exploiting glitches does not make this game any better. Also, it does not make a puzzle.
This game has horrible graphics and a bland background.
Yes, I played this game and I think I this game is not worth playing.
Sorry man but this game is a: 1/5
