It's humourous and looks to be very fun, but it's buggy and it's impossible to aim the weapon at the enemies because I've got to run away from them too.

You need to either scale down on the difficulty or give the player more ways to knock out enemies.
In Mario Bros. enemies get knocked out by jumping against the platform they're standing on and then by running into them. Simple and easy. In this game, to kill the enemies you must first throw a box at them and then you must go to the box's designated door and boom they're dead assuming they didn't have time to recover. It's a problem. Oh BTW that's not all, there's yet another caveat to this mess, if you either miss your shots with the box or you hit the enemy, but it drops further down than it should because there was a hole or something, it damages it all the same as if the player was carrying it and took a hit from an enemy. Also if the timer runs out or the box breaks it costs you a life, so uh good luck guys.
I think the worst part of the game must be the snails, except when they're turned the opposite direction of the player it's fucking impossible to deal with them. They're functionally identical to the crabs, but the crabs atleast can't catch the player immediately after turning aggro cos they're always on a floor above the player.
Honestly I think the only saving grace to this confusion is that it's not an instadeath like in Mario Bros. All taking a hit does is like I said it damages the box and if the player isn't carrying any, it lowers the timer, but still it's brutal hard esp when the enemies start swarming the screen because you can't kill them quickly enough.
I still somehow survived 8 trips, so either I must be real damn good at Mario Bros. altho I never played it before or my quick learning came in handy for this game.
It's still a good game, it's just so cringe that it's so frustrating.
I agree that the challenge from this can get pretty hard pretty fast. Getting the difficulty right for this was already tough considering the time limit I had to make this in, and if I were to ever make a post-jam version, I'd definitely like to have the difficulty be something that the player eases into more before it ramps up as quickly as it does.
Glad you found it enjoyable otherwise!
Pretty great albeit a little bit too tough on the timer.
I can't get past level 1 because it's nearly impossible to control Kirby, I keep falling into pits or ramming into enemies until I die. I don't even know if there's a way to recover lost health.
The level design could have accommodated this handicap better too since it feels more like it was designed with the real NES Kirby in mind rather than car Kirby.
It's the full game and it's free, so it's cool TBH.
It's gotten blammed once so it's prolly going to get blammed again bro.
Anyways it's awful, here's why:
-Ugly graphics and animations, I hate this epileptic background.
-The most barebone and boring gameplay loop ever, it's a very basic platformer with bad collision detection and floaty jumps that adds 1 random small thing per level.
-Terminally unfunny, didn't laugh.
-Broken English. It looks like it was written by a 6 to 7 years old kid.
-Buggy
asshole, go judge other new games or get ran over by a car.
It takes forever to load, can't play the game sadly.
i ended up testing it in firefox so maybe that could be it?
if it still isnt loading i could put a windows build up on itch.io, which is a thing ill probably do soon
edit: i have decided to publish it with google drive, because i didn't want to make an upload page. anyway you can download it in the description now.
My expectations were set so low based on the thumbnail alone, but it turned out to be way better than what I thought. It's alright, nothing very exciting, but nothing awful either.
BTW server is dead LMAO.
Very cool remake. Very swag.
Brutally honest, if any of my reviews upset you, consider this https://youtu.be/YQbMtvQowX0
