UNOFFICIAL REVIEW of STORMING AIRSHIPS by HVMETAL
Gameplay (60%): 8.5/10
Super fun airship level! The autoscrolling was fast enough to keep you on your toes, but not TOO fast. However, there was one thing that bothered me...the Rocky Wrenches are completely invincible, as far as I can tell. That might not seem like much, but a few stray wrenches flying around in a level that's already full of projectiles is asking a lot from the player. Also, the boss fight was pretty disappointing. Two Hammer Bros? Really?
Graphics/Atmosphere (30%): 9/10
I LOVE the tileset you used! That, along with the elaborate block designs make this whole level feel like something straight out of Super Mario Bros. 3. Kudos to you for pulling that off!
Music/Atmosphere (10%): 8/10
Not the best song choice, but there's one thing I noticed that I bet most others won't, because they enter the ending pipe as soon as it enters their field of view...as soon as the music stops, the airship stops moving. That's just so cool! It also must have taken a LOT of testing to get that to work, so good for you on that one!

I loved this level! It took me straight back to my days of playing Super Mario Bros. 3 on my Gameboy Advance SP :^)
