Design (4.5/10)
Actually not bad for a Mother Brain fight. It's pretty hard to take one of these and make it into something fun. However, this battle is VERY repetitive. First, four Rinkas appear which you have to dodge for a few seconds. The Fire Flower is useful because you can use it to kill them. Then, sets of spikes appear and you have to jump between them. Now you should probably make the spaces between these spikes wider because it's way too hard to jump through them without getting hurt unless you're small Mario. Then two Snifits appear, which you use to hit Mother Brain with. These Snifits kind of break the boss, since Mario can jump high enough to hit Mother Brain repeatedly with them. Then two lava waves come and sweep across the stage. After that it all starts again. Like I said, the whole thing was very repetitive and you probably needed more attacks to diversify it a little.
Atmosphere (6/10)
I guess you're new to SMBX, but considering how short this level is (it's literally 3 screens) you made use of what you had. I especially liked those generators you made the Snifits come out of. Very creative.
Other Comments: dat star tho
Overall 5.25/10 (Average)
Not a bad boss at all, just needs to be less repetitive.
Questions and answers for myself.
Q: What should I replace the snifits with?
A: Probably Veggies that are set to Blocktop=0 or whatever its called.
Q: What new attacks Should I add?
A: You can suggest new attacks for the boss fight.
Also you can just crouch in mid-air to dodge the spikes a lot easier.
Thanks for the review!
