Super Mario 64: Really Good Edition by Blutorus

Blutorus decided that one Game of the Month award wasn't enough for the first half of 2016, so he rolled out another GOTM-worthy game after Annalynn won in March! Super Mario 64: Really Good Edition won the second Joke Game Contest of 2016, and while Really Good Edition is quite an offbeat game, it offers solid gameplay and an excellent engine. I'd love to see a similar engine resurface in a full-length game. The graphics aren't quite Wii U-quality, but I can guarantee you that they will make you smile, or your money back*. Really Good Edition makes very creative use of music and sound effects, which may or may not include traces of SiIvaGunner. Complete with riveting duels against the Pringles guy and a footrace of epic proportions against Sanic himself, Super Mario 64: Really Good Edition is a unique experience that you really have to play to experience. Don't forget to grab a Mountain Dew and a bag of Doritos while the game is downloading, though - this game could make you hungry.

* You shouldn't have paid anything to play this game, which makes it slightly easier for Blutorus and me to guarantee you a refund.

Congrats!
This is one of the few joke games I know that doesn't suck entirely ;)

while the actual game itself isn't that funny to me - it's just kind of a rat king of recent memes mashed together - i do think that a lot of work was put into the engine for it being a joke game and with luck it'll be instrumental in paving the way for joke games to be both funny and rich in a gameplay sense, which is definitely something that needs to start happening more often

I actually agree, to an extent. I was surprised to see the game's engine be so well thought out considering the graphics are this sort of Turd Feast-esque MS Paint monstrosity that's been popular for the last handful of years.

What happened to goofy clashing sprites? At least that had some charm to it, even if it isn't like... well made.

Well, thanks for the congratulatory words, everyone! I won't disagree with what Greeno said in that it wasn't all that funny. I did ultimately have more fun putting the memes in there instead of checking to see if it would be funny first (even though it most likely wasn't to some), but hey, if I wind up doing more with this I'll probably have the other locations have different types of humor or something. And thanks to those that voted in the original joke game contest!
