I... don't remember it being that short haha. I think I had seen someone else describe this game as a fever dream and that's very apt. The soundtrack is absolutely bumpin' and the levels are visually different from other Mario games but in a cool way. The mechanics are a bit janky, but it does play very similar to how I remember.
Save states and rewinds were almost a must for this. I took a better approach to using those features this time around than when I played DKC. Instead of just rewinding at the slightest inconvenience, I created a save state at the beginning of each level and when very low on lives, allowed myself a little grace to use rewind on silly deaths or if I reached game over. In hindsight, it did make me realize I disliked my time with DKC more than I thought though given the amount of cheap deaths I had in that game
I'm not sure what I'll play next. Maybe jump back and finish Elden Ring? I'm like 80 hours in and have to be getting close. Would be nice to finish and then jump into the DLC at some point. Horizon Forbidden West is on my "to purchase" list but I don't know if I want to start a giant open world yet
