As of July 31, mouse and mobile play are fully integrated into the game. During normal gameplay, press any key on the keyboard to withdraw. Press any key again to come out of your Koopa shell. While withdrawn in your shell, you are impervious to the Mario Brothers’ fireballs, but you also can't eat health-restoring Turtley Leaves. Use the right / D and left / A keys to choose your mode at the start, then press Spacebar to confirm. You can jump to story mode's different levels with the 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 keys at the mode select screen. It's recommended you don't do this if you haven't seen the events prior to that story level yet. Press the green flag to go back to mode select. The mechanics are explained in the Story Mode.
Inspiration and design philosophy provided on KoopaTV: https://www.koopatv.org/2023/07/play-fire-withdraw-videogame-koopatv.html The credits are in-game, but the sprites are primarily from Super Mario World or Paper Mario, while the music comes from many different SNES Mario titles (or Paper Mario: Sticker Star). The one-button gameplay philosophy is meant to be an evolution of Egg Catcher (Kirby's Adventure) and Rock Harden (Pokémon Stadium), which has been written about a lot on KoopaTV. Gameplay analysis is also provided there. #supermario #mobile #onebutton #koopa #game #arcade
