Today, after a few months, it shall be the third revision of the program with several improvements of a purely graphic (see additional animations, better textures to finish levels etc.). Optimizations and gameplay as the completion of the enemy AI, the 'adding invisible blocks and other minor details, remember that you can play all levels with Mario with Luigi.
Below you will find a demonstration video, the full changelog, and the link to download.

• Improved the animation code by using INSTEAD OF timers counter based (still dislike the timer module hugely though)
• Added Invisible blocks in (YAY!)
• Completely changed the movement and jumping to a more progressive form static Rather Than by this I mean you can build up speed and speed loss by moving / not moving, same goes for jumping, the Longer you hold X the higher you jump just Compared to tapping it.
• Added clipping logic blocks on WHERE you if you'd barely clipped a block to be Placed on the side Which you hit it Rather Than Actually hitting it. (Used in the brick blocks,? Mark Invisible blocks and blocks)

• Have a "OK" menu now Which Should not confused anyone on Which character to pick the GFX still isn't great at loading screen is Now Also Present Takes 3 seconds to load everything
• Reverted to using the classic old school Mario 8bit graphics, fit in with the game a lot better now and less hassle for me seeing as the custom sprites Exactly Were not used to the stairs.

Saw this posted on 2ch earlier. Said to be a Prototype 3DS but looks fake as arseholes to me. The guy explains that the system has features such as smoothing filters for playing up-scaled DS games, a pressure sensitive touch screen, rotatable controls, and 3D Augmented Reality capabilities. Even though it's obviously a fake there's plenty of nice screenshots to look at on the blog.
