Apparently, it all started on October 16, 2007, when the Cheetahmen became a huge internet meme in Japan.

...So, they changed X speeds, music, and the title GFX.

Apart from the music, is this supposed to be impressive for some reason?

Wow, it took that guy forever to do anything. At the end of 1-1 he just sat there for over 30 "time" units (~10-15 seconds in the real world I think). Kinda dumb really...

Well, it was amusing to see the Goombas fly around in level 2, but besides that, uhh...

It looks way too playable to be a Cheetahmen game

This is a meme?

I'd believe it. It's dumb enough.

I can see a better implemented space jump(or double jump) of his being fun. But yeah, this doesn't really scream "awesome."

It really seems more of a test hack to try out various features one would eventually iron out to be less zany and more playable. Faster Goombas are good, but his are too fast. Higher jumping can add to gameplay, but his Mario jumps too high.

Music was cool though.

If you actually pay attention, he intentionally delays so the music fully loops once.

Still doesn't excuse the fact that it's retarded. :\

What I find amusing is that we can pinpoint the precise date it became a meme.

The best part of this is not the Cheetahmen video itself, but the OTHER videos that come up at the end. Lots of hardcore techno remixes of the Cheetahmen theme.

The whole point of those edits was to make the game more like Cheetahmen II, not necessarily add to the game's fun or playability factors. Unfortunately, he's got a long way to go before he reaches that game's level of unplayability.

I don't know why I put this here.
Yeah, he'll need to add in some random playable characters and make the last couple levels completely unfinishable first!

Though it would be interesting if he simply made all the enemies and items behave like that, and make the game a hard version with it. (Sort of like SMB3 Challenge, but on acid.)

Also, Mario will need to be expanded to take up at least two thirds of the screen's height, of course...

I recently discovered that people had gotten past the first few enemies of Cheetahmen II- I have no idea how you pull even that off...

You know, until recently, I wondered if it was just me who noticed lots of Cheetahmen stuff coming out of Japan. I'm glad I'm not crazy.
