A 3D Flash game by the name of "Super Mario 3D" would be released in a unknown date, the game itself was just a asset-change of "Dream: The Game" by Glen Rhodes, with Mario Due to the developer not knowing too much about coding in Flash, the game was a buggy mess, [1/2]

This game was not nominated for Game of the Year, in favor of a card game and a DLC🚀 It’s not an award show. It’s an advertisement masquerading as an award show😅 (cheers @fe44lh🙌🏼)
