Okay, given the name of this project, the first question to come to your mind is probably, "If a game called 'Bowser in the Horrible
Nightmare' isn't a horror game, then what sort of game IS it?" Well, allow me to get to that, dear hopefully-future-player!

Genre-wise, this would probably qualify as an action-adventure. But the tone of it isn't exactly the typical non-stop bashfest with
bright colors flying everywhere. Though the very first level is quite Mario-ish, it quickly starts to become very somber, dark and
mysterious. What I'm aiming for is a gripping atmosphere which really draws the player in. But don't think for a second that this
is one of those "art" games where you just wander around a greyscale world and nothing really happens. This game contains just
as much classic challenge as it does newfangled atmospheric effects, and it will punish you if you're not constantly alert
and careful. Subcon is crawling with the minions of the resurrected King Wart, who is making the final preparations for his ultimate
plan (The in-game intro explains this in much greater detail.)

But you're not just any old chump, you're Bowser, king of the Koopas, and don't you forget it!


AN IMPORTANT NOTE: This game is designed for Fullscreen play. Playing in the tiny 400x300 window will make seeing nearly
impossible in certain levels. You can still switch to windowed mode by pressing F4, but I strongly advise that you don't.
