This "awful" Super Mario Photoshop remake actually brings a brilliantly low-fi art style to the game

We're seeing an awful lot of Super Mario remakes at the moment. Actually, we're seeing a lot of remakes in general – in large part thanks to some very creative uses of Unreal Engine 5. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of these retro reimaginings and the skill it's taken to produce them, and I hope they continue. But I've found a slightly different type of remake, and I'm obsessed with how the creator labels it awful when I think it's genius-ly low-fi.
