The music is kinda nice

It feels like they didn't think a lot of things through. Which is bizarre to see in a mainline Nintendo franchise

Example: there are these giant mushrooms and when you get close, they put out spores that hurt you

There's a hallway with two of them; one is to the left, and the next is to the right

So you have to weave to not get hurt, right?

Wrong. Even if you weave, you'll get hit by both

Choices That Don't Matter is a cardinal sin of game design, especially when the level telegraphs that you should take a specific approach

I'm not that mad at it I'm just fascinated

The game had a rushed development. Rareware was being sold off so they couldn't spend longer time developing it. A lot of planned content.

As for the mushrooms that spray out... I'm pretty sure you can stun them. But you can just whack a fruit tree and recover health afterwards.
