Super Mario & the Hunt for Golden Turnips

Super Mario & The Hunt for Golden Turnips is a 2.5D Mario platformer that takes place in the Luncheon Kingdom. The game is developed with the assistance of Nightcap Devs. for the Nintendo Switch.
==Plot==
===Opening===
A bunch of Volbonans can be seen making their way down the mountains with a bunch of giant baskets. These baskets contain a bunch of Golden Turnips, which the Volbonans are planning to use for their Stupendous Stew. The Cooking Carnival is around the corner and the Volbonans want to make sure the people on the carnival enjoy the food. However as they stop to take a break, a giant bird can be seen flying in the sky alongside smaller birds.
Meanwhile, Mario,Luigi and Yoshi arrive at the entrance of the Peronza Village. Yoshi's stomach growls and the Mario Bros. start to look around for food. Suddenly, they hear a bunch of screams coming from the plaza. Mario looks over and sees a familiar enemy stealing the giant bowl of stew. This enemy is none other than the Cookatiel. Mario,Luigi and Yoshi waste no time making their way to the Plaza.
==Gameplay==
This game plays like most 2D Mario games. However, this game has a bigger focus on exploration. The goal is to find three Golden Turnips scattered around each level. They're usually lying around in plain sight and all Mario has to do is drop them in a pot, which are usually very close to the Golden Turnip's location. Once Mario throw all 3 of the turnips in the pots,he will complete a level. Mario can still attack while holding a Golden Turnip, but if he gets hit, he'll drop the turnip. In this game, Mario has a health bar, so you don't have to worry about dying in one hit if you don't have a power-up.
