Three new stages were produced within the span of two weeks. A video showcasing the demo was uploaded to his Niconico account a few days later and garnered over 1000 views shortly after, which prompted Chiku to make the demo a full game. The first stage was completed in three days and presented at a cultural festival hosted at his college campus, becoming the most popular work presented. due to its massive recognition and popularity. Chiku chose to make his game a spoof of Super Mario Bros. The game was designed by independent Japanese game developer "Chiku", and was inspired by The Big Adventure of Owata, a similar game released through the Japanese 2channel message board a year prior. Syobon Action was released as freeware for Windows in February 2007. Some designers have commented on how the game requires the player to think logically through trial-and-error in order to complete the game at defeating the main antagonist called Onion King. Despite the surprise factor of these traps, the levels do not change between plays, allowing the player to memorize their locations and patterns and eventually make progress.
gameplay, including normal-looking ground tiles that fall away into pits, blocks that sprout spikes when touched, enemies that spawn nearly on top of the character, deadly background scenery, coin blocks rigged at the edge of a pit to cause the character to fall down, and a Mario-style flagpole that kills the character in two different ways. The game consists of four levels (six in the online version) riddled with traps designed to trick the player, and abuse their previous knowledge of Super Mario Bros.
The player controls a kitten-like character (with an appearance similar to Toro Inoue) who must venture through side-scrolling platform levels similar to Super Mario Bros.
