8The fangame's main page is [[http://www.mfgg.net/midasmachine/ here]]. Unfortunately, the website hasn't been updated since 2015, and so the game appears to be limited to the 2014 demo, which you can download [[https://mfgg.net/index.php?act=resdb&param=02&c=2&id=30096 here]].

10A somehat more updated version is part of the MFGG 20th Anniversary Time Capsule which you can download [[https://www.mfgg.net/?act=resdb&param=02&c=2&id=38424 here]].

13* AssistCharacter: Takko in demo is one.
14* ButThouMust: In one demo level, the player is forced to be Mario because you have to use his wall jump ability.
15* ContinuityNod: There are a number of them in the demo:
16** Wario uses the [[VideoGame/WarioLand Dragon Wario]] form when he gets a fire flower.
17** When Waluigi gets a fire flower, his fireballs bounce like [[VideoGame/SuperMarioLand superballs]].
18** Luigi's fireballs fly in a [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros straight line]].
19** After beating a world boss, the game says [[VideoGame/PaperMario "End of Chapter"]].
20* GottaCatchThemAll: Mushrooms at the start of the demo, but after [[spoiler:Captain Syrup uses the Midas Machine, they become Golden Mushrooms]].
21* RunawayTrain: The first level of the demo's second world. [[spoiler: It's implied by E. Gadd that it would fall off a cliff soon]].
