Editing Flies & Hand

''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Paint}}'' is a multi-purpose art utility for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System that came bundled with a rolling-ball mouse and mousepad - the game featured three modes: Drawing Mode, Music Mode, and Flies & Hand's origin mode {{s|mariowiki|Gnat Attack}}, a mini game where the player uses the SNES Mouse to move the hand holding a flyswatter and attempt to swat the insects of increasing size and number. The player must defeat one hundred flies in order to complete the three levels, leading to a boss battle against {{s|mariowiki|King Watinga}}. After the boss is defeated, the game loops and adds a tiny icon at the top left of the screen, these icons depict figures such as [[Mario]], a rocket, a chicken, a mermaid, a Game Boy, and the infamous ''Mario Paint'' {{s|mariowiki|baby face}}.

The Gnat Attack minigame reappeared in the {{uv|Wario}} game ''{{s|mariowiki|WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!}}'' under the name "Fly Swatter", and later reappeared in one of ''Mario Paint''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s spiritual successors, the first ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}''. It has also been referenced through microgames in ''{{s|mariowiki|WarioWare Gold}}'' and another one of ''Mario Paint''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s successor games, ''{{s|mariowiki|WarioWare D.I.Y.}}'' Although it didn't make the final release, a variant of Gnat Attack was found in a prototype of ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Artist: Paint Studio}}'', which implies the hand to be Mario's through its life bar.
