And one final gameplay note: It's a good idea to try and make a fun hack before a Kaizo hack. Kaizo hacks usually fall sort of the original because we've played/seen Kaizo, and it's not cute anymore.
Sorry for totally hogging your comments section, raocow, and sorry if I seem like I'm crapping all over your work celtic. I know ROMHacking is hard, but keep at it and you'll get better in time.
The color pallet works fine as it was originally, and changes rarely help. Please keep this in mind.
If it can be helped, try and figure out any glitches, especially in the game itself. If I recall, levels glitch when they go too high.
Random tiles everywhere might seem fun, but no one really likes walls of munchyplants or random moons in dirt. A line of munchyplants around a normal wall accomplishes the same things.
Invisible is never a good idea. Things we can't see are all dick moves.
Speaking of, try to use as few dick moves as possible. Blind jumps, hidden coin blocks, arrows pointing down into a pit (that last one can be used as a clever trick if you use it a lot to signify a way out early on.)
Dick moves in general just make people bitter. "Oh I got killed by an invisible Football Charlie. Great."
Also, Kaizo was Kaizo for a reason. PLEASE pull back on munchyplant/trick jumps. More coming.
Intentionally hard and intentionally unfair are very different things Captain. Invisible coin blocks and death traps that you have no way of knowing about in advance don't really test skill with a controller or critical thinking as much as they test patience.
Keep it conservative in the comments? Okay, then I shall commence to complain about taxes...

raocow's wisdom: it's pointless to just be like "oh my god this is horrible, i'm going to go and eat a bowl of soup", no that doesn't help anyone!

raocow, i am going to have to eat some soup.
this "hack" sure was something else.
i look forward to seeing what happens in the upcoming videos.

what the hell was wrong with yoshi

It's a glitch in SMW. When a Baby Yoshi is in the same level as a grown Yoshi, the grown Yoshi's head glitches.

Wow, this hack is really bad.

Where was the Checkerboard Nightmare reference? Kris Straub is one of my favorite artists.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
the best thing about complaining about dick moves is doing so on a hack that's intentionally hard

Intentionally hard and intentionally unfair are very different things Captain. Invisible coin blocks and death traps that you have no way of knowing about in advance don't really test skill with a controller or critical thinking as much as they test patience.
I did like the "oil" lava though.

true and true
also that glitched background still rubs me the wrong way

Do I really want to ask where the thread for this whole ordeal occurred?

I actually meant comments. Slip of the tongue!

Yesterday I maked a house out of legos. :D
Nice to hear that you're taking this whole ordeal like a gentleman. Constructive criticism kids! Its how we all improve.
I'd say this is pretty cute for a first attempt at a Mario romhack. Wouldn't be surprised if the entirety of the next stage is invisible though.
