Actually, I did have beta testers. They did comment on the difficulty of 1-1 (which I find difficult, too) along with the pink bushes. YIWT's full name is "Super Mario World 3: Yoshi's Island 2: World Tour" or something of the sort. Basically, it's a sequel (or more like additional levels). Remember this: this is a Peardian game... expect the unexpected. Anyone know the bubble jump? If you do, you might get something good...

My mind hurts from looking at those. Painful memories of Secret 6 (I think it was Secret) from the GBA version were brought back... argh, the falling into the spikes and the dying and the frustration... ARGH!


Sorry, heh. The levels look pretty good from the screens (I'm having a hard time finding a YI rom. ), but they do look hard. Maybe consider working on some new beginning levels? That's not saying scrap these - you have good late-game levels, it looks like.


Oh, and Kefka: I don't think Ganon's Tower was in Link's Awakening.

just by the screenshots alone, the difficulty looks pretty high...especially the last couple..ill probably try it, cause looks can be decieving...

I would have to agree with Kefka. I really don't like it when players complain that the level difficulty of a hack is high and the author says, "I think it's easy, I beat it in one try, my grandma, uncle and cousin beat it in one try, etc." I've said this so many times before that I've gotten really redundant, but Kefka is right about the author knowing every trick to beat the level easily. That's why you have beta testers, to get an outsider's opinion on the hack difficulty. But don't get discouraged if people tell you it's too hard. Listen to the input of everyone. The more advice you take, the better your hack will be. Afterall, we're experts here .

Hey! I'm still in school, too! I have hardly any time to hack! If it gets too hard, use the slow down button or save states. And besides, my brother even beat the levels... and he hates YI. Luckily, Thanksgiving is coming and the 24th I have off, so expect some 1-6 stuff.

yea, that's like a producer of Zelda: Link's Awakening going "The only level I found the least bit harder than easy was Ganon's Tower"... I mean, c'mon! You're the creator! You know your levels! Of course you're going to be able to beat them! Consider the rest of us, though! We don't know the levels. And since I'm still in school, I don't have 88888888 (I dunno why I picked 8) hours to work on beating hack levels.

Sorry if it sounded like a rant (which it probably was), but I just wanted to point that out. Graphics look nice... oh wait... yea, I know who made those now

WHOAMG Googie I hope your joking

As a beta tester, I didnt like this hack. But now, after playing past the first level despite the difficulty, I like it. Good job!

Can you belive my lady is mad cause I forgot her birthday? Meh, she'll get over it. Heres my 2 pesos of the demo...

Like the other fellas said the difficulty is high, but I like it. You got some mind when you made this demo. It's intense, I didn't want to stop playin till I was done. to me, your'e hack reminded me of Iggy Koopa's hack, very challenging. this is one YI hack that I'm looking forward to play in the future when it's complete. Keep up the good work on this okay?

Oh damn, her mother is here...with a, gun?

Yeah, just turn down the difficulty a notch. I say finish the levels, then spruce up the graphix. Long as u make a game I can beat then it's all good.

Bad color on dark background... hard to read text.

As for the hack... the inside castle screenies look too plain, I'll take a look at the hack and give more of a review.

--Edit--
After loading this thread 5 times, NOW it displays the white background...

Mind telling me what I need to patch this to? Three different roms, three failures.

Finally! I finished it! I fixed the trees and the pit problem. It also includes parts of a rough draft of 1-5. Here it is:

Also, here are some screens of 1-5 (currently unrenamed):
------------------------------------------------------------

Look familiar? The new beginning.

A very perilous level, indeed.

The Ricochet Chamber...

Hmm... Which way to choose?

What?! A switcheroo?

If you find anything else wrong, besides Burt's explosion, tell me.
