Yo guys, I'm back!
I'm here to announce that I'll be doing a Remastered Version of this episode - and maybe also for SMGX - to correct all the major flaws that you guys pointed out, in particular the lack of coins, checkpoints and various fixes to the levels.
Stay tuned, I'll post it soon in the Projects section.
hopefully this goes well. admittedly,i wasn't the greatest beta tester. looking back, i was extremely frustrated with late and post-game. the design wasn't too great in quite a few areas, but i haven't touched the episode since the first playthrough after release, so it may just be that my memory is bad. i'd offer to return, but got my own full plate as it stands. best of luck and i wish you well all the same.

I downloaded, I was so hyped.
I played the firsts levels, yeah that good ! the graphics are sometimes a bit weird but the first levels are good !... and then...
What the creator did ? I just try this episode, the custom graphics and the ideas are goods, but wtf the level design ?
It's ridiculously hard from the 3rd world, you dont see enemies, there are boss with no space for fight and these freakin angel jumps or bullets hell like with no power-up.
And i don't know if he's new to SMBX but ... Checkpoints ? Maybe ? If it's a remake, so remake them ?? Please test by other people to learn and dont do level only you knows how it's works. Please put yourself at the place of the player and dont do that "instant loose trap" : You must do a jump, so you can look very forward, and BOOM , or you take a pipe, and BOOM.
I've the feeling like i'm playing a Kaizo episodes, when you have to learn the level to finish it. Some universes likes Dreamland, Star Mountain, or Beach Galaxy are just impossible without cheating. And these abuse of Hammer Bro. . Just impossible.
I would give 4/10 now but just with good checkpoints, maybe 6/10 or 7/10

Please be more detailed about the levels you have trouble with. Working on your skills is a better alternative to raging. Also keep in mind that back then there could be only one checkpoint in old SMBX. It's not an easy episode but it's not a notoriously hard one either

Yes maybe it's my fault, you can think that if you want, but about checkpoints, on the 60 stars i've done, there's only 3 checkpoints, and there's some's levels, like the first star of Yoshi Resort, are pretty great : power-up, hard but comprehensible level design, but the next it's feels like it was made by an another person : No power-up but very long, at least 10 koopas chases you, gameplay repetitive.
The graphics, really are awesome, but some levels feels like unfinished, or he just dont care, like Twomps montains when the ground is filled on some points with corner, or there a big hole in the pipe. Just revised the level design and it would be perfect ! Like the false Bowser and the Minus World, it's surprised me.

Maybe I could provide you with gameplay tips if you show examples of where you're struggling. I only remember very few levels that could be annoying. Your feedback could also prove valuable for the WIP remaster

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Yeah, I've been replaying the episode while remastering it and I have to agree with you: I think the biggest lacks are coins and checkpoints. This wasn't my first episode but my first big one, plus I was very young when I made it; I can see my errors now haha.
There are many things I'm trying to improve, some courses will get almost remade from zero along with some boss fights.
When I have enough material I'll open a post in Projects, hope you guys will enjoy the new version.

When everyone forgets about it, including yourself
Last post was from end of March and he announced a lot of changes, so it's no surprise he's not done yet

Woah holy cow, this has been bumped back after so long, and I'm really hit with old memories flowing back, haha. I do remember some of the levels like the unknown planet, amongst other things.
BTW I just realized (to Spark) your PFP is a Plasma Wisp from Kirby Super Star lol.

Look awesome ! But we do it with SMBX 1.3.0.1 or with SMBX2 ? Maybe all épisodes are compatible with both versions ?
