Valtteri: 6.5/10: This is a pretty cool level with interesting concepts, but pretty simple still. I don't like the overall looks of it, I think it lacks variety.

  This is a silly level. First of all it starts out like a normal level with all the Mario platforming elements and then it suddenly becomes a frenzy of Sparks that try to kill the player as they try and get the star. Even so, in terms of normal platforming, this level would have been better if it had maintained the moving water gimmick and the Skull Switch, but then the whole thing becomes plain daft. As soon as the player collects the dummy star they are thrown into a temple of sorts and they have to dodge a flurry of Sparks and Grinders, although mainly Sparks when trying to collect the real star, but if the player waits for too long, particularly in section 9, progress will be halted because the Sparks will fill up the whole screen and make any form of movement, including jumping, impossible without getting hit or dying, and the huge number can hint that this level isn't serious and it's just a joke. Also, the end caps it off with the Toad lying and Mario swearing - elements you won't see in your traditional Mario level.

  Awesome level! I really like the cool jungle atmosphere, and all the wooden platforms are nice decoration and design. The rising and falling water is nicely executed and creates a good challenge of timing. This level also uses very strategic placements of Lotuses to make the level tricky, and the ruins half of the level is a great surprise. I'm especially impressed by how you've implemented the Spark generators, they're extremely frequent but still fair. I really like how they literally flood one room the further in it you go, it's a very unique chase sequence that is quite visually convincing. However, it's pretty much imperative that this level be run with frameskip disabled, because Sparks very quickly eat up the performance even with just several on-screen at once. The story twist and ending are clever and silly, though.

  This level starts out in a swamp, obviously. It has solid design, pretty good aesthetics and minimal clash. The music fits, too. The next section has a cool gimmick where you need to swim in water before it lowers, then wait for it to rise again. At the end there were some Volcano Lotuses or whatever they’re called, meaning you had to run through. The waterfall section was cool, and at one point you get dumped into ruins after collecting the “star.” The ruins were FILLED with the electric owl things (I forget their name) and the saw blade things (I forget their name as well). They were very hard to avoid in the first part, but it was doable. My favorite section had you run from a group of them. It’s kind of weird that you’re rewarded with three 1-UPs after everything, but other than that, I really liked this level.

  Wow! What an amazing level! It flowed so well and the design was brilliant! I loved how the sparkies was used as an alternate to rising lava as they both forced the player to speed up, it was very creative! The rising water gimmick was neat, but I felt more could have been done with it. It was mainly going from area to area before the tide fell. For me, Section 7 felt a little overkill with the enemies and it could have been longer too, especially if you're playing that amazing music. Overall, great level!
  Valtteri: 10/10
  Amazing. What a fun level. The Spark chase thing was very creative, and I thought it was great how Mario ate Toad for revenge. I died when the water in that one section went down quickly. Maybe I wasn't paying attention, I should have seen it coming. And sometimes it just seemed inevitable that I would get hit by the Sparks. But overall, it's a great level and is constructed beautifully as well.

Man, I like how Ace would be in top 10, if castlewars wasn't gay. Without his review it'd be 8,9625.
"This is a silly level."
" and the huge number can hint that this level isn't serious and it's just a joke."
Mooth, other reviews don't mention it being jokeish.
Just checked yor all reviews. It seems yo only rated only this and my level badly. You did better job that I thought. Not bad.
Just don't drop scores for silliness or whatever yo call it plz.

..WAIT [18:47] <@Valtteri> mitä vittua 8.9625 sehän olis voittanu sillon
According to Valtteri this level could've won!

Also, the end caps it off with the Toad lying and Mario swearing
