Hi, is there a way to get all the coins but without collecting them? Im too lazy and dont want to do it by myself

Some The Conquest trivia for you nerds out there:
- The working title for the project was swampert
- The only levels not made by me are Buster Hill, Gentle Cloud Jumping and half of Freshwater Oasis, all of which were by Waddle
- It was originally more of a collab project but everyone was working on Betterified or other things. I was also working on Betterified, which is why 50 of the game's levels were made in 2024.
- Project development period is exactly 2 years to the day, June 13 2022 to June 13 2024, but I delayed release for a week while waiting for a SMBX2 patch.
- First thing I did for this project was make a flow chart of the world map using draw.io from which the level names were derives (1-L1, 2-B1, etc). This map barely changed during development. Most notable change was the introduction of the shortcut route and World 8 not sucking ass
- I started tracking completion% when 26 out of 102 levels were done
- There are 129 levels in total
- I tried using all basegame elements in this episode, but I failed, because I never used the Luigi NPC.

I am currently working on a small balance patch for this episode.
It will make the game easier and increase the fun meter. That's right. I have added a minigame cloud to 3-3.
It will still take some time to finish this patch (a month?), as I have a lot of levels to comb through.
So in the meantime, please enjoy this screenshot.

I am making this announcement so people just starting to play can choose whether they want to wait for the patch or play on the current version.
It will be possible to update your game mid-playthrough as well. It might be fun to play the current version, then upgrade, and see the changes.

Welcome to The Conquest 2.
I have overhauled the entire project, ironing out issues regarding the game's difficulty, areas I didn't like, areas I got feedback on from the community.
Is it better? That's for you to judge! Is it different! Oh yes. In fact, just about every level is changed in one way or another.
It's really too many changes to go over, so I highlighted the most important ones in the changelog.
Even if you have played the game before, and even though the level count, collectible count, and exit count is exactly the same, there are perhaps enough changes to warrant another few idle play sessions, hmm?

In any case, I hope you enjoy! Please let me know if you run into any issues. Or let me know if you run into anything fun! I like to hear about the good and the bad. That's what this is all about, after all.

Just asking, is there any code in brick-break brouhaha's decorations that I can forcefully strip out so that it can run on my chuggin' laptop? I won't lie, the decorations are fantastic and all, but I can't beat the level with how much lag it's causing me.

If I may, which file in the level's folder does that? I don't want to accidentally fiddle with something that would absolutely break this fantastic (genuine, I like this level) level, rendering further playing of it impossible.
