Super Mario Bros. 2 Infinite (Cancelled)

Is my first (uploaded, at least,) S.M.B.X. project.
It is basically just Super Mario Bros. 2 (U.S.A.), but with new (and remixed old) levels, new graphics, new mechanics, and new gameplay! Or to put it simpler, a Super Mario Bros. 2 themed S.M.B.X. episode...
It's still fairly early in development, but I will update this post constantly as the episode develops.
Progress: Story: Screenshots (So far) Hope you guys enjoy the project when it's finished! Please comment any suggestions for it in the comments, and have fun!
I should probably explain the cancel: I'm not actually cancelling this. I'm just going to work on other things, and other projects. I will eventually get back to this, but until then, have fun!

I'm pretty hard at work, but don't expect too much progress too fast. I'm only one person, and I have needs.

Why are the screenshots so painfully stretched?

The screenshots are not stretched, they're just being played normally on my Dell laptop. Oh wait, I see the problem.

This looks pretty neat, though there are two suggestions I have:
1. Try a different background in the indoor areas with the Metroid tileset - the vanilla SMB2 warehouse doesn't mesh too well there. Perhaps a darker, recolored version of it with grey bars instead of red ones would work better.
2. I love that you're using enemy stacks here (they're criminally underused), but you should probably set the ones on top to not move so that they don't fly all over the place.
Also, since you're taking screenshots in fullscreen they look stretched - this can be fixed by taking them when it's not in fullscreen.

I wish you luck in completing this project!

Not to be a nitpicker, but by judging the screenshots, i felt like you're being a bit too kind with the 1-up collecting in what i think is the first world...

Were you trying to make this episode "Newbie"-friendly early on?

Sort of, I kinda just wanted it to have lots of lives, because lives haven't mattered in a plat-former in a LONG time. Also, that Ninji bowling is mostly there for satisfaction, not lives.
