This is just a level that I made. I hope you have a good time with it.

Hey there! I just reviewed your level and here's what I think:

- There were so many fire flowers at the beginning. Two would've been more than enough, considering the fact that you're providing 2 Yoshis as well.
- Is there really any need for the initial message? Most players would be curious to see what's buried, especially if it's at the very beginning of the level.
- I personally wouldn't recommend placing several enemies close to your starting position. It's not that they were difficult to kill but it can catch some players off guard a bit.
- Is the player not intended to go through the same door again (from section 2 to section 1) as the door background was there?
- When I beat Birdo at the end, nothing happened. I tried seeing if there was a hidden block or something but alas, I had to kill myself. How's the level supposed to end?
- The whole level felt a bit short to me. That in itself is not bad but I didn't feel like there was much of a challenge to it, really. Perhaps add some puzzles or more platforming options?
- Music seemed to fit each section and there's nothing wrong with using non-custom tracks.
- The level background felt a bit bland and I don't recall seeing any coins or coin blocks. Perhaps make the scenery feel a bit more natural and less 'blocky'? And maybe make the airship go up and down or add a propeller to its back?
- When I was falling down the pipe in the last section, at first I thought the black background was a cut-off error and only then realised it was used as the sail for the airship (which I thought was quite clever).

Overall, the level feels like it's missing something. It's not bad per se but I would recommend adding some challenges, getting rid of the unnecessary 2 power-ups at the beginning and reviewing the ending (see comment above). I would give this level a rating of 4/10.

I'll try to improve this. Thank god that my level didn't go to the trash can.

We don't move levels to the subforums anymore

Also if you didn't know keep all of your levels in one thread

Hey maybe with some improvements, it could feel more like an actual level from SMB3. Don't give up, it can still be polished!
