NOW you're trying to cheat. I planned a SMB3 Recreation too, called Super Mario 3 R3creation and all level and map design are entirely original. Looks like you're about to have competition in your hands, no offense

Also, I'm sorry. I was really the one cheating on Ryan yesterday, even though it didn't really happen.

But anyways, I better check it out!

Overall, it's looking good so far. For the most part, the levels seem fairly faithful to their originals.

While it's cool to finally see a Boss Bass in action, the one in 3-3 is far too deadly because it jumps too high. The original level rises and sinks, leaving you half the time at the water's surface which was just enough for his small jumps to catch you. Right now he just feels like a Cheep-Cheep that pursues you (since he makes their long jumps every few seconds). Shorter jumps every time Boss Bass is almost under you coupled with a rising/sinking level will make the level perfect. Also 2 of the Cheep-Cheeps get stuck at the start of the level.

1-4 autoscrolls a bit slow. It feels like the level takes forever. Its Falling Platforms also don't move toward you. There are some here.

Airship cannonballs also move too fast. Slow them down by about half speed. The Rotating Cannon also fires 4 shots; it should only shoot 2. There is that version here.

I do have an idea for the Orange Note Blocks that cause you to spring up into a bonus cloud area. Right now, they spawn a vine that leads to an instant warp. Why not leave the instant warp as is, but re-sprite the Lost Levels Green Springboard into an orange block so that jumping on it causes you to shoot rapidly up in the air to that warp, mirroring its appearance in the original SMB3? Blocks could be placed on either side of the warp so that players won't go flying uncontrollably if they miss it by holding right or left.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for your thoughts! I will add almost all of these to the next update!
Though I could not get the spring to work for my purposes though... It was not able to be invisible and not able to be bumped like a noteblock on the bottom, and I could not be able to change it to do that, so that will not be in the next update unless I find a way.

To make the springboard appear when bumped, you'll have to make an invisible Note Block on a new layer that is active and the Springboard on another layer that is hidden. When you hit the invisible Note Block, it needs to run an event that hides the Note Block layer and shows the Springboard layer. Put them both in the same spot and you have yourself an accurate-to-original warp.

New version out!

Thanks to DisasterMaster for helping me with making the springboard and giving ideas on how to do things!

This is looking good so far, but right now I'm trying to test the upside-down Buzzy Beetles but as soon as they drop, my game's FPS drops down to 1.

I'm not sure if this is an issue on my end though,

Also you could use the chain chomps for 2-5
I hope this helps!

I think im still having the same issue

Maybe you should revert the npc to the way it was before and come back to fixing it later?
