To spare you the trouble/mercy, it was a level in World 8 that was utterly ridiculous in terms of difficulty. You don't hear much "hate" on the level usually because (1) they actually liked the level, (2) few people played it- whether giving up on the collab during World 2-4, (3) took the "normal" route in World 8, or (4) because of Raocow.

I'll try out the updated version of this level now, so I'll try to make an edit when I'm done.

This might be a dumb question, but is it necessary for them to be nonstompable in the first place? When I look at setups like screen D of 12B, I wonder whether they're a little more annoying than they have to be. Just an idea, though.

In any case, though, it sounds like you liked the generator where it was, so why not tear down the dividing wall in a spot or two so the parallel paths aren't completely segregated? Then you could move the second powerup a bit further into the section- or even relocate it to the beginning, next to the midpoint.

By the way, the spiketer on screen 1/2 of that section just screams cheap to me, because it'll appear during the descent of a long jump and it will be very hard to dodge. Might just be a personal thing, but I don't like setups like these because they leave so little wiggle room for unsuspecting players.

It was usually in plain sight or out of the way for me by the time I let the Eeries pass by. I guess I could just remove him if it's that much of an issue.
