The missing eggs (formerly known as Yoshi Hawk) world 1 demo

Originally posted by Hack Description
This is my first hack which Ive been messing around with on and off. World 1 is about 90% done and wanted to submit it to receive some feedback.
Story as of now:
Yoshi eggs have been stolen from the castle's nursery with Mario out rescuing Peach again it is up to Yoshi to save the day from this mysterious newcomer.
Reasons:
First thing's first...this hack's not half bad in my opinion. Just fix the problems I mention and the hack should be just fine! However, the problems that it does have really hold it back. For instance:
TIME LIMITS
This is an easily-fixable problem present in nearly all of your levels, and it really puts a damper on how much they can be enjoyed and explored.
This is the entrance to a secret area in the level. Take note that there are 40 seconds left on the timer at this point. I should also mention that I did *not* dawdle or anything during this level. I took it at a seemingly reasonable pace yet somehow was left ridiculously low on time.
...and after a left-scrolling cave segment that the pipe took me to, I ended up here, with a Dragon Coin and 23 seconds left on the timer, with the goal nowhere in sight.
So yeah...I'd say add at least 100 seconds to your levels' time limits. Seriously, it gets obnoxious how annoying those short time limits are, especially when you encourage the player to try and hunt for the dragon coins in every level to earn Bonus Stars. (which, by the way, sounds like a pretty cool concept - I hope you have something nifty planned in the future to spend bonus stars on.  )
--
Next up is the fact that the Ghost House is annoyingly designed. It definitely would have to be my least favorite level in the hack. Why? because there are 4 different routes through the level...and two of them lead you all the way back to the very beginning of the stage. All that does is waste time and cause frustration - it's okay to have false routes that send you backward through the level, but in my opinion it just seems really annoying to have a route stick someone right back at the very opening screen of the level again. Maybe that's just me though. :/
--
Finally, I will address some smaller issues in the hack that alone are not too major, but you should probably fix.
The optional time attack challenge at Yoshi's House does not reset the time back to 0 when you're done with it - thus it is possible to get a Time-Up death at Yoshi's House even after you have completed the challenge.
This jump here seemed a bit blind, so I thought I'd point it out.
--
But yeah...overall, I'd say that otherwise you're doing a decent on this hack of yours, so just fix the problems I mentioned and keep up the good work, okay? ^_^;
