Description: A Small hack that's created for an important person in my life, my father, who's also really into the Super Mario series as much as I am. I also wanted to share this publicly as well. This is a 24-Exit hack (Also counting the final level +1) containing (mostly) 1-screen rooms.

Moderated without too much issue. I did raise the difficulty to intermediate. On the execution end beginner felt mostly appropriate, but this had a few sharp knowledge checks that I felt were well outside what would be expected of a beginner (most notably
yoshi zips and p-switch pit respawning
).

What is the tech or secret of Spooky Switch (!)? I'm lost on that. Anyway, here is some feedback on all the levels up to that point.

Overall Thoughts
- Level restarts should be quicker
- Black text on the main screen menu is a bit hard to read.

Bright Shell Jump:
- Too difficult of a start for a beginner hack and the setup to hit the shell and then the star took me a while to figure out and wasn’t obvious.
- Even when I got the combo it seemed more lucky than something I could do consistently
- I would recommend changing the star to a mushroom and then just do a standard shell jump
- I would recommend putting in a Message Block explaining what you want and maybe some coins to show the setup points
- Need an easier way to restart or die if you get the star but don’t clear the shell jump as you have to wait a long time for the invincibility to wear off before you can try again

D.I.Y. Stairs maybe
- Fun level that isn’t too difficult once you figure out what needs to be done.
- Not sure if there is a way to start with a message or block to explain the concept of what needs to be done prior just falling out of the pipe at the start.

Be Quick
- Nothing too bad here, took me 2 deaths to figure out what I needed to do

Fittest Survival
- I guess the title should be clear that it is just a jump back and forth and survive until Yoshi falls down but maybe for a beginner hack make it clearer that is the expectation as I spent a while trying to figure out if I needed to do some other trick to get into the pipe from the flying platform.
- I died the first time after making it into the pipe due to the troll that you need to be holding the jump button to fall successfully onto the next flying platform. The troll felt a little mean after surviving the first section but not the end of the world.

Look Carefully
- I liked the puzzle nature of this one, it took a few tries to figure out the timing on the first P-switch but nothing too bad

Completely agree with everything said here. Also stuck on the spooky switch. But well said, should be classified as intermediate at least or do as you said and change a bunch of setups.

So, um... How do you do a "bright shell jump"?

Mario has to collect the star after bouncing off the shell while a shell jump is performed. I based off this off of a recent hack that got rejected as it gave me some sort of idea.

Not sure if this is a suitable first obstacle in a beginner hack.
