Well, as a suggestion for Takoyaki Volcano 1, you can keep both keyholes and make the level a 3-exit one instead of 2, maybe you have to modify the overworld paths a bit. I've sent you some more feedback in Discord.

NEW BASE ROM:

HERE

- World 8 complete
- One Extra World Level
- South Nahow City normal exit

Wow, the finished hack.

Sorry for the delay, I'm busy lately with a lot of stuff. With that said, I gotta say, world 8 was easier than world 7, at least, in my experience. There's only one particular stage that was hard. So, before I talk about things that need to be fixed, I'll say about some stuff I liked.

Stuff I liked

GORILLA TANK



I forgot to tell you, but I really found this boss to be very neat and creative. Simple and intuitive to fight. Great job!

SPECIAL RICE FIELDS



Really neat use of one of my rips. But here's a suggestion for the level to look even better: adjust the palette. The grainy pattern of the ground fits nicely with the background, but the fences and flowers looks off. Here is a image of the original game, so you can have a idea of which tone of colors to use. You don't need to change the graphics, only adjusting the color would make the FG + BG perfect.

TAKIYAKI VOLCANO 3



Really creative gimmick. I find it to be very fun and challenging, so excellent job at that.

THINGS THAT NEED SOME IMPROVEMENT

UNFUNNY FISH ROUTE



Fix the color of berries at end of the level. The green of the bushes does not match the green surrounding the berry. Also, sorry, I confused Quagmire Quirks with Unfunny Fish Route in the last playtesting.

TAKIYAKI VOLCANO 3



You did write very well this message box, but there's a small error there. "Will you" is only used in interrogative sentences, the correct would be "you will". Aside from that, the gimmick is well explained, so good job at that.

VOLCANO OVERWORLD



While it looks okay, I think you should add some yellow / orange outlines near the lava to make it look a bit better. Some lava bubbles exanimation would help too.

BOB-OMB BATTLEFIELD AND INVIDIARY MEADOWS



I think you could make the green of the grass looks more closer to the background.

UNSEEN WIND OF DEATH



While it's a neat gimmick, I found it a bit nerve-wracking. If you can add a subtle hint, like a simple shadow or something, that would make this level more enjoyable for me. Not exactly a flaw per se, more like a suggestion.

Chuck's Arm



You can fix it with this simple patch. Make sure to always backup your project before inserting patches, though.

INVIDIARY MEADOWS



Like I said before, please make the big dino guys immune to fireballs, so the players must be careful and use the jump to defeat them.

OVERWORLD PLAYER



I suggest you use this overworld player for Waluigi. It has both Wario and Waluigi. Or you can use this overworld player too. Choose which one best fits your hack.

And well, that's all I have to say. You don't need to follow the palette improvements that I suggested, but they will make some of your levels look more beautiful.

Haven't got time to test fifth ROM, so I decided to wait for next ROM and then test it.

EDIT: Finished testing, the Takoyaki Volcano and Haunted levels have very nice gimmicks, and I think the intro screen text should be updated.

--------------------
Believe what you want, not every sentence is true.

Haters will always be haters and try and make you blue.

But blue is a pretty color, it doesn't have to end.

Even if the hate, is hidden within your "Friends".

NEW BASE ROM:

THIS SMW HACK IS NEAR COMPLETION...

Reminder:

-This SMW Hack have 12 Worlds.
-World 8 Overworld have some improvements.
-World 9 Castle is half-complete.
-World 10 is the final world.
-Still, i need some time for bosses from the anime/cartoons.
-I couldn't ever change the Dino-Rhino like enemy because my ASM knowledge is limited.
-Added Waluigi Overworld graphics.
-Other things, whatever...

Sorry for taking so long, I always restart the hacks so I make sure that everything is working properly, so yeah, took me two days to finish the demo. Anyway, I don't have much to say this time. World 9 felt easier than world 8, for some reason.

Anyway, there's some stuff you need to fix.

OVERWORLD ISSUES



For some reason, it only happens in the current version. The secret exit of this specific ghost house won't trigger and unlock the other path. You need to fix that, since everything else in the overworld seems to be working properly.



In the case here, you need to make the "outline" of the paths (the black color surrounding the path) to match with the one you use for the map (that blue dark color).

WAY COOL ICE CAP



The vine is almost invisible, because it blends with the background. I suggest adding a vine of other color.

That's it I have for now. Not much else to say. Good luck finishing the hack.
