Jumping to victory!

I am back with Mario Maker 2 and the Summer Games Done Quick 2025 levels! Last time, while I beat 2 levels, it took me 2 and a half hours to beat the 2nd level. I didn't plan on that happening this week.

Break Stuff by SaucePow was the first level I checked out today. The goal... break shit as mega Mario and have a smooth forward drive. It took me a few tries to realize I had to hit the ON/OFF block, grab the mega mushroom, then small hop on the Bob-omb. Had I tried to do big jumps, I would've gotten hit. Next, I have to quickly jump off of a chain chomp stump and land in the falling Goomba Shoe. Didn't take me very long to get that down. After I jump out of the Goomba Shoe, I have to bounce off a lone buzzy shell, hit an ON/OFF switch, bounce off a item block, and bounce off a spring. I know that's a lot to take in. But it only took me about less than a minute to get that down. Next up, I have to bounce off and destroy an item block so I can jump off a noteblock, bounce off a buzzy shell, bounce a mechakoopa off an item block, jump off a 2nd buzzy shell, and small hop off the mechakoopa. Only takes me a couple minutes to get that successfully. I was close a few times before. Just being a pixel short of landing on the mechakoopa or taking spikes to the face. Either way, next up I have to bounce off a noteblock to let a spike ball pop out, and break a couple item blocks so I can let the spike ball roll all the way to the ON/OFF block. Of course I actually have to jump on the 2nd item block or else everything goes horribly wrong. After that, I have to be quick to break the 2 item blocks above me. And I have to ideally get both of them at the same time or I am more likely to get hit by the spike ball. And I don't want that. After a few slip-ups, I break those item blocks and avoid the falling munchers. The next section looks a little tricky. But it's not that bad. Jump off of a buzzy shell, break one item block. Jump off the 2nd buzzy shell, break the 2nd item block, bounce off the flying item block, slip inside the Goomba Shoe, quickly hop off it, bounce off the parachuted buzzy shell. Did I get it off first try? Lol no. I just let the Goomba Shoe take me to death.

After more deaths and restarts later... sometimes I make it look harder than it needs to be to keep that mega mushroom. But I hop off the parachuted buzzy shell. The next section, I have to break an item block, jump off a ball cannon, small hop off a buzzy shell, bounce off a POW block, jump off a fast skull train, knock in a large buzzy shell, jump off it, bounce off the POW block on the muncher which will make the coin jump on a note block which gives me access to the pipe. Oh boy that was a handful. For some reason this part took me the longest to do. Plus every time I died, I had to start all the way from the beginning. So of course I also made mistakes along other parts of the levels. 13 minutes later, I finally make it through the pipe... and begins the 2nd half of the level. Alright... I can do this! What's first? Well I have to break an item block above me which will let a Goomba Shoe jump off a spring, ride off a conveyor belt, all while I jump off a buzzy shell, break an item block, hop inside the shoe jump on an ON/OFF switch, get away quickly so the muncher doesn't fall on me, bounce off the buzzy shell to let the spring drop, bounce off the item block, then bounce off the spring, then get in the parachuted bone shell that spits out the pipe. AKA, a bigger handful. After that, I quickly hop out of the bone shell, bounce off another buzzy shell, break an item block so a giant red ball shooter can slide off a conveyor belt. Then I have to small hop off a mechakoopa then curve around so I can land on the giant red ball shooter and then quickly move and jump so I can jump off the cannon ball because a fireball is threatening to land on my head. After I get that down, I have to break an item block which will activate a POW block, land back on the falling blue platform so then the coin on the noteblock can poop out a flying koopa. I have to bounce off the koopa, break an item block to let a spring fall and then get on a skull train. And for some reason I thought I had to bonk my head on the noteblock... that failed horribly.

I have to jump off the spring, over the spikes, break 2 item blocks and hit an ON/OFF switch. Avoid the fire flowers. They look tempting. But don't touch them. After that, I have to break 3 more item blocks, push a buzzy shell into the one way blocks, hop off the chain chomp stumps to let the Monty Moles pop out. I actually got close the first time. I was just a little too low when jumping off the skull train. I need to be quicker with that. And I can't lose my mega form because there's another 1 block gap at the final pipe that only my mega self can get through. But eventually, I hit that ON/OFF switch and get through the pipe! I am able to break the 2 item blocks before Mr. Thwomp can hit them. After that, the flag is mine! Wow! A level that didn't take me 2 and a half hours to beat! HUZZAH! Anyways... I had some time left in the stream to check out the next level. So I figured I'd do that! Return to Form by Kellyy was next. And this just starts right off the bat with action. There's a Boo on a Thwomp I have to jump over, do a P-Switch Jump... something I am very familiar with. I have to move quick because there's a deadly fire bar I have to get past. So I have to quickly get to the bumper, spin on it so I can spin off the buzzy shell and grab the POW block. Jump off a Mechakoopa and over another Boo on a Thwomp. I then have to safely drop the POW block so I can grab the next P-Switch and... welp... that as far as I get. I'm thinking I have to either quickly drop the P-Switch on the POW block so I can activate it. Or quickly throw the P-Switch on to the spikes and get off the POW before it starts to fall off the conveyor because there is a line of invisible blocks. And if I get below that line, well then it's game over.

Or I do neither and I'm just talking out of my ass.
