Nice run. I wonder if going immediately for the 100 coin star and then the 8 coin star every time you enter a new level would be a good strat, since you’re guaranteed two 1-Ups after exiting, and since the stars are so coin-based it’s unlikely you’ll ever go that long without healing.

Cutscenes and dialogue boxes need to pause damage. Opening doors shouldn't be lethal.

Agreed, health should only be lost when you actually have control of Mario.

fire sea isn’t impossible at all, the heart near the warp regenerated your health proportionately to how fast you move through it. just build up hyperspeed lol ez

[@blazzzeboy]

yeh the healing is based on every 360 the heart does or something, pannenkeok has a video on it

[@TSnowpek]

The text boxes need to pause the damage and the rate of damage outta be the same as under water. Then it might actually be enjoyable

[@igorgiuseppe1862]

26:58 there is a bug in this game that this heart healing thing last a lot of time... i saw an explanation in some video , i cant remember wichone, but basically, the health of mario, is not an value from 0 to 8, but from... 0 to 65536 or something like that. the heart recover a lot of heart each frame for an certain ammount of frames, that is why the heart can recover you even after the health reach 100% (number of frames that it take effect) sometimes mario counter show 0 hp, but the real number is not 0 yet, so he is not dead yet.
