[@somestupiddudewithayoutube4676]

[@stellaviewer9849]

The purple fish are probably disappearing, because of the enemy behavior. The purple fish are supposed to lock onto Mario, but the water has caused them to glitch out of existence. They don't disappear until you're near them.

[@ajl4878]

My thoughts too

[@rubixtheslime]

Yeah, more specificallybecause they have special behavior out of water. When ambient, the devs likely assumed they'll always place them in the water so there no need to check, but when targeting they're supposed to jump out and then fall. Because of that last part, I'm guessing either a) they're teleported downward to the water surface (in this case that likely means somewhere below the screen), b) they try to (literally in a try block), but because there's no water they have an exception that simply deletes them, or c) (most likely imo) their velocity isn't properly set unless they're actually in the water (once they leave the water they can't control themselves, physics takes over so the only things happening to their velocity is `+= [0, -g/dt]`) so they fly away at the speed of light.

[@theslumpis2363]

The purple fish disappear when they see you because part of their AI is not going out of the water, so when there's no water they just die as an error.

[@NIntender684]

17:03 You could try doing that in co-op mode. Also, I think the reason why the spike fish keep disappearing is that the behavior for when they cause only works underwater.

[@johnmchugh7905]

1:47 it is possible but it requires really precise wall jumps with the mini mushroom and if done right the mini mushroom will allow you to get a jump in mid air which is enough to get you over the wall I tried it out to test for myself and I found that ground pounding the slanted part of the floor at the far right, wall jumping off the back wall will get you about halfway up the right wall, then if done right you'll jump instead of wall jumping and clear the wall

I love how the fish continues to swim in oxygen despite zero water molecules in there.

[@just_an_internet_explorer8038]

It is quite humorous to see the species known as Cheep Cheep and their many genus, interact with the Oxygen in the area as if it were H2O. Completely disregarding the widely known fact that one simply cannot just swim in air. Not only is it quite improbable, but fish are also not adapted to move through the air, since it is less dense and when they jump out of the water, they cannot stay up in air for long.
