I apologize for the necropost, but I've only just found this release. I have been having an absolute blast with Bean and ran through the game quite a few times (along with some map packs) trying to master his abilities. However, I've started to feel like he's a bit too strong after getting a...

Great to see Advance Wars content!

As someone that didn't start playing until 2.0, I rather like Final Demo Zone outside of the mazelike bits in Castle Eggman. It's fairly easy to compare Greenflower and Techno Hill to their modern counterparts, and it's easier to appreciate how well designed obstacles are in 2.2 when one sees...

?????????????????????

I don't like playing this mod on its own, but it works wonderfully with the Character Randomizer. Getting a limited time to abuse Egg Robo's infinite flight makes the character much more interesting.

Jumping in that section doesn't work too well. If they wanted you to jump, they wouldn't have put those springs on the roof that send you into the lava if you have any upward momentum. I tried to do that section with double jumping twice before giving up and trying the fall jump input on a whim.

I see it as a reference to Poppy Bros boss fight, where the same rule applies. The character boss fights are closer to being minibosses (which only provide projectiles to fire back) than bosses (which sometimes drop abilities to use). In the 2D games, the low ceilings and cramped spaces...

By chance, would it be possible to get a toggle that allows us to see the name of the next skin below the countdown? It would be nice to be able to plan around the incoming character.

The framerate tanks the hardest when rendering the spikeballs in Castle Eggman; is it possible to turn those off individually?

The whirlwind shield's passive ability is being the best shield in the game already.

Tremendously fun.

Turning on half the board's custom characters and setting the timer to 7 seconds has given me one of the most fun experiences I've had in a while.

What levels in SRB2 are 'just speed'? This is a platformer, not a racer. Edit: Looking at your speedruns, it looks like the biggest issue with the bounce is needing to cancel it to shoot Super Sneakers.

Fang can't jump over half the level while running. Tails doesn't go any faster while flying than he does while running, but he's still the fastest speedrun character for most of the stages.

I believe you're missing the point here. The momentum loss associated with entering/exiting a bounce is minimized by...not entering/exiting bounces all the time. With the existing system, every chained bounce Fang performs is essentially momentum saved that would have otherwise been lost if...
