[SMS:Eclipse 6] Erto Rock (Backlogging 39)
1Is Mario part goat? Because he is sprinting up those 80 degree slopes! Yoshi's also getting a workout.
I really like this area's theme. It's pleasantly upbeat. Like we're removed from the troubles of the world, which the Piantas kind of are here. They're out here playing tag and hide and seek. Quite a few of the shines are available to grab in most scenarios as well, even if they have an entire "level" dedicated to them on the Shine Sprite level select screen. No Luigi yet though, hmm, but we do get a usable normal sized door(most video game environments are actually 30%~ bigger than you'd expect for gameplay reasons).
And correction, people have actually posted locations of all the Shine Sprite's and Blue Coins in these levels, but they're not very well documented/edited. Lot of downtime in those videos. I suppose I could make videos for them myself, but I'm lazy.
