Original SMW challenge from Pandeemama:
Complete Yoshi's Island 1 and Chocolate Island 2 while constantly moving forward, and without hitting a wall. However, running and sliding are not allowed. Also, no power ups are allowed either. (Note: I'm allowed to stop for a split-second to enter pipes if necessary.)

Last time, I didn't go for Chocolate Island 2's secret exit, but I decided I wanted to try it now, since olmi and Zeldara109 suggested it. I figured I could release right when I grab the key, and then jump repeatedly to maintain enough momentum to reach the keyhole without running or coming to a stop, and that works, but I had to get past the Chucks first...

So, about those Chucks... It took me a lot of tries and some rewind-assisted experimenting to figure out a decent way to get past them. If I get hit by a baseball, I lose, obviously. If I bounce off the left side of a Chuck, I'll be sent to the left, which means I'm no longer moving forward, so that fails the challenge as well (but, bouncing off the right side of a Chuck is fine). Also, if I avoid stomping one of the Chucks altogether, I have to worry about baseballs coming at me from behind, which have screwed me up a number of times after I got to the key and was on my way to the keyhole.

However, I eventually found a way to get past them without breaking any of the challenge rules that works for me, and then, several tries later, I successfully unlocked the secret exit on a real run!

Oh, and as for finishing the second area fast enough to reach the secret exit area in the first place, that wasn't too difficult. I just had to walk a little more on the downward slopes to speed up while jumping more often when I encountered the upward slopes to avoid slowing down as much. (However, on this run, I feel like I just barely reached the pipe right before the timer would've dropped below 250.)
