SMW challenge by eatmy123: Go through four levels, and upon reaching the end of each level, return to the start of the level, then go back and clear the level. Also, I must collect 5 Yoshi Coins in each level, and I can't take any damage during all this.

This challenge is somewhat similar to poddish's challenge (#31), although this has me clearing every level after returning to start. As such, I made sure to pick different levels than in poddish's challenge.

Now, I don't consider getting hit while on Yoshi the same as taking damage, but of the levels I'm doing, only the first one has Yoshi, so if I should happen to lose Yoshi (which I stupidly do near the beginning of the second level), then I'm on my own for the rest of the challenge.

This did take me a few tries, due to some stupid moments in the first three levels (fortunately, the fourth went smoothly, although there was a close call). In fact, I repeated the beginning of the first level several times, just to get that enemy bouncing chain to work right! I also tried bouncing like that in the third level, but I clipped a platform, ruining the chain (but I wasn't about to restart the whole challenge at that point!).

Overworld music:
Main overworld: Chrono Trigger - Corridors of Time
Valley of Bowser: DKC2 - Welcome to Crocodile Isle
Level music:
Donut Plains 1: MegaMari - Cirno's Stage
Soda Lake: Super Mario Galaxy - Buoy Base
Chocolate Island 3: Sonic & Knuckles - Sky Sanctuary Zone
Valley of Bowser 3: Touhou 6 - Remilia's Theme - "Septette of the Dead Queen"
Bonus Game: Touhou 6 - Flandre's Theme - "U. N. Owen Was Her?"

Umm... Actually, that bonus game music ended up in there by accident. I meant to choose something else, but must've made a mistake, and I didn't notice it until I reached the bonus game! Oh, well. It's still great music, but the bonus game doesn't last nearly long enough to enjoy it fully.

I'd say this was a decent challenge.
Creativity: 6.5

I look forward to the next challenge!
