This video is a conglomeration of my completions of many of the hard stars in NoD.

0:00 C8 reds

In general, I liked this level. Reds here only took me a few attempts, so that was nice. The koopa race was a bit difficult though, and the cannon shot is a bit tough to set up.

10:37 C10 reds

I absolutely hated star 1 in this level, but the rest of it was okay. The green tower coin collecting is a bit tricky but with a lot of practice I ended up fine. Just a meh level overall.

14:56 C11 reds

Nothing too special about this level, just a bunch of platforming and you're done.

28:27 C12 reds

The hardest star in the game in my opinion. The WC section is quite tight and I had to practice it for a couple hours. On top of that, spawn is quite extensive and a bit annoying, so there's that. Overall I fared fine with this level.

39:23 C3 reds

Boy, oh boy, was this an interesting one. I rage quit at this star around 4 years ago when I initially attempted it - this star alone was what made me quit the game for several years. When I came back to this game, I skipped this level for a while as I was still reluctant to attempt it. Finally, after getting most of the stars in the game, I decided to thoroughly practice this star and completely chill out to avoid under any circumstance a repeat of what happened a long time ago. As a result, I literally got this star first try. No idea how that happened, but it did. So happy to get this star.

This level was initially very brutal for me - I spent multiple hours on star 1 and struggled with spawn a ton. However, once you gain consistency at spawn this level actually isn't that bad. Reds took around 20 mins of attempts.

1:09:57 B3 reds

This level isn't all that hard. For reds, the main hard part is the incredibly tight WC section during which you get the 4th and 5th red coin. I choked quite a few times due to running out of time. After that, the star is quite straightforward other than the nerve-wracking jump that is the arch after the 7th red coin. This was quite hilarious, I literally spent 2 and a half freaking minutes just wallkicking at the arch LOL. Nevertheless I still made it, but that was pretty damn funny.

1:23:57 Final fight

Little harder than usual bowser fight, nothing too crazy though.


Overall, this hack was kind of a mixed bag, but I found some enjoyment out of it. It had its decent levels, its okay levels and its terrible levels (C7 Kappa). But this wasn't anything too horrendous. It's like KBR2 but with bad cam and the levels being shorter and not as hard. I guess I'd recommend this hack if you want a nice challenge but are also fine with playing older and rough hacks.
