Part 7: The Higher you rise, the harder you fall

Cloud world and last, with 2 levels left from the previous one. This world has clouds haha and Palutena from Kid Icarus, sure. This was a hack aight

-Heaven's Gate: Basic cloud stage but overall alright, if you have the bullet power you can make the lakitu section free
-The Promised Land: Vertical level, nice to change things up, the negative? A hooded edge port, but i was near the end of the hack to drop it right here, another alright stage
-Icy Paradise: Level with 2 sections, Underwater and Icy, one of the highlights of this world for me
-Arubboth: And here we have Palutina, not Palutena, Palutina. This stage reminds me to Kirby for some reason, oh yeah this is also a new level i believe. The negative i can fin for this stage is the bridge building section, way to fill the time of completion. After that the stage is fall after fall and then boss
-Elysium: Yellow level, and im sure this one is fine but it's an autoscroller, a SLOW autoscroller, moving on
-Heaven Stars Ggalaxy: This level has Low Gravity, that's the main gimmick of the stage and can be a bit tricky to get used to. But other than that this stage is good
-Sainted Holy Ground: A stage where you go in reverse. Not a new mechanic or anything but it's a rare thing to do in hacks, and it uses vanilla tilesets too, nice level
-Dark Clouds:Lightning level with Ztars and Super Koopas, the level can repeat setups here and there but it's an ok stage, ilike how it also uses the lotuses
-Sorceress' Tower: Castle of world 8 and a tough one too. The main focus are the different Magikoopas and if you aren't careful it can cost you half the progress because reaching the midpoint is tricky. The part of the flying magikoopa is good enough, the boss is whatever but this section is good
-Shadow Temple: Gee it's kinda dark. Compared to the last level this one is... eh
-Bowser Pandaemonium: Throwback to SMAS and then an elevator section, meaning, slow and doesn't have much enemies outside of the bullet bills. Next section is platforming with bones, spikes and lava, after that is just a freefall section that last for too long but at least you wiggle back and forth, then the final boss is the vanilla bowser, the end. An Ok final level i guess
-Credits: Every or most of the hacks have these. Look i'm in there

Conclusion:
I don't remember most of the OG hack outside of the NES,SNES, Handheld era but it was a fine hack to see "Remastered" even if some stages felt old and with not much improovment in there. But the new additions are good regardless of the graphics that i don't like
