I designed a level with Silver Stars. I ran over and grabbed the last one, but hit a wall at the same time (since the Silver Star was close to it). Mario did the squish-against-wall-and-fall-down animation, and layed down on the floor as the Shine Sprite appeared. When Mario layed down, I pressed the Up and Left arrow keys so, after the Shine Sprite was done, I could jump over a Goomba, not die, and grab the Sprite. When I pressed the keys, Mario started to do the getting-up animation, but, just before he actually stood up, he layed back down, the keys wouldn't work again, and he instantly died. I performed it a second time to make sure I wasn't nuts, and I realized that, when he died, the Health Pie thing didn't change at all. I did the same thing with a Red Coin and the same thing occurred.
Anyone else notice this?
