It's beatable, and a fairly decent challenge (for the coin in the beginning that's "too high to reach", I suggest getting a running start and holding the up arrow when you jump on the Paratroopa -- you jump much higher, and if you miss you can always go back outside the cave and give that Paratroopa a chance to drink a Red Bull). The "race the shell" was a nice touch, as well as the "switch" that does something you don't expect it to.
What I didn't like, however, was what pretty much amounted to a forced hit on the Paratroopa smack dab in the middle of that cave in the first section. Knock it aside, and it takes out the one you'll need in two seconds to clear that gap. Dive under it, and it's quite difficult to recover in time to grab the red coin just past it. There were also a few graphical inconsistencies (mainly around the lava pit), but overall it was a nicely designed level.
I'll give it a 4.0/5 for level design, and a 2.5/5 for difficulty.
Thank you for the criticism! It wasn't intended to be a forced hit on the Paratroopa, but that's how it turned out. And the graphical inconsistencies were due to me rushing certain areas.
But thanks a bunch!
