This level is only a "partial" reference to SMW3: Yoshi's Island's "Endless World of Yoshis." It isn't a full reference because I'm only replicating the PURPOSE of the level.
If you aren't enlightened, both THIS level and the other were inspired by Kaizo levels, or at least something that may inspire Kaizo levels. The name was also the only one I could find to be the most fitting.

Good luck. You'll really need it. >:)

Version 1.1: Removed things to reduce lag/loading time. It is still long, though...

I'm seeing the effort that has been made. Two flash player warnings for every death in a giant Kaizo styled level. Errm. Those two elements just don't work well together for me. Splitting it would have been a better solution. Except the fact that I'm not able to enjoy this level with a crappy computer as mine, it's looking good from what I saw.

I wish I could split it - and I tried to do that - but then it would no longer fit in the TTOFS category, PLUS it wouldn't really feel necessary anyway since it would mess up the difficulty, PLUS a couple features/elements would no longer be compatible (i.e FLUDDs and the starting point, Checkpoints; I would have to throw away the effort in making those images AND the difficulty without the Checkpoints would cause more frustration than help.).

Also, I am fully aware of those two things not going well together. I assume you haven't reached a Checkpoint because of slowness & crashing and the difficulty to begin with. I inserted Checkpoints to lessen the frustration from the colossal Kaizo-bomb of a level.


As a final note, I never wanted the loading time to be this long in the first place. Actually, I think that the loading time is mostly because of the myriad of decorations I placed. Looking back, it was probably too much, however I don't want the level to look bare, and this IS a very long level.

---

EDIT: Ooo. I have an idea. I might be able to improve the loading time some. I'll go ahead and remove a whole bunch of decorations that may seem useless. (In other words, A LOT.)

Well, at least the Flash Player doesn't crash for me now, but I still got a warning after having to restart a few times (just once so far). I felt that this wasn't all that bad once you get past the annoying loading times, and it wasn't a terribly difficult level even without F.L.U.D.D when you know what you're doing (though my experience at least), though there were a few frustrating moments, and the fact of how spread out the checkpoints were (at least there weren't too many, otherwise the difficulty factor of the level would dramatically decrease. One thing I should note is that some of the checkpoint landmarks were already suspicious to me, and so I automatically pressed down at some of the locations like the tree on the cliff before even knowing how the checkpoint system worked, so I just thought they were bonuses at first, until I saw the sign's image. Also, what's up with the pipes that lead you back to the beginning? Are they only meant to frustrate, or is there an actual use for them, because this level is incredibly linear in the first place and I don't see much of a purpose for them.

I made sure that there is always a way to backtrack. I felt like doing it for some reason.

For me, it's a very long loading time. The plugin may be unresponsive, serious, and it's soo hard.
I also liked the graphics. These are good, maybe excellent. I want to say you something down below:

- So many good graphics!

- I slide easy off the snow, so.

- The world don't be endless! But is long, loong, looooong...

- These are so many Power-Ups, how you use them?

- That snow left the lift in left is so small to jump on them without fall.
