New 100% Route
Updated 5 years ago by Uvideo

This route changes the world order a bit to cut out map movement and changes around some levels to be in a smarter and more convenient order meaning we don't have to go out of the way for power-ups as much. I have also included information about when you will be switching power-ups and grabbing coin blocks as well as some other tips. Enjoy!
