More interesting than anything but I found that it's possible to softlock the game by backtracking into a locked door. This prevents movement and Klonoa will be stuck even after resting the game/room or dying and can only be fixed by exiting the level. I've only found spots that work in Visions 3-1 and 3-2 as they have locks right on the edge of the screen that loop back around to the main pathway.

This is just for the sake of curiosity for anyone who's interested in responding.

I've always really enjoyed Jiobob (world 3), just something really pleasant and fun about it. But I've also taken quite a liking to 2-7 because it flows so well and 4-3 comes from a casual perspective of always liking this arrow based level. 5-3 has been and always will be "THAT" level to me but picking it up and thrashing it in a speed run feels so satisfying.

What are your opinions on this?
