Part 12: Cloudrail Station Mess

Approaching the impending end, this course is also not my favorite in either version, not even the music elevates it for me, but this is a stage that also was infamous for having the Bzzaps, or the bee enemies from Paper Mario, but worry not, they are no longer in this hack, so rest assured this stage is more easier, exciting isn't it?

*Course 12: Cloudrail Station*
☆4 Don't Slide In The Frozen Cloud
(Original Name: The Frozen Cloud) The Bob-omb Buddy got relocated, before it used to be in a platform accessible in star 2, now it's just chilling on the railroad

☆3 Fluffy Castle Climb:
I hate this one, I prefer the OG over this one. Platforms feel placed mindlessly, the donut blocks are more picky, more challenging and the climb is rough. OG Used the red cap boxes, and if you read what I said in course 2, you know I don't like the change. as for the star itself, it's a bit more hard, the climb is stupid now but it's better than the platform ride right?!

☆2 The Giant Thwomp's Treasure:
Original Star Number: ☆5) This star is mostly the same with the difference of a platform added to get on top of the thwomps, needless to say, I'm not a fan of this, OG put your wallkicks to test and this just removes that but hey, it's easier. Star is mostly the same, get on top, climb poles, get the star

☆7 100 Coin star & ☆1 Swinging Through the Clouds
Since Bzzaps, the annoying bee enemies aren't a thing anymore the 100 coins and some other star became easier. As for star 1, it's the same as OG

☆5 The Outlook's Warp To The Cage:
(Original Name and Star: ☆2 Platform Ride to the Cage) So, this one removed the mindlesslyy slow ride to the cage, a neat change, but the structures being just squares while not out of place since the original ride had rectangles, feel odd, I like the walljump challenge even if it's just one vertical section, but that's it

☆6 Shoot To The Stormy Cloud
(Original Name: Airborne Red Coins) This is a new area since the red coins got the boot, and guess what, exactly, I'm not a fan of it. The constant wind kills it for me, the area is neat but god damn this blows. Yes, I hate this one, oh yeah and the camera got bugged, NEAT

*Windy Wing Cap Well*
☆Secret star: Windy Cap Well
(8 Red Coins)Just collect the red coins, in OG they were scattered through the place, now it's kinda confined? or at least got relocated to make them more accessible, like any red coin star in this version

*Course 9: Mad Musical Mess*
☆6 Find What Strums The Guitar:
(Original Name: To Strum the Guitar...) A star I left behind since it needed the Wing Cap, or maybe not, maybe in this version there's a warp or something for all I know, but if that is indeed the case, then no idea where it is. As is, I just used the old method

*So Far*
Man, this course was abysmal for me, some of the changes are ok but don't do it for me, but for a newcomer these may be good, all my rants are done because I know what OG does and what challenges they present, as bullshit as they are like in a later course I kinda hate, but we'll get to that when we get to that. The abscense of the Bee enemies are notorious, maybe I learned how to deal with them but man, I kinda miss these bastards. Next time, Lava course
