![]() ![]() In Episode 8 - The Watermelon Festival, you have to guide a gigantic watermelon down a cliff and along a beach past a horde of Cataquacks, who, if they get anywhere close, will knock the watermelon into the air, popping it.And when it turns sideways, good luck getting to a safe location in time. You not only have to collect 8 red coins, but you must do so on a moving bird made out of sand with flapping wings which, combined with the game's wonky physics, is very easy to fall off of. Episode 4 - The Sand Bird is Born, a notoriously difficult level even by the game's standards.However, said cage has some very odd collision, meaning if you ground pound just right on one of the corners, Mario clips through the corners of the cage, cheesing the whole rigamarole. If you thought you could just bypass the whole thing with the Rocket Nozzle, there's an Orange Juice Generator on top of the Shine's cage that has to be dissolved with Yoshi's juice. And if you fall off the platforms, you have to do that whole routine all over again. However even if you get one, heaven-forbid that there's a fruit in the way of the dispenser, or else the durian will bounce off of it into the lower platform behind it, out of Mario's reach, meaning that you have to repeat the cycle over again, making the simple act of hatching Yoshi alone a frustrating hair-pulling experience. The problem is that there is that you must climb on top and ground pound one of the buttons on top of the dispensers and there is a greater chance that you will get a completely different fruit instead, meaning it can take a long time to even get a durian if you're especially unlucky. The fruit machine does not yield Peppers). Worse yet, Yoshi will always require a durian to hatch in this level, and the only way to get one is from the fruit dispenser not far from his egg (the reason why this is the only time Yoshi asks for a Durian is because the Durian and Pepper are the fruits that make Yoshi purple, whose juice's platforms move horizontally. Also, this intended method often serves as a Guide Dang It! moment due to being completely arbitrary, unintuitive, and the necessary Yoshi abilities being useful only for this specific level. But since this is likely the first time players have made platforms with Yoshi juice, and the required coconuts are hard to find, the whole endeavor becomes much more challenging than it should be. Episode 8 - Yoshi's Fruit Adventure, where you have to squirt juice onto jumping fish to reach a series of platforms, is so frustrating that one online FAQ simply states, "I dunno, haven't finished this level." The secret to beating it is that Yoshi's juice after eating a durian will turn enemies into platforms that move sideways, but eating a coconut will make its juice turn enemies into platforms that move upward.The final stretch of the level involves navigating a field of platforms that flip periodically, requiring Mario to act quickly lest he fall into the abyss. One particular cryptic part of the level requires Mario to wall jump off a platform to the side not even a triple jump is enough to make it to the platform. A significant step up from the previous Hillside Cave Secret, entering this secret has said dirty lake obstructing the most obvious way in, with Mario either having to take the unhealthy lily pads that expire within a period of time, or jump as high as possible from the windmill. Episode 6 - The Secret of the Dirty Lake. ![]() The ones most likely to turn you into a Shell-Shocked Veteran are as follows: Thanks to Sequel Difficulty Spike, Super Mario Sunshine has enough of these to make getting 100% Completion the most infamous part of the game, turning an otherwise top-notch Mario experience into a complete nightmare.
