@SudaiDelphi@GamesJam8216 in min mario we can’t get the hariet multimoon or knucklotec and lakitu only shows up once we beat knucklotec. but this actually is useful in min z, because interestingly lakitu can fish up moons from gp spots without pressing z
It was thought to be impossible for 8 years… but @GamesJam8216 just found a way to free Lakitu from the oasis! During the moon get animation, the leaf builds up momentum from Mario’s weight. Then it releases, we capture Lakitu, and the leaf scoops him up towards freedom!
Neat thing I found today which is pretty interesting. If you drain a bunch of water to make a gushen smaller, it's hitbox will extend slightly further, enough to get these purple coins through the wall here. This saves a reasonable amount for quite a few categories :)
The core gameplay mechanic of Donkey Kong Bananza came from a technical experiment of taking the arms from a Super Mario Odyssey Boss and putting them on a Goomba to smash the terrain!
