I really love the music and most of the sound in general, except for the bounce pads panned in stereo. Not a huge fan of that, as it is a rather bass-y sound. They are also always right by the player, so they should never be panned hard left or right. It works a lot better with the bombs and cannons as they actually can be outside of the screen when they make the sound, and it's a more mid-high end sound which doesn't feel as unbalanced.

I would personally like it more if the bounce pads didn't slow you down, I wanna go FAST.
This was a lot of fun, thank you!
