guys i tried collecting 35 stars in every map in kkt with only the blueshell. the rules are simple. i have to be inside the shell at all times and i can only be outside of it when im getting a running start or if i have to enter a pipe or door. i have 5 minutes to complete each map. lets do this.
1. Grasslands. Impossible due to the pit in between the hard block stairs.
2. Bricks. Possible but very painful. this took me about 7 attempts to do. and on top of that. the hefty hazards werent helping at all, (except the bowser shell) but other than that it was possible
3. Fortress. Impossible. do i really have to say more? the lifts keep moving too slow and i dont have much time to wait
4. Pipes. Impossible. i was pretty lazy to do this map but as i was trying it for a while now i realized it wasnt possible due to the large pipe wall you can only get past by wall jumping. and i cant do that with the shell.
5. last but not least. Ice. and uhh. this is Definitely impossible due to the launching platform you must take to reach a star. and the problem with that is that when the player takes this platform. he gets forced out of his shell so... rip
Thats all the regular maps. lemme know if you want a part 2. (please note this series is divided by the category of every map so a specific part will be doing for example gimmick maps.
