I had never made it passed the last underwater level before this competition started.

That is the way I go I didn't know about the exit at the upper left in the secret level until about my fourth time, I accidentally jumped into it and it took me to the next level.

I always jump up into a stupid fish, stupid squid or fall down on a stupid crab and lose like 5-8 lives on that world

I thought something like that happened. One time I had completed the same percentage of levels but was 100,000 below the score I had had previously as I sucked in the castle levels, I lost like 3 lives in a row by jumping into arrows. I will have to go slower in all the levels
