Red Coins on the Floating Isle: Difference between revisions

This star can be collected in 0 A presses and in real time. Most of the coins can be pretty easily collected without using A. The bomps are low enough to be traversed with a dive recover. The main challenge is getting to the floating islands. Mario lures a whomp towards the checkered elevators, and makes it faceplant. He then climbs on top of it, and as it recovers, Mario traverses to the new top of the whomp. He then slide-kicks to the elevator.  At the top, Mario can reach the floating islands with a well-timed dive recover. He can then get the red coin above the thwomp by dropping down and performing a dive.
