Cutsman really knocked it out of the park with that one, in terms of level design and difficulty balance.

Cherrim's Banana Bash is very challenging and fun, but the level designs tend to feel samey and bland sometimes (Infernal was amazing however)

Dyrude's Launch was extremely fun with amazing level designs, but that hack was TOO hard for me to do without savestates, so maybe a skill issue, but it's still a point deduction.

Scrap's 651 was fun and THE introduction to SMB ROM hacking, but World 10 bro... hell no

Nambo's Stardust, as cool as it was... I couldn't finish that one. Idk what f**king d*ugs Nambo was on while making that, but that hack was way too goddamn hard.

Gaiden however, has the best designed levels, a really dope choice of music (especially Master Extra 5-7's track), while having the levels very difficult, but not controller smashing levels of hard like Stardust was.

Idk, what do you guys think?
