Finally at 8-4 with five lives... watch me still lose :(
I can't do those stupid arc jumps
Edit: Game over, of course! Well, at least I've gained some much needed experience with levels 1-3. World 8 is easily the hardest world so far. Five hours and eighteen minutes of frustration later, I think I'm going to take a little break... fortunately I will be at World 8-1 when I return.
