genuinely, probably one of the worst video games I've ever played in my life. the story and the aesthetics are cute but that isn't enough to save it from its middling gameplay, limited lives system that's entirely based on how many Yoshis there are, no real explanation for anything, frustrating platforming design, and the fact that if you wanted to try out a different level on the same section of the story you'd have to play the entire goddamn game again. borrowed this from a friend in community college and I still felt ripped off. don't waste your time on this and just go play Yoshi's Island instead
