1-1 100%

Intro Level

The intro level of Yoshi's Island is a short sequence of text boxes that can be advanced and then Start + Select can be used to exit the level. Switching to hasty is mandatory. Also see button mashing regarding all level intros.

1-1 100%

1-1 is widely accepted to be one of the more difficult levels, even though it is the first it features many mechanics that will be used for the rest of the run so get ready for some fun!

First Screen

First things first avoid all slopes, then we have the first flower of the game.

TODO:insert pic of flower

This flower will trigger a text box that needs to be advanced just like in the intro level.

Optimally you eat the Dayzee and do a neutral into the Piranha Plant as you can see in the tutorial video linked at the bottom of this page. Then you jump onto the yellow Shy Guy and do an extended flutter up to the left to the lower platform. Swallowing the Shy Guy during your reflutter is a good strat, but the Shy Guy must be swallowed. See Making Eggs for more info on swallowing enemies. Once you have reached the platform jump up to the second platform grab the Flower. After grabbing the [[Collectibles#Flower|Flower jump left and grab the Fly Guy trying to collect all Stars. Jump up to the second platform and grab all [[Collectibles#Red_Coins|Red Coins which are in the middle row of coins. Jump off the end of the platform as you see in the tutorial video and do a back tongue to grab the yellow Shy Guy. Then proceed under the Enemies#Piranha_Plant to the pipe while swallowing the enemy with a small jump.
