SMW Hack Tropes

Simple game. You list something that seems to be in EVERY (or atleast almost every) SMW hack. I'll give some examples.

- The first boss is always Iggy

- No hack is complete without a Ghost Ship level!

- Bowser has captured seven MacGuffins. To stop him from making everyone cry, you must rescue the MacGuffins and defeat him.

Have fun!
I have a hack thread - Link (Now with a demo!)
Also a music thread - Link

There is always a grassland world, unless the entire theme of the hack is something else. (ie: Buried Treasure is a desert themed hack)

Level 104 is almost NEVER changed...
-Almost every Kaizo hack as of late being Kaizo-light
-Decorations taking priority over fun design
-"vanilla" being a spectrum
-The first 7 worlds being a reasonable difficulty and then world 8 is like "holy crap, the end us supposed to be hard, and I forgot to put a difficulty curve! Here ya go!" Followed by a massive difficulty spike.
-Janky bosses
