Super Mario Land 2's Wario's Castle -- Designing For Highlight

Designing For is a series which looks at a level in gaming, and analyzes a theme central to that level's design. In this episode, we look at Wario's Castle from Super Mario Land 2, a level which compliments the rest of the game and improves it just by existing.
