Jump: Difference between revisions

While the standard jump (or '''Regular Jump''')<ref>Super NES Nintendo Player's Guide, page 15.</ref> remains mostly unchanged in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Mario is also now capable of [[Spin Jump|spin-jump]]ing. It trades height for offense, as it can break blocks (as [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]]) and destroy enemies that are usually more durable. It also allows Mario to bounce off certain enemies, notably those with spines, where he would usually take damage.

''Super Mario World'' is the debut of [[Yoshi]], a dinosaur-like creature Mario can ride. His jump is greater than Mario's, but it defeats enemies as quickly as the Spin Jump, and Yoshi even bounces on spiny enemies, too. While on Yoshi, Mario or Luigi can perform a '''Yoshi Boost'''<ref>''[[Mario Mania]]'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 43.</ref> (also named the '''Double Jump'''),<ref>Super NES Nintendo Player's Guide, pages 13 and 15.</ref> which gives him a second, higher jump off Yoshi. Doing so leaves Yoshi alone unless Mario or Luigi hops back onto him.
