You might be asking: "WHYYYYYY?!"
While playing, I noticed several problems with the first version. First, you encounter the new "flying islands" mechanic and immediately risk losing a significant amount of progress. That sucks. So, I've adjusted the first part of the bridge to give you space to test, check out, and learn how the "flying islands" work in peace.
Another issue I noticed in both parts featuring "flying islands" is the practical lack of ladder use. What's the point of Ladder It Up if you don't need to use the ladder and you're moving downward?
Now, at the cost of an easier introduction, I've increased the difficulty in the second part of the bridge. Enjoy your [strike]suffering [/strike] climbing!
