well in SMW (super mario world) they are clearly marked, and i think it
is confusing for the fisrst time player wondering why the arent starting
at the beggining of a level, also making checkpoints an object of
somesort would mean you could make hidden ones or make the challenging
to reach rather than getting to a specific part in the level

well.... pretty good for what i understand is at level creators disposal.  things like moving platforms, more enemys, cannons/missiles (SMB3/SMW), levels 
that scroll automatically (ie tux has to keep up) and some more "powers" would make the levels more interesting
