A nifty game idea, i think..

Ok, bear with me, its early and i tried to post this three times yesterday with errors, so i forget like half of it. It sounded good then though.
Well its a game where you are Toad, it is a platform game with the levels similar to Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine. It starts with Waluigi sneaking in to Peach's castle to steal things, but he accidentally falls down a secret passage that hasn't been used for generations. Inside he finds a chests with Star-Gems (Little diamonds with stars inside). He goes back to his island(which is small with a small castle, and some goombas, koopas, shy guys, and other enemies walking around)and toad spots him walk out the door and one of the star gems falls out. On his island he opens it up and him and a goomba are looking inside when all the stars start glowing. Waluigi gives a couple to the goomba, and then takes the rest. He throws them together and makes a small dragon creature. Meanwhile toad is in mushroom kingdom, and he gets all Hero-y, and decides to go himself to fight Waluigi. He picks up the Star Gem and in a flash in jumps to life and says how the star gems are a powerful force that have been hidden because if they get in the wrong hands they are deadly. They grant special powers to anyone who uses them, and they need to be found. Toad originally can run really fast when he picks up speed, he can jump, and then flip in the air to jump twice as high. He starts with 2 heats that are his health, but he will find 3 Star-gems that grant him another heart each. He can do a Top-Stomp, where he flips in the air and lands extra hard on an enemy. He can also find large mushrooms on the island, where he can sit under to quickly fill up his health. There are also smaller mushrooms that are like health. Eventually he will get some more abilities by finding special Star Gems hidden on Waluigi's Island. When he does he will have a "Star Bar" that is depleted when he uses powers. He finds little "star-plants" around that slightly fill it up, or big "star-plants" that fill up half. On the 5th land, if you do some secret you will find a blue egg with blue baby yoshi, who can function like other yoshi's, eat things, stomp, and do the double jump. It's just a baby so toad fits fine, but it can't shoot eggs, and only eat smaller things, other things will take small damage from the tounge. There are 7 gates on the island, but only one can be opened. The others will open when Toad gets new powers, and the final castle will open when toad finds a certain number of star gems. That goomba that was given star gems goes around and gives some to different creatures who become the bosses, and then he uses one at a time to keep gaining new powers and is a Mini-boss in the levels. Toads new powers could be something like these:
1. "Mushroom Toss" He throws a Mushroom that automatically grows when using the power. It can be thrown to stun a small enemy, barely damage a large enemy, or solve certain puzzles. He can throw them on Yoshi.
2. "Mushroom Toss 2" He upgrades his mushrooms so that he can throw more at a time, and they do a little more damage.
3. "Fiery Toss" Whenever Toad finds fire, he can use this to take it and throw mushrooms that burn the enemy or whatever it hits.
4. "Healthy Shroom" This will set toad to have a small arrow over his head pointing to the closest Mushroom that can heal him.
5. "Little Buddy" This will allow you to find one health mushroom, and instead of healing you, it sprouts legs and will follow you around, with two hearts of power, it will jump in from of things fireing at you, or you can take control of it and go to places that toad couldnt even fit. This opens up more places in previous levels also, because you can fit in more areas. Once it dies another can be used.
6. "Jack-Hammer" When toad does his Top-Stomp he can do it 5 times in a row to open some switces and kill enemies easier.
7. "Slow-mo" This can only be used once a level. It will make everything slower exept toad for 4 seconds, allowing him to pass obstacles and things easier.
The goomba will be the boss in the first level, large and jumping around stomping. The other worlds he will be a mini boss.
Second world he can breathe fire. Third world he doesn't get tired, you have to kill him with mushrooms in his mouth when he pulls back to charge like a bull.
Fourth he stretches to a worm and will burrow in the ground, coming up to breathe fire when you use fire mushrooms on him.
Fifth he is really large and throws flaming rocks at you, you have to use your little buddy when he is tired to run inside of him quick, and then you will be in a screen with you as the little buddy fighting a heart that throws rocks, you have to keep hitting a switch in just the right plack to bounce the rocks back.
Sixth he will look like a normal goomba, but has all of your moves and special abilities, like a mirror enemy. The trick is using your little buddy, then letting it die and killing him as he possesses his little buddy.
Seventh he will be underwater, and you have to avoid until he starts shaking to put a star gem back inside, and then you throw a mushroom at his glowing tail, this repeats three times.
Eighth will be part of the final battle. He will go through each form, only being hit once, until finally you kill him and 8 Star Gems fly out to you and he jumps out the door.
The 7 worlds could even be traditional-like, with a water world, desert world, sky world, ect. They will each have 10 gems with missions to get them, and 5 secret gems.
1. Grassy normal world: There are goombas overwhelming here, and also a koopa or two. The Goomba will be the boss in this one, and he will come and grow large and run around trying to jump on you, and then stopping for air after three stomps.
Other levels could be Shy Guy Caves(Caves with all kinds of puzzles and stuff), Desert Land, Snow Land, The Evil Lake , Cludy Land, Dark Forest (With ghosts).
Then he finally gets to Waluigi's Castle, which is full of puzzles and enemies, each door requiring you to find the star gem in the area. Finally you get to Waluigi. At first he runs around throwing bombs until you hit him to 0 health, and then he run away and the goomba will come in its highest form, and you must fight it. Then Waluigi will come out riding his dragon, and you have to fight them, once you are done it will show the ending scene, and roll the credits. Afterwards it will ask if you want to play through again with all powers and a map to Yoshi from the begining, or if you want to play just before you fought Waluigi. If you say the second its just like it saved before you fought him and you can go back and get everything.
Also an idea is after 5, 20, 50, 75, 100, 130 a new mini game will open.
Wow, if you read all that, it was mostly babbling. Took me 20 minutes to type cause i am so tired...so tell me what you think.
