World 1-5 is going to be called Mossy Mash. It takes place in a partially flooded cave with waterfalls and moving water that can push you around.
This stage taught me a great deal about what you can do and can't do with water. I want Mario to only be able to jump out about 1.5 block above water when he is swimming. I have to really pay attention to how high I place the dry platforms he can land on.
Look at the start. Is there a cove to the left you can swim in?

You can find the green gem if you can climb up the waterfall.

Duck your head down and let the waterfall push you to get the red gem in the treasure box.

Smack as many Cheep-Cheeps with the Invincible Star to get some extra lives.

The bonus area has some tidal waves that can push you around.
