Man, I can't believe you haven't beaten that last ship. It's a little tough, but it's certainly doable. I'm sure if you save up all your powerups you could do it in enough tries.

I don't think I ever really used the cloud on much besides the last fortress in World 8. We had a guidebook back in the day and its directions for how to solve it made no sense, so we could never figure it out. I've long since found the path, though.

I love saving my P-ings for World 8. I've beaten every level at some point without a P-wing, although I don't know if I've gone fully through the game without using them. If you get them, why not use them?
