Clay Yoshi

Clay Yoshi (working title) is a title in the Yoshi Franchise, released on the Nintendo Switch.
==Story==
The Yoshis are relaxing on Plasticine Island when Kamek comes along and turns pieces of the landscape into lumps of Clay. He then takes the Clay and flies off, leaving Plasticine Island a barren and sad place to be. The Yoshis then set out to retrieve the Clay and restore their Island.
==Gameplay==
This game plays like the previous Yoshi games. Yoshi can run with the circle pad; jump and Flutter Jump with (A); lick up enemies and Spit them out with (B); throw Yoshi's Eggs/Poochy Pups with (Y); and duck, make Yoshi Eggs and Ground Pound with (ZR/ZL). However, like Yoshi's Story, Yoshi can also sniff anywhere with (X) and if Yoshi is near an object, a "!" will appear next to the Yoshi's head. Like Crafted World, Yoshi can freely aim the cursor anywhere on the screen. However, eggs are restricted to a 2D plane. 
Like Yoshi's Woolly World, Yoshi has a health meter that maxes out at 20. It can be replenished by eating fruit, though, each yoshi has a preferred friut that heals more than it normally would, like Yoshi's Story. These can be obtained by hitting certain Winged Clouds, or hitting Roulette Blocks at the right time. Reaching Checkpoint Bells can also heal Yoshies.
The game features two options for standard gameplay. The first is "Classic Mode", which is the standard gameplay similar to previous Yoshi platforming games. The second mode is "Mellow Mode". In this mode, Yoshi is Winged Yoshi and players can fly around freely, providing an easier experience. Players can switch between the two modes at any time via the pause menu.

==Items and Objects==
===Coins===
Blue Coins: Collectibles that appear when a blue ! switch is hit, and must all be collected within a time limit to make a Smiley Flower appear.
Coins: The most common items in the game. They can be collected normally when found floating in the air. However, there are other means of obtaining coins, such as hitting certain Winged Clouds or stealing them from Shy Guys and Fly Guys. Yoshi's Eggs will also drop coins when they hit an enemy after rebounding off a wall or a platform.
10-Coins: Large coins with Yoshi's face on them worth 10 normal coins each. Though they are rarer than regular gold coins, they are still somewhat common.
Red Coins: Collectibles that are commonly found among regular gold coins. There are twenty scattered throughout each stage, sometimes carried by enemies.
===Fruits===
Fruits: Restores health to Yoshis. While normally restores 3 hit points per fruit, eating a fruit that the Yoshi likes restores 5 health points. Melons also restores 5 health points regardless of Yoshi. 
- Apples (Green, Red), Oranges (Pink, Purple), Bananas (Yellow, Orange), Grapes (Blue, Light-Blue), Melons (all)
===Other===
! Switches: Makes Coins appear within a time limit. Can also trigger a change in the environment.
Blue ! Switches: Makes Blue Coins appear within a time limit and they must all be collected to make a Smiley Flower appear.
Checkpoint Flowers: The checkpoint mark of a level. Upon passing a Checkpoint Bell, part of Yoshi's lost energy is restored and any enemies present around the area turn into the Yoshi's favourite fruit.
Chomp Rocks: Yoshi can push Chomp Rocks forward or jump on top of them to roll them in any direction. He can use Chomp Rocks to crush most enemies, even otherwise-invulnerable foes, such as a Tap-Tap.
Coin Bags: Coin bags carried by certain Shy Guys and Pirate Guys. If hit, they will burst open and add ten coins to the player's tally.
Egg Blocks: Blocks that produce Yoshi's Eggs when hit from the bottom. They stop giving out any more when there are six present on-screen.
Keys: Items that can open locked doors.
Message Blocks: Smiling blocks which provide tips and hints.
Number Platforms: Platforms that can only be stood on for 
Smiley Flowers: Smiling flowers that are often hidden in levels, with the amount varying per level. They can be collected by simply touching them, but Yoshi can also toss an egg at them. 
Spring Balls: Round objects with an upward arrow imprinted on them. They can be used to jump super high.
Whirly Gates: When Yoshi enters a Whirly Gate, he transforms into one of the four power-ups in the game. The power-up he gets when he enters the door depends on the symbol above the door depicting a sketch of the power-up.
Watermelons: If Yoshi swallows the watermelon, Yoshi can spit up to 30 seeds. Ukikis have many watermelons, some half-eaten, which they use to spit seeds at Yoshi; if Yoshi grabs one of these, they will only give Yoshi 10 seeds to spit. The seeds have the same effect on enemies as an egg. 
Winged Clouds: Stationary objects that hover above the ground. They turn into an item or a formation of coins when hit with a Yoshi's Egg.
Yoshi's Eggs: Objects that Yoshi can throw at various elements. They are able to defeat enemies, topple backdrop objects, or trigger switches and other mechanisms to change the environment. If they rebound off a surface and hit an enemy afterwards, they produce three coins. In addition, they can be thrown at coins and Smiley Flowers to collect them. Red Eggs give a fruit to Yoshi when used to defeat an enemy and Yellow Eggs give three Coins. The items released from the Yoshi's Eggs are automatically collected upon spawning.
==Yoshi Transformations==
Yoshi Transformations can be triggered by entering a Whirly Gate. Each form has a limited time, and while clocks can be collected, the only way to exit the form is to make it to the ring at the end
Mole Yoshi: Yoshi can dig through the soil and bore through rocks.
Mermaid Yoshi: Yoshi can swim underwater and also jump higher and climb waterfalls. 
Penguin Yoshi: Yoshi can slide on snow and water, and can defeat any enemy they collide with.
Eagle Yoshi: Yoshi has the ability to fly and can also dash for extra speed.
