Now that I think on it, the Banjo series does reuse level settings pretty regularly. There's jungle (Mumbo's Mountain, Mayahem Temple), pirate (Treasure Trove Cove, Jolly Roger's Lagoon), ice/snow (Freezeezy Peak, ice side of Hailfire Peaks, ice side of Freezing Furnace), port (Rusty Bucket Bay, Spiller's Harbor), factory (Grunty Industries, fire side of Freezing Furnace), and farm (Cliff Farm, Nutty Acres). I'm probably forgetting at least one more, especially if you count tracks from Banjo-Pilot.

So basically Hornet Hole? Yeah, I can dig that. The problem is that Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is an entire bee-themed game, so the honey/bee world would probably feel derivative.

To elaborate on my previous ideas... I'd like a space-themed world that's basically Future Fun Land from Diddy Kong Racing in Banjo world form. Something like Spaceport Alpha. Maybe it could be the first world, to get as far as possible from the standard-issue green hilly world. It could have something like a moon rover transformation to let you get into places without oxygen.

Hagfarts could be the Gothic castle world that was cut from Tooie, with the added fun twist that it was Grunty's alma mater. It could be divided into the castle itself, the surrounding spooky woods, and the lake. Grublins in Potter cosplay could be fun enemies here. It'd be fun to find stuff like Grunty's yearbook, where she was voted "Most likely to be beat up by a bear and bird."

The Chinese or Japanese world would be our requisite green hilly world. (It's too bad Wario Land already took the name "Bamboozle Village," because that'd be perfect). Think Mayahem Temple with an Asian twist.
