Okay, design ideas, just gonna throw some out there:

Starting out similarly to Bonefin galaxy, or a feel similar to Bonefin. A large, spherical planet with a huge underwater volcano at the top. You start out at the bottom of the planet, and make your way to the top where the volcano is whilst avoiding little mini volcanos on the sides.

- Swimming INTO an underwater volcano. So, volcanos underwater, cool. You know what else would be cool? Going INSIDE one! I researched the topic and I've found no results on what the inside of an underwater volcano looks like, so we can really go wild here. That said, it's probably just like a regular volcano. Who cares though? We could have lava spiraling around the sides, which you need to make sure not to bump into.

- Fire flying between parts of the inside of the volcano. (The volcano will start with a long swim down, much like deep dark)

- A 2D area where you need to navigate between firebars and maybe some poodaboos.

- At the very bottom of the volcano (which you'll only enter in the first mission), there will be Magmaarghs you need to avoid. There could be lil' cinders as well, lots of fire enemies would be fun to try to deal with underwater.

This is kind of hard to bullet point, because I'm thinking more as a grand scale level. Think of it like deep dark.

You start out by flying onto a rocky platform at the base of a giant planet, like so:



Then you work your way up to the volcano at the top. I'll add some more ideas later.
