J-Spot posted:It's perfectly fine. The descent section was well put together. I'd keep it up unless you run out of room. Yeah, the 32 limit has me bugged because I have a few courses I already know I want to make or play with and I've already made like, 22 or so. Still, guess I'll keep it around. I don't hate it but I'm just nervous others would as Night Sky seems to be the least popular next to underground. Cactrot posted:I think I'm using too many Thwomps

Made another one with some enemy limit shenanigans. All is fine until you hit the P switch... Cursed P Switch in the Woods S6X-6GD-SVF I expect this to be kind of tricky. Here's a hint. Disarm the note blocks by hitting them all first before the P switch.

DorianGravy posted:Hmm, pretty good (and challenging). I like airship levels a lot, and I liked the branching paths towards the beginning of this level. Still, it had a few aspects that held it back from being better: Thanks! Both my levels involve experimenting various and open-ended ways to do Bowser fights and was hoping with the airship that by placing Bowser Jr on the bricks at the end that people would just go for either the goal or the P switch. I wanted to use multiple Boom Booms to encourage exploration of the chamber, both for the power-ups and for the upper ledge but I probably should have removed the pit and just done two. The extra checkpoint is really just for flavor, but I put in a hidden shortcut to bypass both the Boom Boom and Bowser fights that is visible from the snake block. I died on the snake block in testing as well so I'll probably make the block longer to give more room for error and reupload.

Came out of SA retirement to steal some codes from this thread and post mine: Sabotage Jr’s Rocket 1.1 JDH-TGP-K8G It’s a pretty big vertical level (OG Mario airship). It took forever and I’m worried it’s a bit long and uneven, but I wanted to give back to one of these threads and I couldn’t keep tweaking it anymore. Edited with new code and no place to get stuck that I definitely should have caught!! Princeps32 fucked around with this message at 22:04 on Jul 7, 2019 |

END CHEMTRAILS NOW posted:Good level. A few tricky jumps for the bonus coins, but pretty easy to just beat the level. Nice job. Thanks! I was intending something that's simple for Endless but if you want to explore a bit you're rewarded. My original "basic" Mario level was a bit barebones.

Played some Random Acts of Mario. Air Power Lives up to the short and sweet tag. I liked it a lot for what's there, definitely would have benefited from being expanded into a longer level. Dr. Mario in the Whale  I liked the theme but the intro is way too long for how annoying and finicky the donut bumper section is. Slings & Things The claw section was really frustrating, but since it's the only real challenge and not very lethal it works out. Good level, loved the concept. Freezy-Scorchy Land Fun gimmick, love the aesthetics. Difficulty is a bit uneven but at least the hard part is right after the checkpoint. One of the better levels I've seen overall. Crossing Skullstone Canyon  Fantastic level! Looks cool, challenge level is good. Kind of sprawling, felt more like a Yoshi's Island level than SMB proper but there ain't a thing wrong with that. Ran a little bit long maybe but it's good enough that I'm not really complaining.The Sinking Sky Continent I really wanted to like this level but it's just not my cup of tea. The gimmick is extremely cool but it doesn't seem to do a lot with it beyond a lot of precision jumping. I can appreciate that it probably does what it sets out to but it's not for me. Bully Bluffs Pretty nice level. I got burned by seeing some coins and dropping down directly into a spike block, but it's a pretty easy level overall so it wasn't a huge deal. Fun gimmick, executed well, doesn't overstay it's welcome.

It may be my psychosis talking, but it feels like Nintendo has tweaked the level selection for the endless mode. I'm actually getting playable levels now in expert. Not easy, not free, but playable. I'm at 16 lives with six levels cleared at the moment. Fake edit: 17 lives and seven cleared. And that was because the last guy didn't put any coins or 1-ups in his stage.

potatocubed posted:Hi, I've never made a Mario level before so this might be garbage. This level was super well done in my books. - You gave the player a mechanic and escalated it. - You didn't hide any traps that players couldn't react to. - Players can put in more effort for a higher score. The level didn't overstay its welcome. I just want to throw this out there even though I know it's been said. If you think your level is crap, but it's done  . You'll only find out what it people think if you get it out there. First levels can be awful and that can be half the fun for some people. Put something you like together, get some feedback, and get back to it afterwards. The only truly awful Mario levels are the ones nobody gets to play. Even enemy spam levels can be fun or at least funny.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:You've inspired me to make an enemy-free zone, and just have general hazards throughout. Thanks! Welcome.  I heard one tactic on making a good level is to make it more about the platforming than the enemies, even though mine isn’t a good example of that.

I've made 3 Marios now. That might be a world record? The Cursèd Armada is about some boats that have more ghosts and fire bars than safety regulations recommend! If anyone has feedback on the difficulty in particular I'd appreciate it. This was my first time trying to make a more challenging level - it should hopefully flow well (and I did test to make sure the firebar timing works out if you're speedrunning) but I know it's hard to judge your own course's difficulty.

I played some of the levels in this thread at random so heres what I think!!!!!!! Shoes in the Sky DNJ-HVM-SHF This one is pretty good, the only problem is you have too many enemies and I don't really think you need that many. For example, the room with Boom Boom doesn't need the fire spitting piranha plant because boom boom + the fire bars are already tricky. Turtle Wax On, Turtle Wax Off SXK-CDC-YKG This one is nice. You had an idea and you made it progressively more difficult over the level. Solid. Burning Lava Fish XDG-D5Q-QQF I almost gave up in in the room after the first checkpoint room. Cheep cheeps are annoying on their own but having to avoid a never ending stream of flaming cheep cheeps while trying to do jumps over a lava pit and being careful not to jump too high and lose progress but also make it to the door in time was a real bear. I made it through though and then almost quit on the Bowser Jr fight. Having to contend with him, bombs, more flaming cheep cheeps, spikes, and a lava pit was just too much. I did end up beating it though. You had an idea through the whole stage but it was just too spicy for me. Torment Beyond the Grave VH8-6NT-07G Made me cry 10/10

Got a new stage maustrials No.2 Q94-RYR-4YF Puzzle oriented, multiplayer friendly, probably 4-star difficulty if you're a completionist Has an optional section where you get to fight basically every enemy in a gauntlet of challenges at the very end, or a mini-kaizo speedrun shortcut  Accidentally deleted my first stage locally, trying to remove it from Courseworld to make some changes 😔 Spellman fucked around with this message at 00:44 on Jul 8, 2019 |

Phantasium posted:i've got choice words for spectral werewolf I tried for an hour on that level and couldn’t get past the drat second buzzy beetle bit. Everything felt fair until that part because the timing felt like it changed on me. Like if I was a frame or two off I was gonna get killed. and that lower path man... rude I will try it again when I’m in a better place. It’s a great design but that one part just feels over infuriating

This game made me buy a capacitive stylus. I still miss the old WiiU screen, the stylus there just seemed so much easier to use and more reliable. I know capacitive can do multi-touch but I've never once needed multi-touch on a switch game. Gotta get on downloading goon levels now that I've got my bearings in the game.

And I had to make a course using clear conditions. So I did all of those things. Please enjoy Super Mario Maker 2's only course based on the contours of my teeth, Fight Plaque! 6F8-86M-8SG

I think the terrain I laid out makes it interesting, but I know I have pretty unusual tastes and not everyone digs the things I do. I feel like pro players might find it boring and new players impenetrable, but I've played several rounds and it still feels good to me.
