More random acts: Red Coins in the Desert Yyyyeah I'm not going to be able to pull that turtle shell one off. The piranha plant room was fun as hell, the two buzzy rooms were ok if you're into that sort of thing. Porcupuffer Pond Really great level. Pacing was really nice, overall a very Nintendo quality level. Rote Wurst I liked this a lot. A lot of the difficulty was crammed into the one room, but it was a really cool concept and the rest of the level was fun. 1-1 but Mario needs to poop Goofy level, it was entertaining. Flagrant Disregard for Gravity I really did not enjoy the gimmick but it was superbly executed, pretty good level overall. Five in the Sky Short but good. Fun ideas, not too difficult but kept me on my toes. Would like to see a little more. Ice Infestation I liked a lot of the concepts, the fish dodging trap room was great and the Bowser Jr fight was interesting. The platforming with the narrow ice spires was really obnoxious for how far it was from a checkpoint though. I eventually just gave up on this one. Abe01 A fun beginner level. Lots of room to explore, which is a good way to make a basic easy level like this more interesting than more linear ones. 2-3 Air Lair Flurries aren't my favorite element but they're used very well here, very nice level. It's easy enough that they don't get too annoying. The Climb Interesting and charming level. The enemy-less gimmick isn't entirely to my taste but it's well done overall. Aerospace Antics Neat level, but a real slog. Some of the beetle rides off the springs are kind of finicky. I thought it was fun but man I wouldn't want to go through that whole thing again. Frozen Fortress Very charming level. The slipperiness made it just a little bit tricky but still would have liked to see a little bit more challenge. Fun for a nice easy short level though

More random stages! Slopes 'n' Slides Y7M-V61-YGF By: No. 1 Callie Fan Straightforward and not to difficult. So straightforward it's hard to find anything to say about it. Do something outrageously wrong next time so I have something to talk about. Repeating Riches K5P-J5T-RHG By: SamFaust Ended lap with 299 coins. Currently devising revenge strategy. 1-4 Freezy & Breezy CXS-P0T-BRF By: Pixeltendo Easy peasy. Good use of the icicles throughout. Cloud Paradise B15-NHP-2KG By: Movie majick The first response of any player to seeing Lakitu should be, "Let me jack that cloud and see how far I can get." Answer: just short of the goal tape. Light Switch Slam 06D-H4B-SFG By: Main Paineframe I somehow missed this jam level when I went through all of them before. Oh well. Nifty level with a fun use of the superball. Pretty dark, though. Beyond Thunderdune H2L-HP8-QQF By: Chronojam Right now, before I start playing. If there is not both Master and Blaster in this level it's an auto-boo. [after playing]  Origins 20S-5H6-NWG By: The Kins Good basic stage.

Straight White Shark posted:Frozen Fortress Thanks for your review! I wasn't really going for anything super tricky with this one, I wanted a level the kids could play in Endless and feel proud they beat but wasn't too tough. My inspiration was actually the Disney song Let It Go so it's definitely one for the kiddos. Glad it's hitting that mark.

Spiffster posted: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 It took me entirely too long to realize the coins were placed where you need to let go and when to jump. I did have the thwomps at the end screw up one time but not hitting switches correctly when I might have had it, but otherwise everything worked. NofrikinfuN posted:Is a standalone boss fight an acceptable One of my levels for MM1 was an autoscroller level where Bowser was on a tram with no powerups and you just had to survive until the end, with mild changeups in his routine. But also I think Meowser is kind of poo poo because he just fucks off into the back or foreground randomly and loves to just pop up right where you are and shoot off a fireball before you can actually do anything about it so I think his routine is just bad.

What's the best way to get a Koopa or Buzzy Beetle to immediately start spinning as a shell? I'm trying to create a level like SMW's "Awesome", which has a lot of kicked shells in it, but can't find a good way to do it.

The coin thing I figured out about 20 minutes in and that did help me get to the part I’m still suffering with but even though I’m pretty good with audio cues and timing I still kept getting clipped by the beetles when jumping. Like I know what needs to be done but I just can’t seem to get it right. As for my next stage I’m Going to use the stage randomizer tonight to see if that gets some creative juices flowing. Also saw that people have beaten and rated Trials and Incantations Redux and I’m so happy that my changes seem to have made it better. I didn’t want to be cheap on it and just wanted a solid challenge. Would love feedback if any Goons happened to have played either or both.

DorianGravy posted:A few thoughts: Yeah, after seeing other people play it I see that the first ant room is way harder when you haven't tested it a million times. I think the difficulty ramp is also borked. Too easy in the beginning and too hard at the end. If the game would let me, I would have it be several self contained wall jumping puzzles with a checkpoint between each. Oh well, back to the lab!

I love Kaizos but I am bad at most of them, so I made a short Kaizo lite that tries to emulate the feel of those levels but that even I can beat (and you can too!). I focused on making it fun to try for WRs - no waiting sections, possibility for small but tricky optimizations - while still being a fair and fun challenge played normally. I was going for a medium difficulty sweet spot, so let me know if you find it too easy or too hard. Also, as the description says, can you get the hidden 30 and 50 coins? Monkey Gone to Heaven GR5-HFX-RVF I am bad at naming things, so I'm probably just going to name all my levels after unrelated songs from now on.

Is there any way to measure your own time beating one of your levels? I don't want to be the official world record holder for my levels, but I'm curious if I can beat other people's times, or if they're better than me at my own level. If I play my own levels in course world, it doesn't give me a time at the end.

New level: High-Flying Havoc D8B-K3K-R7G Airship level (not autoscrolling). I've had some feedback that my previous levels actually weren't hard enough, so I tried to take that to heart, but I hope I haven't gone too far the other way. There can be a lot of projectiles in the air, but you can take it slow to make it safer. There are a ton of secrets in this level and an optional miniboss, and multiple shortcuts for speedrunners. guppy fucked around with this message at 02:06 on Jul 8, 2019 |

Made a level designed for versus multiplayer. RACE: Alpine Pipeline: 8X9-YJY-8PF     At least, its supposed to be meant for multiplayer. Not a terrible hard level you're meant to run through as quickly as you can. You can still play it alone but it'll be really easy if you don't try to go fast.

I didnt think I'd get into the maker mode as much as I did, but it's super fun. Here's my first try: DXN-FKK-TTG. I mainly wanted to focus on two obstacle types and used what could be done with them. By the end it wound up having kind of a strong theme too. There's an extra segment at the end if you can make it through with a mushroom!

Thanks! No, it wasn't intentional, and I'm interested to know how you did it. I took some pains to prevent it; I realized during testing you could pop back up the entry pipe to the miniboss area, so I put a one-way block in front of the entry pipe so you'd have to leave via the other pipe, which I thought meant killing the boss for the key and going through the locked door. How did you manage it? (EDIT: Originally I had put the pipe up high to prevent it, but since there's a Leaf in the room, you could run back and forth to get up the momentum to fly back up, hence the one-way block. I'm guessing you were able to fly in from the side? guppy fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Jul 8, 2019 |

Magma Momentum Killer 8V8-CH3-2GG After being extremely sick and unable to play since the game came out, I’ve finally been able to finish my first real level. It’s pretty simple, playing off the rising and falling lava mechanic. There are a few big gently caress you moments, but is otherwise pretty easy. You just need to make sure you don’t miss anything.....

Still took me a while because I am bad at the leaf! There are a few ways to prevent re-entering up-facing and sideways pipes, but with the leaf a one-way doesn't block re-entry in down-facing ones.

Reviewing some random goon levels: Something Awful MD2-HB6-B3G  Pipe Up (Re-Up) 85K-34R-7MF I liked it! Lots of fun vertical ascent, looked very nice visually. The last bit at the end with the spineys on platforms felt like a bit of a difficulty spike, but I didn't actually die to it so  0-4 99F-LKK-FDG Short, but it felt like something you could find in the NSMB games. The bonus coins were well placed. The Perilous Vine Skyway 7LS-F1Q-6BG This was a cool autoscroller. Nice touch using the switches to let the player start when they're ready Snow cliffs hide a dark secret 889-8M1-0JG It seems strange to make the majority of the level optional. Clearing the level without unlocking the door is completely trivial, to the point where I imagine the majority of players in endless won't ever bother. I was also confused by the area near the top of the screen with munchers and an ice wall. It seemed like just a trap with no reward for players who fly with the cape or climb up the vine. I guess there could have been an invisible block with a 1-up or something? My Buddy Bill QRR-R2Y-DRG If you enter the door fast enough you can leave before bill dies. I demand an alternate ending accounting for this. More seriously, it's a cool concept that I think could probable be fleshed out into a full level instead of a short auto-mario thing. The Ants Go Marching JUN-JN6-4NF The concept's not terrible, but I think the execution needs work. I ended up giving up when there was a couple troopers with spike helmets on ice blocks that I couldn't hurt after losing my powerup, but the entire big room felt very aimless. I also think you should add some leeway to the goal - having to kill all of the troopers means it's possible to, say, kill 49 of them and then realize that one ant in the first room climbed off the top of the wall before you could kill him. Airship Rumble PK6-XLJ-4BG This was fun, and it looked great visually. It could probably use a little more signposting though, I only realized I was supposed to go down the pipe moles were coming out of because of a comment, for example. Adding some coins to indicate where you can jump down to an airship offscreen would be nice. Also, after killing Jr and getting the key and clown car, I flew up the path through the roof and went through a locked door, which led to... a dead end with a pipe giving powerups. It looked like I could have come into that room from below, so I guess it was a different route to Jr and I wasted my key backtracking?
