If it's not a way to link level codes online throw it in the loving trash. If this multiplayer thing ends up taking precedence, throw it in the trash, I don't care, I'm tired of typing codes.

I dont think there will be a new endless mode. New courses were the most obvious candidate for that but the queue is caught up now. Itll probably be a bunch of bug fixes, multiplayer, and maybe a couple new items. Im guessing a few months down the line theyll have another style (probably mario 2)

If they go the SMB2 route it'd be cool to see 3D World (or all of the themes I guess) get Luigi/Toad/Peach/Rosalina with their different abilities like in the actual game

I was planning to sit out the jam this week since I already have one "for kids" level and I didn't want to repeat myself, but I may have just been struck by the strangest source of inspiration imaginable. Now to figure out how to pull it off.Rupert Buttermilk posted:Anyone want to theorize as to when the first update will happen, and what will be included? Online multiplayer with friends, obviously, but beyond that...?? The first update will probably be pretty small. Maybe some QoL things like the long-awaited "Restart From Checkpoint" option.

i really want the ability to make your own level playlists. just give me the ability to punch in a bunch of codes at once, and get all the levels at once edit: i can definitely see greatest game of all time SM2 being a new "game style" and probably a 2D version of mario odyssey too. maybe more maker costumes, probably peach as a playable character at some point. alf_pogs fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Jul 15, 2019 |

Tubular Traversal A 3D World level, mostly focusing on ! blocks, glass pipes, and long jumps. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, I think it has a nice flow. It also has one (non-lethal) mean trick that I found way too hilarious to take out.

My last level is up to 15 plays but still only the four goon likes, so I guess it was a dud after all.

At long last I have made another level and it stars the ghostess hostess with the mostess BOOETTE Booettes Bougie Bungalow C1W-P2K-JWF My previous course Legend of the Big Coin ended up in the popular tab for a bit and had a minor blow up so I wanted to try and top it. I'm not sure if I did, but I do know that this here level is the longest I've spent on a single Mario level. I would make a bunch of stuff, delete most of it, make more, go to bed, get home from work and then delete most of it again and make all new stuff. It ended up entirely differently than my original plan but these things happen. I hope you all like dark ghost houses. Overbite fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Jul 15, 2019 |

NofrikinfuN posted:My last level is up to 15 plays but still only the four goon likes, so I guess it was a dud after all. I just played it. It's extremely clever and one of the best of this type of level I've seen, but it has the same problem that plagues many puzzle levels: it has things that can kill you and these puzzles are fun to solve exactly once before it becomes tedious to make it back to where you were. If I were doing this in endless I'd probably skip it after getting crushed by a thwomp. The other problem is your average endless player may not be particularly keen on playing puzzle levels, so you kind of have to find your own audience.

I died a couple times because I got crushed and the final puzzle took me a few attempts because I couldn't see what the final blue snake blocks were doing so I would end up messing it all up and having to start over. I liked how the puzzles escalated in complexity but it was kind of long too. You could have removed the parts where you just run and crush the small thwomps to make it a bit shorter. Overall I liked it though!

Showed Forest of Fury to a Twitch streamer and they were making fun of me that it was "too easy to cheese" because they were using one of the Fire Flowers to kill Boom-Boom. They didn't even find the POW Block in the question block. I explained that it was for kids before they started playing but I guess any power-ups whatsoever is "cheese." That word, I do not think it means what you think it means.

Thanks for the feedback all. I suppose thwomps are a tad too lethal for puzzles, that's true. I actually added the thwomp hallway sections to break up the puzzle sections, did they end up detracting from the level overall? As for the final puzzle, I agree it went a bit sideways. The main issue was that I wanted it to go one of two ways depending on when you activated an element, but not being able to overlap paths meant pathing them around each other. Maybe more on/off switch hijinks would have been preferable?

Mario Won A Cruise! KDH-HM4-JMG Simple puzzle solving to get the red coins followed by a boss fight, it's a bit of a long level but I think it's pretty straight forward. It's not my "for kids" level because it's probably too hard for that and I started work on it before that was announced. Shouldn't be too difficult for someone experienced in SMW, but I'm also a terrible judge of difficulty.

These are actually the reason I kept it at four puzzles in the sublevel. I definitely saw the necessity since thwomps crack like eggs if they are being pushed around. Also thanks for the comments J-Spot and Overbite.

No, it was somebody who had like ~25 viewers and only about eight or nine levels in their queue, I know to hit up smaller streamers for the most part because getting seen on a larger channel is a crapshoot. But most of the levels she was being handed apart from mine were Kaizo (and garbage). I think that's just what people expect to see on a Twitch stream.

The end was a bit hectic, but I managed to get by with the flower. I do think I did the last coin wrong, though: I wasn't sure what to do, so I beat up a goomba and tossed him up there to get the coin. I never bothered with the springs.

Theres a lot of kaizo trash in streams and I think theyre just used to it at this point because a good chunk of their viewers are kids who want to troll people. e: another good thing to remember though is that people will optimize the fun out of any game. If theres a way to do something safer but unfun, players will do it.

Jam review of Slidetide Pools, guestwritten by Daughter Cedricson, age 5. "This is a hard one. Why don't you try this part? *is told 'no, this is a kid's level* Maybe we should let Mommy try." "I don't understand how slide jumps work." *Has it explained and demonstrated* Oh okay. *Takes a leap from the very top of the hill* I like to do it MY way." "I like the room with the pipes. It is nice except for I never got to the pipe that 3 and 0 coin in there. [sic]" "Can we play my level?" Haschelnote: I thought this was a great level. I am so sorry.

12G-16K-QHF - That belongs in a museum! Indiana Jones themed short level. Grab the idol and runaway from the "boulder." I had to fake the boulder with a sideways Thwomp, and my trap for activating it mean you can actually get away from it before it chases if you're fast enough. The other thing I tried was Big Mole in a narrow corridor, but felt weird and too many chances to just boop it. I also originally had Yoshi included as the "whip" but there's no way to apply Yoshi-Whip in that scene really.

Still, you can make nice looking courses if you get creative. Experimenting with stuff that doesn't affect gameplay but changes the look of the course helps a lot. Its really cool that naked pipes in 3D world are actual platforms though.
