You can also turn off the ninjis if you'd like, it's easier to practice that way.

I have to turn off ninjis because my eyes drift all over the screen if I don't. What's everyones best time so far? I'm currently at 20.413

19:941, which is still only good enough for #986th place.

I wish I knew a proper difficulty threshold that the most people would accept without calling something too easy or too hard. Making a level that I feel has enough features to be difficult, but fair but I'm good at 2D platformers and it's impossible for me to go in completely unbiased so I have no idea

Actual Mario games are usually a useful reference point, although bear in mind that a lot of players are bad and if you want >25% clear rate you're going to have to make it easier than the average Mario game.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I assume that there's no slowdown, since the runs are all downloaded beforehand? Or loaded up all at once? No slowdown at all, though I had a bit of a hard time distinguishing Toad from the massive army of Ninjis at the start of the level. But you can turn down the number of Ninji ghosts or turn them off altogether. ThisIsACoolGuy posted:I wish I knew a proper difficulty threshold that the most people would accept without calling something too easy or too hard. Skill levels and experience levels are going to vary, so there's never going to be a perfect difficulty for everyone. Just keep in mind that your own levels will always be easier for you than they are for everyone else, because you know exactly what's in the level and how it was meant to be cleared and you probably tried out most of the setpieces a few times as you were making it. When creators try to make a level that feels hard to themselves, they're almost always going to end up overshooting the difficulty because of that.

I really wish I could pick a direction for the spike balls to go on their own. As it is now they only go left unless you have them hit a spring

Got it down to 20.112 but the timings are really tricky on the slopes especially. I'm not sure if I'm losing speed on triple jumps or what, but this might be as far as I go. https://twitter.com/nofrikinfun/status/1202754682747097089?s=21

It's faster to run down steep slopes and slide on regular slopes.

Thanks for the slope speed tips for Ninji Runs! I'm sitting at 20.125, time to push that down? And here's my first post-patch effort, a little Zelda Dungeony thing: K1M-3QH-BSG - Great Goomber's Dungeon Use the master sword to get past the obstacles and defeat the evil great goomba! A pretty basic showing of some of the things you can do with the master sword power up. tonberi fucked around with this message at 03:28 on Dec 6, 2019 |

Hm- how can I force players into different pipes for a multiplayer level? Was playing around making a challenge level for my wife and her sister for this Christmas break and thought it might go up nicely as a full versus level. I’m messing around with a P-Switch above coins and blocks over the pipes but can’t quite wrap my head around it! Help a scrub level maker!

 Made a new level throughout the day. I think it came out nicely but I fully admit I second guessed myself alot on "am I making it too long, is it taking too much time?" etc. I really hope it came out well though

 I made a Zelda level called Ishto Soh Wetlands. It uses Link's mechanics to solve puzzles, and there are extra secrets and little challenges to complete to get 100 coins. There's also a hidden 1-Up. The ingame timer may work against you depending on your pace, but checkpoints are plentiful and it's pretty easy overall. The puzzles might get kind of tricky near the end, though.

When creators try to make a level that feels hard to themselves, they're almost always going to end up overshooting the difficulty because of that. This is definitely true, and I think that playtesting is important to adjusting difficulty. I usually make my levels easier as I playtest them. My usual philosophy is that if I (who knows all of the challenges) get hit at all, that part of the level is too hard, and I edit it to be easier. One bit of advice I heard for playtesting: play your level in multiple different ways, first playing normally, second tying to speedrun, and third without using the run button at all (except where absolutely necessary). This will help break you of normal habits so you can see your level in different ways. Players will appreciate power-ups and checkpoints, so be generous with that sort of thing. As far as clear percentages go, I think good ranges are 10-20% (somewhat challenging), 20-30% (normal fun level), and 30-40% (pretty easy).

I liked this one a lot. I think the length is fine, but I probably would have been annoyed if I died toward the end and had to redo the whole thing, so a checkpoint somewhere would have been nice (but it's not super important). Nice work! Live Free posted:
This was also fun. I didn't figure out how to get past the big plant at first, and even after seeing the POW block, I figured out that I could just run at the plant and slide at it with my shield, bumping it slightly. After doing that several times, I was past! Also, I've discovered that I really like using the bow. Give me enemies or switches that I can shoot with arrows (especially if I have to aim up or down) and I'll be happy. Both of these levels had good opportunities for using the bow.

Nice work! That puzzle accidentally turned out pretty cool. Had no idea you could bump it with the shield, and I also learned you can bounce the pow block off of your spike helmet to bring it closer to the enemy. You can also trick shot the POW block with the bow once it drops. I had no idea there were so many solutions for that one, but I'm totally cool with it

I see a bunch of people posting one specific time (or rather, just one time they're trying to beat). Aren't there multiple courses, each with their own record time? I haven't updated my game yet, but I'll be looking into it tonight.
