It seems that with the new p-balloon power-up you can actually use the control stick to move in more than 8-directions as you would with the d-pad. https://twitter.com/SamFaustus/status/1252798206234071040?s=20

For those wondering: You can only have one "Super World" (aka. full game) of up to eight worlds uploaded at a time, and up to six downloaded to Worldbot (aka Coursebot for Super Worlds) EDIT: Powerups are not persistent between levels.

Personally I'd rather have the option to upload a lot of smaller worlds than one big one. Powerups not persisting through levels I guess is a consequence of being able to use multiple styles where powerups would conflict.

The last level of each overworld map must be attached to the "castle" object on the map. The level itself doesn't have to be castle themed (you can attach whatever level to the castle square you want) but the square does have to look like a castle which kinda limits thematic creativity. Forcing every world to be about Mario journeying to a castle is fine when Nintendo does it but user-created content should be about weirdness and going off the rails of "standard" Mario design. All it would take would be to give players the option to change the castle icon to any of the other icons available for the other levels.

Koopaling differences from experimenting with them. Larry is default. He jumps around a bit and shoots fireballs, shooting them faster as he takes hits. Giving him wings makes do big jumps. Iggy runs around back and forward making landing on him tricky, while shooting fireballs. His shell speed seems to be higher than the other koopalings. Giving him wings makes him short hop back and forth rather then run. Wendy shoots rings that bounce around while jumping adding more rings that last longer as she takes hits. Giving her wings makes her leap higher. Unlike Larry she tends to stay more or less in place with these jumps. Lemmy runs on his ball while launching balls that bounce you. He shoots more of them and faster as he takes damage. Giving him wings makes him bounce the ball he rides. Roy burrows and pops out either on the ground or on the roof of the area he is in. Creating a shock wave and shooting fireballs between burrowing. Giving him wings makes him jump out of his burrows and fake you out by not always coming out when he first appears Morton sends out fireballs that travel on the ground after doing a ground pound. Giving him wings causes him do to fake out ground pounds. Ludwig sends out three fireballs at once and flies around between shots on his last hit he sends out five at once. Giving him wings causes him to fly around shooting multiple bursts of fireballs

Looks like it but some of them use assets from 3. I hope Nintendo puts up their own super worlds. I’ve enjoyed the levels they’ve made very much and would like more.

I made my world, "Super Petrichor& World!" Okay, so it's not the best name in the world, but I really like the way it came together. It's a classic Super Mario Bros. 3 experience, with one world built from my existing levels, so give it a shot. I'd love any sort of feedback. I posted these levels in this thread a long while back, so you might see something familiar. Anyway, here's the code: 31J-H67-64G. Yeah, GreatGreen, it would be nice if the final level didn't have to be a castle icon, but that's fine. Getting to make a world is exactly what I wanted. I can't imagine someone making an 8 world game, though!

You can tell if someone has uploaded a world when looking at their Maker Profile, if there's a little blue square in the top left corner of their icon. I threw together a quick world with a single tough stage path or three easier stage path to the final challenge, you can find it at my maker ID! It uses the "Perfectly ____ Bridge" series of stages and a couple others that I have made before this update. 634-PNP-68G tonberi fucked around with this message at 07:39 on Apr 22, 2020 |

I made one more level trying to use all the masks. No sub area and pretty short, hope it's as fun to play as I thought it was when making it   Also put my Starlight levels together into a world. Gave the player the default 30 lives given people thought it was hard  .

I assume the Ninji's are ghost data from people that cleared your level - or how many players are in the level right now.

Amppelix posted:What do you want with it, a full flying level? That was clearly not its intended purpose and if it lasted that long you couldn't use it in lot of other ways where the flight limit is relevant. I do yes. I don't care about the second thing Alternatively let us choose the flight time. I would like less restrictions on the various course parts. I wish I could turn off the ability to turn the car around and turn off the invincibility too Macaluso fucked around with this message at 09:40 on Apr 22, 2020 |

If they didn't limit the flight the item will become OP and therefore useless to level creators who want some kind of challenge in their levels.

So, to sum it up, not that this is necessarily a complaint... The world maker functions like Endless mode, except: - you get to choose the levels - obviously not actually endless - no limit of 1-ups earned each level - optional bonus stages available to be included - can start with however many lives the world creator set Other than that, that's how it is, right? Again, this is kind of what I was hoping for, though being able to lock in a style to keep the player's status consistent or carry over items between levels would've been awesome. This is still pretty great!

Anyways, with this, I was thinking of finally trying to put together a Mario game of my dreams. The worlds would consist of three worlds themed around specific levels, 4 worlds themed around each of the 4 playable characters (mainly in the sense that you'd probably get the most out of it if you switched to that character) and the final world would be the difficult one and would be themed around Bowser.

I put quite a lot of time into it, and I'm pleased with how it turned out. I wish you could add a few sentences at the begining and end to give a bit more story, and it would be neat if you could pick a different person or item to get taken. (It's slightly disappointing how Peach always gets kidnapped.) Anyway, I'll definitely check out some levels and worlds from this thread this afternoon, so keep posting everyone! Rupert Buttermilk posted:So, to sum it up, not that this is necessarily a complaint... The world maker functions like Endless mode, except: Another benefit is that once you find a high-quality world, your can keep playing excellent levels without having to enter new codes. In endless, the quality fluctuates so much that it's harder to get into a good rhythm.

Course World is actually making it easier for me to design courses. When making individual levels, I always felt like I had to make each one a showpiece, demonstrating a clever gimmick or cute concept, so that players would feel like trying my other levels. But with Course World around, I actually feel comfortable designing simpler levels--whereas before, I'd spend days coming up with and working around a unique central idea, now I feel like I've been freed up to make levels that slowly ramp up and focus around much more basic constructs, eg: "what if... conveyor belts... and there are enemies on them?"
