That's the ticket! Thanks!
One of the story mode levels does that. It fires out a shell that bounces between two switches linked to a vertical wall you need for wall-jumping.

I love cheating in the story mode. Each level you beat with cheats is marked as beaten by Luigi.

Is there a way to immobilise a koopa car? I can't spawn an empty one, and the enemy tends to drive around and crash. Locking one between two springs is noisy.

I've just had an easy level that was just a long pool from start to finish.
I died.
I wasn't really expecting the pool to be one-tile deep.

Wow, the next one was a neat 2D demake of a level in SML 3D: PRW-P05-VSF

Going from Easy to Normal in Endless is switching from mostly inoffensive levels with an occasional tricky secret to single-block leaps over bottomless pits while under fire. In 15 lives burned I'm yet to finish a single normal course.

Yes, but Cat Mario.

One thing that the Normal Endless pain has taught me is that at a certain range Cat Mario swoop is interrupted by tornadoes.

Just to check, when people go into course maker for the first time is there already a level generated? I never played the first and went in to find an smb3 airship level which was exactly the type of level I wanted to make and pretty decent on its own.
It's the level that loads as the title screen when you start the game. There are a few of them and the can all be played.

Mine was, but no one has noticed.*
Builder Mario summons boxes out of his rear end, but most people only remember about the hammer.


I'm making a Skipsqueak level, since they are adorable, and I'm learning all sorts of things. Most items drop through them, except for wooden boxes, and the boxes in turn can support powerups on top of them. So, you can make a thing that pushes out an item whenever the player jumps, which could be used for optional no-jump challenges.

It's ve-e-ery limited.
But I've discovered that you can send squeaks on really long trips by springing them off their start spot, forcing them to jump and then placing a glass pipe there so that they jump into it and set off on a wild pathfinding adventure. Winged ones also fly.

Hey so this is my final level for a bit. A goon asked for water levels and I hope to deliver a bit late. You'll be both above water and below it in the Porcupuffer Pond




I'd like some thoughts as I'm not quite used to making water levels myself and hoping I did alright :shobon: It's pretty straight forward and there's a goofy little extra path at the end if you feel like hanging around.
The water parts are just right. I died exclusively to goombas.

Lots of kickstarter money, elaborate trailers, dire actual space combat, ground maps with ramps that kill people more than enemies, attempts to add extra stuff like trains. Oh, and someone short tempered is trying to have a movie career in the secret room.

Oh, and there's a dick in the comments, so it's perfect.

I beat it because the death didn't trigger immediately after goomba's dying at some point, and then I waited the P-switch out on a shroom around the area where the huge Mario powerups start dropping. The rear P never triggered.

Whenever I go into "normal" I get invisible blocks over pits, or jumping across single spread-out note platforms over pits, or claws over pits, or a single-jump level where your trajectory has to go perfectly between saws.
