Topic: Super Mario Maker - OT

@99mushrooms: I played your One-Screen level and need 10 minutes to solve it. To be honest: I didn't know if I try it right until the end You can watch my video here.

@mrichston: This a great puzzle level! I didn't solve it, yet. But I will try again later and tell you about it

Thanks for the play and video, I will watch it as soon as I get home. That was originally the first jump in my level "the dangers of shell jumping 2" but it was harder than most of the other jumps in the level so I decided to make it it's own mini level. I am going to continue the series with a single jump challenge as a .5 between each full level.

The first couple times that I saw more than one checkpoint I thought I imagined it but I know there are levels with mutiple checkpoints now. Yet when I make a level I can only add one. Am I missing something? Or am I just crazy in thinking I have seen more than one in a level?

I played a few levels here. Good stuff from the following:

I thought you can add two check points for quite a while. Then yesterday I noticed this is further restricted: You can add ONE checkpoint in the overworld and ONE checkpoint in the underworld. Only in that case you can have two checkpoints.

@Chandlero: ah, got it. I didn't pay attention to where they where just knew I had seen more than 1. Thanks!

@DreamyViridi: Thanks for playing my newest level. In return for your services, I played an old level of yours
It was very funny but I died a few times since I didn't pay enough attention. Normally, I am not a fan of auto scrollers but this one was very good! The platforms had the right speed and falling time and it was never unfair in spite of the bombs everywhere

Finally hit 300 stars lol.

@Chandlero: Hey, thanks! I'm happy you enjoyed it.
I made sure to test that platform part of the level many times to make sure it wasn't badly designed. I always aim for fair difficulty in my levels and I should be able to make more levels now with that star. ^^
Looks like you got all of the 1-ups too, even if you died on that run. For a second there, I thought the timer would get you when you were "taunting" Bowser. XD

I did end up picking this game up today. I haven't played it yet, but hope to tonight after the kids go to bed. I'm just wondering, starting this far into the DLC and updates and all the created levels, where would be the best place to begin? I'm honestly much more interested in playing rather than creating, but do I need to create to open things up, or can I jump into playing? And where would be the best place to start with that since there are now so many levels that there weren't when the game first came out? I've heard that this Panga guy makes levels that are pretty good for beginners (just kidding). Thanks for any advice.

@Xyphon22: Well you just need to finish a level in the start, then you can play other levels, there is like 70 on disc levels that you can start and then you unlock 4 levels from the Nintendo World Championship 2015, I would recommend playing 10 Mario challenge until you beaten all the on disc levels, once that is done then you can play other official levels online by either playing event courses to unlock costumes or going on to the makers option and finding official ones, once you beaten whatever then you can go and beat 100 Mario challenges as much as you want as it's user made levels or just find user made levels by themselves, however you don't get rewarded with mushroom outfits.

I made a level which I think turned out pretty good. Check it out:

Oh, and this one too:

I finally got a chance to watch the video, by about 4 minutes right before you figured out how to do it you where really nailing the jumps and hitting each one. Without having to jump towards the wall (jumping over a gap or something) I find it easier to jump straight up and kick the shell into the wall and then move slightly towards it, it was interesting to see you doing it a little different than I do and jump towards the wall before you kick it. Thanks again for the video I enjoyed watching you play it. I also watched DreamyViridi's collapsing castle video and it looks like a fun level. I will have to play it when I get a chance.

@Chandlero: Thanks. That is one of my easier puzzles.

I made new puzzle level and this might be bit confusing. In first puzzle you need to be quick before...

Try these 2 puzzle levels:

Find the Correct Pipe:
DA52-0000-011F-9026

Find the Correct Door and Pipe:
2FF5-0000-011F-9784

@AndrewWeather: I didn't see any clues which would be right pipe. Without clue it is trollish guessing game, not a puzzle, since wrong pipe leads to death..

My third stage... Nothing too special, to be honest. However, I'm planning on making a sequel, so stay tuned!

@DreamyViridi @Blue_Blur @99mushrooms Thanks very much for playing my stage and I'm very glad you liked them. I also played some of BlueBlur's levels and I must say; color me impressed with your stage designs! I look forward to playing more of your levels!
To 99mushrooms, yeah there is an emphasis on exploring the stage but I didn't really expect players to go jump in the first hole they encounter in the name of exploring. I'd imagine they go down when they see the elevators or the Para Troopers as that's what they're there for. Regardless, thanks for the feedback and I'll be sure to consider it as I'm making other stages.
On another note, I just unlocked the doors, but I have a question: Is there anyway to use a limitless amount of door pairs? I was making a puzzle stage centered around doors, but I found out you can only use 3 or 4 pairs of doors in the stage. Disappointing, to say the least.

Yea, there is a limit on everything. No way around it. I have hit the door limit myself.

Thanks! I'll play more levels later and provide feedback once again. I should probably just use this thread since this seems like the more popular one for level sharing, even though it's not the level sharing thread.
