Topic: Super Mario Maker - OT

Well, here's a fun little easter egg I found (though I'm sure some of you guys already found it): If you tap the door repeatedly, a little 8-bit Mario pops out...and there are different versions of it in each theme!

@Megumi: Keeping the info up and the hype up...D00D.

Anyways, working on another level, can only use 1 flag for a area sadly, would use multiple for decoration.

First level featuring checkpoints and progressive power-ups

Cool update. I'll be uploading some of my levels now. Some will be updated versions of old courses, more polished and now with checkpoints.

One of my favorite levels, now even better and it has a checkpoint! If you haven't played this level of mine you should totally give it a try, and for those who've already beaten it, you should play it again.

Pure distilled fun! _{any feedback is really appreaciated}

I'll upload a new level in the next 12 hours! Right now I'll play some of yours!

Not my level however I found probably my favorite underwater level so far in maker, it uses the SMW theme.

ALSO BIG NEWS!, here is what you get for beating the new Gnat attack

@Freeon-Leon: I liked your level "Donut Touch That!" and surely I will play the revisited version again.
I have only one level that is big enough to benefit from check points and therefore I did not change the level so much but just added a check point. That makes the level a lot easier, I guess. So if you wasn't able to beat it before, you should give it another try.

@Chandlero: Wow, you finally made it to the 2.0 version. I'll check it right away.

@Freeon-Leon: I would say: What's in a name?
I thought the check point would be the right thing to jump to 2.0
My idea for different versions was that I can continuously work on the level and improve it over a time of many weeks. Therefore I could enlarge the level and built in feedbacks I got here. In the end I will hopefully find closure and upload the level without any version number,

By the way: Your level is still very funny. I really enjoyed playing it again. Frankly, I have to say that I used the check point.. I was not good enough.
Therefore, I really think that check points will increase the success ratio in many levels and many people will be less frustrated. This update was a good thing!

Well, with the checkpoint system now in place, I guess I can finish my level that was made with those in mind. This was a welcome update.... except the extra Gnat Attack... That minigame was hard enough!

I've made a new level called hate hammer bros? Play this one. It's an easy level for fun. When playing this level can you guess what I get annoyed with? Lol.

Code 01C3-0000-00D7-8798

No checkpoint, but I'm proud of this level anyway!!!

I'm hoping some of those hidden costumes are the June Smash DLC characters (Lucas, Roy, Ryu) and some ballot winners.

My new level..with CHECKPOINT! a good challenge

try my new 2.0 versions too if you got time :
Haaa, FRESH Meat!!! 2.0 (4175-0000-00D6-8628)
A Mole In The Dark. 2.0 (C181-0000-00D6-9F9A)
Plants VS Pipes. 2.0 (CE79-0000-00D6-8AD4)
Where did Stars come from? 2.0 (F383-0000-00D6-921D)
Castle Brick N'Roll! 2.0 (808D-0000-00D6-9640)
A Dog's Tale. 2.0 (AB3D-0000-00D6-8F18)
The Prince Frog. 2.0 (1033-0000-00D6-827B)
Captain BIG & his 2 Brothers 2.0 (7B6A-0000-00D6-80A0)
The Fallen cavern. 2.0 (FDA4-0000-00D6-7B71)

I noticed that the Mushroom-Powerup condition doesn't apply to just when they are in blocks. It also works with pipes or if the item is out in the open. That's a nice touch.

Here they are. The skill-based levels I was talking about earlier. Enjoy everyone! I'll play other people's levels later.

More Skinny Mario nightmare fuel.

Haven't gotten to explore all the ins and outs of the new update, but thank you all for posting the info! Can't wait to check it out.

And now with the checkpoints, I went back to my 999 level and added a checkpoint at the halfway mark. Should make it more enjoyable for more players, but it can still be easily beaten in 1 run without dying. (Current record is 183 still left on the clock)

Enjoy!
(And I'm looking forward to playing the updated version of some of your courses I already love!)

My newest course with checkpoints:

One of my older courses with added checkpoints, other fixes and making some parts bit more challenging.

@sjmartin: Rosalina's Starry Night could benefit from checkpoints. I got to start of first blue skull section, but couldn't get further. Did you know that you can bit cheese in blue platform section right after first jump you need to make over starspikesquare. If you're Rosalina, you can jump to end of spikes just before star run section.
