the theme is, the Koopalings and Bowser Jr have had it and kidnapped Yoshi. Bowser Jr. is keeping him hostage at the end of the stage. He's locked in a cage and it's up to you to save him.
Enjoy a fast drive around the Mushroom Kingdoom. You barely have to do anything. The course has been engineered to do most of it for you. You'll see as you play.
@I had to skip like 10 courses in a row because I don't even try "perfect timed jump" courses.
I read somewhere in the comments of a 100 Mario Challenge video, from a guy who doesn't own the game, that it looks boring and tedious... And I only replied to it that this is the 100 Mario Challenge he's watching, he can't expect good levels there.
Personally I quite like the "raw stream" of the 100 Mario Challenge. You're far more likely to be a fair judge of a level if you don't go into it knowing who made it, how many stars they've got and so on. And I think that over time the system does reward people who make better levels. I think I've already seen a slow improvement in the quality of levels being produced.

After FINALLY getting my physical copy this weekend (Nintendo leaving your country does that, sadly), I spent 10 hours today thinking this one up and making it work. If you're a Megaman fan, please give it a go and tell me what you think.

The only thing I kind of don't like about the 100 Mario Challenge is you can't see the map of the course before the level starts and that's part of the appeal on most of my stages because I make a picture (Larry's face a few posts above). I know not seeing the map might be a good thing and some people prefer it that way though.
I've yet to finish the 100 Mario Challenge on the expert setting. I got about 7 out of 16 courses and had to quit. It stopped being fun when you have to die over twenty times to beat a level.
@Rexcalibr: I haven't beaten the expert mode yet either but most of the fun is in playing through random levels anyways. Getting to the end is a nice challenge but it's not everything. Plus with the expert levels you do get quite a few levels that are just poorly designed. Far more than you do with normal levels. Just like if you go to the easy levels you tend to get a few very, very empty levels.

I played through the Easy mode and all the levels were poor. Most of them had the goal almost right near the start of the level.
When I play the Expert mode, I'll see maybe 1-3 good levels while the rest are bad, and not difficult because of how you play, but just trial and error and cheap deaths.
Most of the good levels I've seen have been on the Medium mode.
The biggest thing I see is a lot of the levels are poorly designed but are spammed with items, amiibo costumes, and sound/screen effects to try and make it seem more appealing. I can tell who really spent time creating their level and who didn't.
As far as getting stars, I find that if your course is easy, the better your chances at getting more stars. I got 17 stars on one of my courses (I've made five so far) and it happens to be the easiest one I've made and the most liked.
@Wonteen I tried yours but so much was going on and I dislike courses where you can't really see what you are doing at all :/
@Dpishere Played Diddy Kongs rescue, I found this really fun. I'm curious though.. was there a Diddy Kong costume at the end? If so I missed it. If not though it would of been kool to see =P deff got a star for nostalgia alone.
@eXtremeHippo played Yoshi's Island. I found this really fun and pretty to look at, at points I thought there were too many koopa's but I get that you were trying to recreate the level and it was necessary. Good job! I starred it
@dings Played Donkey Kong level. I enjoyed it a lot, starred ^^
@Rexcalibr Played Larry's Lockdown. Given the time of night I didn't get too far, I got to the chain chomp door before dying lol, it was a really fun course though from what I saw. Awesome art too on the pic Starred
@SuperWiiU The Unspookable Mansion played. I did not complete this one either, I found it fun and creative though! I got a bit confused and lost, no idea if I just went off the wrong ledge or not in the chain chomp room.
I played these levels viewing codes from my phone so I apologize if I mixed up anyones course or anything. I tried to remember it all and I have goldfish memory xD
Anywayyy I had a lot of fun with your guys courses, hope you will play mine in return courses in signature and I will edit to add the codes here if it's easier.
Link and Friends Adventure! :]

What I did on expert mode was skip the levels that looked impossible/troll levels.

Well being the stat obsessed person I am I actually put all of the stats of my levels into a spreadsheet. I don't have that many data points yet but from what I can tell there doesn't seem to be much of a pattern. I thought there was because of one of the first levels I made which got a lot of stars and happened to be fairly easy. But since then I've made levels with ~20% clear rates that have gotten a higher rate of stars.
With that said, looking at the numbers there are a few levels I've made with a high number of stars that are similar. It's a pattern of four but still. All of them are easy enough that more than 70% of the people who played the level got to the end. But even with that being the case the clear rate is still around 20%. The levels that didn't get stars? Even if the clear rate was above 20% most people didn't actually finish the level.
Which is a really long winded way of saying that levels should be hard enough that people die but interesting enough that they don't give up. That's the trick. And the quickest way to have people give up is to put in a cheap death.

I do most of the time but sometimes you can't tell till you die and then you just lose a life. or 5.. lolol I've come across stages where there is like 50 fire bars in a row or completely random timing of enemies. There was this stage today in expert I wasted over 20 lives on all because Bowser is random in his attacks/movements. I can't predict if he will jump or not and it was a speed run course filled with multiple jumps in new super Mario theme. the ending too...omg x.x they lined up a bunch of spikes and a small as hell gap for mario to fit through with a thwomp coming right down. So much satisfaction when I beat it though.... XD I feel Nintendo needs to find a way to fix expert mode to get rid of troll levels and levels you just flat out get stuck in.
