Never expected the block limit to get in the way but trying to make visually pleasing levels is being super hard. Wish it was higher.

Thanks, it would've taken me a while to figure that out, I've never touched Miiverse before SMM told me I couldn't upload anything before logging into it at least once. Thanks again!
A lot of the SMW stages I've tried so far gave me huge rom hack vibes already -- for obvious reasons, I suppose.
I think I have made the most difficult mario level of all time, it's really simple too, but the layout I did was insanely difficult. Winning is definitely possible (no big jumps or anything like that), but I just can't finish it to get it uploaded. Will have to keep trying tomorrow. If I can get it uploaded, I will give the first gaffer who beats it 10 bucks paypal.

How do you select which 8 bit character you want to use in the mystery mushroom once you've unlocked them in the 100 challenge? Seems randomized so far and with characters I didn't unlock.
Tap the block, I think, and it'll show the character options.

That level's insane.
I feel sorry for the unsuspecting players getting these types of levels in their 100 mario runs.
Holy shit at that ending. That is why skip is an option when it comes to the 100 Mario Challenge.
Ok so here's 2 levels following a concept I made tonight.
EASIER WITH MUSHROOM
basically, the level will give you one mushroom and you need to use it for clearing the course quite easily. If you LOSE the mushroom you will still be able to clear the course but it will be much harder to do so.
Easier With Mushroom 1: 7573-0000-001D-33D5
Easier With Mushroom 2: 8118-0000-001D-CBD3
more to come!!

Shake them, there's 2 versions in each icon.
The creepy lady saying "Super Mario Maker...." is the best part.
I cant believe you can do this stuff with mario maker
Good lord - after three hours of creating and playtesting my first course, I'm convinced that in six month's time the majority of content will still be absolute garbage. It is positively insane how much fine-tuning goes into creating a stable and even level - it seems like a process that could go on forever.
"Moving this block one space to the right will cater to the majority of jumps made by the general playerbase!"
"Replacing this mushroom with a fireflower will balance the difficulty in a way that allows us to ramp up the challenge towards the end of the level!"
"Would you look at that, the New Super Mario Bros. games were good all this time and we didn't even know it because smart level design isn't appreciated until fans are in the trenches!"
Super Mario Maker is a brilliant product in so many ways, but helping us understand how much effort must go into the balancing process for ALL games that are at least "passable" or better, including those outside of the platforming genre, is such a wonderful thing to see. I'm going to rage from here on out at anyone that ever dares calls devs "lazy", unless they have ironclad proof of such. Game development must be the cruelest mistress of them all.
Speaking of cruel mistresses, my OG romp, "Madness Of The Thwomps", is now available. Three hours to make, thirty seconds to complete. It's less of a challenge than it is a spectacle-laden commentary on the lot in life Thwomps face, and it's awesome I can do that because of how much room there is for non-traditional level design in this game. I was also drunk while designing the back-half of the course, so there's that.

Had a "kaizo" named level on my first 100 marios.
Made my rule of never skipping.... so after I finished the mode I went back and I was the second person to complete the level with 7.40% of completion xD
It was one with walljumps and LOTS of trampolines. Not very kaizo if you ask me

Ya it's a neat insight into the game design. Little things like placing a Koopa suddenly gives the player a weapon and might totally trivialize something later in the level. Place something crazier like yoshi and now you're stuck between balancing a level with people who lose yoshi and people who keep it.
Quick question. Those jellyfish, what are they? I don't have them in my palette, unless they're something else, like how Dry Bones becomes a fish.Here's my homage to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the NES: Shell Shock! Please try it!

(Don't be put off by the picture -- it's not crazy difficult, I promise!)
I hit a block on my current level. I need a sublevel to finish it. How long after sound effects is that?
I don't know which one it's released on but you do it by dragging mario to a pipe.
In other palettes I think they're just generic spikes? When you select Super Mario Bros 3 & underwater, with default rows, its on second row, third from the right. In a non-underwater level it's just a regular looking spike.
Those jellyfish are the spikes. If you're underwater they turn into jellies in the SMB3 palette, and modified urchins in SMW.
I think sound effects is the second-last unlock but you get spikes pretty early.
Finally made a level. Please don't use exploits that skip most of the level that I didn't realize were in the stage until after I uploaded it. DON'T DO IT.

Hey, that was a lot of fun!
Going through more GAF levels. I'll comment on them and let you know what I think. This game is a blast.

Could someone please give my level a try? I spent a long time on the koopa puzzles, but I've only had one person play it.
I will fire it up here in a few minutes.

Game needs to allow a Trackmania style pre-recorded stage walkthrough for crazy stages like this that most of us will never figure out.

This is so good. So, so good. I know it's hard, I know it's unfair, but it's so, so good (come on that Yoshi jump, goddammit)
...ok i might have to reconsider my "no skip" rule xD
wow, that is super clever, but I don't see anyone genuinely figuring that out unless they're absolutely insane Lol. fun to watch because so much of it was unexpected/wtfhow's
I'm super fucking impressed that people can even come up with this type of stuff

Its there, it just has to be unlocked. It'll be a tiny icon at the bottom of your screen.

Just finished my 2nd level. Based on Little Nemo Dream Master level 2 Flower Garden. I think it's better than my other one but it could still use some work. Try it out if y'all want.

The initial segment with the spring, my god. I don't think I ever could design anything like that because I don't think I could finish.
Unlocks Day 3 IIRC.
It took 4 hours, but I think I'm almost done with my first level. Let's test it now.
Second level I created. It's not long but I think it's pretty fun. Went for a progression style level. As with my first level there are three 1UPs to be found.
