- No slopes
- No checkpoints
- No boss-drop victory item

It's also missing certain game specific objects like pulley platforms, the evil sun, etc. I don't think any of them are deal breakers but the top three are pretty big gaps in the toolset

How are people making these screenshots?

Find a screen you like on either Gamepad or TV, then hit home, go to Internet Browser, go to imgur.com, select Upload Images, then Browse Computer. Thank you to the people in this thread who suggested that earlier.

I'm playing more goon levels again, and I'll be scheduling myself to do so on Saturday evenings at 7:00 PM EST. I'll try and follow this schedule as much as possible. In the meantime, join me as I play more of your levels, discuss level design, invite in guests, and just generally shoot the breeze with you guys. I can't wait to see you guys show up and show me your levels!

So, someone mentioned to me the other day that there were goons who wished to collaborate on making levels in real time. Thus, I made a Discord server (found at https://discord.gg/0ZOYvvJ8bV1e5Q53) for goons to voice chat and share ideas in regards to levels, or collaborate on making a larger level.

It's okay to make levels that make you happy and share them even if you think they are not amazing

It is also okay to not make levels at all and just play ones other people made!

Mario does not judge you, Mario loves you for who you are

Not every level has to be "good". While there's a fairly objective standard of what constitutes a "good" 2D platforming level (flow, length, difficulty, route options, etc.), there's a whole lot of other things at play for what you can create.

Maybe your level is pretty boring to play but looks pretty. Maybe it's not the greatest thing ever but it's got some cool idea to show off. Maybe it sucks but was made under the proviso you make it in ten minutes after downing two cups of coffee. Maybe it's telling a story. Maybe it's not great, or even good, but it's okay and is a good learning experience because dammit you made a plan for a level to make and you actually did it.

It's called Super Mario Maker, not Super 2D Platforming Game Design And Development Final Exam.

In some corner of your mind, with some memory you can attach to the joy Mario has given you, there's a level that nobody else in the world can think of, there's something that you and this level editor can make that is unique to you and only you. It won't come out immediately, but if you mess around and think of who you are and what Mario means to you i'm sure you'll put out at least one level that'll be amazing for its own individual reasons.

Just got the game and I uploaded my first level to that thing. It's not meant to be super difficult, but the top path is a lot quicker and rewarding but you only have a couple of chances to reach it, otherwise you get bogged down on the lower level, which is less rewarding.

You know... I never thought about it, but it actually fits. It can even be Phanto in SMB1, Evil Sun in 3, and Fishing Lakitu in World.

Fishing Lakitu deserves never being seen again.

pleased to note that the 100 mario challenge has a "skip level" feature if you get lumbered with some dumb level built by a jackass, as i did. it doesn't advance you along the challenge, just swaps it for a different one

I'm an unimaginative idiot so I'm probably gonna get this just to play the created levels. Some of them already look pretty nuts.

My 4 year old loves Mario (she has a chain chomp plushy that she adores) but doesn't have the skills yet to play any of the other games well (even the simplest worlds are impossible) so I'm looking forward to creating various levels that are basically hazardless for her to run around in. I can gradually add little wrinkles as she picks it up. Really looking forward to this

Me and my dad beat Super Mario Bros when I was 5, we beat lost levels when I was 7. My entire life has been preparation for this moment

So, they just put out a patch today.

code:

•“Create a course” scene: a small element was added.
•Condition(s) for increasing the amount of useable parts (in the level editor) were added.
•Various changes meant to improve the gameplay experience.

Basically they changed the part release schedule to every 15 minutes instead of one set per day.

My mom would play Mario with me and also buy games for me even if it pissed my dad off
