Mario Maker is probably gonna be the last 2D Mario game since it offers an unlimited amount of levels from users around the world (obviously).
I don't think so but maybe they are going on a break with them for a while.

Edit: Lots of the review copies are out so there is heaps of content showing what's in.
Haven't seen any grab blocks. So probably not in.
Flying mechanics looks similar enough to smw but I haven't seen any skilled players with the game attempt roy fly stuff. however many other things operate differently so flying may be simplified.

Jelly. So jelly :(

Anyway, after watching a certain video, I've now seen something that might boost creativity: Mushroom-/Powerup-avoidance levels. For Mushrooms, they could be traps so that if you do grab one, you wouldn't be able to get through a passage. For Starmen, they could be arranged so that if you do pick one up, it'd kill a vital enemy needed to progress.

Of course it doesn't stop there, but I'll just keep quiet for now.

The ice bricks melt when hit with fireballs, so you could force backtracking or long stretches of taking no damage with the fire flower power up.

You could combine fire flower with your small mario idea and have the backtrack take a different route too.

I think I've decided to make puzzle-based levels. While it probably won't be popular with those who... well... hate puzzles, I really wanna pull this off.

I'm mostly taking inspiration from a certain Super Mario Bros. fangame, but seeing as some objects seem to be missing anyway, I'm gonna try to make my own original levels.

lol A puzzle level was one of the first i was planning to make too.

Does anyone know if lives have a purpose in levels? I guess I might just use them in place of secrets

They're only useful for the "Story" modes of the game (10/100 Mario) or hard solo levels in general. Other than that, not really.

So picking up lives adds to your count in 100 and 10 Mario challenge? that seems to undermine it imo. As for hard levels I have never seen a lives counter on screen anywhere.

Playing levels alone removes the counter since you have infinite tries, but seeing as both "Story" modes pick random online levels (and probably those you saved on your Wii U; no confirmation yet), it's better to include at least one or two 1-ups than none at all.

EDIT: Found awesome levels which I'm for-sure downloading

I personally don't see myself using the shell helmets much at all. Good to know there are standard enemies that can hit p-switches, this seems much more useful to me.

I don't think it is that bad considering it means no map gets a head start for the first week or so. I'm sure plenty of imitations will pop up some better than the original.

Anyone interested in having a monthly or bi-monthly mario maker design competitions? I can buy some supporter for the winner as long as we get entrants.

I'm sure there will be some informal competition between us with just "see if you can beat this puzzle map of mine" I guess it is just wait and see, maybe the thread will get some attention when the game is released.

All I just want is for Nintendo to cancel this game, and instead make Little Big Planet 3 DLC to contain Mario-themed level parts.

Once Nintendo becomes a 3rd-party company and no longer supports and/or makes their own game platforms, they will have to make games for PS4, Xbox One, and PS Vita onward, and likely the next gaming platforms that follow those. It's obvious because, most recently, they have nearly NO 3rd-party support.

While I agree with the third party thing, the cancelling won't happen (even disregarding the fact that it's coming out this Friday as of this post).

@31Gabe:

Did you look at LittleBigPlanet while developing Mario Maker?

We're familiar with that, but we weren't really looking at it at the time. We played LittleBigPlanet, and we thought it was really well made, but of course when creating our game we made it according to our concepts and what we wanted. Our ideas are to have a fun creative experience that was intuitive enough for anyone to pick up and play. Yeah, we looked at that game, but we had our own goals in mind.
(Source)

Anyway, has anyone uploaded any levels yet?

3 in fact

DC4B-0000-0020-374D
Small level inspired by the fact magikoopas can despawn the goal with their magic until they are killed.

5F21-0000-0020-ABE8
A gimmicky level build around guiding a mushroom to the level end.

07A9-0000-0028-6F3B (There was a break by taking a koopa shell outside, I've patched now)
A puzzle oriented map. I was planning to do my first puzzle map in smw but they changed it's physics and behavior much more than the others so I worked with smb3 instead.

Yourself? I'll send some stars your way.

There are some areas he meant to be secret, and those parts are challenging sections that abuse much Skinny Mario can jump, but he added coins for the flagpole koopa jump which is definitely a place that should have coins.

i make taiko maps
he makes the mario maps

Anyways it's an airship stage where every ship has its own theme, but the best part is the ending where he made it so you have to survive Bowser long enough to complete the stage! It's not too hard if you get the items (pssst, I think it's kinda ugly).

Thanks :) Hopefully it wasn't too confusing as to what to do. At any rate, I don't know when I'll be making a second pack since I wanna see how many people would even be interested in these kinds of levels first.

I'll be trying out your other level later on today.

Long levels are interesting and all, but when you die pretty far in...

*sigh* They REALLY need to add checkpoints to this game...

Too easy to have a player go through a pipe, hit a checkpoint and then be stuck in an inescapable room. Or if you could set where you respawn do what the romhack tanuki5 (I think it was called) where you need to grab a checkpoint then kill yourself to spawn in an area where you can progress.

Fun level that is actually skill based rather than luck (unlike plenty of expert maps). 1st live was the only one I found hard others were 1st try.

Idea is undeveloped especially with the limited items you have. A 1 block gap with munchers across the floor can be used to make only shells access to areas also a tall bullet bill launcher on top of a single brick block above a pit can be used to make a wall that can be removed by a shell and is impassable by Mario damage boosting through it.

Fun level, for future reference you can take items through doors with you. Luckily the tanuki suit or bringing a shell through with you didn't break a later section.

Going to work on another puzzle level, just need to test some things (Maybe making a list of helpful object combinations could help others)

I'm aware you can bring stuff through doors (and pipes, for that matter), but I made sure you couldn't "break" anything (unless you went backwards, but what's the point).

EDIT: Half-relevant to this thread (not like the SSB4 one is currently active...):

It's still a work in progress but if people can find breaks it is much appreciated. I also hope it can give you some ideas to put in your own levels.
I'd say it's only about halfway done.
It is also smw.

There is a break using yoshi's tongue to grab the spinys through the wall, I will fix when I can FIXED and updated

That SSB4 mario maker stage is pretty cool looking.

Anyways, literally just spent another 6ish hours today making a hard SMW castle themed stage with P-Switches and a Bowser fight at the end that utilizes the P-switch mechanic.
The only problem right now is that the timer gets pretty close to running out.. I might have to omit some things. I'll probably have to cut out some of the less interesting parts I guess. And the biggest issue of them all is obviously coming up with a name!

I managed to get to the block/coin part with a trampoline/p-switch/yoshi/goomba but I'm completely stuck after that.. Is there a way to get a super mushroom or escape from that specific room? lol.

1. P-switch*2 -> 1 for coins / 1 for door
2. Downward plant for yoshi
3. Trampoline
4. grab p-switch with trampoline/yoshi
5. use trampoline to hit goomba from underneath so you can use it to kill the piranha after
6. I'm now in the room with the block/coin/block/coin part with a possible Goomba/Yoshi/P-Switch/Trampoline.
7. ???? now what? lol one P-Switch isn't going to be enough, and I still need it for the door.
8. I guess I can get access to the 1-up as well with just Yoshi (Run/Jump/Launch off highest point. not sure if you meant to have the trampoline, for it though), but I don't think it helps with anything..

^ spoilers above for the puzzle. I'm just as lost though :(

Solution:
1-4 Is correct
5. Take Yoshi with the spring in his mouth to the first room.
6. Hop off yoshi and push him through the one block gap.
7. Bounce off the spring on Yoshi and lick the firebar to get a fireball in yoshis mouth
8. Return to the second room and on the left side of the bridge spit out the fireball and run so it kills the enemies
9. Collect the p-switch and the second yoshi that has spawned, move both yoshis to the right side of the room inderneath where the enemies were
10. Kick up the p-switch into the narrow crevice
11. Jump up off yoshis back
12 carry the p-switch through the yoshi egg should hatch into a super mushroom
13.spin jump down the blocks with the p-switch
14. Go through door
And Complete
Glad to see how much trouble people are having

oh. so I needed two Yoshis lol wouldn't that make the method I used viable as well? I'll try it, even if it is slightly harder XD

Anyways... I'll try to complete your course now that I know the last gimmick.

P-Switch Infiltration: E34E-0000-003F-5F5E (damn this ID is confusing)
Difficulty: Hard
Mode: Super Mario World
Bonus: Collect the 3 1-UPs
Rush through Bowser's Castle utilizing P-Switch Power to advance through each section. A unique Bowser fight awaits you at the end!


Edit:

Green Platinum wrote:

Just completed it using my method.

Instead of the Fireball, you can use the spring, jump up with Yoshi, Eat one goomba. Hop off Yoshi, and throw the spring upward under the 2nd goomba (try throwing it under the music block) The goomba will walk itself around and fall in the area you are currently at. Toss the Goomba up so it lands in the middle platform and then off yoshi to land on the same platform. grab the Goomba and walk into the piranha plant.. the rest is the same.

All in all, it doesn't hurt the puzzle since it's actually harder, but I learned two new things today. two yoshi -> mushroom spawn and you can eat the fire things XD

Nice puzzle. Instead of a second area though, just leave it as is. Make the second puzzle a whole new map since the one puzzle was long enough as is.

My method allows me to make all the enemies piranha plants :3 But I like having the timing aspect when getting the spring much like having the boo

It is actually 3 Yoshi's on screen will make the third hatch as a mushroom otherwise the furthest away will despawn. You knew about p-switch door entry?

I still have tricks up my sleeve for other levels.

Did you you get to the p-switches at least? Because I count them as the start of the puzzle. If you haven't seen any spoilers yet perhaps watch a bit of the VOD I linked to help you get started.

It was mostly trial and error for me. I tried springs and yoshi as well, but the p-switch worked. I remember the original super mario world you could jump off of p-switches and such before it vanished, so it seemed only logical. I even tried to eat the P-switch with Yoshi before it ran out to reset the switch. The piranha plant growing downwards was also new to me.

^ I agree. A checkpoint at about where that hammer bros or flame thing was would have been perfect.

A fast run from me had about 100 seconds left, and wait, what do you mean you only used 3 P-switches? Did you find a skip or something?

You can use a cannonball fron the room with the firebars to skip the starting section and the spring. You then pass the next 3 walls using P-switches and you can skip the sledge bro and the one just before Bowser with some luck.

Time to get rid of that cannonball then....

Yeah the sledgebro one is a bit glitchy, but I decided to leave it. For the Bowser Room one. there's no real point skipping it, but I guess you could if you wanted to lol.

Did you you get to the p-switches at least? Because I count them as the start of the puzzle. If you haven't seen any spoilers yet perhaps watch a bit of the VOD I linked to help you get started.
I found them, but I don't know what to do with the 2nd one...

Guess I'll take your advice once I give it another go.

EDIT: I give up... Also, I think you posted the wrong times for that video, because I didn't see your level at that point.

Derp... Probably would've been easier for me to find if you did it like 1:00:00. Anyway, I finally made a new level (separate from the Bite-sized series):

Ground Pound the [?] Blocks!
  1. E63B-0000-0043-B5D4
  2. A Ghost House, puzzle-ish level where the title is self-explanatory. Inspiration came from a couple of the sample levels (or courses, if you prefer).

Went and fixed P-Switch Infiltration.
New ID: FD08-0000-0043-7BE5



Also made a Boss only version of the same course, with a Fun little Bowser Jr. fight (you can skip him though by running past him) | It gets right to the point instead of doing the long level. I'm sure you guys would prefer this instead.
P-Switch Battles: 341E-0000-0043-CA66

Will play your course shortly Blazevoir!

Edit: that was pretty fun. For some reason i feel like the reset doors were meant to be trolls XD

Good map, the last puzzle took me longer than I expected. Sadly only vine blocks reset through doors, so the reset doors are useless. theres also the occasional despawn problem.

I needed a break from my planned MMM level

Yeah... Someone pointed that out, so I took it down for the time being. I'll post the revised version later.

Also, where was the despawn problem taking place at? If you mean in the main area, that's intentional.

In the last puzzle, if you drop the far left spring and run to the far right it can despawn but it is largely unavoidable

Ah... Right...

There's also a similar issue in the sub-area that I found. For that, the only fix I can think of at the moment is using pipes that will infinitely spawn Bob-ombs and/or Trampolines, but that takes up a bit of room (even moreso since I'll need to initially block them off first)...

I'm gonna be editing for a long while again ._.

Bowser Jr is a butt.


I also made a bob-omb puzzle myself that could be used as a checkpoint or something. Gonna incorporate it into another course down the line... probably for a long one or something :P

Shoutouts to hitting an object limit and not one of those super low ones like Bowser, pipes and doors and it's not enemies either

I personally preferred to old version a lot more, this one obviously favours completability over challenge. I'll still give a star.

Working on another hard map, unsure if I will upload it

I still have a copy of the old version. I might upload it once I can figure out what to do with the sub-area.

At any rate, a certain game has given me inspiration to try and replicate its levels as much as possible. I'm sure there are others who are already doing the same, but since Super Mario Maker doesn't have a "search by title" feature...

EDIT: Never mind... I won't be working on them right away since I need to catch up on other stuff first.

Woof, finally got to finish a level instead of hating 90% of all levels that pop up in the 100 Mario Challenge

A Plumber's Dilemma

F799-0000-004B-1818

NSMBU-style Underground level that uses lots of pipes - I only noticed a few minutes after the idea popped up in my head that there's similar levels in SMB3, NSMB and NSMBWii. Several sections include the possibility of going multiple paths on pipes filled with piranha plants.

Since piranha plants take an awful time to appear out of their pipes the first time all pipes with a plant in them are marked with coins.

Hope it's enjoyable, haven't made levels for quite a while. Wish there were better uses for lava...

Made quite a lot of Mario maker level, and while there is some things/Tools I miss from working with Lunar Magic I still love it.


Anyways, codes.
I have made more than these but these are the highlights of the levels me and friends have made.
Check out my SMM profile if you want to see them all.

Codes
Blazing hot!
0FE9-0000-0012-2539

Castle SMB3 level based of the idea of fire, mainly the rotating fire sticks. My first well made level with Mario Maker imo.

Forgotten Ship
5545-0000-0016-A3BE
A ghost ship level that's more of an puzzle, kinda unfocused but cool concept.

Mr. Dry Bones Wild Ride
3DD9-0000-0024-2566
The ride never ends.....
A rather cruel level where you have to jump on and off of a bone raft to get to the end. If you fall down you have to run back to the start to try again. (Or restart the level)
It has 0.93% clear rate so be prepared

fish and ships
81B5-0000-0025-45C2
The most popular level uploaded to my profile!
A rather eventful level a friend made with mini bosses, ships and fishes riding clown cars.

Vineway To Heaven
ABE6-0000-0036-7E52
A level that's more vertical than horzontal. Climb, jump and bounce to Heaven!

Pirate Plants
2CC8-0000-0042-D5D1
A collab between me and the friend that made fish and ships. Focused more on a plant theme this time around.

bark boat
7CF5-0000-0047-9937
Yet another level from my friend. This time with a Chain Chomp theme.

Might post more later

This almost would look like something I'd see in an actual game (any of the NSMB ones, but I suppose the older games could work, too). I say almost because... well... the winged Piranha Plants, lol.

Just got through the Xgor marathon as I'm dubbing it. Wild Ride took the most amount of tries but I finally managed to conquer all the levels. Great job on them :P

Edit:
Cool stage Nwolf. I liked the simple idea of ground-pounding a block to unlock the fire flower.

Nice job. Glad you enjoyed them.


Made a new stage. This time an automatic mario level with music. I made it possible to beat taking the lower route but that route is weird to play :P
U.N. Owen was Mario?

I saw that link yesterday and tried to make somewhat of a go at it, but I failed miserably. Maybe I'll try again today or something.

BTW, really cool course Xgor. Wonder how many people that play Mario Maker would actually know what Touhou is :p

You mean aside from us, those who like to keep saying "TOUHOU IS AN ANIME, HURR HURR", and Japanese people? lol

In all seriousness, I have no idea.

EDIT: Having issues with making an auto-music level. Piranha Plants literally keep appearing ABOVE Donut Blocks (they didn't bounce at all, otherwise I would've heard a sound) when I test the level even despite setting things up like this (from top to bottom):

Donut Block
empty space
Piranha Plant
Music Block

Am I doing something wrong?

Why just me, then... ugh... I swear this is discouraging me from actually trying to finish making one ._.

EDIT: Herp... It was because it was placed literally one block too close from the start... *headdesk* Right then... Expect an auto-music level from me at one point.

EDIT 2: Wonder when they'll patch this:

Doesn't look that problematic. It's already super easy to make levels the majority can't beat because game mechanics and with the maps panga is making etc it isn't introducing any new level of impossible for players. You can always skip too.

Made an attempt at Chocolate Island 5 from SMW. Obviously a lot of things I couldn't replicate and the level also wasn't long enough so I had to cut off a bit of platforming at the end (the block platforms that expand horizontally or vertically) I used piranha plants for the clapping charging chucks or whatever they're called and replaced dead blocks with regular blocks, and some solid blocks so you can't actually hit the spiny from below. I need something better for the fish as well maybe.. though I kinda like how the behave.

Well check it out and let me know if there's any improvements I could do. thanks o/

Chocolate Island 5: 5E29-0000-005E-4D6A
Mode: Super Mario World
A remake of Chocolate Island 5 from Super Mario World that tries its best to live up to the original.


Also made a very easy platforming level as well. Nothing special. Was hoping that this might allow Easy to have a natural Mario course lol.

Platform Basics: D179-0000-004E-CAA8
Mode: Super Mario World
Simple platform level that I hope feels like a legitimate course.

Chocolate island 5 is one of my most disliked levels from the game, recognised it instantly so thats a good thing I guess.

Your platform level is really good especially the secret placement.

Completed and starred both.

Not sure what I can say as far as improvements go because it's been years since I've last played SMW, but I think you captured that level pretty well. I found it hilarious you used winged enemies in place of the bubble-trapped ones XD

I saw another level of theirs featured on Nintendo Life. I actually posted it to the OP.

pangaeapanga is a pretty experienced Kaizo SMW-Hacker, so it shouldn't be too hard for them to come up with something pretty cool here as well even though the game behaves differently to SMW. I have seen some amazing stuff by them already.
