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

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

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

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.

I'm not a fan of Kaizo stuff, and I've never gotten SNES ROM hacks to ever work, so meh. But enough about that.

I think I might prepare a second "pack" soon.

EDIT: Pretty good puzzle level that I found from someone I subbed to on YouTube (he didn't post a video yet as of this edit): F130-0000-0062-5A1B

EDIT 2: This was something I wanted to try along with Music Blocks, but for now watch what this player did:



EDIT 3: After constantly changing my mind, I finally decided on a song for my (semi-)auto music level (that has a pretty boring design): 8775-0000-0067-8683

I wanted to add more instruments, but 1) the spacing wouldn't allow me and 2) putting instruments on the bottom half of the level didn't sync at all with the top half.

What do you guys think about:



I am kind of sceptical as three elements sound too few but I REALLY think that Super Mario Maker needs more terrain possibilities like slopes and also the option to choose different palattes, music and themes like Snow, Desert, Athletic etc. I feel like even the level editor in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2 had more options for this kind of stuff which is pretty sad...

Multiple routes is good, powerups are scarce towards the end (I was lucky I had a fireflower entering the final room)

Ghost Mansion
No complaints

Classic style underground
Above the ceiling was a nice touch. A few of the low ceiling areas punish you for having a power-up which is a detriment

Water way
Got the mix between having too much space vs. cluttered with enemies just right. Didn't find any 1 ups although I didn't really search for them.

Fireball Fortress
Good difficuty, I'd probably place blocks so the thwomps don't die and not have all three lives in the same place.

Mushroom Plains
Easy, not entirely sold on the star in the sky though

Have fun!
Short, because of spawning rules the sections after the first spring are easy if you keep up the pace

Bad Bullet Castle
Might do later

Played around with the concept of one screen levels and have done 2 of them so far.

One Screen World
A5B5-0000-0072-EC2C

Bowser's Tiny Fort
9753-0000-0076-BC65

Bowser's Tiny Fort is waaay better designed and is more compressed (One Screen World still uses vertical scrolling) but i had fun making both of them.

Both levels is rather hard but atlest they are not too long :P

Just make sure you don't run into the same Music Block stacking and/or overlapping problem I did ._. Also, mind the enemies and/or items you use; an area can only hold so much.

Did you need two notes in similar spots? or is only one sound channel allowed for music blocks or something?

Similar spots, yes. But then I had situations where a Music Block was immediately over another one (hence my stacking issue). As far as "one sound channel" is involved, this can be fixed by either using the lower-/higher-pitched equivalent or using both an enemy and a powerup in the same spot... except my overlapping problem wouldn't sync properly (I swear they purposely desynced Fire Flowers or something), and I couldn't use Mushrooms in place because the song I used was slow enough to fit in just one screen. Sure, I could've used the sub-area as well, but I hate cutting off songs mid-way especially when the cutoff point would make it sound awkward.

Eh... whatever... I'll probably end up reuploading my semi-auto music level at one point with "fixes". I need sleep x.x

Actually, Mario can hit it from the sides (with a Cape or Tanooki Suit) or from below; shells can do the same (you'll have to use Trampolines, Note Blocks, or Music Blocks and a Bill Blaster to make shells bounce up, though).

While traditional checkpoints aren't possible this level has a checkpoint system that uses passwords in order to skip to sections. Figured some would be interested in it.

I could totally use that idea in my Packs, but I don't feel like reuploading them... At any rate, awesome find!

EDIT: The Super Mario Maker stage for SSB4 (both versions) is now available for purchase!

EDIT 2: I'm remaking my semi-auto level stage. I'll upload it whenever it gets finished then take down the old one.

Yep, sadly that wont work with the concept I wish to do.

I'll probably make a heavily skill based level next. Think kaizo difficulty without the reaction based gameplay and blind sighting traps.

It would be cool to have a vertical level option... Maybe they could add something like a tower set :/

In case no one has seen this glitch yet.

It actually combines the appearance of one block with the properties of another and I have seen people managing to get invisible note blocks and ice blocks that can be gathered while a p-switch is active although I don't know the exact method yet.

I'm actually trying to make another level that uses that, though it also uses another interesting property.

...Well, you'll see it once I'm done. In the meantime, here's my latest creation:

The Misadventures of Toon Link
  1. E9AA-0000-0092-B61F
  2. A dungeon-like level that heavily uses Tracks to somewhat replicate the top-down Zelda games.

I've had some time to mess around with the block stacking glitch and have got some useful results.

Firstly in the video I posted above demonstrates a 2 block stack which is really only a small amount of what this glitch can do.

This glitch only works with the block tile and this includes:
-Stone block
-Brick block
-Ice block
-? Block
-Note block
-Invisible block
-Donut block
-Cloud block
-Coin

Note: Spike blocks, firebars and terrain tiles are not included in this list

Instructions or watch the video and skip to step 4:
1. Place a track and attach a block you can only use blocks that don't interact with Mario at all. I.e. Cloud, Ice and Stone (I find cloud most useful as it doesn't interfere)
2. Next just place the block you want you block stack to look like. In the video for example they use an invisible block so the stack is invisible and behaves like an ordinary stone block.
3. Move the track (and block) and place it so your both blocks are upon the same tile. If you want only a second tier stack remove the track by selecting the track tool and dragging across the already placed track.
4. For a third tier stack you want to select the block you want and draw over it (instead of placing it on top) This will override the behaviours of the block you initially had on the track and allows you to make ordinary blocks be a disguised note block for example. Then remove the track like in step 3.

Some interesting examples include:
Cloud>Invisible block>Note block = An invisible note block that with become visible once something interacts with it.

Cloud>Coin>Brick Block = Pretty much an inverse brick block (Can be collected (as if it were a coin) while in block form and solid in coin form)

Spikes and Terrain behave differently but can still work with the glitch, they however will always appear visible on top of any other block. Block properties underneath is conserved however so this can be used to conceal secrets or design purposes. An invisible block and spikes can also be used in invisible block bridges that a player would have no means to jump through to access the blocks underneath. Firebars count as enemies so the do nothing special. It is worth noting the vines with stop at an invisible block stack as the block is spawned it just needs something to trigger a graphic update.

There also seem to be some conditions that break the block stack but these are inconsistent and the stack with often return to normal after interactions or resetting the level.

My little brother made a level that crashes the game when you touch the flag, but managed to publish it after a few tries.

It's speculated that some unknown variable is triggered by complete luck based on the structure of his stage. It's a completely normal Yoshi level, but at the end, touching the goal flag will crash the game with a buzzing sound, where you are forced to reset the Wii U.

Though it seems that the result changes for different people, some crash, some don't. The level is big, so maybe certain events trigger it? Really weird lol.

It's cool that people are already discovering glitches, that will make some cool levels using them

I think the invincibility glitch has been known long enough that it seems nintendo won't be patching any of them. Since unbeatable levels would be really bad to have. Although block stack is fixable without that problem arising. At least we'll keep superspring.

Uhh... actually... I tried doing the invincibility glitch on my glitched Ghost House level... it doesn't seem to work anymore, and I swear that I'm doing the timing correctly...

I guess it's situational? I don't know...

Meh... I'll test it again later.

EDIT: Here's my reuploaded glitched level: 10BE-0000-0098-F64C

EDIT 2: Here's my last level for a long while:

Let the Shells Open the Way!
  1. FBA1-0000-00B6-1A37
  2. Bill Blasters that shoot out shells! Open a path for them, and they'll open a path for you! There's also a secret area that takes inspiration from another level I played.

I'm already making preparations for my levels. That being said, there's also some things I needed to change on a few of them, so they definitely needed reuploading.

Also checkpoints appear to be flippable according to the new famitsu screenshots! I hope they actually get the SMW midway point design for the SMW style...

I saw.

I'm more interested in the fact that you need to be able to continue from the checkpoint. I suck at level designing in general, but I'd love to make a trap level involving checkpoints.

You could also do interesting things if blocks and coins reset after getting a checkpoint and dying.

I am happy that you have to be able to complete the level from the checkpoint to actually avoid traps >_>

Oh shit. If they actually did reset, I could reupload my original Ground Pound the [?] Blocks! level.

Two links of interest:

The new Easter Egg
Glitches that were fixed

EDIT: I've started reuploading some of my levels. The rest will come later today (for me).

They're still uploaded, though since most of them are pretty much unplayable now (especially the invincibility glitch ones)... well...

Anyway, this game still isn't glitch-free. Also, here are my reuploaded levels:

Bite-sized Levels Pack #1 (Version 2.1)
06F0-0000-00D7-C6EA

Bite-sized Levels Pack #2 (Version 1.1)
F9AF-0000-00D7-CB7D

Let the Shells Open the Way! (Version 1.3)
2286-0000-00DD-DEE7

Ground Pound the [?] Blocks! (Version 3.0)
FB77-0000-00D8-A1E5

?????? - ??????? / Hold → & Run! (Version 3.0)
018C-0000-00D8-BD3E
(Not listing the actual name because this is a music level, so I want to keep it as a surprise.)

All of them have changelogs (via Miiverse).

P.S. Don't forget to do the Event Courses/Levels that have Mystery Mushroom costumes!

Personally I find it sad that they patched the glitches. If want to make levels no one can beat you don't need glitches to do so and I've always seen them as emergent gameplay.
