Super Mario Maker levels

lol, love the moment at 40:35 when he finally beats it ("i had to go back for revenge")

he says, "tough level, man"

back on it!

After watching lots of ryukahr he comes off as way too aggro for me, lol.

'Expert' is not the highest difficulty classification, right (that's 'super expert')? On super expert Ryu rarely gets past the first screen (15 levels or whatever). Not to denigrate these insane runs, just checking.

GPB is the only other streamer i watch outside of ryukahr and he took awhile to grow on me. It's mostly his ridiculous skill set; he strikes me as a better freestyle player than ryu which is really saying something.

And yeah, he's on the level below what ryu is playing but i don't think anyone could realistically do 100 no-skip super expert levels, much less 1000.

he hit 1000 today

agh spoilers!

i'm following on youtube!

aw sorry forks. i didn't think of that, my bad.

i'll cope.

I love these relay races, seeing people read the levels on the spot with no edits:

oh, this might be the thread for this...

i have a memory of a mario level, must've been a snes game, marioworld probably, which was mostly / partly vertical rather than horizontal and you had to use trampolines to go up and up. some kind of tree? i don't remember yoshi being around, was mario on his own (so not yoshi's island)

i've looked at various mario maps and can't find it, but they are large and it's hard to tell from the backgrounds, but perhaps someone here remembers.

there was a level like this in super mario land 2 six golden coins

a fantastic gameboy game entirely seared into my brain

six golden coins always jumps out to me because six is not the number that is used for things like that. there can be 3 big things. rule of 3. 7 will also work. 8 is common (a lucky number in some places, the number of worlds in smb1 and 3. 4 tasks is solid. 5 is not good but it'll work in a pinch. 10 works but just barely, getting too large to keep track of. 2 is not enough. 6, though? no one does 6

perhaps? i think it must be - the sproingy things and the trampoline. the brown background looks like bark. and all the other vertical worlds have different mechanics (netting, lifts, falling)

(i am of course just thinking about ripping it off for a pico8 game that i won't finish and nobody will ever see)

oh, that gameboy game is completely new to me, but has interesting bits in it

the snes was my brother's, and i'd only get to play it whilst home for christmas, a week here, a week there. over the space of a few years i finished supermarioworld and was most of the way through yoshi's island when he sold it (maybe even gave it away?) to one of his mates and i never saw it again 8(

did go looking for a mini-snes but...

10 works but just barely, getting too large to keep track of

me and 150 of my favourite digital creatures disagree (as well as me and 108 of my favourite stars of destiny)

but re: 6, 6 never felt weird to me but also SML2 was like the 4th video game i ever owned, and i grew up in canada so hockey was the default sport, a famously 6 person per side sport. 6 can make a hexagon OR a very nice triangle, good number

Man, I played so much 6 Golden Coins.

Watching that clip now, it looks very zoomed-in... you don't get a lot of warning of what's coming up.

xp and 880 power moons!

just reading the description this is the one I thought of. one of the few SMBW levels I still remember!!

Crazy stuff

the thing about this game is that I just know if I was around in the Switch era when I was a kid I would've been absolutely obsessed with it. I mean I used to make "Jump Dude" levels on notebook paper. so I thought I'd let my son give it a try even though he's only 8 and the level maker menu is pretty complex for something in a Nintendo game. well he figured it out in about 10 minutes, proceeded to make some of the dumbest levels ever concieved, and is now talking about it all the time. he just has so many ideas. and after the first 5 or 6 tries he's actually making them kind of fun instead of basically impossible. I'm afraid I've created a monster.

This co-op level is one of the more insane SMM things I've seen:

Also apparently people succeeded in clearing all possible levels in the first SMM before they shut down the servers, there are some fun videos about the effort.
