Almost everyone's maker ID has now been added to the OP! If you want to play any of their levels, just input their code, and the game gives you all their levels to play! Also, keeps the size down as we upload more levels.
While I was adding Makers codes, I played one of every level for each maker I added if you didn't have your Makers ID here! The feedback is below, so skip to after I talk about my levels if you want to get straight to your feedback!
Anyways, I actually have 5 levels uploaded, might as well talk about them in order of upload!
The Lakitu: A Tale Of Friendship: NPB-3CY-5QG
This level went sorta viral, at over 2k hearts thanks to Vinny from Vinesauce playing and liking it! The idea is simple: A Lakitu helps you out, and at the end, you make a simple moral choice that effects the ending of the level. It's a pretty simple story level, but people seem to REALLY like it! I should note, there's a softlock near the begining that you sorta have to try to get (it involves the P-Switch). I was gonna reuppload, but people told me to keep it because the comments have turned it into a weird meme zone lol
Goombas:A Hero's Tale Of Madness: 9TP-2TH-BHF
this is a remake of a level I made in the first game that went REALLY viral (as in, 2.5 million views on youtube viral wtf). Since there's no amiibo costume, it isn't quite the same level though. The idea is that it takes place directly after Super Mario Brothers, where your player realizes that maybe Princess Peach wasn't the good guy... Anyways, for those that played the Wii U original, I've added an entirely new section that takes advantage of Mario Maker 1 stuff, and the theming is different this time too!
The Yoshis: A Tale Of Alliances: TFH-LVS-NJF
This one took a LOT of work, though it isn't all that popular sadly. The story idea here is that pair of yoshi soulmates find Bowser's last hideout, and they're helping you infilitrate it! You'll need their help to beat some pretty annoying boss battles (sorry about that, I made them annoying since I didn't want them to easily kill you lol). Of course, things don't go as planned, and there's a twist to the story that people seem to really like lol.
Like the Lakitu, there are 2 endings, but this one is a bit of a skill check. Getting the good ending is the only part of the level that requires running, as you must...
[SPOIILER]Do a running jump from the spinny shells instead of doing a final betryal jump, and reach a side thwomp, that takes you to the TRUE FINAL BOSS![/SPOILER]
Super Mario Bros 2 USA 1-1 Remix: SN7-LYT-92G
This was made for a competition in a Mario discord, where we had to remix a classic Mario level. Idea here is that Bowser has invaded subcon! I replaced the vegetables with red pow blocks (as this is the 3D World style), and implemented subspace via a vertical subarea. This level was designed with 2 playstyles in mind: A leaisurely one where you get the big coins (where the Ace coins in Super Mario Advance used to be), or a speed-run focused one where you must use Builder Mario to get a certain power-up, and use that to speed run through the final area!
This one was a lot of fun to build. Also, note that this implemts both SMB2 AND Super Mario Advance's exclusive rooms. See what references you can spot out!
Plumbing Pandemonium! : 21W-GKN-KXF
I posted this one earlier in the thread, but let me expain it some more. Basically, this level duplicates the level design in its sub area to create the illution that you are changing the water level. You solve light levels and go through mini obstacle courses as you change the water level, which dramatically changes the way you play the room. Water also effects other things, such as making blocks float, and ice melting or solidifying depending on the room.
DO NOTE however: I designed this to be a cousre that has difficulty spikes at each checkpoint! Don't get discouraged at the last checkpoint, because you're near the end with that part!
Anyways, heres feedback on a ton of levels I played while I was adding Maker Codes to the OP!
NOVED rofl that was a great concept, got a heart from me. I think this is a good way to approach clear conditions: make a short, simple level around a silly gimmick.
xfix that Celesete level was pretty damn good! Didn't try the B-side yet, but I like it, probably my 2nd favorite cat mario level I've played yet! I liked how you used pipes + bricks to serve as mini checkpoints especially.
Estarossa : i think you make good use of the ahmibious nature of the forrest theme in Pirhana Water Park. I probably would have made those last set of spikes a bit shorter so people can more easily retain their mushroom, and maybe put in a checkpoint before the red coins too. I like the idea of your boss, but I think it could have used some boss music, and the bob=ombs spawning from the top made it a bit easy. I would have personally used a switch block to get down, providied a mushroom at the checkpoint and force you to use those on/off switches you put on the side. Still, I had fun with it!
Sr. Villarreal I'd highly reccomend you remove the veruses tag from Fiery Hazards. Unfortunately, rising level doesn't reset until everyone dies, so if 2 people make it far but die, they're screwed and can't even enter the pipe. Snake blocks don't respawn for a while either, it really sucks Nintendo didn't take those account for multiplayer. Also, for your snake block checkpoint, note that you can skip most of it if you do a running jump to the skull platform. Also, for future ref, you can put boss music onto enemies so it stays activated.
Otherwise though, I like how you used the firebars in creative ways, so I ennoyed the level overall!
teal6 I couldn't find your level. Give me your maker code when you can!
Stealthbomber16 your level idea is good at inciting paranoia, with the short time limit and the pirhana creepers! I'd consider expanding this idea a bit more however. I'd also reccomend removing the versues multiplayer tag, since if time runs out, it boots EVERYONE out of the level!
Magcargo you chose a great NSMBU course to be inspired from, and I really like your twist on it! In particular, you made a great use of see-saws in the vertical area, where running through them with stars and mid-air twirls felt very satisfying. Great job!
Lady Bug your level is certainly for the hardcore Mario player... good thing I'm one of those! I think you made mostly good use of the pow block, though I imagine a LOT of people are not going to get the 3rd pow block on their first try, since it requires use of the 2nd pow block, so that could be an issue for people who find this in say, expert or super expert. Also, not sure if you were intending this, but I held onto the 3rd pow block until your goomba + muncher section, murdered the muncher with it, and basically cheesed the section. Remember, you can enter doors with items!
Broken Phobias I actually find your forest level pretty easy to cheese. Mainly because I just re-enter doors after I beat the bosses, and was able to quickly finish the level after I got the keys, not sure if that was your intenion. I'd reccomend placing the exit doors in mid-air if you dont want people to re-enter them!
The Mawile Ace : I played A Mission for a Friend. Cute level set up, and while I do like your thowmp puzzle, note that the fall away platform may be make things frustrating for some players since it's a one chance thing. Maybe a platform on tracks would work better for that part. Otherwise, had some fun with it!
Martin Note your level commits whats generally considered a cardnial sin in Mario design: leaps of faith. I see you tried to avoid that with the coin lines, but I don't think you quite went far enough. Also, after the initial koopa sectioning before the pipe, note that there's an easy cheese where you can wall jump off the ceiling platform and skip the entire koopa section. I think I also skipped the majority of the last part by doing a running jump + mid-air spins, so be careful of that when designing NSMBU levels!
MAMP Your Desert speedrun was a nice twist on the usual stuff, I liked your P-switch mechinisms! Note that you can possibly cheese things a bit by wearing a shelmet the first time (not the 2nd time rofl), but otherwise, that was a cool speedrun level!
