Yeah. I love that "OH!" feeling you get from some puzzles.

I've been uploading my Final Fantasy puzzles to Miiverse.
Never finished my Final Fantasy XIII ones, will have to look into that.

Could be so much better, though. Off the top of my head:
a) Needs some kind of 'quick save' option for levels.
b) Better catalogue/browsing options. The way it's handled with only two categories is unfair to 80-90% of the creations.
c) QR codes are a pain, puzzles should have codes or something that makes them easier to add (if you're sharing them via image).
^wow, nice job Kourio!
Fired it up, finished it in 30sec.
You never forget how to Pushmo, 'tis like riding a bike. 8)

Just out of curiousity, how does the "feedback" feature differ from the Miiverse icon? Haven't really looked into it so I apologize if it's a simple explanation.
After hitting feedback it seems like the format for a Miiverse post appears so I wasn't sure if it gets posted in the general Miiverse thread for the game or is a direct to developer system of some sort.

It basically gets tagged with the level itself. I think it's more for users to look for advice or impressions for specific levels than anything else.
The Kouriozan Collection. Only on Pushmo World!

I just love this game. Took about 10-15 minutes on No. 58
and couldn't figure it out for whatever reason. Get back to it two hours later and boom, first try. I remember doing that so many times with the first one.

I prefer playing the game on the TV because the colours look slightly brighter. But i don't mind playing it on the gamepad now and then.
TV here too. My wife and I alternate Pushmos so it's more fun with both of us watching the same screen.
Ah, gotcha
For me coming from the 3DS game it just feels perfect on a "handheld". I like putting something else on the TV while playing, like soccer or whatever.
Right yeah, if there were someone else with me I would definitely do that. Makes sense.
Arrived at what I assume are the last ten puzzles in Pullblox Park. There's been some challenging ones for sure, but nothing that has taken me more than 15 minutes.
So far, I'd say the game is about as difficult or maybe a little bit easier than the 3DS one. The actual difficulty progression has been a tiny bit uneven, on the other hand. Encountered some downward swings in the 101-110 pack. Just speaking from my experience, of course - naturally, the levels will play out differently for different players.

After further investigation, I really don't like how the Pushmo Fair is organized.
At any given time, you have access to 200 puzzles in the Players' Pushmo section. And bear in mind that this is worldwide, not regional.
Best I can tell, Popular will display the top 100 puzzles played for the previous day. I'm assuming it's based either on play count, or some combination of play count, Yeahs, and comments combined, but play count definitely seems to be a factor since some puzzles with less Yeahs and comments are higher on the list than others with more. This would be okay, except we get things like "Hardest Pushmo," a single block puzzle, sitting in 4th place probably because so many people load it up, solve it, and move on, bumping its play count a lot. This will also probably result in the Popular list being comprised mostly of Pushmo that were already in the Popular list. Granted it says "among those recently received" so I'm guessing those have an expiration date.
Side note: I made the Popular list, yay! Just barely took the very last spot on the list.
Newest displays the most recent 100 puzzles to be published. As more people pick up the game, this will speed up before eventually slowing down. So you don't have much time to get the amount of plays required to make the Popular list before your Pushmo is no longer in the in-game listings at all -- at least for other players.
Which brings me to my last point: Your Pushmo displays all the puzzles you yourself have uploaded. The very fact that this list is here means your Pushmo are still on the server even after nobody else can find them. This just seems dumb. Where are the options to view older Pushmo, or the previous days' popular Pushmo, or more importantly your friends' Pushmo and all Pushmo created by certain users? Sure you can find those last two on Miiverse if you feel like messing with QR codes, but this should be built into the game.
In that light, I think people should try to bring this to Nintendo's attention, because this might just be something we could get in a patch. I made a Miiverse post about it if anyone wants to give it a Yeah in hopes that it'll bring the ideas to Nintendo's attention. https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlZQ1wgSg

I'd say come back to it later to try again. This usually does the trick. I can try and reproduce my method if you're desperate, though, I guess.
Edit: Actually, I don't know if I stopped at 115 or 116, so I'd have to check.
Oh yeah, I had some "wtf" moment there, I think I stopped at n°65 or 66, don't want to rush, and no skip so far.
For the integrated Miiverse, it needs a friends section for sure, and a search function.
Anyway, there is Mario Vs. Donkey Kong coming before Mario Maker, plenty of time to improve that.
