Ugh, I don't think I'll be doing a level like this again. I'm very happy with the results, but this was so much more work than a "normal" level. And what's the special thing? Well...
Presenting my ninth:
Boo's Inverted Haunt
DBF8-0000-0042-2E51
Description: A ghost house level with a gimmick. When you enter a Warp Pipe, the level spins 180 degrees. To go right, you must go left. Stand on top on one platform, then walk across the bottom of it shortly after. And finally make your way past spinning saws and moving platforms.
Secrets: Three 1-up Mushrooms. All hidden in the exact same manner.
This one took a lot of time to do. Mapping out an exact copy of the main world in the sub world is time consuming, especially when it's flipped 180. Not to mention route planning since some parts of the map has to work both ways up. Pencil and paper was required. I really hope you guys like it, I doubt I'll do another one this crazy any time soon...
This is really insane. I didn't beat it (I died trying to make a long jump that I probably shouldn't have tried) but it's a pretty amazing level.

What time does the stream start?
Tried out the three of these, pretty fun overall! Most of my deaths (most) I felt were due to my own stupidity, so sorry about bringing down the clear average on Toaster Coaster in particular. ;P
The one thing that mainly stuck out to me, and this is true of both Toaster Coaster and the Ghouly Shrooms was a minor issue with the skull platforms being placed right in amidst the lava. It gets really hard to tell when it's about to give way when you can barely see them shake and descend.
Fun concept, although I think I may have cheated and solved it in the non-puzzle fashion.
Haha, I can guess what you did. I redid it, there are still a couple of ways to beat it, but none stand out as the super easier way. My best time is about 10 seconds remaining.

Streaming right now! Your level is in the queue.
The problem is the game spawns things as you get closer to them, if you approach slowly you'll trigger one to appear but not the other one until you advance further, ruins the timing of many things like canons and bullet blasters too.

I don't know if you're still taking level requests, but here's one of mine:

All of my hazards are in the sub area, so I can't see the death markers to really gauge how people are dying down there. I would really appreciate the chance to see how some fares down there!

I think I'll be taking a good week or 2 long break from this game. I've already put in 40 hours over the past week lol.
I'll occasionally check to see who has played my levels, but aside from that no more mario maker hahaha. I'll re post my levels one more time. I would really like to hear more criticism for my 2 most recent levels.
4th Level (NEW)
Magikoopa Armageddon
C5B4-0000-0040-E6CE
3rd Level
Kickin' Koopas
(supposed to be much easier than all my other levels, but I guess I failed somewhere, any ideas?)
D3F0-0000-0035-5897
2nd Level
Flying Buzzy Beetle Castle
60FF-0000-0026-3C2F
1st Level
Spring Jump Sewer
3C21-0000-001C-DC7C
I played 3 and 4. 3 was my favourite. One of the best Mario Maker stages I have played thus far. Simple but the design was really coherent. As for why people were failing. If you want the stage to be easy avoid putting 1 block wide jumps withs Koopas
I really enjoyed 4 but the concept is better suited to checkpoints. Dying makes you go back so far. The secrets you hid were clever. The first room was really visually cluttered. Made it hard to see. The room where you have to throw the bob omb up is also visually cluttered. I dunno of there is any way around that.
Starred both. They are the types of levels O wish 100 man Mario had more of.
yeah I figured. I fixed it in one key spot by using doors, but I can't do that every time.

how do you guys get the best out of Mario Maker?
The community levels are all shit. Some of the levels here are pretty good, but the whole inputting codes is a bit cumbersome. I don't know how this system could be better but having my iPhone open while I input codes to experience a level for a minute is a bit shit.

I really need feedback on that level. Are the puzzles too difficult?
Thanks! I will play comment on any GAFers levels that gives feedback too
I tried the level you linked here and it was super fun. Just tricky enough to be fun, but not obnoxious. I followed you, starred, and commented on your other levels too. Lots of fun. Highly recommended.
Here's one of my stages if you want to take a look:

Soon gaf, soon...
but for now I need sleep, this is game is too much fun
Input some codes from people here and on my Twitter feed. Follow the ones I enjoyed in game. Often search and play level they've starred, as they tend to have good taste. Then I follow those people as well.
But yes, it is moronic that we can't automatically follow people on our NNID friends list.

Thanks for the input. I was hoping the name of the stage would convey that you must spin jump on every Koopa you see. Maybe I'll have a different start to the stage or something.
I'll try your level right now
Edit: Great level. I love how there's a secret right off the bat. Not too difficult either. I'd say it's just right. LOL at all of the troll boxes though.
Thanks
I went pretty crazy with the troll boxes. Ghost houses are the only time I dont feel bad about hiding bullshit in boxes haha
Thanks for the feedback. After my first level I really focused on trying to introduce mechanics logically keep the difficult under control. I was going for mid late game difficulty so that is good. Tried to keep it all 1 screen tall and hide 1 ups logically.

So I didn't have much time to explore the tools (I only have the 2 first days unlocked ahah!) so most of my stages are pretty short and sweet.
Here's my last one:

I think they're banking on people using Miiverse harder, since you're supposed to have your friends in your feed and you'd get notifications of their levels as soon as the post them.
But so far im conducting myself like you described.

Yeah that makes sense. That was a bit mean of me to do that 1 block wide jump. I probably shouldn't have put a koopa per platform either now that I think about.
And I do agree with you on my 4th stage as well. I think I will take that one down and try to fix it (after my break lol). I need to think of a less complicated way to do a Bowser battle.
Would you say the clutter for the 4th level was attributed more due to the background or level layout?
Really appreciate the advice, and thanks for playing

Mushroom Kingdom Stroll
Code: F391-0000-003B-2DD9
Style: NSMB
A relatively peaceful stroll through the hills of the beautiful Mushroom Kingdom countryside. Of course, there is some danger, and some friends to help along the way. Perhaps a bit too hard for a 1-1 style course, but I think it still fits the idea of an introductory level well.

The koopa on the 1 block width wasn't hard if you play a lot of mario. I needed 2 tries for your level. Its just that for a beginner/semi beginner stage its a little too much. I personally didnt think it was bad but I saw a lot of Xs at that location.
I actually liked the bowser fight tbh. Its just that in the beginning its tough to recognize what is going on. On my second attempt I got the idea. The issue is just that I got hit by some magikoopa bullshit but that is not something you can prepare for. They are very random lol.
I think the clutter is more background oriented. But for the type of boss battle you were doing I think SMW is the way to go. I dunno how you make it cleaner though.

Ya know I was getting pretty good traction on my first few levels in terms of play count, stars, etc. But my last two are a wasteland. I was feeling pretty down about it until I realized: those were made Monday and Tuesday. Do you think it's just a matter of overall game traffic? More players on the weekend? Anyone else see similar dropoffs?

Thanks for streaming (and especially for the star!). I've been working on yours, and it flows quite well like the vertical stages in NSMB, although I'm still figuring out the final pipe; I've been getting there consistently since the first attempt but managing the timing and height of the donut block seems a smidgen tight, especially as I keep bumping my head on those deceptive airship tiles surrounding the pipe entrance. Still chipping away at it, though.

I'd love to see another player take on mine, if you're still taking requests. As bolded above: F5F2-0000-0040-42D2.
Added you both to the queue. Appreciate the levels everyone
If it's still possible, it would be amazing if you could play either of these two levels. I have to go to bed (it's almost 5am in the UK!) but I'll check out the archived stream tomorrow.
Bowser's Airborne Artillery
Theme: Super Mario World, Airship
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
Code: EB50-0000-003F-002F
Bowser's Undersea Artillery
Theme: New Super Mario Bros U, Underwater
Difficulty: Medium
Code: EB50-0000-003F-002F
Airborne is quite long, so maybe play it once and see how far you get. Undersea is easier and quicker, but your mileage may vary on underwater levels. Undersea is a sequel to Airborne, so they're both on essentially the same map. Thanks!

Thanks for the stream, good stuff! Will catch the bits I missed later. =)
I wasn't able to recreate all the paths though, heh. Biggest missing one is the Adventure Line.

I spend a few hours making a level then play some 100 man mario and gaf levels. Inputting codes sucks but I'll live. If this game had communities the gaf community would be incredibly well visited. Best levels I played were all gafers.
Pretty much 100 man mario expert is pure bullshit though.

I bought this game on launch day, but I didn't have my Wii U available til today. So far I'm kinda bummed with how so many of the top rated courses are just the flashy "don't press anything" type stages. I've really just been longing to see people make unique, but still classic Super Mario stages. Oh well, maybe it'll get there in time.
I've been digging into it as much as I could today. My first stage that I uploaded to get my feet wet, was I just made a backwards version of 1-1 from Super Mario Bros, lol.
I just finished and uploaded my first original stage. I used the SMB3 theme, and I think it's tough but fair like a classic Mario stage could be.
If anyone is willing to try it out, I'd greatly appreciate it, and would love feedback. here's the ID for it:
BB92-0000-0044-C9E2
It's called Return to Giant World

Yeah its been killing mine left and right. Although I wonder if its because I usually don't use the Gamepad all this much.
I'd suggest looking at your playtime on the daily log app and seeing if you have any numbers near 3 hours lol
I thought it was just me haha.
Added to the queue! Thank you both
If you've got space for this one in the queue, I'd love to see you guys play it! Thanks.
My first real go at creating a level (after a few throw away attempts while getting used to the tools available):
Goobma Gaol 266D-0000-0044-90F6
I'm not a terribly great SMB player, so I wanted to make a level that felt like the right difficulty to me. Some challenge the first time around, a bit of verticality, a few secrets, but a level that you can cruise through once you've mastered it. I'm pretty happy with the end result.
Feedback is much appreciated!

Thanks to everyone who watched. I might try my hand at designing another stage for a while before I do it again, although I'll definitely be back.
The battery just isn't that great to begin with, and time tends to fly in this game.

I've made a couple of levels in the vein of old school Super Mario VS. style. The levels are completely beatable while offering a nice challenge and maybe a couple of surprises. Here are the level codes:
Remix VS. One
8626-0000-0025-83C9
Remix VS. Two
DD1B-0000-0040-6ACE
If you can try these levels and leave me any thoughts or constructive criticism. These are my first couple of levels that I've designed and I look to make more with a classic style of challenge. If you like these levels, please feel free to give them a star.
Thanks.
