instead of making a really hard wall jump filled death pit, which everything I've tired making inevitably turns into, i tired making a really easy level, with no wall jumps
some feedback would be nice, as i had no idea what I was doing

I gotta say, B_Bech, I've had really mixed results with the primarily non-GAFer-made courses I've tried so far. But I tried this one because of Me_Marcadet's praise above... and holy crap, what. A. Turnaround! This level is superb. I couldn't get into the Pac-Man or Yoshi Coaster ones because I didn't have the patience or skill for them at this particular minute, but man, the level above is a real treat. Your design philosophy is stupendous and I plan to recommend this one for the GAF Showcase. Supremely excellent stage!

The level was fun, not really challenging but fun (I know I died one time ^^). There were many power ups though. I think having a little less would make it a quite challenging level for not so skilled players

For a first attempt I thought this was pretty good, some of the jumps felt abit in awakward in terms of placement and the were abit to many spines.
But yeah, not bad. Not bad at all

I think I'm getting the hang of this. Didn't really have much of a concept in mind, so I figured... "Why not just do a pure platforming level?" No gimmicks. Start on the left, end on the right. Well, I can't quite help myself with adding secrets, so it has the usual three hidden 1-Ups, and actually over 100 coins, too.
Anyway, presenting my fifth:
Koopa Heights
4CF5-0000-002E-5063
Description: I wanted to do a Super Mario World style level. And I don't mean "a level with SMW's tileset". I mean a level that plays like a SMW level. This is that level. The only enemies are Red Koopas, and apart from the secrets, everything else is pure running, jumping, and timing. Mario at its purest.
Secrets: Three 1-Up Mushrooms and a Yoshi
So, anyone want to tell me how far off I am from a Super Mario World level here? I think I got pretty close... but I'm the creator, so I can't judge that. It should be beatable on the first go if you're careful. But there are a few tricky jumps, I'll admit.
Echoing the sentiment - Great job! Really had a sense of progression - liked how the third secret mirrors the first.
Boo Bridge is a pretty fun level, but Tall Tall Tower was great! Loved the variety of mini-challenges, particularly the vines/note blocks one. Good job - it really felt like I was moving up, and reaching the top was super satisfying.
Just made a new level inspired in Donkey Kong Country with Donkey and Diddy Kong!
Please check it here: CFF2-0000-0030-1ABA
Remember to find the bonus stages!
Super fun, loved all the different segments! I'd just recommend you'd have the vine blocks be below some sort of hazard otherwise it's easy to pass the segment by standing on the block and not the vine. Loved the bonus rooms as well, great use of P-Switches!

Bowser's Heavy Metal Battalion is fantastic - great work, especially when going between the outside & inside of the tanks!
This comment really means a lot to me, really. It was my childhood dream to make Mario stages... that's why this is my GOAT game. I've been drawing levels in my notebooks and coming up with ideas since I was five years old. I hope I get more stars too, because I want as many people to enjoy my stages as possible! That, and I'd like to upload more than 10. I think exposure has to do with how well known you are on Youtube during these early stages. That, and people with advance copies European/Japanese seem to have gotten a tiny boost due to their stages being in circulation. Once you get on that list, your stars explode... almost in a viral way. That said, it's hard to get noticed. I don't think many people play 100 Mario challenge due to the overwhelming amount of bad stages. I just skip a ton to find the gems!
Wow thanks! Once I get enough stars I'm going to make three sequels to the Steampunk Castle to make a full world. Follow me and look forward to it. What's the GAF showcase? I'm honored but clueless!

Pretty good.
There are too many power-ups, and I think you should consider removing some of the moving platforms. I would get rid of the fire flower near the start, as well as the one on the floating platform. It would also be good to make the platforms vary in direction.
Maybe replace some of the platforms with red paratroopas.
Thanks for being the guinea pig! I think next time I'll try to make a level less extreme and more fun to play, there's still a couple of ideas I want to try.
Good idea! Nice aesthetic and fun, windy layout.Piping hot and fresh! Here's my latest level:

Nobody's gonna take Mario's car, he's gonna race it to the ground.
Always wanted to make a stage like this since the Mario Kart costume was revealed, and the results are pretty all right.

It's one of the big issue the game has. Average people don't seem to have the skill or patience to complete levels. As a fan of challenge, I'm a tad disapointed by the community. I hope Nintendo will fix this issue by enabling some kind of filter. I will try your stages, this thread is a mess and it's hard to keep track of the codes. It's a shame Nintendo couldn't let us search levels by using usernames...
Try the ghost house, it's amazing, that's the one who make me think of the enius of Yoshi's Island. The battleships and the underwater level are also very good. Seriously, everyone should try B_Bech levels, I hope someone will give him some spotlight.
Haha, yeah my brother raged so hard because of the springs. He still hasn't completed it.
You might be right about the bullet bill jump, that seems to be the place where everyone else who tried the level died, I should have added another block.
Also thanks for the compliment.
I think I know which jumps you're referring too and yeah, I'll probably change them. There are helpful items before each horde of Spiny to dispose of them quick, but maybe I'll rethink that. Thanks, I appreciate it!

Getting the difficultly just right is trickier than it looks
Made a new level. Feel free to leave some feedback.
All the P-Switches
B157-0000-0032-8EA9
Medium difficulty SMB3-style level. Not too long if you run straight to the finish, but it has some bonus rooms which provide additional challenge. There are three 1Ups to find.
You can also try my other courses if you haven't already:

Sawblade Panic: B7B7-0000-0026-2DFB

You would like my levels. Look up my post and check em out if youd like. The other dungeon maps under my authur name are the wifes. Also not bad levels.
But seriously, i totally agree. Some people forgot that mario doesnt need to be hard to be fun.
I Wanna Be The Guy
U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
It's bloody hard, dude.I feel your pain - my level has a clearance percentage of 0.00%! I think it's challenging, but not THAT bad. *shrug*
The Tunnel of Imminent Peril

It's because getting the right balance is not so easy. As a creator you just don't know how a player might approach a level blind.
It kind of sucks that you can't edit an uploaded level. My last one had some stupid stuff that I had overlooked so I had to change it and delete the old one, and now all the plays and stuff are gone.
Oh well, at least I still have my stars.
It's 'Through the Woods*, BC8C-0000-0032-99C7 by the way.

anybody?
Haha. The problem of being too close to it as author, I guess! In fairness, if there was the ability to add checkpoints I think one right after the chain chomps would be perfect.
I made a few levels, if anyone is interested in checking them out.
World Minus 1? (4CA2-0000-0024-70B0)
For kicks I made a version of 1-1 that goes right to left instead of left to right. I know, I know, yet another 1-1 remix - but in my defense it's weirdly trippy to play.
No gimmicks (D6C4-0000-0027-D048)
Here I was just trying to make a nice, straightforward SMB3 level. I was aiming for not too difficult, the kind of level you might see around World 3 or 4. There are a few "secrets", although they're not actually that hidden.
Race the firesticks! (5034-0000-0030-5730)
Here I was going for something a bit more difficult. At first it was going to be just a normal castle stage, but halfway through I hit on the idea of having players "race" against rotating firesticks through circular pathways. I like the mechanic, although I think I could have done better with the progression of difficulty. I might go back and explore the idea further in a shorter, more focused course.
I'd love to hear what you guys think of them.

Haven't tested but try R or L trigger maybe?
Codes? I went back a couple of pages and couldn't find any posts by you.

My latest level entitled ROB'S Reflection is pretty simple and short to complete, but I just wanted to play around with the idea of a mirror reflection type level. I think it's a concept which could be done brilliantly in more talented hands than mine, so please free to use the idea if you so wish.

Now that I've had some time to play the game, I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised with all the "social" aspects of this game. I think the miiverse integration is great and it's nice to see notifications when people play your levels and so on. It's too bad this wasn't a Wii U launch game since it's a great use of all the hardware and software features.
Here's hoping Nintendo keeps refining and patching this like they've done with Splatoon.

Thanks for all the stars, guys! I can now upload 20 stages. 50 stars= twenty stages. I'm going to work hard on the next batch, then post them here for feedback. This game is ridiculously addicting. I can't even believe how good some of your guys stages are. I just played a really epic Heat man recreation. Keep em' coming. PM me at least one of your levels and I will play and star them all by finding the rest on your profile. GAF needs to have a stage making contest with themes--almost like a picture prompt writing essay.
God, trying to keep up with this thread is like trying to drink from a firehose. Here's my last stage for today, a castle level with a couple references to other SMW castle favourites of mine.
Wiggler's Red-Hot Fortress
(92AB-0000-0032-4720)
The two moles at the front come up out of little holes, so you almost have to dig them out. Maybe you like it but I felt like they're hassle enough without risking a hit by jumping on them. Just my takeaway on that placement.
You take damage. I think that's it.

Alright, thanks!
Having a blast with the game so far. Played 10 mario challenge, but it was fairly easy, so I jumped into the online creations and boy, there are some fantastic levels there.
