Super Mario Maker

Don´t forget to include replay value on good level design, for instance areas accessible only with a specific powerful.

It's too bad that even that won't guarantee that you'll be receiving stars from other players.
 
You don't use good level design to get stars, you make automatic Marios that play music and/or pay streamers to play your levels

That's what can be so stupid sometimes. You work hard on a course, only to see it get pushed aside by something that's a lot less rewarding to play. And even if people play your courses, they don't even bother to star them.
 
It wouldn't be so bad if the dang stars aren't connected to how many levels you can upload.
 
Finally got my second medal so that was cool.

I think it was a good design decision because it forces the players to think through their level and not just spam the servers / piss everyone off with shitty ones. However, the numbers seem pretty excessive, especially when it's so hard to get stars unless you're actively promoting your levels. I'd expect the second medal to be around 10 stars rather than 50, then scaled accordingly.

I personally wouldn't consider replay value *that* much of a priority. It's certainly nice to have, but given there's thousands of levels available already it's unlikely that someone is going to spend time replaying the same world, especially if they come across it through the 100 Mario Challenge or something.

I usually don't replay levels unless there was something design-y in them that I liked and wanted to check again, though for that I'd also download it and play it through Create mode.

It's supposed to mitigate level flooding, sure, but the reality is that you're going to get swamped anyhow. Instead of limiting people by how many comments/stars they get, implement a better function to filter and search levels. If you're desperate, maybe limit uploads by a time limit (kind of similar to how we can't post simultaneously several times). Not sure.
 
I think I found the hardest level so far:

9199-0000-0041-CE46

sent to me by someone in a twitch stream chat.

it actually requires abusing super mario maker glitches.

I called it, Windows Logo DLC character for Smash 4.
 
Windows logo in a Nintendo game? Seriously?
And I still don't see Daisy anywhere. Just why?
This is so depressing.

I am absolutely lovin' this game so far. Making and playing levels is so fun! Could this be the revitalizing entry in the main Mario series which has been pretty bland since Galaxy 2? I think so.


But, lol at the costumes. Mario in a kart, but no Paper Mario. Waluigi, but no Daisy. Freakin Mahjong Tile. And now Windows Logo? From Microsoft, a competitor to Nintendo? Lol!

What!? A Windows Logo!? What's next, a PlayStation logo?

After all, no Daisy, Toadette, Roy and Ryu.

Maybe a Sony logo to even things out. After all, it's not an Xbox logo they considered.

Learn it yourself, it's in the game that should be easy to grasp, and stop expecting us to spoon-feed you.

Don't you mean Apple logo to even things out?

If anything, they should do the Linux penguin logo.

try putting mario into a pipe

also i had to google to figure this out, lol

You have to first unlock the sub-areas course set. Otherwise, you can't put Mario inside pipes.
 
Basically, once the sub-areas course set is unlocked, you can create a sub-area by putting Mario inside a pipe. You must then make an exit pipe at the sub-area for Mario to exit out of.

Keep note, however, that the goal can't be placed inside sub-areas, so you'll have to return back to the main area to finish your course.

One of my Super Mario World game style courses has a hidden 1-up Mushroom, which can only be obtained if you have a Cape Feather.
