Just unlocked part of the 2nd editor row, will try to make a simple level soon.

Awesome! Yeah that's one reason I wanted to use the mega Mushroom. I was just messing around with it and noticed the homing bullets turned into Toads and the regular ones into Luigi's At that point I knew I had to keep it in my level. I spent a lot of time fine tuning the difficulty during the underground segment with the cannons that follow you. I didn't want to make it too hard and have people give up, but I didn't want it to be a cake walk either. Hard to determine difficulty when you play the same thing over and over and know what to expect.

I've been spending so much time playing this game. I've made three stages so far. Feel free to check them out:

Bowser's Aqua Ship (958C-0000-0024-1846): A SMB3 non-scrolling airship with a couple water segments thrown in. Ends with a boss fight with Bowser.

Mind Over Manor (7639-0000-0032-6E7E): A SMW ghost house with a small castle section thrown in. Probably my worst designed course. Features a small Magikoopa section and a lot of Big Flying Dry Bones bouncing sections.

The Tower of Up (00A7-0000-0039-903B): A SMB1 vertically inspired platforming gauntlet. Easily my best course thus far, though it probably is a bit too long. I'm quite proud of a minor Boo puzzle I put late in the stage.

No one beat any of my courses last I checked.

I'll make sure to change that when I get home tonight!

Tried it, but didn't manage to go upwards at the first wiggler. Stopped trying.

Tried it, but didn't manage to get past the hammerboys. From the lower floating platform, I only managed once to get on the platform of the hammerboys (that fell off at some point) only to slide of .. stopped trying.

Tried it and got to the wiggler, but didn't seem to get into the pipe. Stopped trying.

Count me as one of those who failed trying, though I may try again someday (and fail again).

Is the wiggler beatable? Or does it only turn red and stay there?

As for unlocking, got the airship theme and Mario Bros. 3. Next is Mario World and the next theme, but first I have to charge the battery again. The game sure seems to drain the battery faster, but using the GamePad touchscreen so much must contribute to the drain.

Fly, Falcon! D880-0000-001F-3926

This is a fiendish level where you play as Captain Falcon. It requires deft jumping and speed. Good luck! If you'd like to try my other levels, you can just follow me from there.

I'll get around to trying all you kind folks' levels some time later today if I can. Looking forward to it!

Guess what?! I tried it and failed. Don't know what happens with the jump to the first flying red koopa, but that's as far as I get.
Also tried your other levels. The lava one got me to near bowser, but only caught a glimpse of him.

Thanks for giving them a try! The end to that one is just past Bowser if you feel like giving it another go to knock it out.

As for the Falcon one, the koopa is placed to match up perfectly with a perfectly placed spring jump, but I won't be too upset if you don't feel like finishing that one.

Just finished off a level I'm quite proud of. It's got three routes of increasing difficulty. I'd love for anyone to give it a shot!

And now I'll begin going through everyone else's!

You should be able to enter the pipe. He's just there to make the section more interesting.

My copy arrived today! Whee! Look forward to some Destiny downtime so I can make a nice non-insanely-difficult level for y'all.

Btw, evildevil, I beat your Tower level. Pretty good! I look forward to trying the others.

I also played Shoe's Parakoopa level. Not bad, but took me a few tries! I look forward to trying your other levels too.
