This was really fantastic. I also really enjoyed watching Patrick play it the morning after.

I'm glad that my main contribution to this was making Jeff stop reading people's names for a while.

This stream was way more entertaining than I thought it would be. What a great idea. Props to chat and the crew for coming up with some really devious and hilarious ideas.

I highly suggest every one go watch Patrick's two streams playing this level. It's supppper interesting seeing how differently he approached some of these obstacles, in ways the crew didn't intend or consider, but worked out so tightly it seemed like that's how it was designed. Watching him fall for the traps was of course fun too. There was another stream who brings a spring to the star trap place gets a star and springs out so he can cruise through the last part of the first stage lol.

The level actually turned out pretty good in how it all plays out with timings, Bowser chasing until dying on P blocks, placement of the mushrooms and what not, it's actually pretty amazing considering how randomly it was made. I guess that speaks partly to the brilliance of this game and partly to good ole ryckert luck.

I hope they do this idea again, I'd love to see some Mario Maker content every few weeks or months. This game feels like a strong GOTY contender with how much the crew is enjoying it, then again this year is pretty fierce competition with MGS5 and what not.

Watching Patrick K. play through this level is pretty interesting. I love how Bowser chases him in the beginning.

This video really was fantastic.

Level is actually easy to beat. I played it before watching this video, and I haven't watched Patrick's playthrough yet. If you stumble upon that cape, it lets you fly to the end of the level, then steal a flying clown, fly to the beginning of the level and go up a pipe, and down the pipe to finish. It takes trial and error just to figure out what each pipe does.

Two things I wish @danryckert did at the end of this level:

  1. Put a third pipe AFTER those one-way blockades at the end of the airship section, to goad players into going past the one-way blockades, but don't have it lead anywhere - just have the pipe be one of those that you can't enter at all.
  2. Right after the correct pipe at the end of the Airship section dumps you back into the Ghost House section, blockade the drop onto the end flag with the yellow revolving blocks - this would force users to make sure they grabbed that one Mushroom power-up to spin jump their way through the yellow blocks. If they didn't grab it or lost it somehow, they'd be stuck at the very end above the goal. For extra cruelty, make that Mushroom power-up difficult to pick-up by adding pits around it that it can fall into.

Oh, so it was YOU CHAT who made this level!?

I thought it was a lot trolling in it when trying it. My brothers gave me the code and I missed the video. I played other games at the time...

Oh, and don't give me "it's a really easy track" because there is NO WAY IN HELL you'd KNOW about the %¤/&¤/¤# cape even being there, not watching the video!

Take me for example. I tried it, did not find any cape and made it to around the iceblocks. After that I actually gave up.

Seeing the video, I now KNOW it wasn't who I thought it was, making the track....

There are many evildoers among the audience.... that's all I have to say about that.

So is that last row of items just nothing? I haven't seen it filled out, even on people's saves with 100+ hours.

I broke the level and completed it really quickly.

If you just chill out by the 3 dry bones in clown cars the wizard will break the wall to the exit for you eventually.

@CastroCasper: It's a customizable row, you can add your most used/favourite pieces to it.
