Waaat??
Why, that's not even an exploit, they're pretty clearly still there in the lava, it's visually confusing to not allow you to jump on them
The funny thing is during SMM1 the amount of stuff you could jump off in the lava even got expanded. Like it started as mostly Goomba's and Spineys but later on in undocumented patches you could jump off springs in lava and I think other things that you originally couldn't.
So it's like they expanded it, and then took it all away.
Maybe it's some kind of byproduct of the rising lava/water or something?
There's definitely going to be a lot of fun in the night themes.
Bummer that it seems throwing a shell keeps your physics and doesn't switch back. Would have been cool to mess with.
Don't mean to :( In any case, servers are under manteinance. I can't go online and try some levels, I imagine the wipe is undergoing.
Yes, it's crazy how puzzle focused some of the very early ones can be. Got stuck for a few minutes on some of them. :D
Streamer tried to put a shellmet overlapping a sideways spring and it just killed the spring. Come on, Nintendo.
But Pipes are way more limited than the first game...

I know I asked this before and I don't want to spam but does anyone know wether or not the promo with the stylus in Europe is still valid? The site doesn't mention it as explicitly anymore but it doesn't state that it is sold out either. And me wants my Mario stylus!
Good thing I don't really care for those "kaizo tricks", but seems like a huge loss for those kind of levels.
People apply things to kaizo too broadly. Small things you would probably never do can have pretty big effects in mechanics and set up mechanisms.
Some of the most creative and insane mind bending mechanics can have a 100% clear rate because of how well it's set up.
Plus a lot of mechanics can be done off-screen or are completely invisible to the player (like overlapping pipes)
That center pipe is 5 different pipes that take you to this hub room from 5 different paths.
I'll "boo" all this kind of shit to be sure, unless I can tell that was clearly unintended by the creator.
Short interview with Tezuka on the Switch news channel.
He implies there will be additions(no surprise) and that the "final form" of the game will be shaped by what goes on in the community aspect of creating/playing levels.

Not a surprise, but does anyone that the actual transcript of the interview? I'm curious about the wording here.
Number of reviews mention this is worth buying switch over... well done Nintendo... well done.
Since we know we can have game specific Fire Flower alts, can we please get an update to add the Hammer Bro Suit in SMB3 and the Ice Flower in NSMBU
And uhh... SMW can have the balloon or something, it doesn't really have a proper Fire Flower alt
And uhh... SMW can have the balloon or something, it doesn't really have a proper Fire Flower alt
They don't even need to make new power-ups alts if they want to, since they changed the object menu to allow for more additions.
The Ice Flower should be in every theme imo.
I figure for the main styles, they want to keep every symmetrical and not have more slots for specific styles
Oh right, forgot that 3D World is seperate from everything.
Then... just give the four main themes new power-ups?
Weird Mushroom
Frog Suit
Power Balloon
Super Acorn
Done.
Yeah, ice flower should have been a no-brainer to include. I guess they don't want to code for the freezing and shattering interactions.
I'm not sure how well it would work in smb1 where you can't grab and throw objects. Would probably be best to make it a nsmb unique power up, and embrace more game specific power ups like the hammer bro suit and p balloon.
Sure you can't pick them up, but freezing for make shift platforms and instant shell-like objects would still have plenty of utility
And idealyl you'd be able to turn things into Ice versions for certain enemies though considering the Fire Bro is exclusive to 3D World....
But if you freeze an enemy in the wrong spot you might soft lock yourself. I don't recall enemies being able to break out of ice in nsmb.
I am pretty sure they do break out on their own, with larger enemies breaking out near instantly
But also, like any level that can possibly softlock you, the creator should take measures to prevent it.

That center pipe is 5 different pipes that take you to this hub room from 5 different paths.
I feel like we don't need overlapping pipes, we need pipes with more flexibility. I feel like every pipe being 2-way was a heavy-handed method to try to help players avoid troll situations, but it's long-since obsolete. A majority of the pipes in Mario games are 1-way anyway. Heck, you still can't even make the classic Mario 1 pipe L that looks right, to my knowledge.
Without overlapping, pipes look even worse trying to make perpendicular pipes than they did in SMM1 because the bodies of pipes are narrower than the tops, leaving a gap between them and the perpendicular pipe.
Adding an option for 1-way pipes would be nice, but that's only one mechanic that overlapping pipes gives us. My example above is probably the second-most used application, having multiple pipes lead to the same hub pipe. There's no way Nintendo would make an option for that. Workarounds are ugly and take up 5x more space minimum.
