3 Designs for "Don't Ground Pound" Levels in Super Mario Maker.

[@williamr7147]

Technically, ground pounding is healthier than dying.

[@Toast_Drawz]

no h.x true

[@sanyimyint2476]

True

[@dragonsquad9144]

No its NOT

[@deloen]

Found the loop hole

[@TwiddydinkiesREAL]

@@dragonsquad9144 it's true dying is even worse than ground pounding

[@seabassthegamer6644]

(Bowser learns that ground-pounding is not healthy) (Makes all of the levels require ground-pounding)

[@disholdumbrella8541]

that sounds like the one way bowser would actually beat mario

[@kronalord3764]

Electric Gaming he doesn’t wanna kill the guy the parties kart races and sports events would be way to tense than

[@taylorclough8128]

Kronalord exactly, so instead of killing him, Bowser just makes Mario unable to participate, due to sitting problems.

[@paulbreaux777gmailpaulbrea8]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL

[@cameroncrawford6671]

Haha

[@2saph2lose28]

Ceave: Mario's thing for ground pounding is killing him. Also Ceave: *Let's kill him.*

[@ciphergacha9100]

Yes but then he respawns

I was hoping you would say "the pow block goes pow, and Mario goes ow"

Do a level where Mario cannot spin jump or twirl. It will help Mario get rid of his horrible dizziness.

[@danieldavid3766]

What about no spin, but you're allowed to jump?

[@Kiranmario]

... dat doesnt make any sense

[@xnik5374]

it does though

[@JorgetePanete]

[@CandyKanna]

Logan Cooper he didnt necessarily mean using this technique

[@danieldavid3766]

Now, we need to combine all of these ideas on the Dangerous List of Evils into one.

[@paulgrotebeverborg1119]

Step 1: use any other theme than the U one. Step 2: enjoy.

[@paulgrotebeverborg1119]

You can only ground pound in the U theme.

[@leoncst7060]

[@dennisimojr]

They might want to use some of the other Wii U features like wall jumping though

"Don't Breathe" Levels in Super Mario Maker

[@phaneronym]

Easy. Just make a water level.

[@greymipgeometrydashandrobl3901]

Yes

O_O

[@deborahdeclue]

Greymip / Geometry Dash And Roblox Gameplay!.

[@catholiccontriversy]

I just want to say, this channel did more to make me want to buy Mario Maker than any Nintendo marketing ever. In fact, Nintendo marketing did the opposite and made me *NOT* want to buy it; "play levels created by the community, some are easy, others are hard" (which tells me "play levels created by people who don't know good level design and by sadistic developers where it's a wonder they were able to beat it themselves"). After watching your videos on all the cool things people have done, now I want to buy it. And Nintendo thinks people won't want to buy their games if they see gameplay of it.

[@thehale_]

“Lets make sure mario doesn’t get killed from his ground pounding addiction and stay healthy” *kills him when he ground pounds*

[@Ultragamer63]

Okay, how about a Don't Play The Level design?

[@nimiala8595]

Ultragamer FanFic Readings we dont need more

[@cherryzerd1224]

Auto levels already exist.

[@mr.s1d590]

Enter a level land on p switch mucher

[@rhysdog8600]

a troll level with extremely bad note blocks sounding and at least a dozen pick a door/pipes with 5+ choices each and no checkpoints.

[@ballsucker89]

XD

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

The thing I like most about your videos is it’s not just about the levels, it’s about the story you tell as you play, that’s what makes them so enjoyable. Hooray

[@tylonbordeaux6420]

I guess you could say..... Mario was.... *Grounded.*

[@solarmaster3405]

How to make the perfect don't ground-pound design: _don't use the New Super Mario bros U theme._

[@vanderengland5775]

I love the stories and the continuity of your videos!

[@zombieguy4444]

Do “Don’t Crouch”

[@zombieguy4444]

Logan Cooper Maybe use pipes, or something with skewers Skewers can’t hit crouching small Mario There are probably other stuff that does that Or use mushrooms and one way walls

[@fildemen6626]

But all you need to do is place one way doors facing Down...

[@arthilas_]

Don't crouch as Small Mario is actually possible, but only for short sections, if you use (hidden) pipes, which Mario can enter - but you're limited to 10 enterable pipes per subworld. If you want to prevent Super Mario from crouching, you have to put one-way gates pointing down one block above the ground. If Mario crouches, he gets trapped below them and becomes unable to uncrouch. Then just put some enemies like Munchers Mario has to jump over below the one-way gates and some jumps which Mario can only do when having momentum from running, and Mario will not be able to complete the level as soon as he crouches.

[@noahdamoiseaux5606]

There are more than enough ideas on don't crouch levels in this comment section alone

[@bartek3618]

Marek Szczęśniak you could crouch but after crouching you cant jump because then you cant uncrouch

[@MC_Papphead]

Schrödingers' Noteblock This is what I subbed for

[@alemangioni]

Great design, would like to see a level that force to ground pound and cancel to avoid the floor

[@IsabruhMoment]

Woah! Using the ghost house background is super clever! Nice going Ceave!

[@qwqmaple]

SUPER simple. Yeah, to you ceave.

[@darthvader2994]

the way you say "ouching" is adorable

[@tcarrotgaming1639]

2:35. Are we playing Pokémon or Mario Maker?

[@atclem]

Wow...

[@Comicals]

gg man... g g

[@milesrichardson7112]

[@greymipgeometrydashandrobl3901]

LOL

[@stonechestgg3541]

What do u mean?

[@darwinthedog1175]

0:08 that 1-up hitbox

[@misak481]

I don't mean to complain but can't you just ground pound cancel after ground pounding

[@SushiVolcano]

He can still ground pound through stacks of enemies without triggering the ground.

[@JJ-zo7jv]

miskamario exactly. This whole concept is for nought

[@catgamer4263]

I find the whole concept pointless. Why would we ground pound anyway? In the first level, bouncing on the enemies is more interesting. On the second, it's pretty useless.

[@neoxus30]

The "Ceave is out of ideas" statement loses validment once ceave uploads)

[@dkpsyhog]

Jason Jampsh ceave isn’t out of ideas, he was adding more to the “Don’t ____” mechanic list. Don’t ground pound wasn’t on the list before, now it is.

[@OneStxpCloser]

I love when you tell stories in the beginning!

[@trapzone7072]

“We need to help Mario with his health. LETS KILL HIM EVERY TIME HE GROUND POUNDS!”

[@matthewbrown7834]

Mario: moves the camera down one block. Noteblock: TRIGGERED!!!!!!!!

[@zombieguy4444]

Do “Don’t Spin Jump”

[@omegga1162]

ive been watching since thwomp ideas and they keep on getting better :)

[@flowser1846]

We should all make ground pound based levels with the tag NMSG - New Mushroom Security Guards, and we should send them to Ceave. What do you guys think?

[@GraceHartman28]

I would but I don’t have the game :(

[@аааааа-в9ж]

God, this is the best youtube gaming/tutorial channel I've ever seen. *quickly groundpounds on the flashy and attractive subscribe button*

[@jimpie118]

Could you please make a smash bros concept in mario maker thank you very much in advance you make great video's which make my levels more fun and interesting you deserve more love

[@elijahmuller5041]

Seems impossible but knowing ceave, he'll find a way

[@suntanterrace9275]

100 percent agree

[@albond]

Suntan Terrace Really? Even though "video's" is inaccurate?

[@sla83slartacus65]

The puzzle concept was really neat.

[@sethtaros7757]

YAY, SOMETHING ELSE TO ADD TO OUR DANGEROUS LIST OF EVIL

[@yocarter9221]

Shain 3333 thats evil because it doens't help anyone

[@flaminglights7093]

Fire Dude found out the secret

[@sethtaros7757]

ahem, *I* did.

[@flaminglights7093]

lol

[@noahdamoiseaux5606]

As soon as I saw the thumbnail Ithought, "Just make the whole level oit of breakable blocks?!" But these designs are unchaetable.

[@Wrenosaur_]

No wall jumping!!!! Try and find a way!!

[@monti64]

A deadly design definitely helps mario to stop this unhealthy ground pounds! Dying is healthier anyway. But very nice concept with the first design! I really liked it

[@arthilas_]

You forgot the most obvious and simple way to do this: In a castle level, use brick blocks or question blocks with giant Bob-ombs in them as the floor and place them right above the lava. When Mario ground pounds, the block he hits releases its Bob-omb, which goes boom instantly thanks to the lava and should kill Mario. Edit: I don't have my Wii U here to test, but shouldn't one-way gates provide another way to do no-ground-pound-levels? Force Mario to be big by giving him a mushroom and checking for it at the end of the section/level and place one-way gates pointing down one block above the ground. As soon as Mario ground pounds, he should be trapped below the one-way gates, and will unable to clear the level if you put gaps or enemies below them which he can't clear while crouching.

[@CeaveGaming]

That's really clever!

[@greninjude9787]

You continue to amaze me

[@xguide6002]

Creave make a don’t spin jump video

[@blacknwhitemlgdipar2334]

Are u still watching?

[@zfump2132]

I don’t even play Mario maker but I watch all of your videos because I love you

[@noahevans423]

awesome vid man! Edit: what was that click at 3:22?

[@richardgibson8403]

Noah Evans swapping pages?

[@mail068]

He has a vidio about it.

[@noahevans423]

you mean in the script? probably

[@noahevans423]

where?

[@darkspongebob11]

hes clicking something with his mouse on his computer

[@morneilcarfaro9089]

I made a smm2 version of don't ground pound the first idea! It took me hours to try to figure out contraptions to make the enemies go in the little prison, where the muncher placement when you groundpound, and more. Also the Id is vbj-54c-pff

[@NeonWasInUse]

Simpler solution so he can’t ground pound Step 1. Use anything but U template Step 2. Profit

[@Memerath]

Nice stolen comment

[@junemoonie]

Keep Mario healthy! **throws him into the lava and spikes if he ground-pounds**

[@akeemtaylor8375]

5:21

[@TrueBliss_]

Is this really necessary?

[@fleefie]

Yes.

[@spitfire5180]

of course how else will we cure Mario's sore butt?

[@yocarter9221]

laSaladeGelée no.

[@yocarter9221]

Spit TheSkylands mario survived high falls (like on mario oddysey he fell from a ship on the sky and didn't died)he can hold heavy and big things(like on mario 64 he held a giant bomb-omb and bowser)he can swin without drowning (on games like mario bros,the lost levels,mario bros 2,mario bros 3 and the new super mario bros games)how do you think ground pouding will hurt him?

[@atclem]

Doesn't everyone have weaknesses??

[@chrishartke9556]

2:05 xD Als Deutscher zuzuschauen: Erste sahne!!! Btw: Du machst seeehhhr guten content

[@damiendarhk4827]

Ceave is awesome

[@joephilipson6040]

Ceave: "He's basically the only plan" (referring to Mario) Luigi: *Am I a joke to you*

[@couldntbeme8687]

I did that once in real life and my bum hurt for a month 😂 Edit:I couldn't sit too

[@Cheerybelle]

I think it probably helps if you're dummy thicc. The clap of one's ass cheeks could alert any nearby enemy guards, though, but I guess every benefit has its drawbacks.

[@velicitus]

You are one of my fav yters I love your smm videos! Keep up the awesomeness!!

[@phaneronym]

Though you can still ground-pound-cancel.

[@blacknwhitemlgdipar2334]

[@thefakebrowoken2389]

Great Video!

[@spazmmccloud3169]

When you sped up the video while showing the third wave of enemies with bowser jr, I didn't realize and I thought he was moving uber quick

[@rhysdog8600]

design 4: an old fashioned theme that doesn't allow ground pounding

[@contentdeleted1621]

Rhys Kelp Design 5: Put a muncher on a brick, two P-Switches next to the muncher (one also works, but two is safer) (also on bricks, obviously, because otherwise they would fall (Same goes for the muncher), any non-solid enemy that can be put on top of another enemy, put that on top of the muncher, put another BIG enemy (excluding thwomps) (didn't test this with big munchers and piranha plants yet) on top and finally, but bricks DIRECTLY above the big enemy. When you ground-pound the bricks, they go into a bumping animation (which is a sprite, by the way) which also has its collision (and the bottom collision, which is important) and when the topmost enemy of a STACK (not a standalone enemy) comes into contact with a ceiling, it gets off of the stack. This is why the bricks are directly above the big enemy. When you ground-pound the bricks, because of the bumping animation, the big enemy gets pushed off of the stack and this is why the other enemy (not the one inbetween the P-Switches) cannot bei a muncher, Bill Blaster or cannon. The big enemy needs to fall through the enemy that it was on top of.

[@JJJPPP6096]

Amazing video. You are my go to mm tech info

[@nicknackue]

3:29 - 5:29 nobody would even think about looking at the background. If this was a level i didn't know the mechanic of, i'd just think it's some frustrating garbage... still great video tho :)

[@plugginplays8201]

"Let'r try to improve his health" Has enemies fall down from the sky.

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[@ettepetetplayz8582]

Ok the point of these levels are helping mario with his safety, so basicly they do something worse to mario when he ground pounds then when he normally ground pounds. Best idea ever!

[@kyazarshadala8114]

evil semi-solid platforms should be the main antagonist of the ceave gaming lore

[@raimbowdash360]

“And it really starts to threaten his health”

[@the3dluxe53]

I wish that ground pounding activated hidden blocks. You would be able to make neat invisible floors if that were possible.

[@guaposlimecicle3687]

Ceave inventing a Time Machine:“ It‘s actually surprisingly simple“

[@cherryzerd1224]

“Evil spikes”? R.I.P Ouching spikes

[@superoriginalhandle]

An idea. Can you make designs for a level where Mario uses coins for extra time? If not, then maybe make a level where he cannot turn around, jump, or run, and using a speed run course? Maybe Bowser can finally win this time. Or Bowser can just win by blocking him from the hammer/flagpole completely... xD

[@yosquispie159]

I made a Walking Simulator using the don't jump, don't look left, don't run, and don't stop walking contraptions.

[@superoriginalhandle]

Shiny Rainbow Yoshi, thanks for replying! Heh, I hope it’s a great contraption! Now all I need to do is find it..

[@yosquispie159]

Man i like ur videos . keep up

[@kevinzakowicz6983]

how does the scrolling help for the final design? i found nothing that "pointed to the right block" EVEN THOUGH i looked EVERYWHERE in the background!!!!!!!

[@lightningfox0654]

Ground-pound cancel go prrt prrt prrt prrt

[@mrtrollerr]

Even thought I’ve been playing Super Mario Odyssey for a long time, I still accidentally ground pound in the middle of my jumps

[@coomeskid4475]

The cow goes moo, the pig goes oink, and the pow block goes pow

[@pardonourdust_]

A shrinking area where mario has to fight would make a good video

[@Maddenman-lb1ih]

3:23 I heard that mouse click!!

[@krankarvolund7771]

"If Mario ground pounds, the floor disappeared and he finish into lava" So... to prevent him from hurting himself, you killed it? That's a pretty hard medicine :p

[@crystalcampbell1431]

“Not even to think about driving a clown car” Don’t you stand in a clown car?

[@RawlzMovies]

it would funny to put one of these in a level where the semisolid platform is so high that you have to groundpound to gain the extra half square of height.

[@Psycho_Psy]

People trying to make you happy:Hey how are you today Me: thanks Im still a peice of garbage

[@jerri1918]

mario: *groundpounding is bad for health* boswer: okay in order to protect your health, you will die the next time you groundpound

[@Talentlesssss]

"We need to stop Mario from ground-pounding, it's bad for his health!" "How?" "Make it so when he ground-pounds, he dies"

[@smt64productions40]

I think the more Mario goes through all of this, he is gonna become a psychopath

[@andrewbadman1334]

I might combine the first two ideas in one level

[@danannytp8509]

new ceave video? YES

[@Iamverykarpy]

Wait i dont see how the background points to the block you say it does

[@trashbaggamer360]

Number 15, Mario Ground pound lettuce.

[@evilhag7974]

Once I tried ground pounding as a kid. Bad idea.
