Pretty funny that Mario tries to turn Thwomp into a stone, but fails at it since Thwomps are already living stones.

Mario shouldn’t have such a horrific ability, but this opens so many windows to platforming options… 😂

[@damonlam9145]

Ironically the ability is a double edged sword, it can be be very powerful when used wisely, but if you are not careful it could bite you in the butt.

[@MUSA_SMSW_OFFICAL]

According to Luigi’s power this isn’t so bad!

Nintendo Should Do a Game With Level Up! It Could Be The Best Game. EVER!

[@renanrenan8261]

What I think is cool about Level Up's animations is the grass effect that is placed on the ground, but one thing that Nintendo should have added, I realized that Level Up cares about these small details, after all, even though they are small, they make a big difference when we watch :)

[@thisnameisbad3609]

Actually don't think Nintendo should have added grass, because the ground is BRICKS.

[@OmarTSV]

Turning everything you touch into stone is more of a curse than an ability. I was scared that he was going to end up turning one of his friends into stone at the end...

[@SpectrumSwordtails]

He probably already did. I mean I wouldn't exactly call Waluigi a friend, more like a rival of him and his brother Luigi. But still, Waluigi was probably the first thing Mario turned to stone, and considering his attitude the whole vid, Mario didn't even realize what he had done yet.

[@tinacrummett294]

Plus he already turned the table on himself with a deadly stone inducing facepalm I mean come on Thought if he threw a stone Koopa shell at two birds and killed em he would literally kill 2 birds with one stone

Almost sounds like another God Mode Luigi thing when you put it like that.

This was very well thought through, it's like you designed how a Mario game would work with this mechanic and then put Mario through it. I really felt like I was learning how a game like this would work as he kept making mistakes! The facepalm turning himself to stone was great. And the floating key/door part got me, smart idea Mario!

[@LevelUPAnimations]

Goomzilla long time no see! I had a bunch of other ideas I didn't get to add in as well so I wanna do another sometime, maybe with gold.

[@goomzilla]

​@@LevelUPAnimations Awesome! I wonder what you'd do with gold that works differently from stone, maybe round objects would get collected as coins, or its shininess is useful. Keep up the creative videos!

[@IaeyanElyuex]

I knew he'd facepalm. As soon as I saw this, I figured "One of these deaths will be from self-contact, and because mistakes are made in these videos, it will likely be a facepalm.". Always a treat when these videos come out.
