Mario Maker - Puzzles by Gueston FINAL (And World Records!)

[@CarlSagan42]

47:20 for probably the most in-depth description I've given of the science work I do! Sorry this video took so long to go up -- I had to reupload it 3 times (4 hours each) due to encoding issues xD

[@tubularbra598]

Worth, long video are the bomb

[@ShinySwalot]

You did get it uploaded in the end, that's what matters °3°

[@lml-mike]

Carl if you struggle with encoding don't hesitate to compile it in RAW and use external software to encode your RAW to your desired quality rather than using the editing software to directly compile it. A lot of tutorial on the web shows that for 30mn+ you actually save more time doing it.

[@Joey-vx2pc]

+Shiny Swalot why do I find you everywhere?! (ook NL ken jou) lol

[@Oakspeaker]

To beat the level quickly, just open it in editor and spawn at the end

[@kalirl6759]

I honestly cant remember how I came across your channel but your videos are really well made and I got hooked.

[@CarlSagan42]

Thanks!

[@giusepperecchia970]

+CarlSagan42 Couldnt agree more. This game got boring for me but you changed that. your more entertaining to me then if i played it myself.

[@apophis7760]

I love it when you talk nerdy to me. I love science and video games so this channel is perfect. keep kicking ass!

[@CarlSagan42]

\o/ :D

[@delta3244]

Year late, but this is perfect for me too! I'm a physics person, but I'll take any science.

[@travisheck5979]

CARL IN RIGHT CORNER?!? everything I thought I knew about life is deystroyed

[@Mixa_Lv]

14:19 Holy shit that was awesome how all the items flew into their places at the same time. The extra shellmet was bumped into the corner, pow was set under the door, and the key made a golden ratio type of arc to unlock it. That was one of the most beautiful endings to a speedrun I've ever seen.

[@michelleh.5225]

Hell, yeah, it was! 😀

[@MrGDCuberandomness]

:D yea

[@lekevka5037]

yep.Carl halfed the previous WR

[@VultureCulture]

Your videos just keep getting better and better. My favorite channel on youtube right now! Thank you

[@blujay1608]

I really loved your short science lesson at the end! Very fascinating! I wish you'd incorporate that as a new, final segment. I really enjoy hearing you think aloud about how to solve the puzzle too, so maybe just a random science story at the end of each video?

[@CarlSagan42]

Haha thanks, maybe I will start doing that. I did a recent one on antibacterial resistance that'll make it into a new video soon here.

[@blujay1608]

I can't wait! :D

[@crossbreedpriscilla8966]

The CarlSagan stream experience: Chat: "give us science or give us death!" Carl: "farts can kill a man."

[@CodexDan]

The world records make your videos twice as good. Love it

[@suntzu6122]

love your videos man. always a nice way to relax! your editing is amazing btw! My fav videos are the expert ones where you use only the good bits!

[@InfernosReaper]

Solid video as always & I loved the bonus content at the end. I did not know that field had that sort of research going on with it. Hopefully it'll yield some great results in testing.

[@FlameraidingV2]

I don't play Super Mario Maker personally, but you are probably one of the most interesting channels to watch. I hope you continue to keep posting videos.

[@Garryl367]

Loving the science at the end. It's a nice change of palate, like a delicious desert after a magnificent Mario meal.

[@WilliumBobCole]

aaaand with that I'm up to date on all of your mario maker videos... Man I wish I could erase my memory and go back and do it all again, if I could afford a WiiU I would make my own levels but that will proooobably never happen so I have to make do with watching, and you are by far the best provider of mario maker videos. There's a lot of good players, but some play mostly garbage levels, some skip too easily or never at all, and a whole lot of them just rage all the time, which isn't very relaxing to watch. Even when you get frustrated with a level, it's all in good fun, you're just super chill and remind me a lot of some of my best friends. Much love

[@CarlSagan42]

Thanks so much, glad you enjoy the videos :D Yeah I don't understand why people play games if they aren't having fun xD

[@WilliumBobCole]

CarlSagan42 Thanks for the response, I won't even dignify the troll with a response, but yeah I agree, that's literally what I tell friends when they rage at games, LoL, Herathstone, CS:GO, if it makes you that angry, it can't be fun surely, why not do something else, yknow... I'd like to tune into your livestreams, but I don't tend to watch streams as I like my content on demand, and also the time zone difference, but I love how your videos are edited to show just the right amount of deaths:progress. I also like the longer videos, but they're more of a commitment for when I know I don't have to be anywhere. I think my mate will be getting mario maker soon (after I showed him a couple of your videos XD ), so hopefully I can go round enough to make some decent levels. I will probably suck ass at the kaizo stuff, but who knows, I would love to submit a level to the blind race one day. Probably try my hand at making puzzle levels too, I am quite happy with my portal 2 puzzle designs, but I think I would mostly like to make plain old platforming levels, combining the elements in such a way as to create interesting new mechanics, have got a lot of inspiration from watching some of the more creative levels in your videos, can't wait to play. Peace! =D

[@WilliumBobCole]

Seth Kauffman just flagged the troll as abuse so his comments shouldn't show up now, just leaving a reply to you to make it clearer that your comment isn't directed at me or carl, hopefully save you some negative replies =]

[@TheGauges420]

+A Hater I weigh 140 and am all muscle. but you can think whatever it is you'd like. the thing about me is, I don't mind arguing with a troll, because I can easily outwit you and tear you down with your own words, because that's what genius minds do. so keep coming back for more, I want you to.

[@Saanail]

I love what you do Carl, the science I mean. Patiently I wait, while watching your videos, for you to talk about your job -- so I can smile knowing about those of you out there working on life's hidden problems.

[@PhatsMahoney88]

Gotta love waking up bright and early to a new Carl vid.

[@firesickle]

One day in the future, CarlSagan42's work will lead to a Tree of Knowledge that instantly gives children all of the information of their ancestors through plant-virus-dna-altering-apple-deliciousness. He'll still only be remembered for his mad Mario skills tho.

[@ethic1637]

firesickle well if he does what you said no. but his online fan base will know him for that and other things

[@Braxeo]

38:26 Your jumping was perfectly in sync with the music!

[@lilyunderscore9568]

Re-Exo and the damage effect lol

[@Wc3ProElimZ]

I really like when you show the world record runs. Keep it up!

[@nathanfarlow6821]

I love seeing the world record runs after you solve the level. I don't even play the game xD keep it up!

[@jackporter6273]

Carl your the most amazing guy! I love your videos, and just love your commentary!!! Your enthusiasm in your work and this game is amazing! Keep up the wicked work!

[@CarlSagan42]

wahoo!

[@chazbunce4145]

you got me into gdq with your one comment during a video so thanks, I've enjoyed all the playthroughs you've done, xb1 player but nice to see the classics I grew up with revamped in cool/awesome ways! stay away from the spaghetti! :)

[@kennaaye8596]

Hey Carl, love your vids, you a very very good gamer! Loved your 3 minute summary of what you do. I am an MRI Technologist and I have my 3 minute physics explanation as to how MRI works down pat as well lol. Kudos to you and your work, change the world man!

[@wyattf.3837]

I always fall asleep during your videos it basicly the only way to get me to nap

[@Vidjaj]

after watching mecha bowzilla, i just continued watching shit from your channel, suddenly 3 hours past, thanks for easy watchable content, and keep up the good work

[@CarlSagan42]

Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching! :D

[@lil_vault_boy]

dattyo Jesus christ I just realized this is happening to me

[@dezistam]

Haha, that's also the video that got me hooked.

[@chaos_omega]

Off-brand Trihex... Damn, that's cold.

[@SmashTom]

Great video! I liked the science stuff at the end too :D

[@winxclubrules22]

i really loved that science lesson just cause it was so interesting and not boring at all thanks for the lesson!! Also i love your videos you are really funny :3

[@CarlSagan42]

Thanks! :3

[@SomanshSPJHPNU]

Having an addiction like Carl videos where each one averages an hour long is deadly

[@isabela073]

I really like watching your world records! You're the fastest I've ever seen.

[@MultiHawk0]

I saw that sneaky edit you did there at 18:38 you can't fool me! But that was a really smart really smart way of handling that problem. I tip my hat at you sir. It could have been better but it wasn't meant to hide the edit so I'm going to let this one slide.

[@MultiHawk0]

+G33K unless the glitch caused the the p-switch door to disappear and then reappear all while the p-switch music is still playing then I was mistaken but I do not believe that to be the case.

[@MultiHawk0]

+G33K and I don't believe we are talking about the same spot in the video I was talking about a spot during the water level.

[@peterisbb]

I feel like the level at 36:20 was intended to be solved by doing the shell thing a second time and just moving the pow into it's course towards the muncher. Definitely not faster but possibly the intended.

[@moxieswaygan]

You've gotten so much better at editing these.

[@XunMoon]

You're amazing Carl! I wish you the best on youtube. I remember when you had 10,000 like a few weeks ago. I have 1600 subs and barely get any views. I'm honestly jealous of you

[@InfernosReaper]

(insert motivational speech here)

[@Leon024]

Well a separate solution for the wiggler level could be to have a setup where the POW block is where you out the spring. I don't think koopa shells die when they hit the POW. Well that's still more time wasting, but that's what I thought of

[@GamingCubex]

At 2:30 the fire shooting thingies are called Burners :)

[@TheGauges420]

he was talking about the wind-up bombs.

[@GamingCubex]

Seth Kauffman No, he was talking about the fire-shooters. He literally says that.

[@SgtKOnyx]

+Seth Kauffman not unless you're taking about a different video

[@Gameboi834]

+Seth Kauffman Everyone knows that those are called Bob-Ombs. He says Bob-Omb in the video.

[@daneyal123]

Hell yeah! I love when you upload!

[@___jd]

"what is that wiggler doing man, he's going on a journey" lmao

[@naziwalrus1059]

@20:22 😂😂😂😂😂 Carl your awesome LMAO that reaction

[@GhostKeep3r]

Yay Carl posted another video! Time to get some popcorn.

[@Sianistic]

for the level at 37:00 wouldn't it be plausible to throw the pow so it hits in the handful of frames where the koppa transfers from where it starts to the platform just below it on its way towards the blue platform?

[@ivaldi13]

Question for Hot Sauce Fishin' Cheeps: What's in that block on the left? To open it, can you wear a shellmet, use a door to get another, bounce it on your head as you climb the left vine, slide into that alcove in the upper-left corner, catch the formerly bouncing shell, drop, and kick it left as you pass the block?

[@with15]

On the map 'Room: Motivation Station'' by Gueston. You can save some time when you need to kill the black plant with the POW without killing the koopa The trick is = use the POW when the koopa fall off the little gap before the blue skulls That's a pretty close window but i'm sure you can do it ;)

[@avalon100000]

I never get to catch your livestreams so I get all my carl entertainment from yt :3 I love how entertaining you are and how you mix it with some science every now and then. Random question, do you still have the WR in all of Gueston's levels or has someone beaten em? If so, can you go back and beat em again? :D

[@CarlSagan42]

I still have most of them actually, but "Cris" and "Harry" like to try to take all the puzzle WRs after I've gotten them I notice :P All the ones I end up spending 1+ hour on haven't been beaten yet.

[@avnir8966]

12:17 the turn block turned just in time to save Carl lol!

[@SnailMan63]

My brain exploded when he was talking about the science stuffs

[@knighty0220]

I freakin' LOVE THESE VIDEOS

[@naziwalrus1059]

thanks for the lesson at the end Carl 😎

[@SuperNikio2]

Before you get the green screen you could use an overlay and put your facecam on it. That way it wouldn't block anything.

[@trumpeter811]

All carl had to do for the puzzle at 35:00 was put the pow on that lower level, kick the koopa shell and bam done. The koopa doesnt die if its moving when it itself hits the POW block

[@CarlSagan42]

I think it does actually kill the shell, but only if the shell is on the ground. So, your setup would work, because the shell will go over the ledge and be in the air for a little bit. If it hits the POW during that time, it'll work.

[@ehx3419]

47:02 Are you sure that saves more time than going through the P-door (thus not having to wait for the tape to go down)?

[@ChiragBharadwajYT]

Am Indian-American, can confirm that Indian food is indeed f***-ing good. :) BTW, love your streams, +CarlSagan42! Inspired me to pick up Mario Maker and try it out for myself.

[@ahyes5842]

I don't skip ads for your videos...anymore.

[@mikakataja5783]

How would it affect the time if instead of the koopakid route, you'd use the door you stand on 46:02? Is it just alternative route for situation like at 45:55, or just a trap?

[@CarlSagan42]

It's slightly further away, but the goal tape hits you faster. Overall it seems just barely slower.

[@LucasJaluL]

Yeaaaahhhh, nice vídeo man!

[@ggplayspc2173]

On the sm3 level there is a side ways spring in the top right which you could use instead of just stopping the shell

[@lazer_4]

I remember when I was with you when you had 3,000 subs! 😪😪 they grow up so fast😪😪

[@CarlSagan42]

hehehehe

[@Kwizii]

I don't think you're so bad at puzzle levels! :D You're about the same level as me actually :D

[@glitch1299]

In HMT 2 wouldn't have been quicker to go out the P-Switch door? or was the boo there to troll?

[@Leon024]

*15 minutes in* "Yeah we've got time for another one"

[@MarkBlease]

carl the highlights level near the end is there a strat to get into the p switch door on top of level it looks like it goes to the end...can you push the chomper up into the pow block with the shell/p switch?

[@Avrysatos]

Oldest video of Carl's ive been recommended. Wow that first level. What a cheep trick.

[@apolo170imluciC]

Carl you and you're video making is fucking awesome bro.

[@MrRyanroberson1]

37:30 place the small koopa shell on the fall-away platform beneath the door just to the left of where he walks, maybe that'll be something useful? access to that door? [is it possible to do that from a shell?]

[@captainredbeard261]

You asked at some point during the first level but I'm pretty sure the flame shooty things are called burners. I actually thought munchers were called footshears for a long time though, so take that for what it's worth.

[@randomname8044]

Instead of getting the platform in motivation station you can make the shell hit the spring midair and save time.

[@GumiBaer]

At like a boos, I guess to save time you... Damage BOOSted.

[@ilovepotatoes6232]

Since you posted that I think that you'll need an ego BOOSt

[@phosphatepod]

We need to BOOSt our society to be good and stop these BOOS jokes.

[@connfdm]

boooooooo

[@Arvizu1010]

47:11 I kinda think that you can get less time if you go for the P-Door. Did you try that?

[@phosphatepod]

Gold Mario has the sm64 theme that happens when you get a powerup. When you get Starman

[@samms9403]

Great videos, keep the good work fam :^)

[@DanG88]

Am i the only person that likes SMB 3 best? I mean everything about that game is awesome. Music, Power ups, the art of the game and even the enemies.

[@CarlSagan42]

I really enjoy it for sure! Which is my favorite varies each week :P

[@littlegameMASTER]

46:39 hey carl, why didnt you use the p switch door? or was that harder to get

[@CarlSagan42]

You still have to hit the bottom POW I believe, so it's a shorter path to the right door than left to the p-door once you're on top of the level. The level might end faster hitting the p-door though actually, since you do have to wait a sec when you use the bottom one. Maybe it could be faster.

[@littlegameMASTER]

if you could get the P Switch to land on the right ledge after kicking it up to hit the vine then maybe?

[@Toxicflu]

Love the puzzles, bring in more science. Its facinating!

[@davigure1826]

@37:42 cant you use the bomb on the right to destroy the wall?

[@jeremycrampton8781]

on HMT2 Versus Jr. there was that p switch door at the top that looks like it could take you to the end also, wouldn't that be a bit faster then hitting the pows?

[@timequarterly]

You're the man Carl!

[@Gradeus]

Started doing star cluster photometry for summer research today, really neat stuff Yeah science c:

[@CarlSagan42]

Sounds neat! How does it work?

[@Gradeus]

+CarlSagan42 Going through Unix on a Mac terminal, we load PyRAF and ds9 to look at telescope images of star clusters in various wavelength filters. We can pick out coordinates for certain stars we're interested in and run a photometric analysis on them, which gives us a bunch of info about intensity/brightness etc. Our professor already did a bunch of the image processing and corrections beforehand. Not as real-world relevant as other things but it's been holding my interest for a while which is good :)

[@TimmyScottnoise]

"what is your part in the process?" eye candy...my part is to be eye candy.

[@prommac2]

I feel like the SMW art style is so much more appealing to the eye than the New SMB art style.

[@Seawolf.Gaming]

prommac2 it is. But it's all dependent on how the level is made

[@connfdm]

i've always preferred SMB3, the p-switch bricks in SMW and NSMB look really bad imo

[@SeriousCatGaming]

these are so great when high jesus ive watched 3 hours today

[@gagawuv2962]

That cheese at 14:20 sure was sharp. I mean extra sharp cheese.

[@roryookane]

Yes, I do see another, probably faster, way to solve “Room: Motivation Station”. (At 37:23, you ask for a faster strategy than the one you used.) Simply throw the POW block the same moment the Red Koopa falls off that one-block high ledge. That will allow the Koopa to survive while killing the Muncher blocking the way to the blocks on the right. The POW should hit a surface in the instant while the Koopa is in the air. It probably takes good timing, but should be doable. I think it would be faster than your WR strat too. You almost hit on this method at 31:45 when you said “YOLO strats” , but you forgot about it afterwards for some reason.

[@CarlSagan42]

Ahh that should work! But I don't see how it would save time, since the Koopa frees the POW block and hits it basically at the same time using the WR strat.

[@roryookane]

Sorry, you’re right - it wouldn’t save time. I lost track of when the POW block becomes reachable.

[@limme2001]

I guess it's faster if you just use the bomb to get to the end (blow up bomb and reset)

[@JoyboyWin]

Carl you should Definitely give Science Lessons at the end of every video you make from now

[@Azarif367]

Hey Carl, cheers from Brazil!!

[@0skaremil]

You were talking about how you love all kinds of food, but have you tasted food from The Fareo Islands or Greenland, that shit is nasty! No offense :) Oh and btw you are awesome, i wish more streamers/youtubers would be chill about where their facecam were. :D

[@CarlSagan42]

:D

[@NoahRigden]

Carl. I love you...

[@CarlSagan42]

[@NoahRigden]

Pornmaggot I already proposed. He rejected me ;-;

[@50shadesoframa76]

Rekt bb

[@jsk8et]

Motivation Station: can you stop the big shell on the right side after smashing thru the bottom and take it up to the blocks at the key door?

[@jsk8et]

Nevermind. No room to do it.

[@mdudegamer]

I have to wonder whether it'd be possible to break those blocks in Motivation Station with the Bomb... I don't know if it would be faster, but theoretically one could hit it while partially still on the other side of the gate, grab it, then set it at the blocks?

[@Rembrall]

For motivation station - is it possible to use the bomb for anything other than it's original purpose you used it for?

[@tj12711]

You should totally do warm ups at the beginning of streams where you talk science.

[@david3900snake]

love the science lessons man.

[@kiwiscrotum]

The level you got the world record on at 47:18 can you try going in the p-switch door at the top of the screen to maybe make it faster. Mostly because when you go through a door the flag spawns at the top of the goalposts and that's where the p-switch door is

[@poffpoff1]

Couldn't you have skipped the spring completely and put the POW at such distance from the ledge that the shell hit it in mid air (in between the shell-spawn level and the blue-platform level)... About where you put the spring for it to bounce... ? Or would that be to tight for the shell to count as midair?

[@brandonpayne5215]

simpler way to do the level with the giant koopa. use the small koopa's shell to break the blocks

[@suntzu6122]

14:17 WHAT DID YOU DOOOOOO LOLOL

[@MegaJotie]

Man don't explain on youtube how you're going to fight the viruses, they might be watching.

[@CarlSagan42]

O_O

[@abstrct84]

CarlSagan42: Great at da science, and da maro...

[@Jumpyluff]

Please set all of your videos to private so I can go to sleep! D:

[@Armokogames]

Jumpyluff i feel you

[@RemerkulTheFlyingCow]

I think you (Might) be able to go faster on the last level if you use the P-Switch door instead of the Key door, considering you get to the top and the level will finish instantly.

[@ShayLC]

I was watching this and no joke got an ad for spaghetti
