Super Mario Bros. Wonder Custom Level - "The Pipe Spike Tribe"

Now that the Fushigi level editor has started to become somewhat usable, I decided to try to get used to it by making a custom Super Mario Bros. Wonder level with it.
I'm quite happy with how this one turned out, it's certainly much better than my first Wonder level. Some of the ideas are definitely still more of a proof of concept of how certain Wonder elements work than fully polished and integrated segments, but for the most part the level's design is pretty cohesive.

[@YoonsrDynamix]

So glad that many elements in this game actually interact with each other in a predictable manner. I can't wait for more levels to build on them further!

[@Rimea]

yeah that's easily my favourite thing about making custom Super Mario Bros. Wonder levels, there is an almost Mario Maker-like interactivity between most objects which is not at all how it works for custom mechanic combinations in previous 2D Mario games I've modded

[@testsnake]

​@@Rimea with how many ideas the team had for this game, I wonder if every element interacted with every other element at some point during development, or if the developers decided to make everything interact because it would be easier to test ideas. It feels very unlike Nintendo for them to put in this extra work lol.

[@phabrick8r21]

Anyone else predicting a potential DLC addon like what we got with Challenge Packs for NSMB2?

[@Mattened]

@@phabrick8r21 I hope we get a LuigiU-style harder levels DLC

[@SiczakHT]

@@testsnake I think it's a little bit of everything. They had a lot of time to dedicate work to the mechanics, and on the other hand they needed to make the mechanics work like this since it was much easier to make combined wonder flower levels like eternal wonder.

[@Cyberguy64]

This has me DYING for a Super Mario Maker 3. So many fun interactions!

[@theperfecttroller]

smm3 is probably already in production so i wouldn't get my hopes up ;(

[@KiraraEnjoyer]

[@Colinjo6VEVO]

Sucks that wether or not Mario Wonder’s making it to SMM3, we are not seeing the Wonder Effects AT ALL. Unless they just stick with Transformation-Based Wonder’s there’s just too much to work around.

[@userhere1190]

This looks like an actual SMBW level. Congrats!

[@SalmonsAnimations]

I've said this before and ill say it again, I LOVE how they got rid of the timer, its a lot more laid back and les stressful

[@micahfurlow2624]

Historically, Mario's timers were long enough to the point where they would never actually be a real danger in 90% of levels, it was moreso there as a reason to move forward. Now that its gone, there's now more of a reason to thoroughly explore levels and more of a reason to hide more well hidden secrets. (and there are a few really really hard to find wonder seeds and hidden exits)

[@concerningindividual629]

@@micahfurlow2624I'm honestly only sort of sure that the reason they kept timers for so long was as an anti-softlock, and because some levels in some games have the timer as a sort of important part of the level

[@MoonriseMystery]

Very impressive! I like how you found preexisting talking flower dialogue to fit the situation.

[@Rhyme_Time]

Your understanding of Mario level design is really impressive to me. Especially with all these new mechanics!

[@polyhex]

Another really unique mix of objects & enemies! Curious to know roughly how much of this was done with Fushigi VS the file-editing method. Neat that you figured out talking flowers, too!

[@Rimea]

I did as much with Fushigi as I could, the only stuff I did with text editing was: - grouping links in the correct order (Fushigi currently just adds them in order of when they were created, but they need to be grouped by object and type for them to actually work) - creating a simultaneousgroup for the coin circle towards the start of the level - editing area parameters and global links

[@Dogestruction]

hi polyhex

[@toad4426]

Hi Polyhex, I love Find Everything and Super doomspire keep up the good work.

[@PortalPlaya]

Polyhex???? I love your roblox games please add a level 4 ability perk in super bomb survival

[@DualityStrikes]

is that poly hecks super bomb survival??? whoa,,,

[@MizunoKetsuban]

Really fun design concepts, the countdown lifts are definitely one of the more fascinating course elements in their utility. I love the flower falling from the sky into the abyss. That one's got a story to tell for sure.

[@NIMPAK1]

This is insanely impressive especially for a game that isn't even that old yet. Major props to the people working diligently on Fushigi too, their progress has been blazing fast. One level concept I think could be interesting is to have different paths accessible by using certain badges. Like a timed switch path that requires the jet run badge, but using it makes the level harder. Like you could have spike walls that aren't much of a threat to the player normally that become major obstacles with the jet run badge. Admittedly it's a pretty Un-Nintendo-y thing to do, but I feel like it's in the spirit of Mario Wonder to try some out-there concepts.

[@GDColon]

Incredible level design!! If this was in the game it would be one of my favorite levels, every element interacts with one another so perfectly

[@Rimea]

thanks!

[@PiggyMccool_XD]

I cannot agree more

[@knatred1489]

gd colon?

[@Gardengap]

GD Colon, wow

[@CyanPlushCaptain]

i looove gd colo- *gets shot*

[@monsieurliquorice]

The design you put into this is incredible! I noticed how the start of the level introduced the spikes, then a break, then it introduced the flip platforms with then became a mix of both to create the main challenge. Then the wonder seed took that concept and essentially took away your easy escape, jumping. AMAZING LEVEL!

[@poyopowerplant]

This is just about the chillest 5 star difficulty level ever! Great work!

[@thegreatautismo224]

1:18 The fact that these platforms are placed just right so the spike ball breaks all the brick blocks is great

[@CK_123]

this feels like it could be an actual level. good job!

[@KyleJamieson]

The background pipe section was perfect! Not to mention you brought in talking flowers that fit in smoothly. I wonder, are there un-used flowers that are still in the games files that have voice lines and speech bubbles already coded in?

[@Rimea]

There might be some unused voice lines sure, but currently talking flowers are completely undocumented, which made finding ones for this level quite annoying

[@adampozzobon5193]

2:15 I just have to congratulate you on the comedic timing there, I was NOT expecting a custom level to have this good of a gag.

[@WigglerM2]

The Wonder Modding community has already managed to edit levels. I'm excited for the future, if they can already do this less than 2 months after it has come out!

[@Justcommentinhere]

3:13 I LOVE how this part is designed!! Really great work. Fells like actuall wonder level!

[@okay510]

This is really good! I like how the level design is similar to your NSMBU/WII style, as opposed to how Nintendo designed Wonder. I personally much prefer the more mechanic focussed style

[@darthtroller]

I totally agree, Wonder deserves its own "Lost Levels" or "NSLU" with mechanic focused levels

[@claw25533]

lots of wonder levels having level-specific gimmicks really disappointed me. That stuff should be reserved for the wonder flower only

[@darthtroller]

@@claw25533 what are you referring to with level specific gimmicks? Is it the fact that one thing appears in a certain level based around it and pretty much doesn't reappear for the rest of the game?

[@claw25533]

@@darthtroller yeah. the count down blocks seemed pretty interesting but they were for that level only. same for quite a few other things, like the different bird enemies. there could've been some unique interactions

[@darthtroller]

@qwrt271 yeah, one thing I liked about NSMBU is how it took many NSMBW elements from different levels and crossed them together, Wonder deserves a "lost levels" where they do that same stuff, a deeper exploration of the existing mechanics with a few more added just like SMG2 did for SMG1

[@AlexDayz]

Had never even considered combining the Goomba transformation’s limited jump with the timed platforms. Smart, unique, and creative

[@epicantonio08idk38]

I love how the pipe for the background section is placed on the far right to allow the background section to spawn more Goombas to jump over!

[@JacredHart]

The prescence of the talking flowers in this level made me think. If someone makes a full-length adventure (or decent-length) Mario Wonder mod, I hope they have different colored/shaped Talking Flowers with different voices. Not only would this allow them to have a reason for why these flowers don't sound the same as the basegame ones (by them looking like a different variety), it would add a bit of worldbuilding in the form of "different regions have different kinds of talking flowers with different shapes/colors/voices". Plus it means they'd be able to put more talking flowers without having to repeat basegame lines ad infinitum. Of course, for shorter experiences such as only-one-or-a-few-levels mods, the basegame has enough voicelines to not get stale.

[@Rimea]

I totally agree, in fact I've had the same idea since I first considered modding the game. If I ever make a big Wonder mod I'd love to recruit a voice actor and create my own version of the talking flowers with a unique personality and design.

[@captainkawaii666]

I love how the assets can be mixed in so many different ways to create unique levels

[@ZombieManF]

This level looks great! It feels a bit less "vanilla" than the previous one with the flip blocks, but it also just looks more fun than that level, especially the Wonder Flower transformation.

[@DumpsterFireDev]

Your level design in amazing! Keep up the great work!

[@GGreenHeart]

This level looks great- and I honestly love your use of the talking flowers!

[@PiggyMccool_XD]

[@claw25533]

so excited to see SMBW kaizo levels in particular

[@bjorngmrofficial]

Damn, this level is so incredibly solid, this could've easily been in the base game with some extra polish and no one would bet an eye. I already loved the Countdown platforms in the original level, and they're used so cleverly here. I gotta start making my own custom levels, I cannot wait anymore.

[@supermodderguy4]

Amazing, Rimea!

[@geschnitztekiste4111]

I just love the savannah level theme, it’s such a vibe aesthetically and musically

[@EmperorPenguin1217]

[@edouardmercure3203]

Nice... Looks like a chill yet challenging level. Something more "normal" that I missed from the game.

[@isaiahkepner8078]

This was an amazing level! My favorite part was the talking flower dropping down the pit

[@x-man2565]

(2:15) I love it when the Talking Flowers Scream for no reason.

[@CrispyToast]

Great level design!

[@0SkySniper]

Awesome second level!

[@B0ssguy]

there were so many unique mechanics made for this game that only got a single use, we NEED a mario maker 3 with a wonder style because there are so many combinations of thing like your 2 levels that could make awesome levels for everyone to play. this level in particular is so cool because it really uses smart level design and their 4 step design philosophy to the fullest

[@gregs4677]

WHY IS THIS SO GOOD

[@Liverpool1922]

Can’t wait to see more

[@glitchy_weasel]

The level design is superb! Could totally pass for an actual Nintendo-made level.

[@nexterstopproductions637]

Brilliantly level!

[@FloeAnimations]

Ooooh new custom level dropped!

[@BanzayIkoyama]

This level follows the flow of Wonder and the Nintendo level design philosophy really well. Neato. Even if some of the jumps seem a bit on the awkward side here and there and I think there might have been one spot where you cannot progress without a power up. But plenty are scattered around that you probably should have enough generally. Edit: I did realize I was wrong about the power up bit after watching the follow up video. The fact that piranha plants go back in the pipes just completely slipped my mind while writing that comment.

[@immortalbookworm3511]

Super interesting concept

[@Lightnang_]

Dang that background, and those graphics. So amazing

[@Rimea]

those are the only things I didn't edit though haha

[@wantedbird55srandomchannel28]

This feels like it would perfectly fit in the game.

[@polypore64]

reskinning rolla koopas and pokeys to ice skating koopas and snow pokeys was genius and really makes this level feel so much more original awesome!!

[@brontegoodman6238]

Wrong video?

[@Liamonade-8357]

Just a very smart level design, Nintendo needs to hire you

[@bepis_real]

Another well made custom level Rimea! If I may, I’d say some parts of the level could be spaced out a bit farther, some screens can feel a bit cramped- especially in Elephant form. All in all, keep up the good work!

[@robocem256]

Finally, he has the level editor

[@FruityKoala]

This is amazing! I noticed you used the Nintendo level-designing template and you did a great job at it. Could honestly be mistaken as a real level in the game from Jintendo

[@thetommeister4121]

That second 10-flower coin was really creative

[@Rickby]

I hope Mario Maker 3 has Wonder’s theme in it, along with ALL the characters (besides yoshi and nabbit)

[@dragonflame4234]

Making the goombas slowly flood up into the spike pit in the background before you even get to the pipe to get there was genius

[@Liverpool1922]

Awesome level good job

[@Getlucky12]

Great level!

[@1UPdudes]

This is fantastic. I am kinda looking forward to seeing if people will create levels that focus around Yoshi and their flutter powers. Same for Nabbit and their hazard immunities.

[@ThatGuyVelvety]

Can’t wait to see “Super Mario Bros. Wonderer” (like NewerSMBW)

[@Saltymangosucks]

Really feels like a main level, amazing!

[@Saltymangosucks]

It would be sick if someone made a level that revolves around the Jewel Blocks, The Rolling Balls, and the Outmaways (Mostly I just want to see an Underground level)

[@gauthiervergison6332]

The falling flower got me good 😂

[@method9706]

the fact this looks like a level nintendo wouldve included is amazing

[@Mijzelffan]

Funny how in the developer interview for this game they said they wanted to deliver something that mario maker couldn't, yet here the fans are proving that this game is as mario maker-able as any other mario game

[@derpaboopderp1286]

[@taylorbrewing]

This is AMAZING

I wish I had a modded switch so I could play this amazing level

[@OwenTheNerd05]

This is so cool

[@cartercatcc]

If mario wonder had a sequel this would be a level in the game

[@thepuppetmarionette6713]

This feels like something in Mario wonder

[@ninjutik]

Oh yeah this game would fit so well as a mario maker, you could even give the flowers their own lines

[@thatoneguy1821]

Fun idea. I would have liked to see countdown platforms used in a more challenging way. The goomba idea is a good usage. Otherwise, it didn’t feel like you were ever in danger of them reaching zero, even with just basic platforming skills. Lot of opportunities to do more with that, esp with the spike ball guys

[@LadiIluyomade-pf6qe]

My brain hurts just from watching those spike balls roll uphill😂

[@Pandex308]

I 100% Wonder and, i HOPE Smm3 reveals soon with a Wonder style! Also, i guess that you could pick the Wonder effect in a list of all (or at least the best) Wonder effects, would be awesome!

[@d_dstroyer0445]

I really like this level from a gameplay design standpoint, but there are too many holes for it to be a savana. It might sound like a stupid complaint, but mario wonder really applies logic to its level design to fit its setting, that's why most of the levels where you fall are in world 2 since it's a mountain you're climbing.

[@RandomGS]

if i never played mario wonder and you told me this is a level in the game i'd believe you

[@pepearown4968]

The number lifts are a little too niche for Mario Maker.

[@Faya_Bits]

It's almost like Nintendo knew modding was already a thing so they made this easier to do

[@Mangoesssss]

I think that this level would fit nicely in the actual game.

[@95_firetrucks]

This looks very nice also maybe you can make a special world custom level
