Super Mario Bros. Wonder Custom Level - "Spiny Spires"

[@GDColon]

Always blown away by how good of a level designer you are. Making a level of this length without it starting to feel stale is NOT easy. Gameplay is playful but really clear and it has a super natural difficulty curve. Wish this was in the game fr

[@Rimea]

Thank you!

[@theartificialidiot6276]

Was not expecting to find GD Colon in the comment section, but I 100% agree with this statement

[@quagiscool]

You watch Rimea

[@Tatzuki]

i love gd cologne

[@sitbar1]

True

[@acidic-artsdaniel2148]

This man out here is single-handedly proving why a SMB Wonder Theme in a Super Mario Maker 3 game would work *wonders* and make millions.

[@serenegenerally]

I was thinking they should add that! Imagine how cool that would be!

[@59orJimmy]

Work "wonders"

[@greenpotato8744]

Truly wondrous

[@nakarukatoshi]

I still think that they wanted to release this game before, in order to add it to SMM2... 'cause a "Special editions" section, in plural, for a single game... also, this game is really programmed in a way that allows an easy creation of custom levels tbh

[@Haganeren]

@@nakarukatoshiEven custom wonder seeds event ?

[@Mysterious7352]

I love the talking flower saying “that hit the spot” not referring to being refreshed, but to Mario actually hitting the spot with the spike ball lmao

[@spongebobmusicuhg3420]

Bro that's luigi

[@Newibe]

I guess people don't really care about Luigi...

[@kaochao9545]

W4 w6 w2?

[@Bop208]

Ermmm Actually Thats Luigi Not Mario 👆🤓

[@Supersilly923]

I believe he said "Mario" as many people refer the player character as Mario.

[@coolbread99]

Combining pumpkin blocks with spike balls is an idea with so much potential that gets executed on really well, and the way that spinies get mixed in during the later parts of the level is just genius. This is a DAMN well-chosen entity palette.

[@Newibe]

You do realize that wonder's levels also have a good gimmick palette​@breadandcircuses8127 ALSO DONT YOU DARE SAY “HaVe Yu EVen PlAyed ThAt ManY PlAtforMers??”

[@ZaTimou]

It's still super interesting how much everything can interact with one another Makes me wonder what kind of things they originally had planned for the game

[@gamertypeawesome]

iirc mario maker was originally made as a dev editor for super mario run so that just made me wonder maybe wonders built off of mm2 nsmbu/3d world themes? never modded any switch stuff myself tho so idk they might be completely different under the hood just your average uninformed internet speculation

[@ZaTimou]

@@gamertypeawesome _Interesting_ I guess I'll look into it later if I remember

[@PikaPhantomVG]

​@@gamertypeawesome Wonder runs on a completely different engine than the Maker games, though they could've either been futureproofing for a Maker game that will be in the Wonder engine or for the sake of potential DLC

[@hallm3lbp]

@@PikaPhantomVGit’s neither, the game will just be made using a matrix with damage systems and things like that. Certain object cause damage and certain objects receive damage. It’s all just interacting with one another at that level. It all works because it all uses the same systems.

[@hoemogenic]

makes you WHAT?

[@schwagz124]

Adore that one Talking Flower during the Wonder section, poor guy just vibing on a Pumpkin at the wrong time.

[@itsokthen]

I'm just thinking about how funny the flowers could be in a troll level 🤣🤣 Put in an anti-softlock "rough place huh" "you can do it" lmfao

[@marekdec8605]

Now I want to see a wonder troll level lol

[@Newibe]

And the cheering flowers from that one break stage

[@loganh2735]

RIGHT when I watched your other custom levels! I love the rock formation at 5:10 foreshadowing the seed instead of placing it randomly, overall some very great level design.

[@youyououmf8200]

You really improved in level making ! It's amazing that this level use very well the camera movement and plus, it's not only horizontal !

[@Rimea]

True! Wonder's camera system is very different compared to previous 2D Mario games, so it took me a while to fully understand it, but now that I know how to use it I should be able to make levels that feel much more dynamic.

[@youyououmf8200]

@breadandcircuses8127I loved the ability to hold L or R to move the camera in mario world.

[@eviemaybe]

the part where you go above the tree canopy is so simple yet so impactful. love how dynamic the terrain feels and how all the setups are built. this feels like a hidden four-star difficulty level in pipe rock plateau. great job overall!

[@mostafabalboul3966]

Possibly your best level thus far. Is it bad that I get even more excited when I see these custom Wonder Flower effects than with the vanilla Wonder Flower effects? It's exciting to see how custom level designers use the existing effects in new ways, and yours did not disappoint.

[@brunolike8631]

I love how you created a vertical section on a otherwise horisontal level

[@GGreenHeart]

Great job adhering to the Mario Mindset: finding a cool interaction and really expanding and playing with it! Loved the use of those half-pipe curves, without the level revolving solely around them!

[@funnigoobergoofytube]

When the flower says "Good Luck with this part" yknow its not gonna be good

[@OlmiOP]

My #1 complaint with Mario Wonder has always been that the level design didn't take advantage of all the cool ideas as much as it should have, so videos like this make me really really happy to see :) Really showing how much potential this game has even if they were to make a direct sequel

[@darthtroller]

I wish more of the Wonder effects were like this in the game, most of them felt like introductions to gimmicks, but here the gimmicks are properly developed and put together

[@Eightfold024]

You could've told me this was a level in the game that i missed and i would believe you, I'd love to play this one. Great job.

[@JohnDoe-p1c]

I think a custom airship level is in order. W video btw

[@LilCosmosYT]

Im really amazed by this, especially how you were able to use one feature to make a fun challenging level, using the spike balls to progress through the level as well as dodging them was a smart idea! and i like how you used them in the wonder effect too, you always make me curious about your next video and how you creative you are going to be with them, good work as always!!

[@dipperconte124]

This level is wonderful, not only because it’s more than dev quality, not only because the gimmick of combining pumpkins and spike balls is actually cool and well executed, but also because I love the color palette that resembles an early autumn theme!

[@PixelShiftss]

Yess another autumn level, I loved the aesthetic of this and the pumpkins really add to while also being perfect for the gimmick of this level, well done!

[@mpdacey]

5:14 It can't be a mario wonder level without flower slaughter.

[@Jmg11233]

Btw this level is super good, I always find your custom levels to be entertaining to watch, and there probably really fun to play

[@randomguyontheinternet7940]

I really love the geography and worldbuilding of your levels. Your Mario Wonder levels are a cut above your NSMBU levels, they have so much variety and life. Watching them grow and change, the twists perfectly complementing the environments come together to weave a great story.

[@NathanielIanLewis]

This is for sure your best level yet! I can't wait for your explanation video on this level because there are so many cool details!!

[@0SkySniper]

This is an awesome custom level, I was not expecting that wonder effect! Also the wonder bud things that spawn things like the spike ball chase (3:48) don't seem like forced parts, like you can jump over the spike ball

[@JohnPaul-pw7hp]

It’s so cool how well the spinies and spike balls, work so well with the pumpkins! Also I love Fall themed levels! Great work!

[@glitchy_weasel]

This is incredible! I was already amazed at your previous levels - but the design, coherence, theme, and difficulty of this one makes it phenomenal 🤩

[@AdventureSMBW]

Truly mind-blowing. One of the best levels I have ever seen!

[@TheMoney9999]

I love this level! All the setups you were able to get out of rolling spike balls and spinning Spiny shells were always surprising (the spiny shell interaction on curves displayed at 1:27 especially took me by surprise). This is a super small nitpick/suggestion, but it would have been especially neat if there was a staircase of pumpkins or something at the end of the section starting at 3:50 that you needed to get to before the spike ball to reach a secret so you couldn't just trivialize the section by jumping over the ball. Still, outstanding and extremely dynamic level!

[@bro4ever771]

From the scope and how you evolve the mechanics this feels like a level straight from Donkey Kong Country Returns /Tropical Freeze :D

[@jackg_]

This is amazing, great work. Knowing what it required to make from your previous videos I am impressed!

[@mediaboxc600]

Great design. It's a level that escalates as it progresses using the same elements. The wonder flower is a natural culmination of the spike balls and spinys. Great great work applying the "formula". 🎉🎉

[@peety0792]

I almost thought that said sugary spires 😭💀

[@Shrezin]

I sure do love this [VANILLA LEVEL THAT WAS NOT CREATED BY THE HELP OF ANY MODS], it's a banger as always❤

[@Clone54_]

One again, Incredible level-design. Great work!

[@ignatiousmary8413]

These levels look good for a Mario Wonder DLC!

[@augisterman3685]

I feel like this level just shows off the lighting engine of Mario Wonder. Really nice level!

[@hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

Definitely your best level yet! It's a bit bigger than I expected at first, but that's definitely not a drawback, as I think some of the levels in the base game felt a bit short.

[@mateodumontier9257]

I love how the level is long, I would like to see this kind of length in future 2d mario game

[@Peanut_Flailer]

These levels are amazing! Well done!

[@bobcake8904]

This is amazing! Looks like a ton of fun to play!

[@gauthiervergison6332]

You gotta love the talking flowers placement So clever

[@Ubsje]

Beautiful level man. Reminds me a bit of my NSMBU contest level with the spiky balls and spinies, but Wonder just allows for so many more cool interactions. Gonna see if I can make something too soon now that the editor has been improved more.

[@wollywog42]

Super neat level. As someone who found all of the base game to be entirely too easy, I’d like to play a whole world of your levels

[@Kalus_Heart607]

Every time I see one of these levels, my desire to want to make one too grows stronger hehe. Someday, Nintendo will see this and realize just how grand it’ll be to do for hopefully another Mario Maker

[@handsomeavocado14]

This is awesome! I love the colors

[@ThomasKeller1]

Awesome level design, wouldn't recognize if this would be in-game by Nintendo or not!

[@ExplodingSteve]

What a WONDERFUL level

[@Mouse-bk5rd]

god i love how you used the springs and stuff to make mini-puzzles

[@hoglin7]

Bro this is better than some official levels You got talent🔥🔥

[@PaulFisher]

This is really well done! The only thing I might change is that it seems like the part at 1:11 is a little clunky in terms of timing and speed on the rolling block, since it might not be going fast enough, or it might hit the roof above the pumpkin, or it might land below the pumpkin. I could see getting somewhat stuck there, and becoming frustrated because after figuring out what you have to do in *general*, it demands a certain amount of precision. Giving the player a little more leeway might make that part feel a bit better, and maybe reserving that level of precision for an obstacle later in the course, after the concept has been introduced. Maybe a 10 flower coin? I care so much about that specific point because apart from that, the design on the level is spectacular. It doesn’t get stale, and does a really good job of building up the main mechanic through new twists and interactions.

[@Rimea]

I appreciate the concern, but it's actually really hard *not* to hit the pumpkin with the spikeball, I only hit it going in the opposite direction at first to simulate how a first-time player might approach the section. The spikeball is programmed in such a way that it'll always go back to a consistent amount of speed, and at that speed it's guaranteed tot hit the pumpkin so long as it's bounced when it rolls going to the left.

[@morrisagen822]

Such a great level!

[@catmeowmeowxd]

Really good content!

[@Phi6457]

The level idea was amazing

[@Crimson-BH16]

really cool level. simple but fun! keep it up!

[@supermodderguy4]

Amazing, Rimea!

[@KLGB76]

I don’t know why but I was expecting the Wonder Flower to be in the room at 2:00 .

[@mangos-1]

I completely forgot this game existed! Ill have to play it again

[@AshleyKristineTV]

This could be some sort of secret level in the Mines.

[@wantedasylum1091]

This is definitely worthy of a dlc level.

[@Octobeann]

1:28 can't wait to see shells doing this nonstop in mario maker 3

[@luigitime202]

[@shalaSHASKA09mm]

that was such a long and rich level!

[@jc___underscore___]

I almost feel as if this should have the theme be the one in the Pumpkin Party level (Upshroom Downshroom

[@jessetime159gaming]

I saw the three stars before the level starts. It's a bit subtle, but I saw a glimpse of them by playing this video in slow motion. This level is not 3 stars, this is 4 stars, due to the constant threat of the spike balls and Spinies. Level design's really good, though. 😊

[@fridaynightfunkinfan5627]

5:16 RIP that talking flower. Anyway, the savannah music's another one of my favorites from this game. It reminds me of a safari, with whatever instrument plays the main melody. The Wonder music you chose also reminds me of one of those endless tunnel-like sequences, where every circle reveals another circle inside of it, this time with pastel rainbow colors. Of course I think the music slaps, but do you get what I mean with that description?

[@sumguyiguess7697]

5:16 RIP talking flower

[@Kirby_Blue_Game]

Nice Level

[@jayandjlps]

Very cool. I've been working on a similar level using some of the same concepts

[@perrytheplatypus4620]

Damn Rimea, you really like savannas. But I don't blame ya. Hakuna matata yfm?

[@Dirtblokje154]

would have been cool to see this level with the lava theme

[@Getlucky12]

Another great level

[@theopoldthegamer4284]

I note that there's not much speedrun potential, but that's okay I also note that there's a few voicelines I haven't heard before

[@just_v3rd4nt]

Cool level!

[@spongebobmusicuhg3420]

Mario Maker 3 looking sick rn 🔥🔥🔥 Also are the talking flower voices fan made? Or are they just ripped from specific levels?

[@Lowemein]

this is really good dude! really creative! should’ve been an official level. oh and do you think you could make a tutu prism on how to set up the wonderland editor? i need a little help.

[@The.Real.Strudl]

Quick everyone watch this before nintendo takes it down!

[@Conmanthompson2]

Peaceful 😊

[@koosloo_ulia]

Something that always had annoyed me about wonder is that despite some levels having 3 wonder seeds, they are always from secret exits, why not have 2 wonder flowers in a stage? I’m not sure if that would be possible, but if you ever make another long banger like this it might be a good idea!

[@Pyrodiac]

It feels like an offical Mario Maker 2 level.

[@uiinpui]

That is quite a big level

[@teaoftraffic]

if you take requests, i would really like a mix of a ghost house + those rifts from world 5 idk it just feels like it’d fit

[@extremepayne]

Here before the ninjas and their copyright trolling :P

[@DemiFlowerYoutube]

Hi rimea. Great level! Are you still working on your nslu mod?

[@Rimea]

Not really no, I find it hard to justify working on nsmbu/nslu stuff now that the majority of my subscribers are made up of people who are only here for Super Mario Bros. Wonder stuff. However, working on this level did make me yearn for the simplicity of making nslu levels, so I'm not saying the mod is cancelled either.

[@DemiFlowerYoutube]

OK, good to know that it isn't cancelled.

[@Pluto5323]

I still wonder why they didnt add the ice flower in this game. Would've loved that.

[@HandleHandle145]

Omg when I play test my levels I do exactly like this, I try to roleplay as a guy who has never seen my level before
