Super Monkey Ball 349 - Beginner Full Playthrough

This is a beginner pack with 20 new levels. It's not necessarily beginner difficulty, though. Most of the levels are average difficulty with some easier ones and some harder ones.
This pack was my first time doing a lot of things: seesaws, proper stage transparency, alpha masking textures and experimenting with mipmaps(highly unexplored, lots of potential).
It's possible that future updates might include more challenge mode content, and SMB349 will just be a dumping ground to put all of my future levels.

I recently found out you were hired to help with Rolled Out! Congratulations!

[@FrahdChikun]

Can't wait for it now!

[@potionmonkey157]

Imagine if "Fourth wall seesaw" was an actual level in vanilla monkey ball, it would be one of those stages that takes people ten years to find the solution too.

[@alanthesuperhero]

*view stage* OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH

[@goddesscarrie767]

scrap. you're the best super monkey ball maker on KZbin. the only one with designs as clever was the girl behind Hecka Mecha. you are truly something else and you have a very very bright future. oh my God. I just saw fourth wall seesaw. that level ALONE proves my statement. NOBODY would've thought of that. my God...

[@draco4569]

Not only @scrap651, but also Brandon, who's currently working on Rolled Out. They're all great designers!

[@blueducky1]

Beginner, 3 levels in: **Storm begins to play** Were you having fun?

[@seabit253]

What an INTENSELY cool pack. Just crammed full of innovation. I honestly love the idea of a dumping ground pack where all the wild and crazy levels go, because this alone is my favourite pack ever.

[@rujellyroll]

horrible stage maker was extremely dope though. can’t wait to see advanced and expert (´꒳` )

[@Crazy56U]

I can't wait for Super Monkey Ball 651 Deluxe, where you combine your 651 and 349 mods.

[@jonny9365]

These stages are fantastic. Some of the best ones I’ve ever seen. You’ve hit it out of The Park here, Scrap. Well done.

[@Squidtard]

If this is beginner, I can only imagine what master would look like

[@TheXploder24]

That mirror one was genius!! Awesome. I love how creative these get, they fit right into the original game imo. (in spirit, at least)

[@liambradley7633]

This is pure genius! Congrats on taking SMBall stages to the next level! However, Downward Trend wasn't my thing since it takes a LONGER amount of time to complete; but hey, slip-ups can happen!

[@zackmose]

The "Horrible Stage Maker" is hilarious and so creative

[@TravelocityKirby]

Dunno if the world is ready for split paths or Baba is You level hijinx (Fourth Wall Seesaw) in Monkey Ball yet. Seriously though these were some of the most mind boggling and mind blowing concepts I’ve seen yet! I nearly lost it at the Stage Maker level.

[@sbprakamranonymity4780]

Hey, I didn't expect 2CU here! :D And yeah, I agree with everything that you said in here.

[@verm2.082]

3 warps in the first stage huh interesting can’t wait to see the warps vid

[@ugoboom]

dude these are some big brain ass stages well done

[@Pintobean120]

These stages are excellent and a lot of them are jaw-dropping creative! Horrible Stage Maker, Shadow, Mirage (how did you get that visual effect??), and X-ray. Also love the bg and stage asthetics. My favorite bg is the sunset one by far. And congrats on being hired to develop Rolled Out! I can't wait to see what creative, ingenious aspects and stage designs you bring to that game.

[@scrap651]

I got the effect on Mirage by swapping out one of the mipmap textures. Thank you for your kind words!

[@draco4569]

My favorite courses were (in no particular order) Fourth Wall Seesaw, Mirage, Mirrors, Base, Shower, X-Ray, Fake Out, and Surfin' The Waves. Shadow was EXTREMELY trippy, and so was Base if you didn't hit the switch.

[@Progamer1013]

So wait... Did that poison have fall out properties?!

[@scrap651]

ye

[@shirohimayumikira234]

I guessed it from the start.

[@bluetoad6848]

Those are some of the most creative custom monkey ball levels I've ever seen. You've done a fantastic job at pushing custom monkey ball level beyond its limit.

[@1gnore_me.]

x-ray was a really cool idea

[@videogamenerd1991]

Man, Fourth Wall Seesaw was so genius, my mind literally hurts just thinking about the idea of this level!

[@shirohimayumikira234]

I was absolutely confused as to *HOW* it's even possible.

[@videogamenerd1991]

@@shirohimayumikira234 I think it has something to do with Meemee (or any other Super Monkey Ball character) going to the right and there's an invisible object which acts as a counter-weight (doubling the weight of Meemee, or any other character) on the other side which mirrored the characters movement (only on the bottom platform). Then as you go to the 'View stage' option on the pause menu, the invisible object goes away which will level out the stage. I think that's how that works.

[@jamesonshekmeister]

Mimi’s going to have some serious head trauma after going over 600 mph.

[@jamesonshekmeister]

Shit, I meant MeeMee. I think?

[@videogamenerd1991]

17:22 I'm starting to think I know how Fourth Wall Seesaw works now. First things first, and I'm getting the obvious out of the way, the starting platform does nothing. Now the fun part, talking about the seesaw platform...the bottom platform acts as a mirror in a way that if you were to go to either the left or the right side of the platform, there's an invisible counterweight game object that mirrors your movements, and this counterweight is like double your character's weight, doesn't matter who you're playing as. And as you go to View stage on the pause menu, as you won't be able to see your character on the screen, the invisible counterweight disappears, which resets the physics of the seesaw stage, leveling it out. And lastly, the platform over the seesaw does not (thankfully) act as a mirror. Man, I want to replicate this stage in Unity, this stage is definitely cool!

[@SupremeAvocadoBloons]

Nice :D

[@ArtilleryCrusader]

More levelpacks should have split paths, but more elaborate.

[@neptunewindowsmockups7191]

Warping Goals from Odd Numbers: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9

[@draco4569]

EX 3 Downward Trend took forever!! Good grief!

[@zedoctor_]

Why was there a skip to level 5 on expert 3?

[@VoidOrca]

When is there going to be an Advanced and expert for these😞

[@shirohimayumikira234]

Wait, what's the green goal in Beginner EX2 doing here? Is something happen? HOW IS FOURTH WALL SEESAW POSSIBLE!?

[@GoAnimations-xv8we]

Scrap651. How did you find out about monkey ball?

[@hewwix]

horrible stage maker is CLEVER AS ALL GET OUT good work, jeezz....
