You didn't mention that putting a castle in water will make it hidden in the water until you have completed any levels that block the path towards the hidden castle. Hope this info comes in handy to any makers out there. Thanks for the video!!

I don't know why, but your voice makes me really really relaxed

I think the most important rule is to make the level match where they are on the map. Lets say you have a desert world, and the 2nd level is a Pyramid. Put a Pyramid around that level and maybe even hint at a secret by putting an oasis next to the pyramid. If a level has poison, put a pit of poison next to it on the map. These are just some examples. To make an immersive experience make your levels match your world and vice versa. You can also do this with World order. Maybe make a Mountian (Underground or Desert) lead to a snowy theme. Like you are so far up the temperature drops. Then maybe go to clouds or space. Also if its a ground theme you can branch out. Maybe make a level on a Hill in the map be in the Desert SMW theme. Or make a world start out as one theme then go to another. Just be creative sticking to one theme per world makes it harder to come up with ideas.

Once a friend starting testing my levels before uploading them, I was able to correct many mistakes in them to improve them overall, it's good to remember that while you can beat an obstacle you make, others may not know what to do

The add was amazingly well-received, but once I was there I felt absurdly overwhelmed... don't feel like just placing the levels I've already made... I think I need to take some time and create a whole bunch of new levels with its respective theme and progression according to the world! don't see the point if not done this way...

How to make a super world: Step 1: make level Step 2: yes

5:36 I'm concerned about your levels Tobias

4:06 note that it changes to a “air” tile in the space and air themes, where Mario enters a Lakitu cloud to fly over the air path

This was really useful to watch. I have been working on my levels for the last few months and have uploaded my super world but now seeing some of the ideas mentioned it has made me think about the exact layout of the worlds. Am going to go back and re-evaluate them to see if they can flow even better for the player.

Very entertaining and informative!

Great video! I didn’t think to use the enemy on the world map as a mini challenge to defeat them and move forward. Thanks for making this detailed guide!

*Wait this isn’t item breakdown*

If the castle level is inside a water tile, it rises from the water/void/lava! Super epic! Oh and it’s also invisible! You won’t see it unless you can go there

This channel is severely underrated

Best RU-vidr by far - the only one that is willing to challenge ideas politely, while also showing their own. Also, yes, consistency in worlds is key!

The idea of a Super World is a monumental task. I am so glad Nintendo added the feature but making a good one is daunting. Plus, I feel like a lot of people already had a ton of levels before Update 3.0 so this might hurt their potential uploads. I myself had around 40 levels before 3.0 so I definitely still have my fair share of level slots but using 40 more for a super world stressed me out. So I looked at my existing levels and found 6 that would fit well with a traditional theme. So I am making 34 new ones to fill out the rest. Hoping to have it ready for Christmas when a lot of new people will undoubtedly get SMM2. On another note, I recently replayed New Super Mario Bros. U to get some ideas for level design and pacing and here are some conclusions I came to: 1. World 1 should be so easy. There are a lot of new players in this game so include few enemies and pits. I remember a video Ceave once made about making traditional levels fully doable for someone who simply walks through them and that should be especially the case for World 1. 2. The first level of a new world is always easier than the castle of the last world that preceded it. 3. This is more of a Mario Maker 2 specific advice but I think if you use multiple 1-up houses per world don't reuse the same minigame in the same world. 4. I completely agree with you about more puzzle oriented levels complementing more traditional ones. I think ghost houses are especially well fit for this. A lot of people like to talk smack about the NSMB games but their ghost houses are real brain benders. Definitely try to make players think to beat them but don't make them too hard. 5. Make sure to have a lot of resting areas in traditional levels where there are few to no enemies with some bonuses like power-ups or 1-ups to get.

Awesome video, thanks for inspiring me at 4 am to plan a really well thought out super world based on space

I wasn't gonna sleep anyway. Improving my World Building is much more important

Thanks really needed help with making my world!

This was the type of video I have been looking for since this update came out, thank you!

Well, ain't this the best timing, I literally was curious about this today and BAM: upload.

You're so good at explaining everything! Great job.

I like the idea of having a warp pipe leading to the last level of a world on a hill, giving a nice fortification feel.

You can also make a secret exit in a super world by using a combination lock, here’s how: Make a level with a combination lock Make it look like a bonus level in world maker Make it lead to the castle (which should be hidden in water or air) Make a level that has a secret exit and put the combination in the secret exit In the secret exit, tell them to go to the level with the lock Optional- put “secret exit???” at the end of your level name so that the player knows that there is a secret exit Just search how to build a combination lock if you don’t know Hope this was useful!

Thank you for the info and advice! 👍

I got a switch with Mario Maker 2 a few days ago. And your level idea videos have helped me. I pretty much took your advice. Thank you.

Thanks a bunch. I didn't really know how to use this, and this really helped! I'm not surprised, though. All your smm2 content is awesome!

I knew Everything about this, but your voice is so relaxing, so i Saw the whole video😂

Thank you so much! This really motivated me to create something awesome! Soon I will show you or maybe somebody else what I did when I am done. You earned yourself a subscriber! :D

This video really helped me with my design of the world's. Thank you

Great video, very helpful!

This video helped me so much, thank you.

There’s one detail I think you missed out on. If you hide the final stage of a world in a water path tile, the final stage will be hidden from the path until the player has access to it. Great video, Toby!

Thx for the great vid bro, an epic world is incoming!

I can’t not tell you how much excitement I get when you publish a new video

Great video, it helped me a lot!

SMM2: Has volcano themed world Also SMM2: Doesn't have volcano themed levels Me: *Confuzzled noises*

It was really helpful, thank you

"If it's not fun, why bother?"

Great video. I have been working on my game for about 4 months now, and after my recent level edits, I'm just about ready to upload the whole game. I put a lot of time on this game, I hope people like it.

Really good video, and super helpful! I was struggling to differentiate my normal levels and my Super World levels so this will help. Maybe you could’ve mentioned how you can make the final castle in a world float up out of water?

Don't do it Christopher moon. *DON'T*

That’s some good advice. Really!

My recommendations are hilariously lined up. Your Master Sword video is directly above a video with Mario in his 'amiibo pose', where he's holding his hand out. It lines up perfectly. So perfect.

Thank you for teaching me

I am gonna get Mario maker 2 eventually and this is helping me so much on how to make a super world.

SO MUCH WOOOOORLDS THEY ARE COOOOOOOL thanks it's brilliant and amazing

You did a good job

This is a really good video!

Good stuff! I hope more Makers really consider some sort of greater purpose or vision to their Super Worlds. Though the downside is that I'm experiencing is that having a really ambitious plan will take you so long to finish it that people might not be playing the game by the time it's done!

Great Video! I didn't know you could change the castle to an airship.

I agree with all of this. It needs to be consistent.

I'm planning on making a full 40 course traditional mario game in a super world and it's coming on quite well. Thanks for the tips aswell

Let's be honest, if it weren't for the Item breakdown you are still thinking about, the video is surprisingly very good quality and well explained, always surprising me;)

Holy shit man, you’ve been growing like crazy. You were only at 800 subs a year ago! Congrats, dude!

2:39 "When a plwayer beat the wast wevel in the world..." Literary genius.

Nice!

I finished my super world about 2-3 months after the update released. I spent most of the free time I had trying to create as fun a traditional world and boi am I happy with what I did when I showed it to an irl friend who was seeing everything for the first time and I just watched him. I most DEFINITELY did the planning, in a notepad, I wanted as early as possible to know what gimmicks I was gonna use, which worlds I would use which koopaling for and how would I tie the world's thematic into them and tried to make each of them stand out by more than just what they can do in a boss fight. I hadn't finished my first world yet that I had all 40 lvls listed down with every name and every theme for each. Roy is able to dig around so I made him pop out throughout his castles/fortresses at certain intervals. Ludwig uses devices so his lvls have all these gears that must be interacted with to progress. I also had a recurring thing in every single lvl where I placed 3 big 30-coins to work as star coin equivalents that are optional to pick up but someome more dedicated may decide to try and collect each of these coins. The pacing is a difficult thing to gauge yourself but a friend of mine was trying some of my lvls as I uploaded them in advance and I was unafraid to delete and commit changes regardless of if it already had a good reception with the general public (and I made changes to a good many of them, sometimes heavy changes). In the end result I can definitely feel like it was good since I saw my friend progressively have a more difficult time, starting by clearing some early lvls on the first try to having a juggernaut of a hard time on my last lvls. He did give up on some sidepaths that I purposefuly made difficult because they either were not part of the critical path or offered a shortcut. Pay-off though? Well my friend got immensely excited when he finally beat the final lvl and later asked me if I made new lvls (unfortunately I did not as I have so many games I wanna play). He has skipped a few lvls, some which I wished he'd have seen but it was his choice and I didn't expect him to be able to beat them all so I simply kept on watching how he decided to tackle my world. He did have to see all my proudest lvls though. for the curious: NXF-3W2-QJF.

Thank you cause I’m new to this update

Great video as always tobias

How to not make Super Worlds: - Baseball Minigame - Make the island look flat - Flood buildings

Good stuff

Things I want to see changed/added: 1. If you restart you do lose a life. 2. If you gameover restart from the beginning of the world you’re at. 3. Secret exits/paths that only appear after beating a level. 4. Some way to carry power-ups over to the next level (maybe being able to toggle this). 5. An on/off switch that changes paths on the map (or changes the on/off state of the level played. 6. Transition levels between warp pipes, just like in smb3. 7. Maybe bigger worlds and more levels per world. 8. Option to make enemy levels walk around, just like the _moving_ enemies of the other games By no means I think Nintendo is gonna add these, (because it seems very un-Nintendo like) but if they somehow will, then these are the ones I really want to see Nintendo add to make world maker perfect. The first two though I think are really needed.

I'm sure this is like the number one thing other people are talking about, but I would sooo love the option to add alternate exits to levels. Naturally they would be great for adding regular old secret paths to bonuses. But you could even get a bit creative with them... Perhaps you could guide the player down one path, where they find a powerup or code they need to access the other path. More generally, I would just love to have more options to make the world map feel more dynamic. For example, it would be great if you could set a level with an enemy tile to only appear once it's accessible. You could set up situations where the player thinks they're almost done with the world, but then a surprise enemy appears on the path.

you got in an alpharad video good job my man

I'm making this comment before finishing the video so if you go through this im sorry. A huge thing if you're making a *traditional* super world is make the first level of a world slightly less difficult than the castle of the previous world (with world 8 being the exception) that will make the player not feel overwhelmed and give them a little breathing room. And the second stage should be equal to the previous worlds castle then keep getting harder and harder through the world untill they have to use everything they learned in the castle of the world. You probably saw that I said except world 8. That's when you throw everything you got at a player and say "have fun" make it super difficult. BUT DO NOT MAKE IT KAISO. Make difficult jumps that require timing and strategy or manipulation of enemies in a short time span. My design theory is I want world 1-3 as easy. 4-6 as normal. 7-8 as expert. 8-castle as an easy super expert. My maker Id is NB4-CWL-Q2G

My first super world ALL THANKS TO HIM 😁 YAY

Hi! I have a degree in game design. All of this was accurate and well!

This is my first time watching your videos

Was looking forward to this video. Was thinking of putting hidden worlds that required like collecting all the red coins in each level or something... I suppose that isn't possible, same for returning to already-cleared worlds? But great thanks for the video, I think I know what I'll do instead...

Hey tobias, long time no see I saw your 4 hour live stream a year ago about mm2. Missed you gonna start watching from hear on :)

If you know of many particularly good super worlds, please consider doing a compilation video previewing them with codes in the description. I'd especially like some traditional-style recommendations.

A little specific tip: in a water based world, if you made a shipwreck level (like by using nsbu semisolids) and have a 3d world level in the same world, put it in front of the shipwreck level, because in 3dw underwater theme there is a shipwreck in the background (this can also be used on other combos, like 3dw forest to smw sky)

Good!

9:05 Prestigiously perfect philosophy.

Great video, really helps and encourages me to make my super world. What notepad were you using in 9:22?

It would've been great to have more than just 4 (5 counting the castle) levels to place, world skipping levels (cannons if you will), and methods to utilize alternate exits. Now THAT would've been cool, and it would've felt like making an actual Mario Game. Although, I am very amazed at what we have so far.

When making these I used to be half little timmy but I am making a super super good world rn and it will be ready in a couple days or so

great video it helped

must I design all the levels or I can use stages that I downloaded from other players? (I only play offline)

Also I think that if you put the final level in the water then it won't show up until you beat the level before it, which will lead the final to rise out of the water, which is pretty cool.

Loving the new profile picture

I´m about to finish my 2nd Super World with all the new mechanics from the update. Oh boy, I hope they will like it! It´s a 40-level 8-world one! xD

This is more helpful than the official guide

After watch halfway through this video I got a great idea to make a custom paper Mario game by using the world maker to make the over world/under world and the enemies you can place as fights

I like your soothing voice

I've never done this myself, but I'm curious, what happens if you delete a level from course world that is in your super world?

The Baseball Minigame Music is a reference to the NES Baseball Game, while the Toad House Balloon Music is a reference to a scene in the Famicon Disk Writer.

one thing you didnt mention is that you can hide the castle or airsip

I didn't know about this! I thought it was story and levels

Koopalings item breakdown? Maybe? It’ll be good if you did.

I mainly also try to avoid clashing themes next to each other, so not doing Desert or Volcano next to Snow

Can you do an item breakdown on the Power Balloon, cannons, trampolines, swinging claws, track blocks, and the SMB2 Mushroom?

My recommendation for a traditional super world is you should use each of the worlds in a traditional way here are some examples World 1: Ground World 2: Desert World 3: Water so use forest or underground World 4: Snow World 5: Forest or underground World 6: Space or something mountain like World 7: Sky World 8: Volcano These can be changed around if needed

You can place the castle in water/lava so that it only rises when you beat the level that blocks the path to the castle. I always do this with the final castle to make it look epic coming out of lava

Tobias: *says damn* Me: *gasp*
