*How do you use the Super Hammer in your own levels?* Let me know down below and check out the full Item Breakdown playlist for more inspiration! bit.ly/36BWWBm
Another issue with the hammer is that you're immobile when swinging on the ground. It really messes with stage flow. Then there are those hammer digging levels... X(
Thank you for making these videos to get rid of the boredom during this quarantine time. I appreciate it. I've only used a super hammer once so far in my levels and only in a short part where you build crates on top of a piranha creeper and then use his hammer to smash through blocks. But I'll definitely use it more with the ideas from this video.
Ah, yes, the Super Hammer, the ultimate item of RAGE in multiplayer versus -I can't talk, though, I block pipes and softlock people myself all the time-
5:33 yey my level! Also great video, and yeah you are right about that dont working on Kaizo Levels, I tried once to make a Kaizo hammer level but it just didnt worked, it is more fun to use on Traditional and Puzzle Solving levels
I disagree, unless you specifically mean the Kaizo Mario World series, which I doubt. Kaizo levels are mostly just suited to really good mario players.
Great video. The Super Hammer can be superb in some stupendously special stages shown, but using this honored hammer haphazardly can have high hopes be hopelessly hammered down.
What I don't like is that there are people that don't know you can make crates so then people don't finish your levels. Wish it was more clear that you can makes crates. :(
Hammers DO hit blocks above. Destructible blocks cause the hammer to pass through which is VERY important if you don't want the hammer to recoil, but you want a ceiling. If you use ground tiles or pblocks or spike blocks, the hammer will bounce off it from any direction including the top. This is a very important element in the builder courses I make. As for Kaizo levels, I've almost finished one that I've been polishing the mechanics and techniques for such a long time. It's extremely fast paced and makes use of almost everything you can utilize the powerup for. Progression and tech levels for this powerup are on my channel, it is the most underrated powerup in all of Mario history, not just maker.
Great video! Nice breakdown. What everyone should keep in mind is to place the hammer in ?-Blocks only. As it makes Multiplayer-Versus so much more fun.
It was pretty cool unlocking A new PowerUp like the Ball PowerUp thing. It has its Uses. But maybe if it had more things to work with it would be better.
I really dislike playing with this powerup. The button the stops you in your track to make an attack is the same as the running button, unless you jumped. The way you summon crates is also janky. So many times I destroyed my crates with a hammer attack when I was trying to summon one. Leading me to be extra cautious by holding up for way too long before hitting the y button. Also, as you said, this is the hardest powerup to de-cheese.
1:47 i call these blocks bricks, question mark blocks, hard blocks, ice (blocks)*, open blocks**, crates and icicles respectively *its in brackets cause i sometimes call just call it ice **i honestly dont know what to call it
i've made a unique level using the supper hammer, based off mining in minecraft! 16H-GVL-SJG due to the nature of the level there are many chances to get softlocked (the pipe randomly decides to stop spawning hammers at a point) but i hope you have fun in this surprising twist on mario!
