3:56 To clarify the Ragtime Rampage level, the portion of the song plays twice, not two paths: the first time you are just running and can hear the whole piece, the second time you have to survive the platforming. I wanted peeps to still be able to hear the song if they couldn’t do the platforming. (Which I did do to upload) This was the first level I ever created. I’m ambitious. I didn’t know about cheese at the time. I discovered you can kick spinys on conveyor belts just by running into them. This was fun. Thanks for showing my level.
There's a lot of intricate New Super Mario Bros speedruns like that, but that's one of the craziest and coolest I've seen. No way I could dream of beating that in a million years lol.
It was amazing to see your skills on that one last level, even without having played it before you were able to know what to do in most of the parts. Ryu goat ❤️
He had to twirl to get the fireball on the bridge (there are even indicators for it), so I am assuming the description disclaimer meant for the part after that where he actually gets the acorn suit... but I don't see why it matters if he twirls or not there because it seems to work either way... 🤷
@@David-kc2sj Nope, he didn't forget. He explicitly called out the "no twirls", and then just did it anyways. I guess either assuming it was a suggestion as in, "no twirls needed", or just said "sod it" to the challenge of not twirling.
There's this TH-cam channel called Keeper1st. That guy, Tom Brier, sight-reads a lot of Mario music in ragtime style. Actually, you'll find that most of the Mario music is in fact ragtime! I highly recommend everyone to go watch some of his videos. I think Athlete's Rag, Yoshi's Island Athletic Theme and Super Mario World Ending are some of my favorites. On a sad note, he's been in an accident a while ago which left him with severe health conditions, unable to play music right now. But if nothing else, the videos are a testament to the man's skill. Edit: Like that SMB 2 music: pure ragtime.
@@Novastar.SaberCombat Thanks, yeah I wish more people knew about him. Some of his videos do have millions of views though. I made a redditpost on Ryu's subreddit about him as well. The post is called "Jolly fellow who speedreads Mario music". I hope Tom and his family are doing relatively okay. Life has been unfair.
SCOTT JOPLIN IS FOREVER AWESOME... for creating the Maplerag. 😁 Shout-outs to the level creator, who did an absolute SMASHING job at trying to capture the spirit of The Maplerag with the (obvious) limitations of MM. *Gad* I love that music. 😊
Thank you!!! That one was my work! I was super excited to see it make it in a vid, even if it wasn’t finished as intended. I’m hoping to have time to make more
Was really disappointed and it kinda felt like he didn't even try... more like he just wants to tick off a checkbox and didn't care about the level. I mean the music was phenomenal. He didn't even see what the "actual" path looks like.
@@homeyworkey it's 1 level huh? Tell that to the level creator why don't you? Also, how pathetic do you have to be to say "desecration is mandatory" on a MUSIC level?? Yes, Ryu cheeses where possible but that was always only in hot garbage levels so he won't have to put up with their waste of time. Have you ever seen him try to break and cheese and "desecrate" any good platforming levels? Yeah that's what I thought. "One level", rofl. What a joke
@@qpsyche9115 bro ur the joke here buddy, holy. like i said. IT IS ONE LEVEL. that is a great argument. ur making paragraphs over how ryu played a level, our of the 50,000 levels he's played, so pedantic. the level creator was probably happy enough that ryu got to play it. ur actually so annoying LMAO. not replying to yo dumbass
Maybe it was not challenging enough for Ryu. I mean watch him sight-read platforming like the last level here ... What the heck. Who cares how many expert levels he can slog through.
The ways some of these Rube Goldberg machines, masquerading as levels, need to line up sometimes is really insane, but watching one just cruise through, with the reaction times, and responsive controls necessary is a lot of fun!
20:52: Descending Donjon, but you're going up... Could we call this "semi-Lilkirbs level" or perhaps even Lilkirbs level? Also, "No twirls to get acorn", Ryu begs to differ :).
It was kind of a bad move to skip over the music level bit. I'm sure the creator put a lot of work into it. The solution wasn't that hard to figure out, a lot of commenters caught it as well. Maybe try more than once to figure out a spot you can't see the first time around.
I'm genuinely surprised #Ryukahr doesn't have 1mil subs yet, especially after all the love #JaidenAnimations showed in her Kaizo video. Keep up the good work, Ryukahr! 👍
My first time playing Mario 2 was actually Super Mario Advance for the gba. Got it for Christmas along with my indigo GBA and Mario kart super circuit. Awesome memories
Compared to the North American SMB2 the Japanese one is mediocre at best. I think the real reason they changed wasn’t because it was too hard but because people would have called them out for releasing a virtually identical game as a sequel. It isn’t even that hard. They released way harder games than that one in North America.
Still Super Mario Bros 2 was suppose to be a Mario game but Nintendo got the license to Doki Doki Panic from Fuji TV and reskinned Mario to be Doki Doki Panic. They later reskinned the Doki Doki Panic to be Mario 2.
16:59 Your character is within the fatal range of the bob-omb, when it's on swing claw, too many players get way too close to the bob-omb(bomb), often i the fatal range.
That last level.......the creator should have named it Ascending Donjon. The player is making their way up with the lava rising. Not going downward through the level. Just a minor nitpick. Great video as always Ryu.
Well, if no one else is going to comment on Ryu dreading the impending plumber-stomp at 11:18 then I guess it falls to me: 🤣 Some great levels in this video BTW.
As a hobbyist game designer, I can tell you that smaller hitboxes on enemies/hazards, but bigger hitboxes on collectibles are a must, somehow, if the hitboxes are accurate to the shape of the object, the gameplay feels off (that's one reason why a lot of small indie platformers feel "unfair"), Mario can stand on the very edge of a pit without falling or pick up a red coin without touching it, adds to the feel, not to the realism. Makers notice this and instead of using it as a design tool, they use it as a main feature, breaking the illusion... Spike/muncher hitboxes in this game are actually messed up and bad designed, no excuse for that.
The problem with hitboxes in Mario maker, isn't so much what Ryu showed in this video. But rather that some hitboxes are super unfair, like spikes in this game. If you touch a pixel, they will just instantly murder you.
6:58 That's what Ryu thinks. The level structure he 'desecrated' was actually that of porous cheese after mice start nibbling on it. It seems like Ryu was made to be the humble mouse here.
Ryu-- your piano chops are better than good and if you like rag time, check out the piece "The Banjo" by Louis Moreau Gottschalk. Widely considered the first American composer who was compared to Chopin and hailed from New Orleans in the mid 1800s! 🎶
Sorry about your endless run. I watched the whole thing live and it really sucks to get an almost impossible trick level when you were so close to the end. The funniest part is that a lot of chat grabbed the level code and started spamming the level with comments so next time the level creator logs on he's going to get a shitload of notifications and wondering what the hell happened.

dont care
I loved your level! Sad Ryu didn't see it through, but the Ragtime theme was so well done! Incredible first level
Levels like that last one always remind me of how much of a god ryu is at this game.
Thabeast is also a god at the game
Ryu don't mess around, dudes got skills
There's a lot of intricate New Super Mario Bros speedruns like that, but that's one of the craziest and coolest I've seen. No way I could dream of beating that in a million years lol.
Same here aha. I’ve been doing some unclear speedruns, haven’t beaten one yet lol
Watching that troll level brought me back to Ryu playing Thomandy’s troll level. He made a new one Ryu, just for you, that was last year.😂
I love Thomandy. I hate that he left streaming. He was so underrated.
"No twirls to get acorn"
Ryu: "Hold my tear"
I came down here to say the same thing.
I was practically screaming at him about this.
It was amazing to see your skills on that one last level, even without having played it before you were able to know what to do in most of the parts. Ryu goat ❤️
I love how Ryus videos are not effect-overloaded when it comes to editing. But when it hits, then it hits real good and i have a good laugh.
When the description says that you shouldn't twirl to grab the acorn and he keeps twirling every time.
Classic case of a youtuber-blindness.
He had to twirl to get the fireball on the bridge (there are even indicators for it), so I am assuming the description disclaimer meant for the part after that where he actually gets the acorn suit... but I don't see why it matters if he twirls or not there because it seems to work either way... 🤷
at the point he got to the acorn he probably already put in some time in this level so he forgot about the description
@@David-kc2sj Nope, he didn't forget. He explicitly called out the "no twirls", and then just did it anyways. I guess either assuming it was a suggestion as in, "no twirls needed", or just said "sod it" to the challenge of not twirling.

Pineapple Rag is good too
He needed to kick the spiky shell on the music level.
Was really disappointed and it kinda felt like he didn't even try... more like he just wants to tick off a checkbox and didn't care about the level. I mean the music was phenomenal. He didn't even see what the "actual" path looks like.

3:53 for a second I thought my TH-cam froze
Creator: What to name my level where you must ascend quickly to avoid rising lava?
Creator: DESCENDING DONJON!
I think the idea is that the level is sinking into the lava rather the lava rising.
@@LizardDude that actually makes a lot of sense and now I feel a little foolish
@@cthulhuftagen that’s exactly what it is lol. I created that level, and Donjon is an old timey word for castle. And it’s descending into the lava 🤣
Not sure how I feel about the phrase, “Desecration is mandatory”
I'm still in shock the 1000 levels ended the way it did!
Same
yeah that was a tragedy
Maybe it was not challenging enough for Ryu. I mean watch him sight-read platforming like the last level here ... What the heck. Who cares how many expert levels he can slog through.
You gotta appreciate that Ragtime music level. Those piano players in 1900 were the pioneers of razor-precise button input!!
the last stage was absolutely amazing, reminded me of how good you are in this game
Love the Dance Gavin Dance reference in that first level 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I too name all my levels after early 2000s emo songs!
When she talks, I listen.
She’s in the shower her skin glistens
🤘🏻😩🤘🏻

Tisk tisk, Ryu, likes are for people that don't desecrate their beautiful music levels.
13:40 when it's Friday and you're vibin'
That last level was incredible. Impossible for me, that's sure, but beautiful, well paced and nice to watch.
I think I might try it….. and rage quit
20:52: Descending Donjon, but you're going up... Could we call this "semi-Lilkirbs level" or perhaps even Lilkirbs level? Also, "No twirls to get acorn", Ryu begs to differ :).
i think the idea is that the dungeon itself is falling into the lava.
13:45 I got vibed by you vibing.
Amazing content creator.
Was a real heartbreak how it ended during stream yesterday. I'm so sorry for you. But I know you will get Ryuvenge!
You were supposed to kick the spiny shell into the on off block in the music level
This is the truth, says I the creator. :-)
15:45 i said omg 2 seconds before you. Thank you for the continuous uploads! 😊
13:40 That's the best song in the game imo. Underrated and underused.
13:40 = best part of video
Thanks Ryu!
That music level was the Maple Leaf rag by Scott Joplin. I wonder what is the correct way to beat the level.
I’m gunna have to show Ryu how it’s done. I legit uploaded the level. Gotta run run run!
Thanks for playing my SMB2 level. Glad you liked it
It was kind of a bad move to skip over the music level bit. I'm sure the creator put a lot of work into it. The solution wasn't that hard to figure out, a lot of commenters caught it as well. Maybe try more than once to figure out a spot you can't see the first time around.
Thank you, I appreciate the support!
That was a wickid run on that last level 😁👍🏻well done man!
Honestly, I'm surprised to see you back at work after yesterday's BS.
I'm genuinely surprised #Ryukahr doesn't have 1mil subs yet, especially after all the love #JaidenAnimations showed in her Kaizo video. Keep up the good work, Ryukahr! 👍
Ryu the part at 8 minutes where you say om nom nom nom would make a great youtube shorts clip, you better make it lol
4:29 that song is super mega runners, another mario rippoff that i like
I love that little editing on the facecam near 11:19 😝
I'd say _sprites_ are merely a suggestion, while hitboxes are law. Or, rather, the invisible hand of (in)justice.
Wow, that last level looked brutal to play, but also looked really cool. Very nice setups and tech.
I hope you aren’t too crushed after what happened last stream.
What happened I missed it
don't worry he got like 2k in donations yesterday I don't think he minded that much
What happened?
What happened
@@thaer12345 Apparently someone else said he got a really terrible super expert level that killed him on level 992 out of 1000

My first time playing Mario 2 was actually Super Mario Advance for the gba. Got it for Christmas along with my indigo GBA and Mario kart super circuit. Awesome memories
Two clears --> such a high clear rate
Ryu is never sorry, no matter how despicable the cheese is.

There are plenty more similar sequels out there…
And it did get kind of a graphical update…added wind……sideways platforms…Luigi controls…

That last level was incredible! I'd never try to complete it, but man, very well designed.
Hey brother I just wanted to let you know that I watch your videos every single day and I get really excited when I see a new Ryu video
That last level.......the creator should have named it Ascending Donjon. The player is making their way up with the lava rising. Not going downward through the level. Just a minor nitpick. Great video as always Ryu.
My favorite part is when ryu killed ryu. So unexpected 😂 11:20
“I was punished for being an overachiever. That’s messed up”. HAHA

You let yoshi die..... he didn't have too... you just didn't care
That last level was absolutely marvelous. What a ride.
That music level was the best
Thank you!!!
11:19 was a nice touch
I wonder if that first level is a dance gavin dance reference
Can you imagine dying in that last room with the lava? That would be the purest of anger🤣
I was listening to uneasy hearts weigh the most today lol I love that song

Makes you wonder, if Nintendo had allowed 3rd party developers to make some Mario games, what other SMB2-esk games could have been made?
Now THAT's What I call super expert caliber. Absolutely nuts
you had to kick the spiky guy to activate the switch. You gave up way too easily.

11:19 An internet-winning moment right here.

992 is a top 500 rank. He didn’t care about the challenge ending at all, he was happy that he made it that far
@@HarryBoSweets did Ryu tell you that?
@@mug281 no. However, I could infer that from the way he didn’t skip the level with many lives left, he saw it as going down with the ship

Dance Gavin Dance is the goat band. Tho, their album with Uneasy Hearts Weigh The Most isn't one of my faves
Ryu is the type of fella to cheese an optional hard route on a level. Legend.
6:58 That's what Ryu thinks.
The level structure he 'desecrated' was actually that of porous cheese after mice start nibbling on it. It seems like Ryu was made to be the humble mouse here.
