George seems to have two settings:
"Whatever" and "METAL GEAR RISING IS A PERFECT GAME"
That is so freaking true
People seem shocked that this critic is criticising things.
Given the title, I thought he was surprisingly positive.
It's a good thing that one of his main criticisms is the lack of mid-level checkpoints, since that's been fixed now in the game. :)
@Willz __ is.. is the poor grammar and misspelling a way to indicate that you're being sarcastic?..
10:31 Glad you liked my level, was a bit worried when I made it that people would hate the part at the beginning where you have to go through the underground section and wait for the switch to open up the pipe back up because it's time consuming. I wanted to have a little gameplay section explaining the concept to people who don't speak English, as a lot of Mario Maker courses assume you can understand the title. It's something Nintendo tends to do in actual Mario games.
The length was somewhat of a happy accident, as I quickly ran into the limit for enemies in a stage, which is also tied to the number of P-Blocks in a stage for some reason. I definitely didn't want to have it go on for too long due to the lack of checkpoints in Mario Maker.
Also you can actually get past that boo circle in two ways. Jumping in-between the switches is one way, but you can also do it by waiting for the gap in the boos and then walking off the ledge and dropping to the left of the left P-Block,and then kicking both switches to your left. That way's probably trickier though.
Hey, I 'm really glad you made this video George. There seems to be a huge difference in your inflection from the last several vids. You sounded like you really enjoyed yourself, and in turn it made this much much more enjoyable to watch! I love your critiques on the gaming industry, but sometimes it can get a bit depressing, so I'm glad you are doing things like this to lighten the mood :)
+snomaN Gaming Yea, he really does sound like he hates video games sometimes. But I still love his content even if it does sound a bit moody at times.
At the end of the day, people that love video game the most usually are the most critical ones.
+snomaN Gaming Not hyped for the latest crap = Depressing. Facepalm
+Franco Guasch It's true that his other videos haven't been as cheerful in tone as this one.
+snomaN Gaming I dunno, he definitely still had that whiny tone at times.
snomaN Gaming Not everyone enjoys selling out and choking on corporate dicks.
Thanks for compiling a list of recommended levels. I've had bad luck with finding good levels through the game itself. With some pleasant exceptions.
+dram551 I've run into the same problem, and I've been reaching out trying to find people who make quality levels. I think my stuff is pretty solid, but I feel like I'm constantly improving. Check one of mine out (and also some of my others while you're at it if you like this one), and I'd be glad to also give yours a look over in turn. 164E-0000-0063-C6FC
+dram551 I love your runs, man! Keep at it!
a happy wiedman is a good man!
+dram551 i agree
yeah me to!
Criticism of capitalist in a Mario Maker level... I... I think I may have seen it all now.
Not impressed "le communism meme" and super mario maker might have the same target audience
Ehh, they can be pretty funny when someone making the jokes actually understands Marxism or Gramscian theory. I feel that's just an affectation of my sense of humor due to my chosen discipline and how much contact I've had with communist literature while studying world history. So I get it.
I remember I saw a custom CS Source map criticizing shooters....
I love how the last level you reviewed is one by a person influenced by Mark Browns Game Makers Toolkit episode on making Mario levels.
It's really good! I'm so pleased for Iglian. His follow up, 1-2, is great too - DA57-0000-003A-CF1A
+Ularg It's really the best way to design any game in my idea.
+Mark Brown Thanks for the recommendation, Mark. I feel so proud that people are enjoying my levels so much. I promise 1-3 will come out soon!
I just binged watched all Mark Brown's videos this morning!
+Addler Hovey binge-watched
You seemed rather pessimistic on this one. People are sending you levels, not everyone is a level designer, some encouragement would of been better than writing them off! Level design is a lot harder than it looks
+xisumavoid I think for the most part George was giving constructive criticism. For example, 15:48 to 16:00 as well as 5:50 to 5:55 and 6:48 to 7:20. Also, he gives some pointers for any future level designers for SMM by the Metroid-Mario levels when working with difficulty and no checkpoints.
+xisumavoid Hey, if they suck, they suck. No need to sugarcoat it.
I don't think he was being 100% serious. He seems like a pretty conscientious guy.
I admit I did a double-take at some of them when the tweet was all like
"Hey man :)! I love your vids! :)! Here's a fun level ^_^!" and he was all like THIS IS HORSESHIT!!!!!!!
*would have
This video reminds me of the older Bunnyhop vids. Just more playful, lighthearted, fun, and just cozy. All whilst remaining equally as informative and all. I miss that.
Go re watch his first videos on doom and rage. they are great
+Natural Space Cat The word you are looking for is "Edgy" lol. Also nice profile picture.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Such a lust for revenge
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO????!!!!????
+[Jacket] The Metal Gear 1 and 2 MSX videos are some of my favorites of his.
thanks for playing my Lost in Metroid level George! your expression really made my day :)
I had fun with this. I sat through the whole thing and just listened. It was like a lecture on game design wrapped in a letsplay sensibility and I haven't seen anything like this before. It's a creative use of everything you had access to, and I hope you make more cool innovative stuff like this in the future. If I hadn't already subscribed, this would have made me do it in an instant.
This game should allow you to search for levels by keywords instead of number codes
I loved your critique of random users generated levels! Thank you for doing what you do!
The last level, wasn't that from Mark Brown? It looked very similar to the one he designed in his video on Mario design.
Also, I'm forever buttmad that I didn't submit a level myself and now the chance to have George call my level shit is forever gone.
That last level was from me, heh. Definitely inspired by GMTK, but not in any way his.
This was great, I'd love to see another video about you completing Mario Maker levels.
Must comment quickly before Nintendo takes this video down!
+Renegade Master Don't worry, Jirard protects George from Nintendo taking the ad money from him ;)
ew275x The Completionist? Are both they owned by the same network?
Renegade Master Yeah, George manages The That One Video Gamer podcast. Jirard gets early stuff from Nintendo just like GameXplain and Jwittz.
The only videos I've seen removed by Nintendo were by a guy using their content creator program and were done in emulators which is a no-no.
Like I've mentioned various times else, I really dislike the Nintendo TH-cam stuff since it takes away from other bigger problems the company has.
Notice the border? That tricks the bot they use.
Yea Nintendo is a greedy ignorant Dumbass. How about they focus on why their sales have plummeted instead of hindering people that are promoting it. Smh
The Swedes are too busy playing CS and Starcraft 2.
+Peter Hasselström I think that's the Koreans.
+Isaac Argesmith i have 1 swedish friend on steam, he plays cs a lot
+Peter Hasselström From what i saw mainly americans still play kid's games.
+Mitachia Mario is for all ages
Artuurs Bunts
Said the american
16:17 That cloud reminded me of Vermin Supreme.
+MurraySwe A vote for me is a vote wasted
Hey, I made Mystery Cabin, I'm glad you liked it, and thanks for the testing, I will change the musical notes for regular question mark blocks so the plant can't go down... xD
I like the way you presented this. Quick, to the point, intelligent, witty and unforgivingly truthful.
Of course I would be pissed if like a couple of people in the comments, who probably sent you their insignificant levels and were called out on it. Then again, I don't even own a wii ^^
Now that Super Mario Maker 2 is out on Switch, you can play the levels! I really LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! Keep up with good work!
I love how you manage to be sarcastic but almost sound nice doing it. Magic.
Lol, I really like this idea for a video. Good job as always, George. It really looks like you had fun making this video :)
I was hoping to see a PangaeaPanga level in here, although I'm glad to see a Dan level at least.
+MarlowPreston I was going to ask if he tried out Pangaea levels too. Hopefully he tries it out some time.
Thank you so much for doing this, most reviews I find either play the level freaking blind or spoil the whole thing making having a review pointless you told us only what we need to know to get us interisted and gave advice to everyone how to make good levels. More Please
I love the rick and morty references lately. Keep them coming :D
Great episode!
I love the idea of showcasing fan content. More, please!
Okay, before I watch this, let me download it somewhere safe, somewhere Nintendo can't get to it.
+Ry P Save it on the wii U they'll never see it there
The Dreamcast?
Your videos are by far my favorite. Thanks for creating.
Probably the best Auto i've ever seen on SMM so far. Its AMAZING especially the whole Bowser battle at the second scene: EDC9-0000-0082-11C1
+Art Sin Nice!
Thanks for playing my level, Infiltration, glad you mostly liked it :) I definitely wish i could have put a checkpoint on it, it seems like the most crucial thing missing from the game at the moment
The delivery of George's voice has that awkward delay and intonation of Egoraptor or Matt and Pat in this and recent videos.
I love it. I honestly think George pulls it off the best.
This might be a game worth taking another look at- the 2 year Mario Maker collab did some really creative, interesting things with Mario Maker and it could be neat to see what the community was able to do, despite Nintendo limiting their toolset.
The main problem with Mario Maker... is that people keep trying to make levels that aren't Mario Levels...
they are just puzzles, endurance challenges or just... annoying.
No, the problem is you.
Some of the levels in both Mario Maker 1, 3DS and 2 are actually pretty impressive (especially music levels, puzzles and more), but unfortunately, some of them are just mish-mash of enemies/items/gizmos/blocks etc.
It's nice to see a really positive, non-serious video from you.
Very enjoyable video, wouldn't mind seeing a sequel.
Aw man I got owned.
But great video George
I liked this review a lot. You showed off poorly designed levels, as well as really clever and good ones. You actually did a review the way one was meant to, especially with this style of game: you talked about both the pros and cons. Looking forward to the next review!
I got upset that you didn't do mine, but then I remembered I deleted it so that I could upload a better version. I might do that again after seeing all of these great levels. I got some ideas for improvements.
"Yeah, it's no Touhou"
So cruel, but made me laugh
C'mon George, fun little secrets with just 1-Ups are what make Mario so good, the reward is the secret itself!
+Shukterhouse Jive nah
+Shukterhouse Jive exactly, i still put secret 1-ups in my level, because that's Mario damn it!
+Murkrust you fan boy
Shukterhouse Jive They should be star coins though.
2:15 - I get what you mean about 1-ups being useless rewards in Mario Maker, but I think the fun in finding secret areas is the actual discovery rather than the reward. Most secrets in 2D Mario games usually just give you junk like coins or an abundance of 1-ups, but that doesn't make figuring out how to get to them any less rewarding in itself.
Happy you gave it a shot though.
This video is going down in 3 2 1 wait it's still up. Keep up the great work George.
I like your videos where you do not sound weary, but actually seem to have enjoyed yourself. More of that, please.
The opening statements are funny now after 3 and a half years of amazing community development!
This was awesome! More?!
One of the most enjoyable episodes in recent memory. You need more content like this.
Since you have a Wii U, why not explore a bit into it's library? For example Affordable Space Adventures.
The turtle shells in "Infiltration" killed it for me.
I don't know who you are or what you are about, but you're clever, witty, and sarcastic. I'm in.
Great vid. Could you do a top 10 video eventually?
I'm just glad to see someone who can play a Mario game showing off these levels. A LOT of the bigger media outlets have people who are embarrassingly terrible at even moderate Mario challenges.
The attitude throughout this video is a mix of cynicism and fun which greatly reflects what I felt during the 100 Mario playthroughs. Most levels were skipped, died, given up on, and played through but never given a second thought vs a level that surprised you and made you want to respond in some capacity.
Super Bunnyhop, the 1-ups are vital on 100 mario no skip challenges!
The single screen level with clouds and ghosts is genius.
This video made me realize how George really can manage to make something seem way better than it actually is (or way worse).
@Fizz I've had four long years to think about this and yeah, I suppose you're right that he is, in fact, a critic.
You sound fly as hell recently. How have you been practising? Improv, theatre or something like that maybe?
Anyone who's played the expert mode of the 100 Mario Maker challenge will learn to appreciate secret hidden 1-Ups. So maybe you should try playing that.
Man I had completely forgotten that Mario Maker didn't have checkpoints at first.
8:59
"This level is made by someone with game hacking experience"
2 years later the level creator makes Doki Doki Literature Club
nice video george, as always! :D
I know this vid is almost 2 years old, but now that the Mega Maker is out you can review some mega man levels similar to this.
Can you implement pass movement sequences to skip ahead, press theses triggers in this order, to get to this straight path with lots of fast automatic movement, where the sequence is only revealed later in the level?
Can you make levels many screens high but very narrow?
Wow so much interesting content!
Dan Salvato is Doki Doki
besides dunkey's super mario maker vids this is my favorite thing that anyone has done for content with this game bc this is wholesome stuff.....
except for the patricide
Just so y'all know, you can plug the level codes into the last part of the URL for the Mario Maker Bookmark site. Makes this a whole lot easier. Also, for the last one, there's an extra '6' in the last part of the code.
Great video and suggestions for level creators. My first level which I don't want to upload was a bit of a mess because I crammed everything I could. Less is definitely more. I am becoming tired of the 'don't touch anything' levels. If I want to play Mario; I want to play Mario. They are impressive on a technical level but the novelty wears off fast when you see dozens of them. I completely agree though that Mario Maker needs a checkpoint. Ive been making shorter stages to learn the assets but shorter stages also mean they are more accessible without checkpoints.
I come from the future! Where there are checkpoints in Mario Maker!
In my opinion, you seem to dismiss easy levels too readily. A level doesn't need to be difficult to be good.
Yes but he likes challenge
+Nixitur I assume that if he said that the level was too easy, that it must have been completely brain-dead. Unless you played them and can say otherwise, then I'll shut up.
+Nixitur none of the levels he played even seemed hard. So the easy ones were probably pathetic
+Conrad Korbol i assume he has played Kaizo
George knows what Touhou is? That's something that makes me way happier then it really should.
As the people over at Giant Bomb have said. The levels you really want out of this are the "well, that could have totally been in Super Mario World" (or etc). Yet those are also the hardest to find, given the lack of ability to easily search for keywords, or user names. The lack of ability to publish, say, a world-map with levels, or even just a 8-16 or whatever set of levels meant to be played in order (and keeping things like power-ups and yoshis and etc in mind).
This game is good, but it is missing so much that the romhacking community has used over the years to create some truly amazing things. He shows theses at the beginning (custom sprites, music, world maps, bosses, objects,scripts etc etc) but, even though clearly Nintindo would never let you, say, add Final Fantasy Battle Music as a background tune, or add in a Super metroid boss-rush (yup, those things exist, seriously go look at raocow's channel for a massive amount of such romhacks being played. VIPs being a good example). Even so, the lack of certain things leaves this a 4/5, instead of a 5/5 as far as abiltiy to truely produce good quality levels.
The game will still produce good content, for a long time, but the lack of the above features will, inevitably lead them to need to release either DLC, or Mario Maker 2.0. Else the best possible experiences will be limited to Romhacking and absent in the wider Mario Maker community.
What's the name of the music during 3:44? It's so smoothing, I need it!
As a Swedish fan:
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
I'm pretty sure that that last one actually took things analyzed in Game Makers Toolkit and put it to use. I remember seeing it in a GMT fan creations video.
You know that Polygon has a series right now where they ask Game Devs to make a Mario Maker level, maybe you should try those out.
PS: I recommend the one that is made by Koji Igarashi (Castlevania) and Derek Yu (Spelunky) they're a blast.
Will there ever be a second part for this? I'd love to get more feedback on my levels.
Bunnyhop, I really enjoy your videos and your opinions which is why I wanted to see your twitter, I didn't even know you had a Twitter until this video, you really should put the link in your descriptions because your twitter account isn't verified so I wasn't sure if it was really you, I obviously do now but you really should link to your twitter in the description for new fans
where is Nathan george ?!?! we know you are keeping him somewhere !! For real tho i miss the first reviews of this channel i don't know if was Nathan 's fault but those reviews had a sense of humor that slowly faded away in time like tears in the rain
There are Checkpoints now.
yes, i Know this vid was in October from 2015 where the checkpoint update was not revealed yet.
Think its the most useless comment of all times xD
Aldo Van Dyck ^^
When you come to think about it,level design is extremely hard.I am currently working on a puzzle level,where different puzzles mean different consequences.But I saw that doing this was not easy.But overtime you learn more,and get better.Eventually,one of your levels will end up on top 100 starred courses!You just need to try.
Isn't that last one Mark Brown's from Game Maker's Toolkit?
I don't know why, but every video I just open from TheBunnyHop I just watch till the end. I don't have a Nintendo console or handheld anymore and I don't follow any of their new games or anything.
Yet when I saw this, I just watched the whole video.
Together with GGmanlives one of the best and most critical youtube games channels out there.
Surprise Dan Salvato cameo at 8:50!
lol
FRT!
Can you do more Mario Maker videos like these?
12:12 - is that the shopkeeper from Quarantine I hear?
THESE WERE GREAT! MORE PLS!
Going to do another one of this videos now that some of the limitations have been addressed?
I'd only get this to play mario-world-feeling levels. Ones with a sense of adventure and world-exploration. And yes, it deeply needs a world map maker
. Half-assed Nintendo. God damn
It's all so true. Hell, there's no slopes! But I would have loved a World Map Editor.
Based off of what I saw in the video, that last level looks a whole lot like the level that Mark Brown of Game Maker's Toolkit made for his Mario Maker video.
this is only partly related but what inspired your channel's name?
Bubsy: WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG????
Were you channeling your inner Al Russell at 1:40 ?
Psychonauts
In Figure it Out, I thought the coins across the ground would guide the player to the spring. Apparently not.
how do you get the cat paw cursor in mario maker?
I really enjoyed this video.
Also, really nicely edited. Must have taken some work.
So.... With all the levels you have please so far, could we expect a vid in future where you analyze the potential and flaws of mario maker in more depth?
Man I'm always late to the part on these community collabs, story of my life........well if you ever decided to do any more of these kinds of videos here a few to consider.
