Shit.
I thought I would be home this weekend to submit but I won't be.
If anyone can get on my thing and get the code to the fiery level I have uploaded it would be much appreciated (only have two levels up).
Crayon 100000000000000000000000 points - obviously the best.
DogFingers - 3 pts - Really clever. I wish you could change the speed of the fire stick as it's easy to run away from it
TinFingers - 2 pts - there's some really lovely inventiveness here. That first path is a cool little puzzle
Mrs.Fingers -1pt - a classic idea iteration level. Really good how the ending bit is slightly more doable but it gets tougher before that (also liked the bit
Spoiler:
at the top - the ability to do a long flying jump and juuuuust onto a vine -delicious
DanFingers - Really good - Another cracking effort once you work out the correct jump weight its a delight - what made it miss out was that I got lost at one point, which is fine but it was on a bit where you have no time to explore. I think this is more a quirk of Mario maker's lack of smooth scrolling though.
WorFingers - Really nice idea. I bit too penalising for a small mistake maybe?!
LiveFingers - Good variety, but fairly easy to breeze through in a straight line.
Ok it was very very close between 1st place and 2nd place. And 3rd place wasn't that far off! Here is my final vote:
Spoiler:
1. Mrs Dogfingers. It was great fun; and not too hard or frustrating. I thought it was very clever and in particular the vine that led to power ups
2. Tin. Similar feelings to 1st place, but I cursed more. For me, Mario is firstly about fun then challenge and clever too. This had all that but just only tiny bit less fun, tiny bit harder, but had those nice hidden/hard to get to power ups.
3. WorKid. Great level and I really enjoyed this. Not as challenging but it was really fun. And as I said, fun is good.
Would like to have seen more of Mrs Dog's level but found it too hard to complete. Seem to be rubbish at vine jumpimg. Loved tin's in places but overall too hard.
I know what you mean re: things you hate. I marked down / didn't like ones with wall jumping. Cos I hate wall jumping. Cos it's so bloody unintuitive given hoe every other game I've played with wall jumping in makes you press the direction you want to jump in and Mario insists on pressing against wall. Aasrrtggghhh
