Rating this is more like...rating the quality of the editor? It's very heavily community oriented, the main levels don't offer so much at all. Community levels can predictably range from really fucking cool to really awful, so then it's like, how do you score that? But again it's all possible with the editor which is not hard to use when you have ideas and allows for some crazy possibilities (including little minigames and even a recreation of brainfuck in one case)

Also of note though is that the community is hell and there has not been a major update in four years and counting. I made a bunch of my friends here but also probably just as many enemies i 'd honestly just like avoid gd twitter as much as possible

this game was actually helpful as it taught me how mentally low i could really go before i completely lose my shit. great game! (1.3k hours in Steam)

Control/Gameplay - It's just clicking.

Graphics & Sound - Dependable on the creator, the vanilla levels are kind of shit when you compare to what other players are capable of making in the online levels with banging newgrounds music

Story - No story plot.

Characters - Scratch da homie fr

Replayability - I would 100% go back to test my mental abilities again

Overall Score - 3.5

It's fun but hard. I like "bwomping", and most people call the square a cube even though it's not 3D! I like the game because it has a lot of customability, and you can do funny things. And my favorite part is playing the level Blast Processing (the bwomp level) because it has the best song in the game. My favorite custom song is called Endgame by Waterflame, and Waterflame makes good songs. And when will 2.2 come out? Robtop please. Please give us 2.2. Bye!

I have now 100% completed this game twice just because I wanted to. Tons of unlockable content, great stages, fun hazards, and basically limitless replay value. Calling this game "Competitive Mario Maker" is pretty accurate, but it's somehow even more fun than that description would lead you to believe. Stalling and trolling are a little too effective online, but the real experience is with four people in the same room. Easy 10/10 with a group of friends, about a 7-8 if you are playing online against randos. Still highly recommend either way.
