Super Mario Maker Gave Players Power
The second of Nintendo’s new IPs was Super Mario Maker, and it made a grand impression on the gaming world with it’s extremely intuitive control scheme that could only be executed as splendidly with the Wii U GamePad. It gave people that incremental learning curve to really let a person evolve beyond just placing cool objects into meticulously placing and calculating designs and structures.
Amid over 1 million levels uploaded, some have been downright sadistic and others have been a walk in a park. A park that looks like a Mario level. Plus, it always helps that Nintendo has frequently released free content like new tools, levels, and characters.
Most importantly, though, it’s been amazing to see the gaming community stretching their creativity to its limits and then pushing that boundary even further. For once, gamers are on the other side of their passion for a new perspective of everything that goes into game design.
