Super Mario Maker!
Feh, I'm leaving mine as they are.
Too much effort to replace.
In order to keep the quality high I'd have to redesign parts of them to account for checkpoints anyway. Right now, they're balanced around the lack of those.
stars are just some internet social popularity thing. no different from "likes" or "yeahs" or whatever social networks want to use.
i make levels that i want to play, not what others want to play.
if they like my levels, good for them. i don't really care.
(you might ask why i even bother to upload levels then. i actually originally never planned to, but my brother who lives far away wanted to share levels with me, so i did the same.)

If you're making levels quickly though, the stars become a practical issue, since you hit a level limit after a time. Typically, this is why people want them.
In my case, I'm just after feedback. Thanks to LittleBigPlanet though I came into this with an idea of how to get my stuff noticed, so I'm not concerned. Working out fine. Though I'm never ENTIRELY sure how people are finding my levels considering the screwball interface for that part, but... whatever, it works.
But yeah, it really is best to make levels YOU want to play. I've always believed that this should be a core thing with all types of game design. After all, if YOU dont really want to play it... how can you possibly care enough to make it as good as it can be?
It's certainly how I make all of my own levels. And basically anything else I make.
Well I just tried out the levels from the "official" creators, in the "makers" tab, and some of those, just.... WTF.
That UndoDog one, just.... what. Most disturbing use for a Goomba and a pipe ever. The pipe at the very end of the level then makes this more disturbing. I cant un-see that.
But then there's "Bowser's Puzzle Dungeon". Just.... again, WTF. How? HOW are you supposed to beat that? I was able to beat the freaking "Frustration" level, but I cant beat this one. Most people will not get past the "falling cannons" section... let alone the pure evil that makes up the parts beyond that. This might be the single most difficult level I've encountered in this. At least for now. It's also LONG. You wont hit your first checkpoint until you get past the "Yoshi walks on lava" section, and... good luck figuring out the solution for THAT part. I eventually figured it out, and it's one bloody strange solution. It involves Yoshi eating himself (no, seriously) and then Mario jamming his head between a pair of saw blades on purpose. It just gets stranger from there. I dunno what sort of maniac it was that came up with this level, but I gotta hand it to them for being creative as heck.
Out of what looks like hundreds of thousands of attempts, this has a 0.73% clear rate.
If anyone here manages to beat this one, lemme know. I'm determined as heck to do it myself and will be trying again later tonight.
just finished updating all my courses with checkpoints. i would have done it sooner, but i was too busy playing puzzles&dragons.
well, not ALL of them. just the ones i felt really needed them. which was most of them. (knowing me, i will probably go back and update the rest anyway.)

my point of failure was that part with those falling platforms that you had to jump up at full speed for max jump height. (a little after the first checkpoint)
i just could not "for the life of me" get it right. my best attempt only got up 2 of them.

i am proud to post that i did end up clearing it. i finally got the timing right on those falling blue platforms. the rest "was a breeze"
