A player on Super Mario Maker 2 just blew everyone’s minds by clearing a million levels. A million! I mean, seriously, who does that? People in the community are all over this, saying it’s like, legendary or something. And it kind of is.
So, what’s the deal with Super Mario Maker 2? Basically, it’s this game where you whip up your own Mario levels with bits and pieces from different Mario games. Even if building stuff isn’t your thing, you can just dive into an endless ocean of levels other people made. Sounds like a never-ending Mario fest, right?
Oh, and by the way, there’s this promo art floating around that looks pretty cool. Random thought, but the colors pop like candy on a rainy day. Anyway, back to the story.
This gamer, DSteves, hit their one-millionth level during this marathon livestream on Super Mario Maker 2’s big six-year anniversary. Which, by the way, is kinda mind-blowing. Eighteen hours straight of playing. Eighteen! I can’t even focus on anything for more than a few hours before my brain starts doing cartwheels.
Just think about that dedication. Six years to pull this off, averaging 456 levels a day. It’s wild! And yeah, DSteves is sitting pretty at the top of the leaderboard. Imagine the second-place person, only 834,437? DSteves left them in the dust.
People went nuts over this. Comments calling it a “legendary” achievement were everywhere. Even if DSteves drops the game now, they’d still be a legend in the community. But nope, they’re not stopping – they hit 1,000,050 completed levels just after.
And speaking of dedication, there was a time when fans of the original Super Mario Maker got together when the servers were about to go dark. Whole bunches of these levels hadn’t even been cleared yet. Enter Team 0, who went ahead and tackled them all. It was a major grind — like 40,000 courses in half a year. Makes my fingers hurt just thinking about it.
While we’re on tangents — have you noticed how the music in these games sounds like you’re being hugged by sunshine? Just thought I’d throw that out there. Anyway, what was I saying? Oh yeah, DSteves is the Super Mario Maker king, and that’s a crown well-earned.
