Favorite/Least Favorite Level Themes

[silent_]

Self-explanatory. Basically post your top five or ten favorite and least favorite level themes, like a grassland. However, I encourage you to be more specific (for instance, instead of saying grassland maybe say "overflowing grassland" or "steppe" or "dirt road farm".

Favorites:

10. Woody Tree-house
9. Poisonous Jungles
8. Adventurous Steppes
7. Mine-cart Levels
6. Space and Spaceships (as long as they aren't bland and dull)
5. Volcanic Undergrounds
4. Toxic Castles
3. Autumn Forests
2. Exploration Grottoes
1. Toad Towns

Least Favorites:

10. Factory-esque Castles
9. Bland Grasslands
8. Classical and Nostalgic Fortresses
7. Inverted/Weird Colored Levels
6. Open-spaced Sky Levels
5. Solidly Colored Levels (levels with one particular color like pink or blue)
4. Installation Levels
3. Bland Space Levels
2. Desert Levels (any kind)
1. Ice Levels (any kind)

OK, here's my top five list of favourites:

1. Castles with moving layers (it's so badass)
2. Bogstandard caves with a lot of nonlinearity
3. Mazelike ghost houses with loads of warps
4. Pyramid levels with a lot of mystique and puzzle solving
5. Simple grasslands, they're so easy to make

Here are the ones that I hate:

1. Joke levels of any kind
2. Levels that are really clashy, spammed blocks/BGOs/NPCs everywhere, and have absolutely no custom graphics (MCX85-esque levels)
3. Stupidly short and linear levels with nothing in them
4. Levels requiring the use of spinjump to progress
5. SMB2 factory levels

MCX85-esque levels

What do you mean by that?

I remember on Knux's forum there was this member called MCX85. I still know him from the fact that he makes horribly spammy and unfairly kaizo difficult levels and I downrated him for that.

Top 5:
5. Volcano/lavaland based levels
4. Expansive, not-bland Deserts
3. Ancient Temples/Shrines
2. Glaciers
1. Castle levels that aren't mazes

Bottom 5:
5. Levels without a lot of detail
4. Castle Mazes, like in Super Mario: Lost Levels (90% of the castles had a maze to them)
3. Pipe mazes
2. Ghost Houses. Ghosts show up out of nowhere.
1. Water. Water. Water. I don't like water levels

[FutureNyanCat]

Favorite levels:
1. Tanks
2. Factory
3. Futuristic fortresses/cities
4. Outer space levels

Least favorites:

4. Creepypasta levels and screamer levels (that is ear-piercing)
5. Ghost House (though I was making levels about Ghost Houses, "Chad's Mansion" in Valtteri Island: Revisited was so hard).

My personal Favourites about Levels Themes are Airships and Tanks.

Least Favourite are Underwater Levels/Sections... no reasons to ask.

[bossedit8]

2)Levels with less than 5,000 Blocks

How would you hate a Level that has less than 5.000 Blocks? That makes no sense actually because one thing not everyone is abusing blocks that much and the others less blocks means less lag because background objects prevent the whole lagspite for specific/older PC's.

Fancy way of saying a Very Short level!

7)Mathematical

Last time I checked, there's no such thing as a math SMBX level.

[Emral]

Last time I checked, there's no such thing as a math SMBX level.

yeah I felt the same when reading SMB2 Factory levels somewhere on here

[bossedit8]

Surely I can deal with the Water Levels on the original Basis but you know what I hate about the Themes? Joke Levels. They are just pointless to have on a original random Level... except it is intentional like Kyasarin's Adventure and Vengeange on R....

[MECHDRAGON777]

7)Mathematical

Last time I checked, there's no such thing as a math SMBX level.

DO not hate for saying this, but I Once made a level about π, so you can get the picture! I made a few mathematical levels in SMBX. Sorry for the confusion

[MrPunchia]

You know what I hate? Ghost Houses with stupidly hard to find exits, and the most stupidly hard exit is mandatory to get out of there. "Haunted House" from Vengeance on Redigit is probably the best example of this I could think of.
