After what seems like a near century wait (it was really only about 5 years), the newest Make A Good Megaman Level (MAGMML for short) has been released! I've decided to get on this as soon as possible before I start getting spoiled on the entries. I'll be playing through the levels and reading the reviews along the way and giving some thoughts on each of the levels in the description. Feel free to follow along...

With Part 2 I realized something, I can't read the reviews in the videos... it does a number on my voice. Going forward, the reviews will be in a separate video. We played the rest of tier 1 here and it didn't disappoint with it's, well, disappointment.

Not Delivering On Promises - You need to be very careful with self-deprecation. It can backfire tremendously. I know this all too well. If this level didn't have infinite ammo, it likely would take my place for worst so far. I looked everywhere for the Token and despite finding the invisible ladder that the judges mentioned in their comments, I didn't find it. I'll have to go back when I have more upgrades. Also, nice Quickman edit... throw back to No Constancy I believe.

A piece of cake, but with aesthetics - My favorite level so far, but it's not saying much. A piece of cake is right though. It was a nice breather after the previous levels.

The Cave Level That Exists - Oh boy! I've expressed my hatred for double battles already, but taking Bubbleman out of the water is bad enough, but you HAD to throw another water based boss and one not everyone is familiar with. That was painful and even hard with weapons. STOP WITH THE DOUBLE BOSSES! Good if you take two that compliment each other, but just throwing two bosses together because, is not good game design. Also, yes there's a Jojo reference, no I didn't get it.

Cycle Facility - Like A Piece of Cake, there are some jarring visuals here, but not quite as bad. Also, hidden meme room with goodies. Including an Energy Element? Why? It's totally not necessary.

The Level Equivalent of An Old Man Rambling At You - Oof... Look, I know I'm not the funniest person in the world, and I have nerve criticizing someone else's attempts at humor. But seriously, have someone look over your work if you are going to attempt it in a contest setting. Without doing that, you aren't going to make the next Guts Man's Asteroid. I didn't even bother reading the end signs, just cause I had had it with the joke at that point. Also double boss, annoying buster only, but actually fun with weapons I'll give you that.

Ultimate Level - First attempt? There's potential for sure, but it's "ultimately" a mess. I think if you kept the autoscroll, bombs, and PU switches and focused the level on that you'd have something. You need to make the levels as if you've never played the games before. Introducing gimmicks the way you did at the beginning is rough. The level just needed more focus, having others play it would of helped immensely. Would it be top tier? Probably not, but it might of pulled it out of the bowels.
