Super Mario Maker 2 - Custom Course: Rapacity's Snare
1The longest course I've made, or one of the shortest, depending on your desire for loot. The nature of the course allows you to clear it in under 2 seconds with minimal effort, and I knew that would be the path most will pick. However, I was not aware of how badly a high clear rate kneecaps the future of a course; seeing the level instantly die the moment it was uploaded was not a happy experience, but it was educational.
Also made dumb lore for no reason.
Course ID: NXS-FHB-72G
[0:00-6:48] 999 Coin Playthrough
- 0:47 It's possible to knock the Koopa out in a way where it bounces to the left and essentially gets in your way, but you can stomp it on the right, it should bounce onto the bridge when it gets up.
- 1:17 The claw is tricky if you don't know that holding Down, then pressing Jump lets you just drop off.
- 1:47 Ultra-secret 1UP, indicated by the flash when you walk over the block.
- 4:54 The big reward for getting all the way to the end, you get to clean up (most) of the house of its coins with minimal risk.
[6:48-7:02] 4F Exit
- Every floor below top has a dedicated exit to leave early "...but why would you, when there are still more riches just ahead? You've performed admirably thus far, it would be a shame to leave so close to the end, wouldn't you agree?"
[7:03-7:16] 3F Exit
- "Second thoughts? Pity, you've shown such potential, only to let slip this chance at unimaginable wealth."
[7:17-7:34] 2F Exit
- "Leaving so soon? You're leaving _a lot_ of treasure behind, and you're fine with that? Very well then, leave... and let someone with *ambition* know about the opportunity you chose to squander."
[7:34-7:59] 1F Exit
- "wtf"
[7:59-8:34] Permanently Missable 30-Coin
- If you take too long to get up, the pounder will release the Spinies, making collecting it a very lethal retrieval.
[8:35-8:44] Permanently Missable 50-Coin
- You need to go under the winged Muncher to get the coin, which becomes blocked on the return trip.
Lore Time: The Hammer Bro on the top floor is the owner, and the creatures you fight are other fortune seekers whose greed outweighed their abilities. Trapped in his house, they were forced to become pawns in his devious game.
Oooo so spooky.

Anyway enjoy this one video before I lumber back into the shadows again for who knows how long. Shame it also suffered from nasty sync and frame issues.
