For those unaware, Super Mario Maker for the Wii U disabled uploading levels in March of 2021, and is shutting down its servers entirely in April of this year. I don't know if there's a good estimate on how many levels have been created in SMM's lifetime, but in 2016 Nintendo reported about 7.5 million levels created by players, so the number is High.

In the meantime there is a community dedicated to taking every level that has yet to be cleared for the first time, and clearing it. Some of these levels take 6-10 hours of attempts to beat, and some of them use obscure glitches that no one else has discovered. Nevertheless, as of a few months ago there were less than 20,000 uncleared levels and currently there are less than 1,000.

Nothing remains but the most difficult platform experiences you can imagine. The community is confident they can "beat Super Mario Maker" but the deadline is fast approaching. It will be a tight race, and this is shaping up to be a potentially historic moment.

As of yesterday, all levels uploaded in 2016 have been cleared.

There are now 10 levels left.

We're looking at a full clear by Friday.

It is Thursday, Ides of March Eve, and there are 3 levels left before every single level in Super Mario Maker has been beaten by someone.

Imagine being the person that made a level so hard that literally every level ever made in this engine has been beaten except yours and 2 others.

Additional update, March 15th. There is now 1 level remaining.

This image is the entire level. The end goal is at the red door at the right, which is connected to the red door at the top left. Meaning if you follow that little zig-zag upward to that door, you beat the level.

The level takes 17 seconds to beat. Or it would, if anyone but the level creator had ever beaten it.

At the exact time of writing this post there have been 92,333 attempts at beating this level across 1,115 players. That means on average each person has made 83 attempts at this 17-second level. According to youtuber/Mario player Grand POOBear, yesterday it had somewhere around 50,000 attempts, which means that over the course of about 24 hours Mario has died 40,000 times to this one level.
