ZPL is insane. The guy also makes mario kart custom tracks, and he remade almost all of the SNES mario kart tracks in MKWii in a day. Making ONE custom track usually takes days-weeks. This guy speedran it all and they’re amazing. I’m so glad to see such a big youtuber giving one of the most skilled modders the recognition he deserves.
Agreed, ZPL has a ton of talent with making custom maps in Mario games. Having the ability to make good race tracks and good open maps for a platformer is insane.
It wouldn't be a good idea for all kingdoms, but for some I wish the bench was just like in the air (or on some pillar or something) near the odyssey, you can obviously see it but it takes some work to reach and you get a good view of the whole kingdom
I’m glad that custom kingdoms are being created, but all of these lack major focal features. An extremely important part of level design are elements that only appear once to give an anchor point to help with navigation. Plus they make exploration and the level as a whole more interesting.
A fair few of these look to me Mario Kart tracks with enemies and moons, rather than specifically designed platforming worlds. Visually they look great, but from a level design perspective those definitely aren't built for a platformer.
Oh, that explains why they didn't quite feel right to me. All I could say was that they're a bit same-y. Definitely very cool, very visually impressive, and once the guy levels up his level design skills, he's going to be making some absolutely amazing things.
If the season kingdom was in the actual game I can totally see it being set so the season it is in when you first visit it is set to whatever season your switch clock says you're in
These maps don't feel like Mario maps to me. Something about the positioning, and I think the way the light interacts with the blocks is weird. But I think these are meant to be inspired by like Super Mario World or older Mario games in general. So it's cool to see these in a 3D environment, and certainly pretty amazing for one person doing this as a hobby, but I wouldn't say it qualifies as being dubbed a fan-made sequel
Gotta say, I'm not too big on the whole cj's head inflating and shaking thing. The rest of the editing (zooms when he's talking and the gameplay isn't important included) feel great, but not so much the weird head stuff.
i came up with the best meme speedrun. bench friends% the goal is to get the "bench friends" moon in metro kingdom as fast as possible the run ends as soon as the animation for getting the moon is over (normal odyssey, i just came up with it while watching this)
for anyone who still thinks the pokémon would win please refer to that goomba stack for a visualization for how the lions would deal with flying pokemon
@@JamesMac yes, but cj said mkwii, not 8 deluxe, i will not argue with you though as it was a small mistake, i just felt like pointing that out considering i found it a bit funny

ZPL is so talented, king of mkwii custom tracks and odyssey custom maps. Nintendo should hire him
Probably will take all his money and ban him from Japan, because Nintendo
Knowing Nintendo they'd rather sue him than hire him lol

@@nicerhabara yea
NINTENDO, HIRE THIS MAN!!
I can totally see CJ holding Mario at knife point saying "Subscribe or the Italian Man dies"
😳
Came for the custom maps stayed for the goomba stacking
6:15 Damn. It sounds like CJ has gotten collectors anxiety in this huge open world RPG. I think I know just the video for him.
do you ever get collector's anxiety?
you think you're funny?
you think you're funny- you are.
you are funny.

Well that's why some fan made stuff doesn't feel as "real" as official games.. they know what they are doing in official releases lol
A fair few of these look to me Mario Kart tracks with enemies and moons, rather than specifically designed platforming worlds. Visually they look great, but from a level design perspective those definitely aren't built for a platformer.
@@Jademalo like how the cave has a very clearly defined track that looks more refined than the rest, but hey very well done an nice lookin
Agreed, these are beautiful maps but the level design could definitely use some work.

ZPL's MKWii custom tracks always have some of the best visuals, and it seems his custom Odyssey worlds keep that trend.
ngl the growing of CJ's head when he screams was funny at first, but got repetitive quickly
yeah I’m really not a big fan of that
He did it like three times 😭😭 how are zoomers so unable to comprehend even a slight amount of repetition?? The west truly has fallen!

That was a pretty sick montage. What a bop
whats the song called?
@@Synoyd 🤷♂️ lol
@@Synoyd it’s a remix of a song from sonic CD called palm tree panic, probably good future version.
@@Synoyd Sonic CD Palmtree Panic Japanese Present version.
@@atomiclizard6090 It sound like Present, rather than good future.
When will cj learn that goombas fall apart when they walk up slopes
The cave kingdom really reminds me of the star road thing from Mario RPG, it's so good
I remember watching the Stream!
The goomba squishing was really satisfying lol
Me to the crsytle kingdom bench is the best
The "Do I have 6" killed me

Anyone else recognize haunted kingdom is a Galaxy level
Loved seeing ghostly galaxy return in this as haunted kingdom was one of my favorite galaxies
Now we want a bench% speedrun, you have to sit in every bench of every kingdom
(For around 8 minutes in) Already was subscribed. The content on this channel was too entertaining to miss out on even back then.
The Animal Crossing stage is a track from Mario Kart 8 DLC. It has 4 versions, each having a different seasons, hence the season changing pipes.
THX FOR PLAYING!!!
8:15 HAUNTED KINGDOM IS THAT ONE LEVEL IN MARIO GALAXY WHERE YOU SAVE LUIGI FOR THE FIRST TIME
Gotta say, I'm not too big on the whole cj's head inflating and shaking thing. The rest of the editing (zooms when he's talking and the gameplay isn't important included) feel great, but not so much the weird head stuff.
Yup, I like seeing experimentation from editors, but I don't think that one should stick :)
I didn't like the zooms either, I think it was done poorly, made me dizzy (an instant cut but NOT mid-sentence works best)
@@buttonasas I liked it, but if it's making anyone dizzy or sick then it should go.
@@blarg2429 turns out I had a fever, ha. So it's probably not as dizzying.
@@buttonasas Lol. Hope you're feeling better now.
1:17 THE BENCH!
3:25 GOT A MGOT A MOOT A M😂
I wonder if it'd be possible to make a framework mod to insert custom worlds as level selection options, instead of having to override existing worlds
12:48 goombas discover the power of unionizing
"He added a BENCH"
hollow knight player's having a stroke after hearing the word bench
Hide n seek potential is off the roof
Hopefully the moon gets replaced with either an asteroid belt or Mars!
The BIG Goomba stack reminded me of those Ice Scream Scoop stacking games
The do the dew, like Mountain Dew, sincerely, Scooby Dooby doo
Seeing several references to Galaxy was pretty cool
Would be sick if in crossing kingdom there were themed NPCs, instead of signs.
Also, this all looks insanely cool
We have created yertle the turtle out of goombas. What more could you want
Cjya:ah,this is not real stairs! Oh hello moon
Yeah, the head inflation feels really weird…
17:56 for the most satisfying thing ever
When the bench is the worst part of the kingdom, you know you've got a good one.
9:10 Bonking Over It with ZPL.
Imagine finding a natural skycraper goomba stack while in a stroll at the park
2:00 it looks like it says ''you got a maggot''
i came up with the best meme speedrun. bench friends%
the goal is to get the "bench friends" moon in metro kingdom as fast as possible
the run ends as soon as the animation for getting the moon is over (normal odyssey, i just came up with it while watching this)
There was a bench in the toxic flame kingdom nxt to the Odyssey in the toxic part
someone should make a mod to find out what the max goomba stack is
I started coughing the same time cjya started coughing
absolute banger of a cjya video
I was on stream for this one!
Bro failed NNN with that goomba ground pound
I cannot find the previous video you talked about in the beginning...
*Sadness*
Alternate title: CJ's Goomba arc
i am forever tramatized
Time to watch this now.
The toxic side of toxic flame world has a bench to the left of the odyssey
this is art ngl
I watched this stream. Nice vid.
You haven't seen CJ suffer until you make it to a Rh Fever stream
2:01 Up on the Lolipopden Away in the Corne Giant Candy Hil
you had 44 goombas in the rrace track lol
love the custom kingdoms
It feels like more of Ice Cream Kingdom's platforms should have been rotating
IMAGINE A WUHU ISLAND KINGDOM
Should have added a motersycle for the Mario cart track
Reminds me of the video I saw called "I made portal 3 because Valve won't"
The Goomba tower is my favourite thing
Just waiting for the Hide 'n Seek games in these maps
0:06 I MADE IT TO A CJ CZcams VIDEO LETS GO
While watching this i learned how to drink upside down
4:09 that's mario kart 8 lol
ahhh so he put galaxy in odyssey… two of my favorite all time games. nicely done😌
4:07 Cj says Mario kart Wii but plays a Mario kart 8 clip
Really impressive. These could be fun for hide n seek!
ZPL, wonderful guy, promotes benches.
Achievement Get! Bench Inspector
Haunted kingdom gave me Mario Galaxy vibes.
It is literally mario galaxy assets smashed together
@@amitthehuman I know. Hence why I said it gave me the vibes.
I really like this mod
Watching this video makes me wish the nintendo made a Mario Odyssey maker
ngl, haunted kingdom reminds of a galaxy in the mario galaxy games. I don't remember which one of the ghost themed galaxies tho.
great video cj
ITS THE ZPL!
He Used The Fortnite Bushes 😆
i just couldnts stay in the nnn after that one gumba stack...
All of these just looked like Mariokart tracks and felt wrong without vehicles
for anyone who still thinks the pokémon would win please refer to that goomba stack for a visualization for how the lions would deal with flying pokemon
4:11 ''the creator first started making mario kart wii tracks'' ah yes good job editor that is defnitely mario kart wii and not 8 deluxe
he meant he was remaking mario kart wii tracks in 8 deluxe
@@pixel3042 no he didn’t, zpl did start off making mkwii tracks and the editor put in footage of mk8dx lol
@@CowMaam Cow Man!
Editor here, that was a custom track ZPL made
@@JamesMac yes, but cj said mkwii, not 8 deluxe, i will not argue with you though as it was a small mistake, i just felt like pointing that out considering i found it a bit funny
What if this dude made an actual fan made smo2 but with features from past games as you progress
Now I wanna play animal crossing, thanks for the nostalgia cj!
can't wait for you to speedrun bench%
I am glad theres finally a smo 2! years of waiting but its here! sad that nintendo didnt make it though.
Cjay is so good at Mario Odessey!
The first new level seems like something out of Pandora (World from Avatar)
YES Mario Odyssey ZPL% speedrun
Hide and seek on these? I don’t even know if that’s possible.
Good as always
idk why but the editing with cj's head getting bigger infuriates me so much
Cool video, CJ
