Okay, yeah, who was I kidding? Of course I had to cover Super Mario Odyssey on the channel. A big bold new Mario game doesn't come around very often and as I've built my channel on the big man's brilliant game design I felt like it only made sense to chat about the game's strengths.

The Design Behind Super Mario Odyssey | Game Maker's Toolkit

Super Mario Odyssey’s success can be traced back to the design philosophies we’ve discussed on earlier episodes of Game Maker’s Toolkit. Let’s look at how these different ideas have been put into practice, in Mario’s latest game.

Interesting and concise analysis of Super Mario Odyssey. Just made it past 300 moons and can‘t wait to see what challenges are still left in the world.

It’s from the game, but i’ll leave it for you to figure out how I made it into a transparent graphic I could use on any clip ;)

Mark, do you think you'll do a GOTY vid for this month's Playlist?

This truly feels like the game that revives the old-school collect-a-thon from the 1990s. After the polarizing reception of Yooka-Laylee, I think Playtonic could easily learn from Odyssey for their next game.
