Boxmaker is an action game that similar to Super Mario, it is more than a game that the players can pass the different level of its game setting. You can also design your own game mission or take a challenge to the missions designed by others.
One of the greatest features of Boxmaker is that the players can design or create the different interesting missions by using various tools and scenes. It will bring you a unique experience by uploading your own missions in public, which will be available to download and share with the other players for challenge. What’s more, all the players are easily to find the most popular game missions made by the different player according to the updated rank of popularity.

The game that you all thought was dead is now back from the dead!
This re-release of the game seems to have removed the copyrighted characters that were found in the last version though this version still has the Mario theme on the piano when placing objects in the "Edit" mode which I assume falls under fair use as it isn't a direct rip of the original sounds but an interpretation of them. There also might be some ripped sound files from Super Mario 64 just with a higher pitch when doing run jumping so this game might be taken down again for copyrighted content.
The game still has the same issues the last version had which I will list below:
-You cannot delete your world from the database once it is uploaded
-You cannot delete your comments once they have been posted
-You cannot delete your replays once they are posted nor can you delete others on your levels
-Some words are still in Chinese
-The game seems to get slightly blurry when making it fullscreen
-Several objects in the game are blurry, mainly the player and NPC's when scaled up
-There seems to be a little mouse input lag, the in-game cursor isn't as precise as it should feel
-The movement of the player character seems slippery and not as precise as you would expect
Suggestions to make the game better:
-Fix everything above
-Fix the horrible hitboxes for the enemy characters
-Continually add new blocks, enemies, and more
-The ability to create underwater levels to mix things up
-The chat blurb system from Mario Maker (Chat bubbles within the levels, including drawings)
-Work on your presentation (Create a Steam Store Page that's actually informative and interesting to read)
-Achievements
-Multiplayer functionality
-Modability
Overall this isn't a bad game but it has its flaws. I'm really hoping the developer behind this actually puts time into improving this game as time moves on, it would be extremely nice to get a decent Mario Maker-like game on the Steam store so part of me is hoping that this isn't a cash grab.
Edit: BoxMaker includes copyrighted sounds from Super Mario 64, the Long Jump from Super Mario 64 is present in BoxMaker but with the speed and pitch shifted up to mask it. The jump in BoxMaker can be accomplished by double tapping left or right and jumping three times in succession. I directly recorded the sound, converted to a .wav file, and altered it in Audacity to try and get it back to the way it originally sounds to make sure it was the actual ripped sound.
Decide for yourself:
Super Mario 64 - Long Jump
Super Mario 64 - Punch

servers don't work. I think everyone who has been coned of their money should take a case against steam for still selling it. these company's just get away with it all the time making billions

This game while unabashedly lifting as much as possible from super mario maker, makes the game its own as well. There are some issues, namely the lack of any ability to delete things and the exp system seems to not be as intuitive as it could be. If you are wanting a maker experience this game delivers on that premise well however. The movement mechanics could have some better tweaking here and there but it works just enough that with practice you can do what you need and want to do with it. The level designer itself is quite well done, though I wish more items interacted with eachother more.
It should also be noted that there is no attempt at censorship which, I personally do not have an issue with that but if you do not have the skin for children swearing, it is good to note.

It's a great game that just needs more people and bigger level making community that would make this game truly incredibly. Hopefully they could add more characters for you to play as since it seems they will sticking to one style for the game! This is truly an amazing sandbox/platformer!
Some things that would make this game amazing though I think are unlikely
1. A form of Multiplayer.
2. A race a ghost of player mode.
3. More Backdrops and Block Themes for spice levels up a bit.
4. A list of Music to use for Levels.

I think if Nintendo never releases Mario maker for PC, this is a good game that is like it in the meantime. The servers are up, and there a lot of choices for levels. I just wish you can edit textures and add different scenes (Like water of forest) and I would 10. For now:

It WAS a nice game, but when i uninstalled and reinstalled it, it no longer works. When it trys to connect to the server, it says "Connection lost, try again". I don't know if it forgot my account when i uninstalled the game, but now I can't play it. I still recommend, just don't uninstall it then reinstall it lol

Ну да, это игра-убийца Super Mario Maker, но лично мне понравилось.

Yes, this is Super Mario Maker rip-off, but that is a good game for me.
