So, I am not sure if you can understand me. If you need me to relay this information to you in a different language, please let me know via Discord or the forum threads for your submissions. Otherwise, I will proceed under the assumption you can read and understand my words. I will copy and paste this same message in all the submissions you have sent recently, as they all share the same underlying issues.
I am not entirely sure you understand the workflow of TASVideos and its goals, and this is a bit worrisome because it is making us look a bit like assholes. Believe me, I want nothing more than for you, or anyone, to get into TASing. I want to see the ember of your interest evolve into a flame of passion that drives a great TASer in the future. For now, focus on the fundamentals of learning the craft, redoing parts, taking your time, learning from other input files and other people. I want to see you show your work to others, listen to what they have to say, and show up with something better.
In the meantime, I have to inform you we have indefinitely suspended your permissions to submit TASes to the workbench. Feel free to use our User Files to share whatever you are working on, and again, I encourage you to share it with others and learn as much as you can. You can do better.

From what I gather by watching.
There's no fast acceleration.
You are bonking into walls.
There's no planning in that final level where you proceed to go forward only to go backwards so you can actually go above the map.
Also there's a preexisting TAS on YouTube which is faster than this:

agreed, from what i saw while sync verifying this TAS, the gameplay looks super sloppy and easily improveable with random slowdowns at certain points. ill see how much of this i can improve once im home
I don't know if you'd want that, Kotya. Online services for the first Super Mario Maker were shut down in April 2024, and (as far as I know) the tools needed to make TASes of individual levels in Super Mario Maker 2 are not very talked about aside from the required Nintendo Switch emulation, which is already difficult to maintain without Nintendo slamming such tools with DMCA notices and taking them down. To be fair, it is newer hardware and technology.
Kotya. You need to pay attention to the comments and criticisms you are receiving about your submissions. There are issues in your runs that need looking into; they are what's preventing them from being accepted and published. And this is not me trying to be harsh; we're trying to help guide you and put you on the right path. There are many other users who went through the same path of submitting suboptimal runs before they got better and better, and I do hope you get to be one of them. Improvements don't happen in an instant though; they take time, whether it's days, months, or even years.
Ask in the forums, ask in the Discord server, and look up existing runs of whatever game or hack you've made a TAS of before you actually submit. If in doubt, the Userfiles is 100% your friend.
I try to check in whenever possible, at least when I'm feeling it.
Look out for yourself and each other; there's quite a bit going on.

How about instead of looking at future games, focus on actually making a TAS that can stand on its own with the tools that are provided.
You've been here for 5 months, and all that you have shown for it is that you're able to find the save and load state buttons.
Can you please instead take your time and use the tools available to you in FCEUX or whatever TAS emulator you use after and use the userfiles.
Go again when you've optimized all you can.
Super Mario Bros. also has a resource page with tons of information, and two more pages that go to external sites.
Please actually use the resources if you continue to do anything Super Mario Bros. related, or actually take the time if you do Dig Dug, Star Force or sure Mario Maker 3DS.
