Aayway, on howlongtobeat.com, Super Mario World is listed at 7 and a half hours to beat, even though there' just 91 levels. I guess it does add up if you count dying.

Aayway, just a question I had. Also for you other developers, how long do you make your levels? I think keeping true to the same size as other Mario games makes sense to me.

I'm fairly new to making mario levels so take what I say with a grain of salt. I think that playtime isn't something that is easily measurable, a completely new player could take a while to finish a level (he might also be dying a lot) while a speedrunner can finish it in a few seconds.

Maybe you should focus on how long a level is in a more literal sense, that is, how many pixels it is across from start to finish, focus on how many obstacles there are in the level and try to aim for somewhere in that ballpark.
