Megaman Maker Levels: 179,166 User-Authored Platformer Levels

179,166 user-created Mega Man Maker levels form a corpus for training text-to-level models. Each row contains an ASCII tile grid and a natural-language prompt, ready for direct tokenization. The dataset was authored by 'elliottash' and last updated on 2026-05-23.

Use Cases

• Train text-to-level generative models based on the ASCII tile grid representation.
• Research procedural content generation algorithms for platformer games.
• Analyze patterns and design trends in user-created platformer levels.
• Benchmark level generation systems against a large corpus of human-made content.

Strengths

• Contains 179,166 individual levels, providing a substantial corpus for model training.
• Levels are pre-processed into ASCII grids and paired with text prompts, reducing preprocessing effort.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
