Recently Nintendo partnered with Facebook to introduce a hackathon event for Facebook employees to create their own levels in the upcoming Super Mario Maker for Wii U. The game will be released on September 11 worldwide and the winners of the hackathon, Doug Strait and Roy McElmurry will have their level featured and made available to the world once the game launches.

Check out the gallery below to see several Facebook employees playing and enjoying the game, but Nintendo Treehouse members Corey Olcsvary and Bill Trinen also show up. The winning level is called “Ship Love” and was chosen from more than 150 of Facebook’s employee entries.
