The $53,828 Mario 64 Chaos Mod Speedrun 

I'll be back soon guys promise.

Simple, I want you to know that despite everything that happened during the stream I consistently had absolutely no faith in you to finish with 70

I think it's crazy how much Simple has evolved, 3 or 4 years ago he'd be screaming at the top of his lungs during those last extra 10 minutes, now he just smiles and goes, "GET READY to fight the FINAL bowser a FINAL time!" and laughs. What an entertainer

I’m completely convinced chaos is not random but kaze sitting watching the stream and picking the ones that would mess simple up the most.

this event was SUCH a rollercoaster of emotions. rev hitting that heartbreaking 39/40 on the baseball minigame, simple clutching the 70 star victory under such UNBELIEVABLE tension, mike doubling the donation count by tempting us with video 13, video 13 itself, limes getting a TTT server set up for everyone (featuring a guest appearance from simple!) and pulling an extra hour so joel could rest his voice, joel getting jumpscared by hannah montana linux, mike losing to literally nothing during vinewrestle, vinny's return to Choicest Voice with new warbly mic technology, hot dad of "granny cream's hot butter ice cream" fame showing off some of the most hilariously earnest food review vids of the modern age... it's astounding how something this hype was apparently put together in less than a month, yet fundraised SO MUCH. fingers crossed for further events and crossovers like this, because holy shit, simple has some unbelievable chemistry with the vinesauce crew.

4:34 no fucking way he hits us with the nathaniel bandy after we've gone so long without him

I see the issue of "PRESS DPAD DOWN OR DIE" being too easy has been fixed in the most clever way possible.

20:41 I love Mario's slow turn to the camera here like he's saying, "we're going where I say we are going."

Mario rolling to become luigi at 5:16 was so perfectly done it was like it was intentional

The animation skip from "sent flying" to "dead" at 6:16 is one of the most hilarious things I have ever seen in Mario 64 lmao

Take your time simple. I have full faith that you'll come back better than ever!

At this point Simple has basically become the DLC of the vinesauce community.

"press d pad down to die" has to be the funniest fucking effect, as it hinges on refusing to learn an instinct and instead consciously read it every single time and when you're a dumbass that's very hard

i only started watching you recently through your 9hr Walkies video but watching that i found myself genuinely laughing out loud with your humor. It made me realize that I haven’t laughed much recently. I’ve been making my way through all your videos and i find all the laughing and smiling they have brought me has lightened the weight on my shoulders. i don’t know much about what’s happened but i hope that you can find things that will make you laugh and smile so that your burdens don’t feel as heavy either. 🧡

y'know it's not often that i'll really notice someone's been gone for a while so soon. it typically takes me months to think to myself "oh this person hasn't been uploading huh". but that feeling came quick to me with how often i quote your shit and look forward to your content. wishing you the best! you got this!

Damn, that's fucked up. On the off chance that Simple really does happen to be reading this, I wish you super well. Take the time you need because you deserve to take as long as you want, especially after all that. It's not out of the question to take a breather. But thank you so much for streaming and giving out those positive vibes that you've been giving out for years- truly one of my favorite creators he is. I look forward to whatever posts have been scheduled if there are any more and I wish the team well- hoping they're not getting overloaded with anything related to the whole situation. To everyone involved with Simpleflips' channel like Matt and Nolan, thank you all for bringing the world's funniest Dad to the internet in the form of silly videos online. I know this whole comment is really weirdly worded and that's totally my bad but I hope the positive energy can still be gleamed from it ahah And to anyone unsure of what this is talking about check simple's twitter out in the description

oh my god i missed this lmaooo

Guys it’s okay, dad just left for cigarettes it’ll be fine.

I think the code at 17:40 is translating all of the music to negative harmony, which basically takes all of the note changes and flips them (for instance, if your melody was going up by one step, it would instead go down by one step, but apply that to every note and chord change in the whole piece). It's easiest to recognize when the merry-go-round music is playing as you leave LLL. When you do that to a song you're familiar with, it almost turns into a fever dream version. Check out something like All Star Negative Harmony for an example. Kaze is wild for even thinking of something like that, let alone implementing it.

35:37 might be one of the all-time best simple moments, the entirety of that overtime really. it's like when there's a quicktime mashing event during the final boss fuckin legendary stream, so glad i caught it live lmao. i was saying 3.0 would be hard to top but this version is just spectacular

"Who else is gonna talk to you about star Height?" Pannenkoek literally has a video showing all the star heights in order This was a great video! Look forward to seeing the inevitable 120 star run

1:16 this simple edit had me in tears and I'm not even 2 minutes into this. Never change lmao

Cannot believe I got a shoutout by Simpleflips. Shoutouts to Simpleflips.

Kaze always impresses my brain into another organ with these changes.

I commented on the Chaos 3.0 video that it was basically a RU-vid Poop in gameplay form… Chaos 4.0 is REALLY a youtube poop in gameplay form. There are audio effects, visual effects, random repetition, pause buffering (same effect as stutter loops in ytps), callbacks to previous jokes (d-pad down TO die), going to random sections with little rhyme or reason, and even (kind of) sentence mixing (27:18). It’s crazy in the best way possible and Kaze outdid himself lmao

This was perhaps the greatest simpleflips stream I've ever caught live, that it was all for charity was just icing on the cake to an already legendary stream.

that one accidental super intense bowser throw at the end of the stream absolutely took me out. gotta be one of my favourite chaos moments ever lmao

I already miss him :'( hope you're well king. You've been thru some shit and you truly deserve the best. I think I speak for all of us when I say we'll be waiting for you with open arms when you're ready on your terms.

It's crazy to think this wouldn't have been possible without a shoutout to simpleflips in a hack.

The community was in remiss: Dad had never taken this long to buy cigarettes before

Press D pad down to die is the funniest thing ever

21:30 I laughed so hard when I actually got banned

7:04 Replay confirms Simple did not ground pound there

Read the doc and man your situation is genuinely scary. I feel you’re being generous by rescinding your previous statement. A lot of it seemed stressful enough but then it got to them joining discords with your middle/high school friends. I genuinely don’t know how I would proceed in that situation. Good luck with however you plan to move forward.

Just read through the whole Twitter post, Simple, I hope you're doing alright. You've always come across to me as a person spewing self-assuredness and radiative positive energy, it never occurred to me that you could be in the midst of such pain and chaos. It reads as though your past relationship trauma has so skewed your view on what it is to have a healthy relationship that even now you can't paint Leanne in a negative light. I've been there, and I know several people who have, where someone just holds such a grip over your heart that you can easily excuse any of the damage they do to you. I had my world rocked by the very same thing. I really do hope you come to distance yourself from these people that have hurt you, as sometimes closing all doors and forgiving them for yourself is the best path to healing. I truly do not believe that you are in the wrong, just acting from a place of love and pain and desperation that all coalesced into something bigger than one person can handle on their own, not to mention her continuing to insert herself into your life and groups. Some people just thrive on keeping others at their beck and call, even if it hurts them to do so. I hope you see this and know we all miss you, and are patiently awaiting your return, both to the platform, and to a mental space wherein you may find the peace you're looking for. I know how it goes with parasocial relationships and all that, but I promise you some of us have been there too, and would give the world to know that we're here for you. Until you return with that milk, father Flips.

17:35 My man got poisoned, burned AND exploded to death in one go

I just wanna say as a 3 year long fan, I'm happy for you Simple. I haven't faced the struggles you have yet, but you face through it like a king. That's honestly so dope that you've been getting into music! I also need to get more into music too, have like 50 unfinished songs in FL Studio I want to get out there somehow, be it in a game or otherwise. If you ever do upload more music I as a fan am looking forward to it! I'm glad this is turning into a good story arc route for you, and we await your comeback, no pressure

4:31 Nathaniel "Star" Bandy every fucking time

Hey Simple, if you're reading this I genuinely hope your energy never changes. You'll make it through. Take a breather, resteady and come back when you're ready. The internet can be paused. We'll be here when you're ready.

18:48 this is literally how glitchy effects like this on games make me feel too. be it a vinesauce corruption stream or chaos mario, something about the distortion makes me have so many emotions at once. ive never heard it described so similarly to how it makes me feel

4:34 That's a hell of a throwback

What a masterfully crafted overlay for your videos, it’s neither distracting nor is it obstructing anything from the gameplay. The blend of low saturation colours and interesting designs from the star pattern and the various Mario themed art from the beginning of the video just work so pleasantly. I forgot to mention the thin border that frames the whole video, it really puts everything into focus. Also, give the person who edited this video a goddamn award. I wouldn’t know where to start or how to format the edits with so much footage if I were an editor, there’s just so much personality and expression that can be seen throughout the entire video. S+

Weekly check-in to say we love you Simple! Please keep taking care of yourself, you've done so much for so many of us already. We'll all still be here supporting you upon your return.

started poking around to see what you've been up to and saw the twitter doc. please take all the time you need, simple. you've done plenty for us and you absolutely do not owe us anything.

Man, it's crazy knowing that all this was going on for so many years, you always put smiles on faces like mine and we don't get to know all the pain you feel behind the scenes. I'm grateful that you kept most of it private and didn't talk about it outside of twitter, and I'm also grateful for all the joy you made me feel through all these years I really hope you can just have a good time during your break remember to brush your teeth dad :) (and fold your laundry while you're at it)

"Who else is going to talk to you about star heights?" UncommentatedPanen: 'Am I a joke to you?'

Hey Simple wishing you all the best in everything you’re going through at the moment, we have your back and understand if you need a break from things for a while. Keep up all the amazing work

Jabroni Mike is a legend for letting Simple finish the run and repent for his many greedy moments. Great run, can't wait to see 120 stars in this!

I'm currently pretty sick but your videos never fail to bring a smile to my face, just know we're here for you once you feel ready to return, stay safe simple!

hope you're doing alright, man. every day gets a little bit better. much love.

The isometric view is my favorite effect, I'd love to play the whole game like that

Just read the tweet and man. You take all the self healing time you need my guy. We will be right here when you feel right again, no matter how long it takes.

Came across you because an old Hobo Bros video showed up in my recommended videos, when you beat a bunch of casual players in a 70 star race a few years ago. Started watching other videos of yours, and you seem like a pretty stand up dude. Keep on being awesome. Glad to be a subscriber. :)

Glad to be here with my fellow community members, truly in remiss

23:00 pannenkoek2012 made a whole video showing off the height of every star in the game and how mario would be able to fit under them

16:00 "Whoa, Mario, pal, you aren't trying to cheat, are you?"

Love you, Simple! You're genuinely my favorite content creator. I wish you the best of luck in your life. There was a point in my life where the only reason I got through the week was my dose of Walkies. Thank you for being there for me in a time no one else was 💕

Three minutes in and I just want to say that I am SO happy to see that Kaze added "Press D-pad down TO die" because that's been on my mind for YEARS. Like "what if there was a rare chance for it to say "to die" instead of "or die" AND NOW IT'S REAL

8:03 I was watching this part in full screen on my phone and I actually thought my phone began to rotate.

Miss you, dad. Hope you’re doing okay

24:22 “You guys wanna see me run up a mountain?” *as he proceeded to play cartoon sound effects whilst running up the wall*

take your time, simpleflips. we'll be here with open arms

Maannnn I'm gonna miss the simplefilps uploads, was always a highlight to my day

really happy to hear about the music producing stuff as i love your hilarious content but i also thought imposter syndrome and break were AMAZING and would love to hear more music produced by you :D

I love your content, super looking forward to more mario maker. I dunno what's going on but from the comments it sounds like you're going through a rough time. Sending love and good energy. Your happy face is part of what makes your content so good, so take whatever time you need. I'll be rewatching all of walkies for now.

i've been watching your stuff pretty regularly for a couple years now, it's always been something to look forward to help brighten my day when i did. i hope that you'll be okay after all of what happened with you during your relationship, take as much time as you need and stay safe man

Miss you Simple. Take your time ofc. Hope your editors are doing OK as well.

Just saw ur twitter and well, I didn’t read all of it because really it’s none of my business but whatever happens just know people like me will always support you. I don’t want to sound like one of those cringy “oh you had such a positive effect on my life” kinda people but you are actually the only content creator who’s had that effect on me. I even bought 5 pieces of merch (I have never bought merch from anyone else) so yeah until I see a notification from RU-vid saying you uploaded I’ll see you later man.

4:34 Nathaniel Super Star Bandy every time

I'll always support you simpleflips

10:30 insane jump, amazing calculation of the scripted routine, great entertainer he is

Dad’s been away getting milk for too long

My subscription feed feels empty

I did NOT see the Nathaniel Bandy star the first time I watched this lmao. I must have blinked. Thank you guys for keeping that alive.

18:48 Literally, Simple described exactly how I feel about liminal spaces, which a lot of people find horrifying/offputting lol

Finally, Simple makes another Pong video (feat. Mario)

Bowser was SO salty during that final fight. Kept running it back just to get 3-0'd

Simple has become such a serial Loler. just unending Lols. Edit: Absolutely cannot wait for the full 120 of this. Gimmie more chaos Mario content any day of the week.

Seems like this will be the last video for a while. Your channel has been a constant source of joy in my life. Thank you.

Not saying "goodbye" just saying "until next time." See you, Space Cowboy

I hope you've been doing well simple, I read through your lil update and im really happy you finally picked up the violen, and that your getting everything back on track, I've been watching since 2018 and it's awesome to see how far you have come. hope everything goes well! :)

You all really outdid yourself with the editing on this one! I love the new post narration style! Props to Matt and Nolan as always!

Press D-pad down TO die has gotta be the best chaos addition YET

that’s a lot of money for a marathon, let’s keep it going

i was so happy to see simple and the boys doing something together. I was live for most of it and can’t wait for future streams like this 🥺🥺

Take all the time you need to regroup and recover. Live your life. We'll all still be here in love and support when you get back, no matter how long it may take.

"Time to do the final Bowser fight one last time" I just lost it right there 🤣

Simpleflips was in remiss, he had never pressed dpad down and died like this.

I’m sad this might be one of the last simpleflips videos

that isometric camera makes me want to see a full 100% with only that camera

big fan of the scuttlebug transportation at 13:00

Another Chaos Mario for me to rewatch over and over again till the end of time!

where u at king i need my funny mario man fix

I'm sad. I just read the Twitter thing. I noticed that you hadn't posted in about 4 weeks and started wondering what was going on. Take your time is all I can say.

Love your content man, you're an inspiration that helped me more time than i can count. Don't care much about what happened, hope you'll get better soon, either making videos again or not is your choice but I hope you, as a person can get back on your feet!

The final bowser was so tense the entire time, not only with chaos bullshit but also not knowing when Mike would go live was a thrill

The level of evil genius in making 'press dpad down or die' the only prompt in the previous chaos, just to build muscle memory for the action when the text pops up... And only THEN introducing 'press dpad down to die' in the next edition of chaos-- Kaze is a sadist of the best kind lmfao

"you guys are guessing some really high times like i wasnt speedrunning this game when you were in diapers" - SimpleFlips 2022

Hey Simple, I doubt you will read this but I really hope you feel better soon. I can’t say I can relate to what you are going through but I do know that sometimes everything can feel hopeless. I just want to say that you can make it through this, no matter how bad things seem there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and I hope you can start truly feeling better soon.

edit: I should have prefaced this like this to begin with. If you don't want this here, delete it without worry. It's your channel, your comments section, and I don't want to bring a bad mood around. I understand, and I know I don't need to give permission, just want you to know I get it. and I also think too much about this kinda shit :P I'm commenting here because I feel like a tweet has the potential to be too volatile, as even from a nobody like me it could blow up if someone wanted it to. I just want to say I think that none of it should have been public in the first place, and you weren't the first one to go public about it all. I know you've worked hard at self-improvement. You lost so much weight, and I'm proud of you. You'll find a state of being where you feel more secure and confident. And since it is all public I'm going to give my opinion, but I want you to know that I know it's only that, MY opinion. You alone were NOT in the wrong on things that happened. The other party involved, whose name I'm purposefully avoiding using, showed a distinct lack of decency regarding their behavior. From what is public, what I saw from both sides, they didn't respect you enough to make compromises, and they didn't respect your space. That's not to say I dislike them, but I don't condone negativity from anyone, and I'm not about picking sides. Everyone should take something good away and improve, and I know that's what you intend to do.
