just want to thank you for this run, it's so amazing to watch. i watched it 4 times already, often after a long day of work or similar. so relaxing to watch, yet at the same time so intense! great job, dude. also, recently, a friend of mine got TF, also inspired by runners like you. both of us couldn't believe how hard it was to just beat a level for the first damn time. and you are playing 2:37 hours STRAIGHT and breaking all records known to men. this is straight up madness.
Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear that this was such an enjoyment for people, sadly this category isn't the most popular for runners but everyone else seemed to love it haha.
Ejimak no problem! I just started trying to speedrun this and I have a quick question. For 2-boss, how do you get the double hit at the end when he's dropping down in the big egg? I can't seem to figure it out.
It's just a matter of timing and learning the patters. I'll link you the tutorial. If you are serious about learning the game just tell me and I can link you to the discord group if you want :) Tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dGiECQNovBE.html
Great run! There were lots of precise jumps throughout, but almost everything went well. My favorite level was 6-5; I didn't expect to see so many risky moves so late in the run. I also liked the high-speed jumps near the end of 7-3. And the out-of-bounds glitches in 4-B were cool; I like how DK gets duplicated.
My jaw is on the floor. My mind cannot comprehend how this is even possible. The dedication, the precision, the strategy, the consistency, the memorization... I'm blown away! You are absolutely amazing!
The game itself defines 100% as "completing all stages" which is why I don't need to collect any puzzle pieces. As you can see, after 6-boss I have 93% completion when I select the game file.
So if a game has a "congratulations you beat the game" screen instead of a game over screen when you die, would you stop playing after your first death?
Yeah...no. There are just several categories in speed running. They have established over the years since different runners prefer different challenges; after all, speed running has become quite popular - e.g. you were watching this video, too ;-) and I would enlist it under professional (gaming) sports, as well. Just look at the dudes out there, how good they are... This only results from intense training units :D
Gotta say. I'm impressed with this run. But my inner completionist thinks the games definition of 100% is a bit odd (but it makes a more fun run to watch thought)
Yeah, it kinda means the percentage of beaten levels, which is weird lol A more proper category name would be like "all levels" but we follow the game's definition
Great bosses with the exception of the broken garbage final boss.. Hitting his back is really just random luck. I've taken damage in the middle of his back and I've clipped straight through his shoulders many times. The most inconsistent hitbox ever made.
What is brown, with some parts of it having white bits and i really like it... if you guessed donkey kong then your wrong, i am thinking of a swedish chocolate which for some reason has spots of white.
Hmmm, if this is in game 100%, then what's 100%+puzzle pieces? True 100%? aaaaand apparently there's a hard mode and time attack included, I mean the hard mode 100% could be interesting because you're restricted to one hit and one character as opposed to partners + donkey kong, thus requireing certain characters for certain level completion... interesting.
Yeah. that would be like "all collectibles" or "file completion", which some people have done but it's too long of a category... Some people are planning to run "all puzzle pieces" or hard mode, but I don't see it happening in the near future
The game counts "100%" as beating all stages. If you wanna see an all puzzles run here it is one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9DXWZPMmb8o.html =)
