That's probably the ugliest Kirby game released yet.

Kirby 64 is my least favorite Kirby games. And I'm counting Air Ride.

Air Ride was cool and good if you had friends/siblings to play it with.

It has some cool powerups but you probably won't see them in this run.

I really like the marathons but I have never understood the screen layouts. To me it's as though [arbitrary sporting event] would be broadcast with the [actual sport] given half the real estate and a small camera at the sportcasters awkwardly spliced in. People reportedly like looking at the couch for that all-important hype or something, I dunno.

I guess at least it's not the year where the stream was 40% border, 30% awkward room camera and 30% game. And I guess there's livestreamer and cropping for when I'm not sending to chromecast.

I love the fact that you can combine powers. It was exciting as kid wondering what each different combination would do.

My reaction is that the visual design actively makes the game harder to play...

Why would someone choose to speedrun this game? It's not interesting mechanically, it's not difficult, it's not a fondly remembered classic. Is it just a big fish small pond situation?

Metroid sighting huh? Well, I did just pour this coffee...it will still be there tomorrow.
They did superstar the last two events I think. So now we get this. I like Kirby games a lot, but this game looks kind of bland. How early in the 64s run did this come out?

This run is awesome.

Also, never played Squeak Squad or this game. I already have the dream collection, should I get Squeak Squad?

Why is someone yelling DOUBLE FIRE why is that a thing


Also Kirby 64 is far and away the blandest Kirby game and kind of a slog to go through in a post RtD and Triple Deluxe World. It's movement speed is abysmal, no hats, and the enemy design is super boring almost all the time.

I didn't realize people actually didn't like Kirby 64, to be honest.
