The route for breath of the wild any% no amiibo has had MASSIVE changes.

For one, now there's a way to clip out of the chamber of ressurection and climb the terrain surrounding it so as to immediately get into the snow area of the plateau.

And stasis launching is too inefficient, bokboblin launching allows for link to launch himself increadible distances.

It's a treat to watch.

Oh, and this Japanese runner is playing in french.

Recoil during the bullet time stacks.

I really love how all the little pieces in the route come together. No tower cutscene so they have to clip into the 4 shrines. The btb (bullet time bounce) launches should kill you without a glider but there just do happens to be a fall state reset glitch to stop damage.

Cool, thanks

Pwup chat: silent hill downpour is being ran, and the cut scenes are so long the runner is also playing silent hill homecoming while they're playing lol

i once joked with the runner that such a thing would probably be possible because I was making GBS threads on Downpour and well that's where that ended up

can't fault a power move

My favorite moment was him launching himself on a tree to get the glider like he's loving Tao Pai Pai.

the alternative is actually playing enter the dragonfly so gently caress that

also excuse you it requires a headbash placed in a not particularly precise location. You can't just fall into it!

I'm now the proud owner of the world record for every individual level in Startropics aside from the first and last. Mostly because not a lot of people have run ILs but eh, I'll take it! Some of the times are pretty good.

You're not bad, Startropics is just rude as gently caress. Fantastic game though.

Best thing about the small speedrun community is the folks with top times almost always show up any time someone is playing it.

Yeah it's great. My first time streaming it the world record holder hopping in and talked me through a bunch of stuff I was having problems with, and afterwards started streaming himself and walked me through the whole game screen by screen. It was really surprising.

We've had a few new players lately pick the game up, and are thinking about organizing weekly races on SRL too for motivation to finish runs; last week was our first one, probably Sundays. The community is really friendly and helpful.

Discord link here if anybody is interested in getting started!

Man, the lufia ancient cave speedrun tourney was short but great, just finished the wild card race (runners up of the four prior races plus one eliminated player who all the other players voted to get one final chance due to gumption, entertainment value, etc) and it ruled. Definitely worth a watch, I watched it at 1.5x speed and it's still totally watchable at that speed, useful for binging the whole thing in less time without missing anything

I'm heading on vacation tomorrow for two weeks and part of that vacay is going to SGDQ. It'll be my first year going (and doing some hosting duties) so I'm pretty excited! Just looking at the schedule as it stands, what are you guys thinking are going to be can't-miss runs this year? There's a lot this year that looks pretty interesting to me.

Windmill slam Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project.
Other runs I think won't disappoint: DuckTales 2, Prey, Monster Boy in the Cursed Kingdom, Super Bomberman 2.
