Can you Beat Ristar Without Jumping?

- Опубликовано: 17 янв 2023
- Following on from the recent Dynamite Headdy No Jumping challenge, I've decided to try the same with another limb-throwing Sega Genesis platformer game, the kinda brother of Sonic, Ristar!
This time, however, I thought I'd switch up the rules a little and try to see the mininum number of jumps it takes to complete the game...

Honestly, Ristar was the character that made me realize Sega wasn't just the "Sonic company" and let me enjoy all of the wacky stuff the company has done :D
And then they turned into the "Sonic Company."
@@Randomguy-ih5sd Huh?
@@zap648 It's a joke. Look how many Sonic games they've made compared to any other of their franchises in recent time.
@@Randomguy-ih5sd In the last five years?
@@Randomguy-ih5sd At least Nintendo tried to acknowledge they make more than just Mario games.
0:37 Now let's star-t. Ha, gotcha.
Ristar's designers need to learn from Sonic Team and remember there may come a day when someone challenges themselves to beat your platform game without any platforming. Gotta cater to them as well, maybe give Ristar an invincible sentient asteroid sidekick who can carry him if he doesn't feel like moving.
Wasn't it Sonic Team that developed Ristar, though?
Or am I mistaken?
My first introduction to this game was unlocking it in Sonic Mega Collection. As a kid, I was so bummed out by the fact that it was just some 'random' game instead of more sonic. Nowadays it's become one of my favorite games on the sega genesis lmao
That's funny, that's literally how it went for me as a kid! At first I wasn't interested because "eww that's not Sonic" but then one day I got bored and tried it out and oops, I ended up loving the game and now it's one of my favorite games! It's still a very good game.
Same!
Love this game, I give a big up to Bpblu for introducing me to this game & still love watching his playthrough of this game to this day, RIP man! 🙏
this really makes me happy, ristar is one of my favourite sega characters :)
6-2 has a speedrun trick with a torn wall which lets you get to the teleporter with just only one jump instead of two
I've made a TAS that also tackles this challenge (ruclips.net/video/7S2V0b9IQo0/видео.html) and there are some jumps that can be avoided:
1-Boss - you can grab the walls to climb it, but the timing is precise
2-1 - You can climb practically any wall using the grab move, and that applies to the walls that are close to the water
2-2 - I dont think swimming should be counted
3-1 - you can do the miniboss if you're extremely lucky
3-2 - you can climb the pole, and then grab the ceiling to move to the end
4-1 - if you leave the metronome in a place where ristar can grab it while dropping from the platform, you can throw it to the platform, skipping a jump. you can grab the metronome while jumping out of the monkey bars. Wall climbing also saves so many jumps its ridiculous. but 2 of the jumps are actually impossible
4-2 - those jumps are skippable with wall climbing once again
5-2 - there are no improvements, i just wanted to say that this level sucks
6-1 - that jump can be skipped with wall climbing
6-2 - the second room is actually possible jumpless, if you grab the enemy to get up to the platform, if the grab killed the enemy, and the gem is close enough. you can skip that moving platform jump, and that also aplies to the room with the multiple platforms. the strat to doing room 8 is pretty complicated, so I recommend watching the video
Overall, you only actually need 20 jumps! 2 in 4-1, 13 in 5-2, and 5 in 6-2, but you still had a great attempt!
Edit: I've discovered a save in 4-1 that saves 1 A press in the any% run, and 2 in the 100% run!
Damn, why’s nobody talking about this?
Im gonna subtract one from the final score for the underwater jump button, which acts instead to propel you forward
13:08 Oh come on he's just doing a little dance he ain't hurting anyone.
I love Ristar. Thanks for making this, I wish more people would talk about this gem!
This game is unbelievablyy underrated for how polished and well made it is
I am so glad that one of my favorite content creator's is shedding some light onto this wonderful game
Keep up the good work man 👍
I'm going to go by Mario Odyssey rules as what counts as a jump: pressing the button underwater does not, pressing it at the surface does.
I still can't believe that they managed to made the game so colorful, more than two decades passed and Ristar is still one of the best looking 2D platformers ever.
I bet the flashing fire was supposed to be some sort of weird transparency effect, flickering on and off to seem like it mixed into the background
21:45 You could've also used the Star Handle to avoid the enemies. That's the reason why it was placed there lol
Ayy it's my boy Ristar. Love this game, was too young to play it when it came out but I loved it on the Wii Virtual Console.
finally a ristar video, i hope people make more challenges like that to this game
This was really well done also Ristar is a pretty underrated character, would be cool to see him make a good comeback someday
I love ristar! :)
16:30 i was not ready for that
Yoo thanks for picking my idea!!!
Congrats on having it picked!
I can't beat this game WITH jumping.
ristar is way too underrated
Fun fact :this video temporarily disappeared from my subscription box, it's back now. I just think that was wierd.
These challenges are AWESOME!!
Great video! I need more people to talk about Ristar, and do things like this! I love the game and it's soundtrack, mor people need to experience it! Also I've never played Dynamite Headdy, but since you mentioned it's a rival or parallel to Ristar, I'll try it out someday.
I'm kinda shocked you didn't make a joke about the blue orbs looking like puyos.
Nice to see you make a video of my Other favorite Sega Genesis game besides Dynamite Headdy! It was also more enjoyable to watch the entirety of the playthrough, this time counting the total jumps!
I cracked laughing when 'the' gap just before the first boss prevented you from advancing, as well as the bunch of jumps you had to do at the end of the snow ice level. It must have been so annoying lol. However, there were some really nice moments when I didn't think it would actually be possible to skip some of the parts but you surprised me, such as in the fire world.
It was a really satisfying video. I wish you also made an "awards" just like you did at the end of the Dynamite Headdy video, but oh well, that's you spoiling us :)
3:32 That's what she said
This protag looks like the vibe check smiley
I don't think I actually knew you could "jump" underwater, and got stuck at that damn turbine that gave you trouble. Now I feel like a real dip.
You can hit Greedy's projectile "belt" and turn them into stars
3:33 we’ve all thought of that some point in time
24:51 Ristar definitely plays Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
I was playing Ristar when this notification appeared. Leave my mind alone
God, I’m glad there’s none of that "waffle found host" comments in the section.
Anyways, great old school gaming content, git. I’m particularly a fan of videos without voice but it’s generally a treat to see your videos with voice every now and then.
There was one, but I deleted it. I can tell already it's going to be the worst meme ever because there's literally no reason it gets posted and that's what makes it funny, apparently.
@Makaibros i'm also grateful that stupid meme does not exist in this video
Lmao I just beat Ristar yesterday

Can you beat Bionic Commando on NES without jumping ? (:3)
That 'Hasta La Vista, Baby" bit just reminded me of Team Star. Would Ristar have to do the weird hand movements when saying Hasta La Vistar if he joined them? probably, haha
Holy shit my favorite game
Impossible to play this game without jumping... To that boss soundtrack
I thought you weren't going to do voice over here because you said that you didn't enjoy doing it in your Dynamite Headdy video. Was doing the voice over any more enjoyable here?
Not really, I probably will do it rarely again from this point on.
OMG RISTAR !!!!
I do realise now that some platforms shown in this video that require a jump are kinda useless. Why are those here ? Those do not provide any challenge (except here...).
Just take a platform at the beginning of the level, you must jump. No enemy before, no enemy after. Is it there because "it makes the player press button" ? In this case, can we consider it is a lazy level design ?
If anybody want to share their point of view I'm interested !
Since you already did a minimum jumping video for Dynamite Headdy, can you try to beat Gunstar Heroes, Alien Soldier, Mischief Makers, Silhouette Mirage and Sin and Punishment without jumping? They were all made by the same developer as Dynamite Headdy.
This is so unfair ristar is so forgetted but it might be cus it was released at the end of the sega gensis life span😢😢😢
3:20 yeah I expecting that this gap in ground will mess you. I played in Ristar many times and I think this gap is just for design style to make view less blant
Also, 5-2 almost always glitched on my cartridge at start
16:18 uh what happened here
Can't you grab the bubble in the water current pushing segment of 2-2
16:19 anyone else noticed the glitchy mess that the level is at the start?
16:19 wtf is that glitchy mess
I really like the idea of a music themed level, which stands out among the standard grass, water, ice, etc. stages. It's not something that, say, Mario does often when it comes to level variety
3:32 That's what she said
That's what everyone who had sex without love said
I already made that joke bro
