Great guide! Here's a handful of additional useful information and details (feel free to steal all or some of this comment). 17:02 If you miss the jump from the branch to the statue, there's a backup that's slightly faster than going back to the vine: ruclips.net/video/OlljOfUDeao/видео.htmlsi=mHlVfrM6Gxco2Teg 17:31 If you get stuck in the corner almost completely clipped in, two punches seem to do the trick to get completely through 21:34 I understand that the old Bittenbinder's Camp backup is really complex w/o Smash Strike, but there's a newer really easy and fast backup that should absolutely be mentioned: ruclips.net/video/TZpNpNw2DTk/видео.htmlsi=8dz0jS_NwIWtmVOF (a good angle and jump timings is all you need) 26:20 On PAL this isn't possible. You'd have to either climb the same way from the other side of the tree (finnicky) or use the vine to jump on the tree's branch. See any of Ripper's PAL runs. 28:45 Technically you can also do a standing triple jump from a bird statue, but I think I'm the only one doing that ^^" 40:07 If you jumped too short but react fast enough, you can crouch kick to cancel/delay the hot coals damage and safely land on the Dash platform: ruclips.net/video/77k5jgkIoXA/видео.htmlsi=aJzXtyogj3LW2YTf (that vid was in the context of jumpless, you can simply jump out of the crouch kick which is a lot more consistent). 45:45 If you fall behind the load zone like you did there, there's a backup to clip under the ground: ruclips.net/video/B8lnF1AAANI/видео.htmlsi=F-_SnfdzXVJHzr_7 51:45 If you're a *reallyyyyyy* good masher you can go OOB and cut even more corners! ruclips.net/video/ydnr1fCTNJw/видео.htmlsi=IZJaZWjTCaJO9kFo 54:06 If you start rolling, you can't jump off the button, so you can mash early to skip the cutscene as soon as possible 1:03:10 You can dash from a scorpion to close the gap. It's a small consistency improvement. 1:12:30 Jaguar/Supaï 2 has 2 phases, at half-health it'll get more aggressive and attack faster, which changes the amount of time you should wait between spin kicks. Bonus info: if you are playing on Dolphin Emulator and are recording using OBS, you can use github.com/bkacjios/m-overlay as an input display !
God I love this game, back in the day I was about 4-5 and I got this on the Wii and it took me about a month to beat. By far the most memorable game for me. I wish I could play it again.
I agree, I loved this game so much as a child. That's what made me first get into speedrunning this game! You can play it now on emulator if you have a computer that can run it.

Jayman's truly the man. Awesome tutorial out of nowhere. 5:09 A note on triple jumps : When you roll, there is a two-frame window where you need to jump to perform a triple jump. This window occurs about half a second after you release the roll button (Harry stands back up after this delay), although it tends to change depending on the angle of the surface you're standing on, which makes this a bit annoying. The reason why this is possible is because you can actually jump while rolling, the only requirement being that you must be moving as you press jump. That's why just nudging the left stick forward is enough to start a triple jump.
At 42:00 some Notes for monke temple skip to try to help people. The ledge grab is on the very corner of that 2nd ledge. So you have to kind of hold left and a little down to make it truly consistent for that 2nd monke temple jump. Hope this helps! Another thing to note for the ice slide, I like to punch into the wall before doing it. Helps keep my slides consistent
I love that the small community for this game is still alive and thriving! Truly an underplayed masterpiece. I’ve thought about trying to run it so thanks so much for all the helpful info
as bad as people say this game is which i dont understand this game was my childhood love this game i remeber the monkey temple would take me so long and my 5 year old brain would want to bash my skull in with the wii remote
Just figured out how to use an emulator and excited to get started. Playing through the main game for nostalgia but getting some practice on the tech. Thx so much for the guide and excited to join the discord and starts some runs!

thx for dont let this game die
Every time I hear Steve Blum as any character, Tank Dempsey, Sub-Zero I always am reminded of Pitfall Harry.
It's crazy to think this game is 20 years old. But there is still an active community of people who love this game on our Discord server!
@@JaymanW i will join in ur discord server, i love this game
jaymans fated return
