[@TheCunningLinguist]

OMG I csnt believe I missed this live! 🤯 Congrats man, well deserved!!

[@GhERmann]

I did this run offline at 1am. You didn't miss anything, I wasn't streaming.

[@gaspode8]

Impressive. You are using some really clever tricks here.

[@Omegaweapon737]

For the puzzles at 12:18 you can go across the gap if you land on the edge for the acceleration and jump immediately. That way you don't need to waste any time climbing.

[@kiteracer95]

8:31 what happens here? I haven't seen this skip before...

[@GhERmann]

Apologies for the late reply. We call that trick a "Springload". We aren't 100% sure about the technical reason, but when you get a double bounce on a Monstar in world 4 and you freeze on the first frame you got the bounce, you will keep gaining horizontal speed for each frame you hold it.

[@EdMottoOficial]

@@GhERmann it happens because the bounce on the monstar exponentially builds up on every bounce. that's like that for the parts where you need to get higher so you bounce on 2 of them. the hitbox dont refresh tho so being frozen makes the flag of the double bounce be hit multiple times

[@EdMottoOficial]

@@GhERmann funny how the bounce sounds stack one on top of another.

[@SandwichTV]

Teh urn! Congrats!

[@EdMottoOficial]

i never thought of speedrunning this game but seeing you running off with your key to the flag of world 4 ... no words

[@dhritishmansarmah2496]

this was crazy awesome

[@captainnoyaux]

What a monster great job

[@andrewsauer2729]

Wow I didn't know you could blow up the princess without getting the stars...

[@mander28]

Have any advice on cascade. I know its been years since you have posted and i dont even know if your active anymore. I can do everything until getting out of the hallway pretty consistently but stuggle finding visual cues for fireball jump

[@EdMottoOficial]

so much swag

[@zawarka7072]

[@Wizen_Wizard]

i like it how the puzzle piece gets bugged at 19:33

[@Craxin01]

Good grief! How the HELL did you touch the princess without getting any stars? My personal best is like 12 minutes slower!

[@SkankingKyle]

hi ghermann im a big friend

[@ppensen]

@5:01 how did you just use the ladder to get this piece?

[@GhERmann]

When you just got on a ladder, after being grounded, you can jump for... 8? or maybe 10?... frames after getting on it. Basically you stand on the platform where I stopped for a little bit and then jump to the right, shortly after grabbing onto, and climbing the ladder.

[@ppensen]

@@GhERmann thanks for replying. I did finally manage to work it out myself but yours is so clean! Amazing speedrun bro!
