Refund Reason: the puzzles are suppose to break me, not the other way around FOR THOSE WHO ARE ANNOYED BY ME REFUNDING THE GAME: I just want to clear something up for those who are upset about me refunding the game and feel like it’s taking money away from the developer. I get where you guys are coming from, but I already own a copy of this game, and I absolutely love it and it's extremely talented developers! Also, this video is actually going to make the game WAY more money than what I refunded it for. Even if just a couple of people decide to buy the game after watching this video, that can only be a win for the developers, this video is literally just free advertisement. Oh and it doesn't actually take money out of developer's pockets AT ALL after further research. Valve simply gives the money back to the person who refunded the game as if the purchase was never even made in the first place. Valve holds all of the money made by the game until the developers get their monthly payment, so no the developers do not have to pay the consumers anything.

Oh and one last thing, for anyone worried that this will encourage people to abuse Steam’s refund system in general, I don’t think that’s going to happen. - Watching a violent movie isn't going to make someone act violently in real life. - Watching a cooking show isn’t going to make you a professional chef overnight. - Watching a random guy on the internet do a refund speedrun isn't going to make people abuse the steam refund policy. I'm just trying to say that the people who abuse the refund system were already doing it, my actions really aren't going to change that by much. So, yeah, hope you guys understand, just tryna keep things positive 😅
The game stray actually has an achievement like that where you have to rest for 2 real time hours, so you can’t really get all achievements quick there
7:40 That achievement is there cus it's a game about physics. Who discovered gravity? Isaac Newton.. how? An apple fell on his head. Just a sweet lil nod. Edit: with someone telling me in the comments , the achievement is a nod to a painting where a man's head is obscured by an apple. I'd say it fits the game even better.
@@Commander-Spiff Speedruning engagement is what makes your game live for decades, with this "message" you both loose money and kill your game long term, no matter how you see it that lil funny achievement is extremely detrimental to your game long term
Yaaaaaay i love superliminal, the feelings of abndonment and breaking all the previous rules game teach you in the end gives the perfect horror experience. Didnt expect you to play it too. Glad youre doing stuff you want
I did NOT expect this quality from Gronf of all the small youtubers i know. In a good way. If this branching out is not hard for you, continue if you wish, I love seeing something LIKE THIS GOD DAMN.
nice work! i don't really know why anyone gets mad at "can i get a refund" challenge videos - clearly the person making the video loves the game enough to get through it in under 2 hours, they definitely already own it lmao
If I was a programmer, might be funny to make a game that’s all about keeping customer relationships high despite the “Absolutely no refunds” policy, and have an achievement called “Obey the policy. Gotta be a good example right?” For playing for more then 2 hours.
The wonkiness of that bouncy castle depends on your framerate. The higher the framerate, the more finicky it is. I had to cap my FPS at 50 just to do the challenge reliably. You have the patience of a saint for having the patience to brute force it, which is ironic for this kind of challenge. Well played.
I'm only 5 minutes into the video as I type this comment, but I'm very impressed by your editing and commentary! You keep a consistent, good paced flow. I am enjoying this so far.
this is sick bro, not imagine a 100% run was possible in just about 1:30 hours and didnt even know the majority of the secrets. awesome video edition btw
Found you cuz of this video- I don’t really have much interest in what this channel was focused on prior, (never even heard of it, but might take a look) to be real I fw this content style, and honestly you could be big with this type of quality bro
I’d never thought I’d see a superliminal video in 2025 but this is lowkey my favorite video game. The only game I’ve 100% completed except for Lego Batman 3
@@SirGronfletonI get your reasoning, though I worry that by actually showing yourself refunding the game it normalizes the act of doing so and sets an example that people will carry over to other games, which can be especially damaging to smaller developers. I fully understand playing it up for the title and I do respect that, but I do think the ending sets a poor example that reminds me of that one developer who quit game development indefinitely because they weren’t profiting off of their game due to being too short and therefore easily refundable.
@PossiblyAxolotl How is this exploiting the refund policy? Steam says you can have a refund if you play a game for less than 2 hours, he played it for less than 2 hours, he got a refund. Its literally just as simple as that, stop trying to hate on his cool content. Or you can go to literally everyone else on the internet that has ever refunded a game that they beat in less than the refund time. I wish you luck with that endeavor.
@@Yinithynhey no hate here, I’m just expressing my concern. I absolutely respect playing and speedrunning a game, the part that has me concerned is simply, as I said, showing off how easy it is to refund after you’ve finished. The point of refunding a game is generally if it doesn’t play how you expected, or is broken, or in some way provides a lesser experience than you may have hoped, but playing an entire game and then refunding is like watching a movie and then wanting to refund your ticket because it was less than 2 hours
Dunno why people seem to have a problem with the premise. The only people that would be even capable of completing the challenge would be people that already bought a copy to practice on. I'm honestly not even convinced on the argument of "it costs the devs money" because the claim is being parroted with no sources, there hasn't been a single person who has said something like "Jimmy Devguy, developer of Steve Gunshooter Shoots Enemies said that this is true on their social media".

When the puzzles arent puzzling
Me tearing up the puzzle after 124 hours of building it:
no puzzles can break the gronf
Don't be discouraged if this video gets fewer views than Ultrakill's videos, it's a sudden change in content, but it doesn't mean it's bad content.
you should play Robo quest
I can already see the devs add a new achievement called: Do nothing for 30 minutes. just to make refund-speedrunning harder
he still would have 52 left
That’s something the Stanley parable would do
@@Discoseekeagerly waiting until 2032 to finally get that achievement lol
About that
The game stray actually has an achievement like that where you have to rest for 2 real time hours, so you can’t really get all achievements quick there
7:40 "son of man" is the name of a painting by Magritte with the apple in front of the face of a man.
id assume its an issac newton refference
CHILD OF MAN???
@MinorGooberism a visitor?
@@mikhaelsamatov hmm. Indeed. I have slept long enough
When you said a vid was big I was NOT expecting this lol
For real😅

actually it didnt fell on his head
@@GeneralSteinberg also he didn't discover gravity, people had been aware things fall down for a while
@@Imthefake no shit
@@Imthefake yeah he didnt discover it. he invented it
@@BeagleBytes "inventing" is discovering.
If I ever make a game, I’m adding an achievement for playing for 2 hours just to screw with refund% speedrunners
that’s genius
anyway I’m using that too
Thats just evil...
well then it'll make 100% speedrun extremely annoying lowering the engagement for your game and costing you money instead of saving you money

its about sending a message

I do quite like the editing of this video. It’s stimulating enough to be entertaining, but not overbearing or obnoxious. It’s very good. :)
I died every time he said "Dice" as the singular noun of "Die", and every time he said "Dices" was worth double
3:43 massive? you know what else is massive?
LOWW TAPER FADEEE
20:11
There’s no way sans not only made it to smash, but also to superliminal
Great video, literally when you said a big video i didnt expect this level of quality, definetely kept it up
as someone who’s never played superliminal, i have absolutely no idea what of this is is glitches and what is intended
cool to see you branch out with your videos, and even cooler to see its going well, pivoting channels can be hard. keep it up!!!
The wonkiness of that bouncy castle depends on your framerate. The higher the framerate, the more finicky it is. I had to cap my FPS at 50 just to do the challenge reliably. You have the patience of a saint for having the patience to brute force it, which is ironic for this kind of challenge. Well played.
7:51 I absolutely love the inclusion of the Realm Overworld theme from Spirit Tracks in this section! It’s one of my favorite Zelda themes.
That's not me at 10:52, that's my identical twin V3
V1 FROM THE HIT GAME ULTRAKILL?!?!??!??!11'1'?!?!?!!
had no idea creature of steel would be here in this comment section
This video is insanely well edited coming from someone with, in my opinion, such a low sub-count. You deserve a lot more, keep up the great work!
"All you've got to do Is. Wake. Up." In Dr. Pierce's voice lives rent free on my head

Love that youre branching out to more games!
This "100% and get a refund" type videos could become a great series outside of only ultrakill stuff
When you have background music from Celeste, Portal and Sonic Mania, you know it's going to be a good video.
Great Video. Not an Ultrakill Fan, but I hope to see you on my Recommended Page again with another banger like this. Also, greetings from germany
this is sick bro, not imagine a 100% run was possible in just about 1:30 hours and didnt even know the majority of the secrets. awesome video edition btw
The apple achievement is likely a eater egg about the apple falling on Isaac newton’s head (mind you this is just pure speculation) love the vid ❤
Grt the refund to donate to the devs for giving you an awesome two hours of fun.
0:01 IS THAT V1 (the ultrakill brainrot is real)
it also did have the ultrakill sound effect
what v1
ultralobotomy is real
@PhoenixSS you clearly do not have ultrakill brainrot yet
good for you
YES THAT'S FUCKING
V1 FROM ULTRAKILL
Found you cuz of this video- I don’t really have much interest in what this channel was focused on prior, (never even heard of it, but might take a look) to be real I fw this content style, and honestly you could be big with this type of quality bro
I love videos like this actual peak content
Its been so long since ive played and speedran this game and holy shit these wall clips look so fun!!
the dice counter exploding joke was really well paced
bro i thought u had like at least 1 mil subs while watching this, such a good vid!
"...starts to turn into a horror game all of a sudden"
*portal music starts playing*
nah but that song's pretty creepy and chill at the same time
happy to see your not playing ultrakill lol good job
03:42
21:35
YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE IS MASSIVE??
I loved the portal reference at around 1:15 lol
This video is amazing, and now I want to buy the game, the devs should pay you for advertising lol! Ngl I subscribed just because of this video.
Ok so I will watch this video and come up with a joke but until then pretend this comment is really funny
Loll
Lmfao…
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!
LMFAO
PFFT
I just bought super liminal because of you I hope you’re happy
Loving this Chanel 😂
i can't imagine knowing a game well enough to 100% it in under 2 hours
It’s such a fun game I really love puzzle games especially this and the portal series
Thats such a good video! And for that, u got :Like: :)
11:05 BRO THAT ACTUALLY JUMPSCARED ME SO BAD
pawn jumpscare
celeste music being goated as always :D
If I ever get my games on Steam I'm going to add a "Play the game for 3 hours" achievement lmao
Good vid 🤙
damn this type of content is awesome :D
Just started the video, this is gonna be fire
Not with THAT amount of fire extinguishers
@Not_meant_for_public But you wouldn't extinguish it, would you?
@@donniedip youre a firekisser aren't you?
I had to fucking double check.
@@iamlosingmysanityrapidly same
the editing is fire
mmm yes i love me a superliminal jumpscare whenever i watch your ultrakill playlist
this wasnt what i expected but good video im gonna go play superliminal now
bro this is fire!!!! i haven't had this much fun watching a video for so long
You should play nine sols fr!!!
Love the new content
love the new video i would like more of this 100% type
Did NOT expect a 100% refund AND superliminal in one video. Crossing that off the bingo board.
Glad to see that my excitement from yesterday's video was well founded, great video
I appreciate the LoZ Spirit Tracks music 8:07
2:27 i actually thought he'll put ultrakill level start there
You could say discover the parking lot to be fake was a shattered illusion
I’d never thought I’d see a superliminal video in 2025 but this is lowkey my favorite video game. The only game I’ve 100% completed except for Lego Batman 3
While I like the game and can appreciate the speedrun, as a game developer this feels really gross and exploitative of Steam’s refund policy

New challenge: can you go get milk and cigarettes and make it home in time to get a refund?
13:50 Hey, thats celeste music!
I love the I do not care line in super liminal it is the best line this is actually something that I think GLaDOS would say
I think you're cool for using the VVVVVV soundtrack
Thanx for video. I dont have that much money so i would definetly try and do this refund speedrun
This needs to be more popular
referencing portal at the start and then playing the ost is so crazy
gronf using celeste ost in a superliminal video just makes it better than it already is
He left the movement tech game, but the movement tech didn't leave him.
{get a refund} series would be fire
oh wow didnt expect to see one of my fav games of all time here
peak game, changed my life getting 100%
Dude I fucking love this game this just gave me a WAVE of nostalgia
3:58 im tonight, im going to steal, the MOON! ahh moment
the spirit tracks in the background is W
Ggs new game and i like the video
7:42 The achievement is a reference to a painting called son of man in which a person is depicted with an apple as their face
John Ultrakill mentioned!! 10:53
Love the Beach Buggy racing music from 4:45
Damn.
This video is actually so good
Did not expect this, but im not complaining superliminal is peak
the son of man achievement is really funny
The apply on the head is an omage to the "discovery" of gravity.
This game is so smart. Feels like every glitch is intentional.
i love how this basically is just all achievements speedrun except you refund the game at t he end
i think this video gonna hit 1 million view soon

You starting Chapter 5 with the same song and the same starting point of the song that I use for my phone's ringtone had me really confused
Just finished the video, it was fire
I didn't even know there was a constellation room
This video is so good
0:01 ultrakill ranking noise
edit: i thought this was a different channel, I know realize why there are so many ultrakill sfx
noice. Subbed
3:34 missed fire alarm
