    **FAQ**
    -What is that humming sound?
    That is the sound of my laptop dying. It's dead now, I have a new one. I would like to thank my PC for years of excellent performance. Please imagine this run being played on a very loud CRT.
    -What are the rules?
    Played on Vampire Killer mode (the default class). No glitches allowed. No skips allowed. Pause buffering to avoid attacks is banned. Cleared in a single segment.
    -What counts as a "hit"?
    I cannot take damage or run into an enemy. I was actually allowing Neptune card combinations (while active, Nathan can absorb damage of a certain element), but in this run they happened to be unnecessary. I farmed Cockatrice to absorb the Dracula 2 meteor attack, but instead I got lasers. Lucky!
    -Why isn't your HP at max?
    Level-ups do not restore HP in Circle of the Moon.
    -Why play on JPN?
    The Japanese version of Circle is easier. Nathan gains levels more quickly than in the international release.

    -Is this the hardest Metroidvania No-Hit run to complete in the series?
    Great question! Yes!! By a mile!!!
    -Streamer you actually got hit at [timecode]??
    Please let me know if I took damage somewhere! I rewatched this a couple times to make sure, but it's easy to overlook damage taken while Nathan is grounded.

      @@DireBowser I knew the reason, and it actually has nothing to do with text speed, see what FAQ says - I was just suggesting to add to it

    A country mile is "longer" because the roads aren't straight. It's basically the companion idea to "as the crow flies". The crow flies straight to something a mile away, and you walk a country mile following the road, which meanders as the landscape dictates.

    Great job! Very clean run, even with some close calls. I was very impressed with the Zombie Dragons fight, using the poison whip as an umbrella for the falling rocks was a very clever solution.
    I was also reminded how much I like Circle's final Dracula fight theme- It's a good melody.

    • @JupiterClimb
      @JupiterClimb  Год назад +14

      For posterity's sake, I want to mention the Mercury + Manticore strat for Dragon Zombies was found by Alundra. It was a community effort to discover some way to block the ceiling attack consistently, since all the obvious options (shields, spin whip) proved unreliable.

      Yes, as much as one could complain about the final boss, its theme is the one thing that can’t be criticised.

    What a seriously impressive achievement. I’ve always loved this Castlevania for the challenge it puts out and you made it look like it was nothing. (I’m still amazed at that twin dragon fight.)
    Phenomenal work, sir. Looking forward to more on this channel!

When you start getting those mini-heartattacks in those clutch whiffs and then JC being like yeet yeet yeet all over the place while you there wondering how he got out of that situation ... yea that's a whole other level of mastery ... great run and hea holds way more weight than a refular speedrun or a rando 💪🏻💪🏻

    Using the Poison Mist DSS, you can actually stand on the middle platform during the camilla boss fight, and not only be completely safe from all attacks, but the mist will also hit her as she passes by. It's slow, but it's one of the only fights in this game that can be cheesed without using summons.

    You don't need to save frames IRL. Take care of yourself, so that you can be at the peak of your game when you DO come back from breaks.
    Also, I got a commission a couple of years back to have my dumb Sonic OC modded into Sonic Adventure 2 and I love it SO much.

    I'm sure it would be better to suggest on stream, but a cool Circle of the Moon run could be "One Attribute Card Only". Like you can use any of the Action Cards, but you could only use like Golem combos for example.

  • @HashBandicoot356

    35:13 I believe you can also get to the truck by whiting out on the SS Anne to prevent it from sailing away, then coming back to it later after acquiring the surf HM. Pretty sure that's how I got to it, at least.
    Anyway, I don't recall much discussion of Pokemon rumors with other kids back in the day, but I remember reading a lot of them online, like the whole Pokegods thing, where you'd do some convoluted/repetitive action to supposedly get some secret, super powerful mon, like I seem to recall at least a couple where you had to so something like talk to the TM girl on the top of the department store 100+ times until she gets annoyed with you and gives you a pikablu. Those were the good ol' days.

  • @movezig5
    @movezig5 Год назад

    The reason you fail Security Hall after 5 minutes is because that's the time Dr. Eggman told Shadow to set the bombs for. At the beginning of the mission, he specifically says "set the timer for 15 minutes." So taking even a second longer than 5 minutes will result in death when the bombs go off.
    Realistically, the player should really have _less_ than 5 minutes, since that time doesn't take into account the time it would take for Rouge to make her escape.
