I’m willing to bet this challenge is possible by one human actually using four controllers at once. I mean, I think it’d be incredibly difficult but I do believe it’s possible
It definitely is. While chaining is already difficult for one character, the real difficulty comes from swapping to another character to start a new chain. The brain power to remember which controller belongs to which character while reacting to when you'd actually need to switch, all while holding run and to the right would be absolutely insane.
4:25 - "...Increasing the maximum number of players I could control at a single time from two, all the way up to the console's maximum of four." The Switch standard controller management page undersells it. The system can actually handle 8 simultaneous controllers, which is how you get 6 players in TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, or 8 in Bomberman R.
Kinda poetic how the double cherry was conceived from a programming mistake when they were making SM3DW and how your whole "2 players, 1 controller" idea was ALSO conceived by a programming mistake. Anyways, awesome job with the vid man. Keep up the amazing content!!
Now, the GRANDEST canyonest!!!!! After the pipe to the sub area, a pipe leading to the main area in the top half of the level, then after that, another pipe to another sub area to another canyon!!!!!! 4 canyons to traverse, 4 times the fun!!!
Summary: He was sent some devices that allowed one controller to control an extra character, he got Panga to help him, and they used the bubble respawn mechanic to cross the massive gap by bouncing off the bubbles.
No hate or anything but, yeah I get what he mean, not everyone have the time nor the will to watch a full video just to get to one specific point of it. Maybe he should put the jump first, then the explanation for peoples who are curious...
The intro, the editing, the music, even the video itself, it’s all SO GOOD. This is easily one of, if not my favorite video you’ve ever uploaded! Shoutout to the amazing new editors for an epic video, and rays for his top tier content as always.
Let me tell you: I can immediately tell when a creator decides to spend ages really stretching the limit of what their content is capable of. This is absolutely one such video. I can’t even begin to praise nearly everything that makes this phenomenal. The effects, the editing, the idea in general… it’s all done so well. I’m really looking forward to what you’ll do next with the SWICC. Absolute masterpiece.
This feels like the highest editing quality I've seen on this channel... I didn't even remember this happened on twitch, and here it is turned into a masterpiece on RUclips! Awesome work! 🎉
Making this into a full story really gave beating the challenge weight. I enjoyed learning about the Swicc and the build up to the challenge. The editing is also very engaging, wonderful work. Keep it up.
"How I Solved Mario Maker's Impossible 500 Block Jump That I Also Created Because I Already Knew How To Solve It From Some Cheese I Did Earlier" 13 minutes of backstory filler BS of them finding the cheese strat and then making a specific challenge for that cheese strat, followed by 1.5 minutes of them doing the challenge, and then a 30 second outro. Complete with the required 'Would we be able to do it, or would we run out of time?' rhetorical question before showing them do it.
It was IMPOSSIBLE TO DO! (In my very specific controlling two people at once to make it easier way) (Also it was always possible with four players) (Also also I didn't even discover this) This felt like watching a clickbait thumbnail
@@BlaketheBlockit’s supposed to have a story to it. That’s just the style of the content. I understand people wanting short videos but a lot of people enjoy the storytelling of longer videos like this. Plus, he needs to make money in some way. If he uploaded a short few minute video it wouldn’t make much money at all and he kinda needs money to be able to live
I have not heard of you. I mistakenly clicked (commonly done), and decided to entertain myself. Oh. How entertained I was. Your voice can make any tale into a riveting quest. I may watch some of your other content at times. Thank you.
i was gonna leave this exact same comment lmao, no hate but bro literally just recapped the most boring story ever before getting to the actual point of the video.
Now just need to clear it in single player so you can upload the level. :) Kidding aside, that does seem like a fun challenge. Glad you roped Panga into it.
I feel like the video actually did a really good job of explaining the story and how they started doing the challenge and everything, really good video tbh
@DarkStarCoreX I don't even use TikTok. Actually, most of the videos I tend to like are pretty long. That's because they're good content. This is not good content. The problem was introduced. The parts of the solution were explained. Then we had to watch gameplay in irrelevant contexts for most of the video. Until fiiiiinally in the last 2 minutes of this absolute pile of viewtime farming trash, we got to see what we came here for.
@@DarkStarCoreX Dude, the first seven minutes has like absolutely nothing to do with what's mentioned both in the title and the thumbnail. If you cut out a huge chunk of the content earlier in the video you could title it: "I brag about a bunch of things I did and how successful they were." Literally nothing to do with the level that was supposed to be the topic, or the technique needed to complete it. This is like a textbook example of clickbait.
@@rocvmxcha Okay tell me this: if the video was structured in a way that was basically "I got this cool device from a modder yo and i used it to beat big with help from friend okay bye" would any (normal) person watch it? I guarantee you they would say they would not.
@@BlaketheBlockprobably because the criticism doesn’t make any sense. You can see the video length when you click on it. If people don’t like this sort of video then they should just not watch instead of complain
Omg I used to watch your super mario sunshine streams for a long time, suddenly your video pops up in my feed and then the rays logo popped up and I was like wait I know this guy. Suddenly I recognized your voice. It changed a bit. Great to see your success, to many more years of growth. All the best to you ❤
12:23 Holy sh. I was so into this video. Man it feels like 10 years ago, someone I really looked up to LOVED a video game, so I ate it up, I got the paid version, I bought the soundtrack, I burned it to a CD, I ripped it to my car's hard drive, and I would listen to the soundtrack of Tower of Heaven for years anytime I was driving (not exclusively; I'm not a maniac). So when that track hit at 12:23, it was like the climax in a Clive Cussler movie. Love your work keep going!
TLDR he used hardware that allowed him to control multiple controllers at the same time and beat the level by playing in coop mode and jumping off the bubbles of respawning players over and over. This is the timestamp of it happening: 13:35

You only say this to make him suffer

So this is what they based the Bubble Flower in Mario Wonder off
Lmao
you can use that sucker to cheese entire levels too, so maybe!

The fact that people try harder to cheese levels in a hard way than to beat them the easy way is so hilarious and so relatable.

Really loved the video! The storytelling was great and I loved the post-production.
The visuals on this one are insane
The 1984 Grindel had me cracking up
The only reason it wasn't possible for a while was because no mm2 player has 3 friends who also play mm2
