New World Record in Fast Rolling Any% – 4:52.94

Hey, guys!

 

Happy new year! It’s been forever since I’ve posted here. I apologize for that.

Recently, I’ve been speedrunning a game called Fast Rolling live on my Twitch and YouTube channels, going after the coveted world record. Well, today, it finally happened. Not only did I beat the previous world record by a country mile, I skipped sub-6 minutes and went directly to sub-5 minutes. Since I now have the world record, I no longer plan on running the game unless a major discovery about the game is revealed. Although this run was pretty good, there’s still over half a minute of time to be saved throughout the run. On top of this world record, I obtained my 9th individual level WR in the game, making me quite literally the best Fast Rolling player in the world. You can watch the Any% WR below or by clicking here:

As of writing, the run has not been approved by the moderators. I hope it happens within the next day or so. In the future, I plan on running a mix of Super Mario 64, SaGa Frontier, and Star Ocean: The Second Story. If you want to watch me attempt to PB in each game, follow my Twitter or join my Discord to be notified exactly when I go live.

 

Here’s to the next decade.

New Super Mario 64 16 Star PB: 31:17.31

Hello, everyone!

Last night during my live stream (which you should totally watch on Tuesday’s and Friday’s), I was able to beat my personal best in SM64 16 star not once, but twice! (To be fair, my first PB wasn’t that hard to beat in the first place) The first PB of the night was a 48:09.04, which beat my previous PB by almost an hour!

Just a few runs later, I was able to PB again, this time by almost 16 minutes, bringing my PB as of today to 31:17.31:

Personally, I think this run can be greatly improved upon within a couple weeks to a mid-to-low 20-minute time, so long as I can consistently get all the basic tricks first try and complete the stages faster than I completed them in that run. Before I can break the 20-minute barrier, however, I will need to learn how to complete each star in the fastest way possible.

 

Enjoy!

New Video: 108-in-1 eBay Cartridge

Hello, everyone!

 

I have finally gotten around to creating a new video for you guys! I decided to explore a 108-in-1 Game Boy cartridge I bought from eBay with a couple of my friends. The results were… Interesting, to say the least.
