(ik ik two posts in one day) I tied a world record in Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!!

I tied the Glass Joe world record in Punch-Out. This is one of the easiest world records to tie. I decided to go for it because I felt like it was finally time to enter the realm of serious speedrunning, and Glass Joe is that rite of passage. You can watch this meme of a run here:

That’s all.

I made the first speedrun of Motocross Mania!

Hello, all!

I made the very first speedrun of a game called Motocross Mania. It’s a motorcycle racing game released in 2001 for the PS1. There is a PC version, but it’s wildly different from the PS1 version, which is why I make a distinction between the two. As of writing, there is no leaderboard on SRC, but I have submitted a request for one.

I ran a Championship on the Motorcross mode on the Quick difficulty. The goal of this speedrun was to win the entire championship as fast as possible. You can watch the entire run here:

I hope you enjoyed! I can’t wait to keep running this and establish it as a cool speed game!

2nd SaGa Frontier PB in a Row – 23:14

I got a back-to-back PB! I did not expect this to happen at all. I can still save a bunch of time in Magic Kingdom and Hell to getting fewer encounters. Watch the run here:

That’s all I wanted to say. I’m speechless.

New Blue’s Story PB – 23:56 (5TH PLACE)

This came out of nowhere. I was just doing offline attempts to practice for stream tomorrow, and it happened, somehow. Watch the run below:

This run was better than my 24, but can still be majorly improved. I had better menuing and movement overall, but I was sloppy in TimeLord’s Region, I got an encounter in Magic Kingdom, and I heavily choked stepping stone room, which cost me a mid 22. I will still do attempts for this category until I get a high 21 since I know for a fact I’m capable of that now. I’m very happy with this run, but I am by no means satisfied. This run puts me in 3rd on SRC, 4th in Japan, and 5th overall.

Anyway, that’s enough of me complaining. Enjoy the run!

New Fishy World Record

A bit of context: the developer of Fishy, Keron Veal, released an update for the first Fishy today. In this update, he added a mode that brings in 10 levels from Fishy2. I decided it would be a great use of my quarantine time to spend four hours on getting the world record for completing all 10 of these levels. Watch the meme run here:
