Imagine an alternate universe, where the SMB1 speedrunning community timed runs via TAS timing...

-runs slower than 4:56.711 would no longer be sub 5 in any%
-the human limit would be 4:57.543 (4:57.310 w/ L+R)
-sub 5 would require hard tricks like FPG/1 Frame wall-jump/BBG all in one run

😱 scary

happy 20th anniversary to okami, one of my favourite games of all time!!! 🐺🌸
#okami #大神 #大神20周年

Ok apparently it was actually retimed to 11:18.983 so now I look extra silly 💀

Extremely funny timing after what happened here

Good run but can I PLEASE get a 0 hands PB next time 😭

Also retime is 11:19.000 which is comedy

Yoshi's Island SNES 100% Complete!!! Never have I completed a game that was so fun to play but so terrible of an experience to 100% looool (but I did it!) Been meaning to beat this classic I somehow never played growing up :3

I've been feeling a disconnect within the people I know in SMB1 from all the bs that's happened lately. It's caused me to realize I want to make or help establish some other type of general multi-purpose server to help bridge that gap (that isn't just a "Spiker's server" thing) but not sure what 🤔

Happy international asexuality day!!! 🖤💜🤍

In terms of speedrunning as of late, for some reason, I got myself into speedrunning NES Donkey Kong (OG and Jr.) and now have good times in both! 1:05.8 in OG DK & 1:28.1 in DK Jr. :0 Cool to try something really short but interesting for a run :D

Today was the kind of day that makes you stare at a wall, wishing things could've been different. But I don't want to run away. Because I know that there's still a path forward, even if it's hard to see. All I desire now is for peace to work out in some way. Life is too short to be spent worrying 😓

Thank you for what you do, Lain. <3

AVGN AND SCOTT THE WOZ DID A VIDEO TOGETHER? This is an autism video gaming Youtube match made in heaven wtf

I beat PMD Red Rescue Team!! What a charming, beautiful little game ;_;

Well, I might've put off learning this category for years, but I am proud to have finally put in enough effort to learn the run & complete a decent enough time. 1 Hand, lot more I can put into this still, but I'm happy to finally have something :D

I need more friends I can just DM memes to on discord, while they also send memes to me from time to time. Where are they, let me send you memes :3

Cleared a Pokedle on the 1st try, literal 1/151 chance

I played in an NES Mar10 Marathon Race today with other NES speedrunners, and it was very fun! I was on pace to get a top 3 time in the event, but disaster struck on the last game Dr. Mario and I had to redo the entire board (see below) losing me several minutes :(

Still finished and had a blast :D

never understood why they don't have an option for you to just hide those boxes for muted/blocked users. actually so annoying seeing it appear sometimes in large servers I share with someone I don't want to interact with

To the people that know me but rarely talk to, uh......... hiiiiii

This took a REALLY long time for me to do, but I finally beat Shinobi on PS2! I started playing Shinobi almost 2 years ago due to how captivating the gameplay was to me, despite its harsh difficulty. I made a push towards beating it in Dec 25, but couldn't beat the final boss. But now, I did it!! :3

I got 19:10.3 in SMB1 Warpless! Glad to finally get a real PB with Big Fire Mario after quite some time. Sadly choked the 19:0x to a bad water room, but definitely cannot complain. MORE TO COME :3

Image of a finished PB speedrun of SMB2J any% in 7:57.946

Last night, I PB'd in SMB2J any% with a 7:57.946! Despite playing 8-4 very poorly, I somehow barely managed to snag the second barrier. For a run that could've been close to 7:56, still can't be mad since I've been stuck at a 7:58 for about 2 years 💀

Not done yet, but we take those 🔥

MAJOR CONGRATS to my good friend @sullyrox.bsky.social who got 4:55.863 in SMB1 any% today! I'm SO proud of you dude 🥹

Just achieved 19:14.7 SMB1 Warpless with Big Fire route! This is the 2nd best Warpless run I've ever done, despite a lot of really dumb mistakes. Expect a real PB very soon :3

I PB'd after 2 years in SMB2J any%, but at what cost

absolute src gem

Art of Yoshi being cute heals my soul :3

I fucking did it, 19:49.458 in Vs. Super Mario Bros. Warpless after such a hard grind YES DUDE. Multiple different strategies and a ton of practice FINALLY paid off. Sub 20, 2nd place, AND IT'S A 4X. Unreal, I'm so proud of myself for finally pulling through 🥹
