This gets me really excited. All that hard work and he barely made it to the top 25%s? Will we be seeing the egg push even further beyond? How far will we get? This is just the beginning of his journey and we are in the front seat to watching him improve
Kirby had some insane tech for its time -You can buffer a dash input when falling or bouncing. That is, right before landing or after landing from a certain height causing a bounce, you can hit the double direction input to ensure Kirby starts dashing asap after getting on his feet. -If you single jump out of a dash without puffing and keep holding the direction, you instantly go back into dashing -after falling (no puff) from a certain height, Kirby gets a hitbox and will kill an enemy by bouncing off of it (or just the ground), if you had transitioned from a dash into the jump that preceded fall, as before, continuing to hold the direction instantly resumes dash, keeping your forward momentum throughout. -if you didn't dash into the drop attack/ground bounce, just to restate, you can hit the double -direction input during the bouncing animation and Kirby will start dashing as soon as he's on his feet. Those last two together is likely one of the keys to posting S times -you can inhale during a jump/ dash jump, it will cancel your initial dash (and negate your ability to buffer the dash input before landing, if I remember right), but you can hit another dash input to dash while having something inhaled after you've landed and regained control. This is likely another key to S times since it's two main ways to manage enemies in your way, not to mention strategic spitting which also cancels your dash -puffing is the slowest form of moving (of course) but can be the right move under some circumstances besides the obvious. Like air control, getting high enough for a bounce attack, having a puff of air to eliminate an enemy, but generally you want to be dashing, single-jumping and falling as much as possible, but getting a feel and experiencing might reveal a trick
And the best part is that most of those things are probably there as QoL features to make the game as smooth as possible and lower friction, since Kirby was designed to be a lenient game that’s welcoming towards newbie players. That it can be used for speedrunning tech is cool, but making dev decisions to achieve your design goals and making a better experience for your target audience is even cooler.
Im predicting theres going to be some absolute nightmare blunt rotation battle royales possible in this game Could you imagine getting Full level of Kirby Full level of kid icarus And entire game of mario 🤣 Absolute endurance round Or like whiplash where you have Power grab the morph ball Grab the poison mushroom Entire game of mario
When I saw the tumbnail, I was like 'Oh, is it clear 8-4?' and the game is like 'Beat World 8 and you start at 1-1' and I'm like o.o. This is a significant step above the Underworld of last week or beat World 1 of Mario Bros 3.
I come with intel ryan, in excite bike you can let go of your b button in the air and preserve speed making your temp gauge slowly tick down, AS WELL AS, you need to land on your front tire to do a lil bounce that preserves speed. not my knowledge speed runner knowledge
And put it in 1.5 speed just for a couple minutes and I forgot it was a 1.5 speed I don’t know what that says about this he said he talks fast, but I don’t know
On excite bike he needs to be constantly edging the temp bar, and be accelerating as much as he possibly can, I don't understand why he doesn't. If it's 80% full then you're wasting time not accelerating Not that I care don't flame me :(
I think "Warp Zone Ahead" being immediately translated to "They said invisible block!" was where I officially lost all my brain cells. One too many Trump impressions rubbing off XD

Seeing the results to the last set of challenges was like having a bunch of Rocky montages and then having Rocky come in 3rd
This gets me really excited. All that hard work and he barely made it to the top 25%s? Will we be seeing the egg push even further beyond? How far will we get? This is just the beginning of his journey and we are in the front seat to watching him improve
That IS the plot of Rocky.

Wake up honey, time to see what new 7 seconds of gameplay we'll be watching for an hour!
*several hours, until sufficiently optimized🫡
At least we get to see him continually make the exact same mistakes hundreds of times.
at least they added the entirety of super mario bros
nobody knows how excitebike works it's a mystery to man.
NL stating those percentages before they are revealed like it’s nothing lol
There's a delay
@@thisismywill It wasn't a delay, it was him doing quick math
@@Okiesmokie nah he was using a calc. everyone knows you need a calc for that man
@@bagelmaster8 for those just tuning in calc is short for calculator chat
Y'all acting like this man hasn't been predicting percentages in Jackbox games for years
17:24 me when I drop a piece of chocolate and my dog gets to it before I do
26:50 NL notices the difficulty
Northenlion destroyed Arguementus in this debate.
You misspelled Northernlion so Arguementus automatically wins
@@welcometraveller Appeal to Arguementus fallacy.
We’re champion guys of course we end the attempt with a “fuck you”
do want to see northernlion play an entire Kirby game start to finish
31:17 I AM THE PINK DROPLET🗣🗣🗣
At 49 mins when he said "don't restart" and then he restarted, I thought that was pretty funny
Im predicting theres going to be some absolute nightmare blunt rotation battle royales possible in this game
Could you imagine getting
Full level of Kirby
Full level of kid icarus
And entire game of mario 🤣
Absolute endurance round
Or like whiplash where you have
Power grab the morph ball
Grab the poison mushroom
Entire game of mario
Nah, true whiplash is
Full level of kid icarus
Entire game of mario
Stomp the koopa
The fuck you followed by the hard jump to black screen is something else

maybe tomorrow the mario master will emerge. for this i hope. for this i pray.
Today is monday, which means Gandalf gets to lick a graham cracker. It is his favorite activity.
It also means NWC:NES E update, I suppose.
i love northernlion expects to win big and loses content (not in a mean way it's fun to be excited together then comically be let down)
also being born in '88 hearing NL talk about mid 2000's pitchfork is everything I think i've ever needed
Landing on your front wheel gives you a super bounce. Chat doesn't know what they're talking about.
NL creating a chatter to launch into a horrible bit with a horrible impression is hilarious.
I literally bought this game today because of this bald mofo, he is the ad guy. And I love every minute of it Jerry.

Monday baby. Nintendo World Championships baby.
Man i really came around to liking this ngl
NL has been looking particularly egg like recently. Peak egg era? 🥚 🐣
I'd hate to see what Egg does in a game drought cuz WE ARE EATING RN
YESSSSS RESPECT ON STREET SKATING
Other streamers: stop back seating while i’m playing the game 😡
NL: I’m 30 years old man tell me exactly what to do
absolutely pogging for the kirby lag
No one:
Not a single soul:
*Jelqing Northernlion:* 45:53
27:23 The impromptu impression of Donald Trump decrying Pitchfork Media poptimism. This guy’s got me in the palm of his hand
going to buy this game and say i was born in 1988 just to get better times than NL and piss him off.
It's update day

I was gonna say he should stream lost levels but I looked it up and he did 11 years ago
No one gonna talk about underwater hockey?
So to clear Ascension 20, I'd suggest not playing in the OBS window, it's value tails by the time you get to the beyond 👍
That "I Don't give permission" Mark Zuckerberg Joke sent me. Still every other year see people posting that crap on facebook. 🤣
Something something game drought
22:38 me when I see Kirby porn
25% of 2000 is 500. He is top 500
Nes world championship tournament of shame when?
oh you want the secrets to an easy win now, huh? hard work and practice.
And put it in 1.5 speed just for a couple minutes and I forgot it was a 1.5 speed I don’t know what that says about this he said he talks fast, but I don’t know
That Trump bit is totally my jam
On excite bike he needs to be constantly edging the temp bar, and be accelerating as much as he possibly can, I don't understand why he doesn't. If it's 80% full then you're wasting time not accelerating
Not that I care don't flame me :(

The end :3
Let's go!

We are nwc guys, of course we say “fuck you” and bring up our age.
me scrubbing through the last 20min and not seeing anything in the pb replay screen:
this is the moment we've all been waiting for
Ew, is Kirby just a lung?
