THIS DUDE IS MAKING LAST CAVE LOOK LIKE A JOKE
JESUS CHRIST THAT FOOTWORK
i just realised this is what my father was playing when i first watched him play a game
"Good job."
"Thanks."
Me:Takes 1 hour for Baldos.
He:Takes 1 hour for the game.
Bro Balos alone took me a good year.
_AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT LITTERALY HELL._
haha baldos
Ballos took me like 6 hours
baldos
Wow, if it weren't for those silly mistakes, he could have done it in less than an hour, this guy is my new hero.
Or even under 55 mins, man, that's definetly something
Bill Erak Dragón Dorado the Egg fish
i left Curly in this room in sewers because i thought its fine. Goddammit ill have to start over again
This fucking game in a nutshell lmao.
Green Heart I did it too
Green Heart I did that too my first time, luckily you can get back there in about 2-3 hours even if you're not a speedrun genius
Green Heart I just did that today if only I knew
Same.
aaaand now I'll have the whole fucking soundtrack stuck in my head. Dude this was amazing I'm almost crying. Cave story is my favourite game.
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. It's just such a cool feeling to see someone do so amazingly well on a game you love so much.
I always thought you can't get the best ending if you have the machinegun. MY LIFE WAS A LIE.
mrmotinjo Mines too bro! so it's actually POSSIBLE to get bestest ending with Machine Gun?
It's possible with the polar star.
mrmotinjo Surprised that the runner didn't get the machine gun upgrade.
The Spur is the best weapon in the game but yeah the best ending isn't weapon specific
You can't get it with Booster 0.8 but it doesn't matter what weapon you have.
The hell stage took me about 50 tries to beat.
Then I saw this guy breezing through it.
50? It took me about 50 just to get to the final boss. Haven't beaten him yet.
He probably practiced for it like more than 50 times
Amazing stuff. It took me hours to get through the Hell stage. And here you go do that in mere minutes. Awesome speedrun.
Dexter Allen Same. I had basically every inch of that level memorized by the time I best it lol
You will not believe how many time I have failed at saving Curly.
How did you fail? Did you not know how to? Because once you know it's really easy.
SS•TecaLuca Fack water currents.
+Metalguy40 k
Teca It's kinda tricky for first timers
On my first play through I didn't know you could save curly because I thought robot-human+ water= dead. Well time to replay the game again.
So close to sub 1 hour :P
Good run.
Ah, today I learned something. In Cave Story+, you can collect all the dogs at the same time. I didn't know in the original, you could only carry one at a time.
Song of Storms is playing very silently on the right side at around 25:00, but already earlier on. Someone listening to music?
wow song of storms actually works really well with on to grasstown
I choose to belive that speedruns in games like Cave Story are canon
You DO play as a robot after all
NO! you´re doing it wrong! is suposed to be hard!
Anyone hear a faint Song of Storms??
+Revivvles Took a moment but totally.
+Revivvles I didn't notice that, but I did hear music from Bionic Commando a few times when Cave Story didn't happen to have any music going. Any idea WTF is going on here???
+Revivvles Yes, and some other songs as well. Keep listening for them, they're in there.
+Revivvles I think its supposed to be the music they play between runs, and they just didn't properly mute it.
I was literally just about to point this out; I've seen this run before but didn't notice until I watched with headphones on.
wonderful!
ONE HOUR?? nice, looks like this could be somehting I could get behind
he passed hell in 5 minutes .-.
Holy fuck that last cave. And the tile room from hell is freaking amazing too, he almost got it without taking damage. You all know how it feels to do it without taking damage. Just imagine a no damage speedrun for this game, that room would make it a run killer.
I played Cave Story recently and found a glitch,i think. If before a cutscene with text,you press the jump button and KEEP it pressed through the cutscene,the text just appears full,with no scroll. I don't know if speedrunners know of this,if it is common knowledge or not. I found it out in the BalFrog fight,and the guy didn't use it so.....did i make a discovery?
Cursedwind If you die to a boss, you can skip through their dialogue.
Kieran Romer Yeah,i figured as such...
First time Cave Story viewer. Wow! I prefer unglitched tests of skill, and one of the few speedruns where bunny hopping doesn't swivel the perspective constantly and piss me off. IMO the XP drain taking dmg is insanely creative, and an excellent counter-measure to damage boosting I-frames. There are few games inspirational enough to want to take the deep dive on learning a speed run, but, this looks worth it. And to boot, this looks fun to play on keyboard, which is not usually possible.
am i really that unlucky?? i ran across a softlock on my second run through the game, in the egg room i got softlocked in where i couldnt access anything on the ground, so i couldnt use the door.
What
keep hearing song of storms.
Just: Great Game
nicely done
25:30 25:44 Zelda's Lullaby
i skipped to ballos wanting to know what strats theyd use and ive never been more confused in my life
very well done
Aww, Patchy
You can hop into ballos eye without the invinceable frames
The faint Ocarina of Time in the background is messing with my brain XD
Curlyyyy
1.06.59
'Just use invincibility frames to get up to his eye, and-'
Is it just me or did I hear Ocarina of Time music throughout the run?
How did this man complete hell in 3 1/2 minutes?
19:46 the big toaster lmao
HOW DOES HE SHOOT THE BLADE AND MISSILE THAT FAST?
Weapon swap glitch if you swap back and forth fast enough you can shoot a fuckload
Talk about fancy footwork
Whats with the text?
Why is the text in no language?
its the original freeware version, supposed to be Japanese, but obviously it isn't, to this day, I am unsure why it is in that jumbled mess instead of Japanese, you can still play in English, you just need the English patch for it.
Oh I was just wondering why he used a garbled mess patch and not the english or japaneese versions
YoshiPilot AFAIK His computer is trying to read the Japanese text as an English/Spanish/French/German style language, so it comes out as garbage text. There's a Wikipedia article on it, just search up Japanese garbled text on google.
Ok
What's with that text?
+Zach Eagan They probably don't have the proper fonts or something.
Haltgamer Yeah, he didn't have the Eastern Asian Language files installed to the computer
I flipped on cavestory cause the heavy press crushed me after defeat
I'm really digging the commentator's filter in the beginning. #botlife
23:50, 24:32, 24:51 Song of Storms lol
Are you kidding?! This is way easier than cave story plus!
had to stop watching because I haven't finished hell yet, oh well
Ad I'm here, trying to get sub 3 minutes on hell.
6:51 if you're not fucking around
Balos/Ballos is THICC
Your grammar is bad.
what about the happy/fourth ending?
+Procatinator You mean the mod?
The fourth ending was a mod for the game and posted as an april fool video
WHY DIDN'T YOU WAIT FOR THE SPURR!!!!!!!!!
😡 I am MAD!
Machine gun makes you fly when you shoot down which is great for speed
Spur is slow af
What language is he set on?
Its gibberish, the games original text file I believe
+dastrn That's what happens to Japanese games if you don't set your system to Japanese locale.
Tear♪ Yep!
Noooooo you killed King :(
Vivi23 Blue23 He did not. King dies anyway regardless of player's actions.
he DID kill toroko though. not like he had a choice, but that was him.
P O L A R I S
lol Dracolanturn fucked up the story
Toroko is the second fight, Igor is the first
+mullet_muffins No, Toroko is the first. She attacks you before getting abducted by Misery.
N
U
says sword is best wepon. (SPORE!!!)
smash zone spurr*
the sword is better with crowds at level 3. spurr is best against long straight lines of enemies or a single boss.
Paradox . Bubbline
This announcer Sounds bored as fuck xD
did he actually just unironically say that the machine gun is good oof
The machine gun is really good, granted you have to not suck at the game and keep it at lv3, but it's broken the utility it has.
Did you even watch the run?
It's need for not losing time
So am I the only one who calls balrog "knock off kool-aid man"?
I mean, he literaly yells "OH YEAH!" wile busting through a wall, multiple times
It's originally huzzah, but they changed it in the nicalis port, or cave story plus
