Love this game. The graphics are still very decent after more than 20 years. It has a special vibe. I love the sound effects too and the gameplay. It has some very tricky maps tho! :D
I agree (trigger warning) I wasn't a big fan of playing this game but loved watching my brother play it the dark vibes all the light off at 3am just hanging out seeing the great atmosphere of this game
It's fantastic seeing you dance around bombs and enemy AI so easily. The way you deactivate those alternating colour bombs so fast, too! Amazing to see! A few times I went "WHAT HOW??" Out loud haha Great to see people still run this game!
This might be the most impressive speed run ive seen of any game. I played this game when i was younger and never finished it, let alone save all the others. Even now i couldn't save them all with no time limit. The game is extremely difficult and unforgiving on its own, so this is crazy. Im a good gamer too, I had a full ride scholarship in college to play overwatch. Maybe ill finish this game onw of these days, seeing this crazy speed run brought back memories lol. You should stream more of these oddworld speed runs
This is absolutely mind boggling how you are able to run through the levels so fast. At some point I thought you were running cheats but obviously not. I see some of the commenters asked for a verbal talk-through of how you do some of these godly moves. I've recently started playing this game again after 22 years and I still enjoy it. I've found so many more secret levels compared to when I first played it back then. Please keep the content coming.
I can assure you no cheats were used lol. I still haven't got around to talking through the run but I do hope to in the near future. I'm still speedrunning Oddysee and Exoddus on Twitch so all my best times will be uploaded here.

This is awesome. Would you be interested in doing some kind of explainer video talking about some of the tricks and techniques in this game's speedrun?
@@Namesoom I'd be into it. Some of the stuff in the run looks so confusing, like when sligs seem to totally disappear when you move between screens. Even if it's not the full length of the run, some info on the main tricks and strats would be cool.
@hard2thecoreforlife You are clearly berry jealous of Namesoom. You’ve devoted a lot of time over the last few days in his comments section alledging that he cheats, yet we’ve never seen you in any Abe livestreams. You must be a berry perculiar individual.
He is cheating all the way .. zappers dont hit em .. Boulders like this .. he jumps right trough them every time 😂 mines explode -> he lives .. enemies commit suicide dozens of times 😂 ........ fake
the swinging balls are bullshit. they dont hit when they are supposed to and hit when arent supposed to. hardest part for me in the whole gawd damn game
As a kid I've played this many many times on Sunday with a snack or something haha. It's amazing to see anyone play through what I remember as one of the most difficult games ever this fast and accurately. Amazing job. Also the graphics (especially backgrounds and transitions) are still beautiful IMO
Chanting while being chased by that first scrab so he falls down the gap is hilarious. I've always done that hidden area the hard way - gonna have to try this one!
I've finished this game with my friend when we were 10 years old. It took us countless hours and we died hundreds of times. Doing it with all secret rooms and saving all of mudkons makes this five sicker
Amazing run! I got stuck really early playing casually for the first time, and seeing this I wonder what was the intended way of beating levels without the speedrun strats :D
happy to see this game getting some love, i played it when i was a kid but i didnt get very far sadly :D one day i will beat! it blows my mind that you completed the game 100% in 63 minutes, great!
Amazing run. Interesting to see the ai manipulation used, some of which I'd never seen before. I'm always learning something new about this game! And what amazing art in this game, some truly brilliant environments. I'm curious what patch of the game you use, as some art looks a little different (but maybe I'm misremembering) and whether the AI tricks used are present in all versions. Cheers!
Wait... The run was clearly performed on the PC version, yet in the bottom left corner, there's an image of a PlayStation controller showing the button combinations of the PlayStation version. 😄
@@Namesoom Ok, I think I finally got the memo. I googled it and found a way to make gaming controllers, including PlayStation-branded ones, work on PCs. One solution is called InputMapper, and it totally makes sense for speedrunning. 🤦♂😂🥴
The slig survived because I left the screen too early. Some sligs will not die if you are on another screen and some will. This was the biggest mistake in this run.
Just to add to my learned friend’s reponse. Some sligs despawn when you leave the screen. He left the screen just a frame or so too early, meaning the slig despawned before the bomb could interract with him and kill him. If it had killed him, the slig would be registered as dead and would not be able to respawn again.
We save and quit a couple times during the run because the game experiences memory corruption after so long, we’re not sure why it happens but the Relive project has fixed it so the devs of relice may know why.
Saw at least 9 times when you needed to die. Like the enemies cannot attack you but chase you. Also saw multiple times when the bullet needed to hit you or the slogs needed to catch you. What the heck?
Oh yes it is fake.. Completly fake . Zappers dont take him down .. sliggs scrabs kill themselves dozens of times in pits .. multiple mines dont kill him its so obvious .. these boulders he jumps right through them 😂 and still he says he is not cheating 😂
@@HardToTheCoreForLife Feel free to try everything I did in this on the PC version and you will see that magically everything I do is possible. I never claimed this was possible on the PS1 version and most speedrunners run on the PC version because it is faster. You seem very obsessed with telling everyone that I cheated in this run. Maybe you should go take a 10km hike and think about life. Is this the best use of your time? Maybe try to speedrun the PS1 version and show us all your skills.
@@Namesoom ok ok 👍🏻 say it from the beginning then .. still 🤔 I wonder about .. For instance why do these Sligs both kill themselves at ?.. and why aren’t you affected by these mines / zappers .. admit that it’s weird no? .. you say you played it on ps too so you must know something is completely off about this pc version .. that is so not the oddysee I know
@@HardToTheCoreForLife I have to agree with you on this one. I've played the ps1 version and this was definitely suspect. It is much easier to cheese speedruns on PC and have it look legit.
Hi Teelo, the game was badly ported from PS1 to PC which causes crashes and missing assets (missing lifts, bombs etc). Restarting prevents memory corruption and random crashes. That's why we save and restart at certain parts of the game, in this case at the beginning of Scrabania and Zulag 1.
@@teelo12000 It doesn't crash on console (the system it was created for). The PC version is just ported from the console version so it was not really tested as far as I know. You will have issues unless you save and restart. But if you're doing a console run you don't need to do any of this at all :)
Is this done all in one take or is each stage attempted multiple times until you clear a segment with perfect timing and then edit everything together at the end?
You see the number right in the top right of the left-hand panel? That’s his number of attempts. That’s how 😊 And I’m not sure, but that’s not necessarily every attempt he’s done, but it’s atleast that number.
The game’s memory data becomes corrupted for unknown reasons, and seems to only begin happening mid-way into the game. Closing and re-opening the game allows the memory to start afresh and we find the game is able to run without corruption since we began doing this. Although, having deaths and not following the route we use (like if you have to backtrack becase of a mistake you make) can re-introduce corruption. Having a near flawless run and following the protocol of using the saves and restarts seems to prevent corruption from occuring almost 100% of the time
