I love that you don't try to add a bunch of technicalities to your runs. A lot of other creators in this genre are more concerned with the letter of the law, but you keep the spirit of the challenge and teach us a ton about our favorite games
I think it is fun that people treat them differently, but i agree that it is more interesting to see someone play the game instead of skipping 90% to avoid one single jump or something. My least favourite is people doing a ‘ No __ challenge’ and the first time they have to do said thing they announce it couldn’t be done and end the video and run.
@@MrUnmake I dunno if I have ever seen that. Usually they continue the run but say if you wanna count it as a failure, by all means. Guess this is where our circles overlap lol
It's one of the things I really appreciate about NGPlus. The other being that he tries to do as much as he can possibly do within the restrictions instead of just the bare minimum.
Great work! Unbelievable how much is actually possible wingless in this game. Also huge shout out to 420chef, that Gulp door deload on Switch is big brain stuff^^
Ahhhh the memories, finding your channel to the original Spyro flightless run and then talking to you about the sequel run, man time really does fly. Unlike Spyro cause that’s illegal.
Yay 🎉 another Spyro video 😊 I heard you say in one of your live streams that you're burnt out from Spyro. So enjoy your break from Spyro, and I look forward to your other challenge runs, plus when you get to it #3 (year of the dragon). Thanks so much ❤
I’m curious how much playtime and testing is required for a vid like this. You definitely devote lots of time, energy, and research into each level. Big props to you
“It’s not like this is his only job or anything...” Sparx, panting, half dead from taking damage for Spyro: “Am I a joke to you?!” I’m being silly, of course. Fantastic job as usual! You’ve really got this down to a science, from the gameplay to the organization to the video editing. I was thrilled to see this notification 🙂
Just wanted to say I really love these videos. They’re quite fun and really interesting, seeing how far you can go. I can’t wait to see this challenge in Spyro 3 reignited!
I enjoyed when you streamed this! And of course, awesome video! I can imagine you must have patience of a saint to go through so many parts without gliding! Can't wait for part 3! And then who knows. It's been a journey. I still remember Spyro 1 on PS1 glideless run a few years ago!
The glitches and tech in this run are so amazing. I love the rocket riding, the ladder glitch, 'waiting 75 minutes makes you jump higher', the 30 second supercharge smuggling and the glitched PS1 Ripto state.
Riding the rocket!? I have never imagined you could do that. This is why I love challenge runs. And I gotta keep praising your super charge skills, because damn! That Hurricos super charge was amazing.
Another great video, the effort you put into these is incredible. Also hearing you say that username at 1:03:38 made me laugh out loud. They definitely picked that absurd name just to hear some poor soul try and say it XD
I like the integrity of this channel. Not naming names, but, some other creators will be like "it's not technically doing ___", but IMO it is doing ___.
To answer your question about the PS1 Ripto fight with the weird loading, you can actually damage Ripto in his 3rd phase by charging him, it would be longer and harder, but yes you could definitely do it without flying
I have close to zero interest in Spyro and most channel runs (aside maybe soulslike games and Morrowind) but I enjoy your videos for the narration, clear explanations and clear passion for the games
16:00 Imagine if you had just seen JAWS before playing Spyro and this happened. I didn't know that glitch existed tbh but would scare the daylights out of anyone 0_0
Pretty sure you can defeat the breeze harbor spike ball thingies without the cannon by just super charging into them, since you can also do that with superflames, and super charges and flames usually break similar things. Giant steel beetle-spiders in spyro 1, those reinforced boxes usually meant for fireworks, etc...
16:09 hahaha that's fuckin amazing, i was a Spyro 3 kid and only got to play 2 as an adult, but that absolutely would have traumatised me as a child too 😂
To the "Do I have to play the Legend of Spyro Trilogy" comment at the end I say yes! Because you can't say you've challenge ran the entire catalogue of Spyro games unless you do the Legend of Spyro Trilogy. Besides the dialogue in the trilogy is about as cheesy as a B-Movie which in my opinion gives the trilogy a certain charm to it. Though I do still want to to squash Legend of Spyro Sparks all these years later and you will want to as well because he's easily one of if not the most annoying character in the trilogy.
1:04:38 If you were thinking about a Legend of Spyro run, then how about an Classic themed run where you only use mechanics from the original games, so things like the charge, primary breath attack, dodge and glide. Or maybe an elemental attacks only run. With Dawn of the Dragon you could also keep the spirit of the Glideless runs going by not using free flight. Just suggestions of course. Maybe I'll dust off the old Ps2 and see if I can get some second hand copies and try those ideas myself, I've been wanting to get into the LoS series again anyway.
It's very cool to see all the things you can do with clever use of glitches. Unfortunately, I don't think anything which requires the use of a save file completed with gliding and flying should count. It may be a different save file, but you're still making use of gliding and flying in order to get more completion on the main file.
Yeah, I felt the same. Using glitches in the game I can just about agree with, but to use the permanent superflame powerup means having to legitimately complete the game once 100%, which clearly cannot be done without flying or gliding. So I'd say that shouldn't count, only what can be done on the first save-file.
Yeah the reignited trilogy is rather jank but i love it anyway. It gets a lot of flak these days for how glitchy it is. Personally i never encountered any bugs unless i was intentionally screwing around, and Spyro is a cozy game not a super serious one.
For the ps1 version with the power up transfer thru levels, what happens if you bring the power up that lets you stand in lava for ripto? I’ve not played this so might have misunderstood what the power up or the glitch does
i think showing off version exclusive glitches is fun. at the end of the day it's the same game, just on different hardware, so why not allow yourself to use everything to your advantage
I didn't catch many of these streams, but when you did the level storage with the speed way powers did you have fun flying around levels that weren't meant to have flying? I think my favorite type of glitches are out of bounds type glitches.
5:26 Yeah, you can. It's super difficult (speaking as someone who doesn't try for glitches often), but at just the right angle, you can. Source: Wanted to see if I could get 100% in this level (while in New Game+ with the infinite fireball powerup) without coming back later or paying Moneybags for the bridge.
I think i misunderstood a certain section you said about the nintendo switch version. Is the trick only possible on the nintendo switch version and not on other consoles? So you can get to to that bit on consoles then have to use the switch version, then switch back?
That trick is only possible on Switch, but since I didn't know this until I'd done half the challenge on PS4, I had to borrow footage of it. I grabbed the Breeze Harbour Talisman without collecting a single gem to simulate what's actually possible if the whole challenge were performed on Switch.
When you start using the speedway glitch all I can think of is the samurai jack episode where he learns to "jump good" Aku: "you can fly?!?" Samurai Jack: "No. Jump good."
Yeah there's definitely a cat in the background, it's very unsettling because I have 3 cats and I keep thinking I've shut them in a room somewhere in my house

It's one of the things I really appreciate about NGPlus. The other being that he tries to do as much as he can possibly do within the restrictions instead of just the bare minimum.
idk if i've said, but i really like that the last rule is always "when we do x, we win". the tone of voice you use for it always makes me smile
I screamed when Spyro rode that rocket in idol springs like baron munchhausen. Awesom vid, thanks ng+!
33:23 the things I see you do in these games never ceases to amaze me
Thanks. It took a lot of practice 😅
ZERO in the chat!
Good to see you here Zero 🙂
Great work! Unbelievable how much is actually possible wingless in this game. Also huge shout out to 420chef, that Gulp door deload on Switch is big brain stuff^^
Thanks for the 1 hour Spyro entertainment. It was fun to watch both this video and the streams 😁
17:47 Uh…. Isn’t that a snow leopard? I’m pretty sure he outright calls it that lmao
You have a voice made for radio. Thank you for this video, looking forward to the spyro 3 video :)!
24:27 Fracture Hills was always my personal favorite Spyro level. Just has all the vibes.
Ahhhh the memories, finding your channel to the original Spyro flightless run and then talking to you about the sequel run, man time really does fly. Unlike Spyro cause that’s illegal.
Ah, Ripto...
He's done it again...
That being said, I'm crazy hyped for Reignited 3! Thanks for all the hard work, NG+!
That super charge route in Hurricos is absolutely insane
Yay 🎉 another Spyro video 😊
I heard you say in one of your live streams that you're burnt out from Spyro. So enjoy your break from Spyro, and I look forward to your other challenge runs, plus when you get to it #3 (year of the dragon). Thanks so much ❤
I’m curious how much playtime and testing is required for a vid like this. You definitely devote lots of time, energy, and research into each level. Big props to you
The in-game time is shown at the end, 21 hours. But that's not including the time spent researching, scripting and editing. Thank you
@ thank you sir! I haven’t gotten to the end yet, as I like watching your videos as I fall asleep. Very calming voice lol
“It’s not like this is his only job or anything...”
Sparx, panting, half dead from taking damage for Spyro: “Am I a joke to you?!”

Bzzzt bzzz bzz bzzt bzz
Also, yes. You do have to play the Legend of Spyro series. It must be done.
Absolutely love that Trilogy, some of the best voice acting of all time, especially A New Beginning
GGs!! your videos are the most fun i had watching those kind of challenges
Just wanted to say I really love these videos. They’re quite fun and really interesting, seeing how far you can go. I can’t wait to see this challenge in Spyro 3 reignited!

Loved the first one! Excited to see this
Im going to consider this video an early birthday gift, thanks Nathan 🤭❤ Absolutely love your Spyro videos and now we have another one
This is the most excited I’ve been for a video release all year!! Fantastic work, Nathan ❤
These videos never cease to amaze me. Well done man
Awesome work on the second game! Love some of the techniques in this version, like the platform juggling in Cloud Temples. Excited for part 3!
The glitches and tech in this run are so amazing. I love the rocket riding, the ladder glitch, 'waiting 75 minutes makes you jump higher', the 30 second supercharge smuggling and the glitched PS1 Ripto state.
These videos are always edited so well and it's even orderly and easy to follow
I swear, that chocobo riding music you use has me instantly humming every time.
Riding the rocket!? I have never imagined you could do that. This is why I love challenge runs.
And I gotta keep praising your super charge skills, because damn! That Hurricos super charge was amazing.
Another great video, the effort you put into these is incredible. Also hearing you say that username at 1:03:38 made me laugh out loud. They definitely picked that absurd name just to hear some poor soul try and say it XD
I was amazed by your jumps on the flying platforms! 😲
16:04 I actually did not know that could happen xD that's terrifying lmaoo
It was blast watching your streams and its still awesome watching episode 💜
NGPlus: "30 seconds isn't near enough to do the trolley mini game"
The minigame host: "trouble with the trolley eh?" lmao
Always great content, thank you
Love the channel Broski. Keep up the great challenges 🎉
I absolutely adore this channel
Incredible video like all the other challenge runs! We like it :)
Lunch hour at work just hit and video is fresh off the press. I am ready.
It’s a shame you had a little trouble with the trolly, eh
😂
This is crazy! Can't wait to see the tricks you do in the Hero's tale trilogy when you get to them
I like the integrity of this channel. Not naming names, but, some other creators will be like "it's not technically doing ___", but IMO it is doing ___.
Maybe don't watch my MGS3 video then 😅 Thank you
You can say these videos are the reignited glide-less trilogy
Great video. as enjoyable as usual. thank you very much!!!
18:10 shows a wrong orb count. you got the orb from the wolf escorting
Thanks! And oops 😬
LETS GOOO been waiting !
To answer your question about the PS1 Ripto fight with the weird loading, you can actually damage Ripto in his 3rd phase by charging him, it would be longer and harder, but yes you could definitely do it without flying
Wow, I really wish I'd known about it back when I made that video 😅
The hardest working gamer couple on the internet is at it again!
My boi 420chef made it in the video!
probably the most well-picked sponsor for this channel
I love these videos, amazing stuff
Another glorious day when you upload spyro 🎉🎉🎉
I have close to zero interest in Spyro and most channel runs (aside maybe soulslike games and Morrowind) but I enjoy your videos for the narration, clear explanations and clear passion for the games
Love the videos! keep at it
16:00 Imagine if you had just seen JAWS before playing Spyro and this happened. I didn't know that glitch existed tbh but would scare the daylights out of anyone 0_0
Dawn of the Dragon would probably be super fun without gliding/flying with the triangle + r1 glitch
I was just rewatching all your glideless runs yesterday and I was wondering when Spyro Re-2 would be coming out. Apparently less than 24 hours. :)
Yay! New episode of my favourite series
Pretty sure you can defeat the breeze harbor spike ball thingies without the cannon by just super charging into them, since you can also do that with superflames, and super charges and flames usually break similar things.
Giant steel beetle-spiders in spyro 1, those reinforced boxes usually meant for fireworks, etc...
16:00 oh my god, that would've been a very effective jump scare for child me lmfao
This was awesome, let's go for the 3rd!!!
16:09 hahaha that's fuckin amazing, i was a Spyro 3 kid and only got to play 2 as an adult, but that absolutely would have traumatised me as a child too 😂

Busted! You were Para GLIDING! 😏
Hah!, I noticed that too.
That's fine though, Spyro doesn't have to use his wings for that, just like humans don't when we do it
"you should watch the spyro one video"
Sir you assume i havent watch it several times already
You love to see it folks
Great watch as always mate. One question though...
Trouble with the trolley, eh?
Yeah the reignited trilogy is rather jank but i love it anyway.
It gets a lot of flak these days for how glitchy it is. Personally i never encountered any bugs unless i was intentionally screwing around, and Spyro is a cozy game not a super serious one.
Oh my god I had the EXACT SAME ROBOT SHARK TRAUMA. I HATE Aquaria Towers so much, it's the level I dread the most when replaying Spyro 2.
I've been here since you guys had around thousand subs, and let me tell you, you still deserve more than 90k :)
I love seeing a new vid by ng+ and then realizing you missed a vid too
Woooo! New Spyro Video!
I hate to be that person, but that NPC,s pet wolf is actually a snow leopard, I believe
If you play The Legend Of Spyro that would be super duper cool
For the ps1 version with the power up transfer thru levels, what happens if you bring the power up that lets you stand in lava for ripto?
I’ve not played this so might have misunderstood what the power up or the glitch does
You can only transfer the Super Flame power up specifically from Dragon Shores. It's actually developer intended
i think showing off version exclusive glitches is fun. at the end of the day it's the same game, just on different hardware, so why not allow yourself to use everything to your advantage
I didn't catch many of these streams, but when you did the level storage with the speed way powers did you have fun flying around levels that weren't meant to have flying? I think my favorite type of glitches are out of bounds type glitches.
id love to see you do something with sly cooper!
You should definitely make a compilation of these when they're all done
He does have a playlist of the ones he's already done I think
Would a no sparkle run on sly cooper be possible?
Not sure, I'll have to actually play it 😅
I love this channel
" 30 seconds is not enough time to complete the trolley minigame."
So... Trouble with the trolley eh?
5:26 Yeah, you can. It's super difficult (speaking as someone who doesn't try for glitches often), but at just the right angle, you can.
Source: Wanted to see if I could get 100% in this level (while in New Game+ with the infinite fireball powerup) without coming back later or paying Moneybags for the bridge.
6:15 Hunter tried his best to encourage Spyro to glide, but Spyro had other ideas!
It's here! :D
Be interesting to see how far you could get in the GBA Spyro games without gliding or flying... 😏
1:04 as a dev and a former bootcamp instructor I am offended 😂😂😂
did you learn rocket riding from dmc3 dante?
What about the glide using the teleporter from Summer Forest to Autumn Plains? Doesn't that invalidate the glitch to deload gulp's door?
Ah, I guess it counts the same as a level transition?
I think i misunderstood a certain section you said about the nintendo switch version. Is the trick only possible on the nintendo switch version and not on other consoles? So you can get to to that bit on consoles then have to use the switch version, then switch back?

final fantasy music got me like :smiling_face:
Oof right in the childhood nostalgia
Okay.. thats something i never thought existed
Im surprised and actually confused
Oh geee I wonder what the final boss is like
When you start using the speedway glitch all I can think of is the samurai jack episode where he learns to "jump good"
Aku: "you can fly?!?"
Samurai Jack: "No. Jump good."
Yeah there's definitely a cat in the background, it's very unsettling because I have 3 cats and I keep thinking I've shut them in a room somewhere in my house

What accent is it you have? I like it
Thanks, it's Midlands I suppose
