Wow, I just watch everyone of your Yoshi's Island vids (couldn't find 6'5 anywhere, did I miss it?) and I have to say I'm very impressed. I love watching speed runs, especially of older games I played when I younger. I actually couldn't tell in most cases that you weren't using any tools to help you, so awesome job!

Which level did you find the most difficult? 5-4 looked the most difficult from the viewer's perspective, but it may be different when you're actually playing it.

Thanks for the support. I'm in the process of improving all these current videos to my current, higher standard. :)

6-5 "The Very Looooong Cave" doesn't exist. I haven't improved the original record from David Gibbons' 2004 effort. I'm going to finally get around to that sometime this year/2010 however.

As far as which level was the most difficult, probably this one, unsurprisingly.

Getting 20 stars in just red-egging shy guys (the easiest enemy to do so with) in the forced scroll caused headaches of massive quantity. There were times where the dumb witch wouldn't make shy guys at all and all I had to work with were useless bats the entire time, other times I'd only get 1 shy guy to work with and accidentally kill it, etc.

I settled for this attempt only because I was growing increasingly tired of this level (I was stuck on this level for about 3-5 days, with day 5, the day this attempt happened, well over 5 hours into recording that day alone).

Is there a way to determine what door you get or did you just have to try a bunch of times until you got the one you wanted?

[trihex]

I'm actually staring at the doors rotating until I can see #4 (The fastest route BY FAR), then shoot it.

This level is far overdue for improvement (just look at the final boss fight, lol), as I can memorize when to fire an egg off-screen to hit door #4, rather than wait and try to hit it.

That boss music sounds like it could be Mega Man X boss music. It rocks!

On another note, I remember the first time I made it to Bowser. I was totally caught off guard when he got all the way up to the front and destroyed the platform I was fighting him from.

I watched a lot of parts in this overall speedrun (levels), I can never understand how someone can be this good at this game :p
