Watch in HD!
WARNING! Most of this video was non-TAS playing, played with a keyboard...so a lot of it looks pretty bad. XD 0:30 - 1:34 is really boring by the way. So skip that if you want.
Please do not complain about the song. I really don't care if you didn't like it because it is repetitive or something like that. This genre of music is meant to be repetitive. Mute the volume if you dislike it. :]
This video started out as a tutorial on how to do the coin duplication glitch that I recently found, in Shifting Sand Land. I found this glitch trying to think of a way to exploit Task 20 in SilentSlayers TAS Competition. Due to complications, Task 20 was changed to something else. So that's when I decided to make a tutorial. The glitch can be used to collect the maximum amount of coins (255). From there I got bored and decided to try and get a star while holding a bob-omb and using it's backwards momentum. While making my way towards the star, I found a death glitch that let Mario die on the pyramid, like he was sinking into sand. After I found that, I started finding more and more things that are possible with a bob-omb. Then I experimented like crazy and that is how this video was made. Below are descriptions of the cllips in order.
Everything in this video was found by myself. Whether any of it is new, I do not know. So sorry if any of it is old.
Clip 1 (Get the Star with a Bob-omb)
- Again, looks pretty bad because it is mostly non TAS
- Took awhile to finally get up to the star itself :P
- Chose to make this, Clip number 1 because it shows how I got to all those areas with the bob-omb
Clip(s) 2/3/4 (Death Glitches)
Clip 2
- Not really a glitch. I just hit an invisible wall funny and got turned around
Clip 3
- The first death glitch I found
- Randomly happened while trying to get to the star
- Cause is grinding
Clip 4
- My favorite death glitch
- Like clip 3 because the cause was grinding, from what I can tell
Clip(s) 5/6/7 (Sliding Glitches)
Clip 5
- My favorite of the three sliding glitches
- Gave me a random burst of speed into a roll
- Not sure if the cause was the bob-omb exploding, or something to do with speed (or both?)
Clip 6
- Backwards speed let me avoid death-by-sinking sand
- Backwards speed pushed me through the fence
- Would have been in an infinite butt-slide if not for the fence intersection
Clip 7
- Not a glitch
- Grinding looked cool backwards so I kept it :P
Clip 8 (Ground-Pounding Fun)
- Shows that if you ground-pound with backwards momentum, you keep it
- Pyramid stalled Mario and makes the distance show up better
Clip(s) 9/10 ("Classic Bob-Omb Glitch")
Clip 9
- Pokey head =D
Clip 10
- Pokey Body/Coin
- Can be used for coin duplication
- First showing of coin duplication in Shifting Sand Land
Clip 11 (Wing-Cap Fun)
- Uses backwards speed for entertainment
- Maybe useful, but I doubt it
- Liked the camera angles at the end of the clip
- Shows the ground-pound glitch from clip 8, a couple more times
All right. I think that covers everything glitch and glitch-related. :)
