Ty the Tasmanian Tiger - Speedrun World Record History
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 พ.ค. 2022
- Speedrunning breeds competition. Friendly feuds are forged throughout all of speedrun history over trying to beat a certain time. We’ve seen this play out time and time again. Collaboration often takes a backseat to competition. Which makes the story of Ty the Tasmanian Tiger all the more remarkable.
Of the many popular platforming games that came out in the late 90s and early 2000s, Ty is not one of them. However, the small community of Ty runners saw the game not for what it was, but what it could be. They all worked together to make it the run it is today. They did it for the love of the game. They held out hope that their faith would be rewarded with a great speedrun. Were they right? Welcome to Speed Docs.

Lets goooooo! I'm so excited there's finally documentation of the history of this game. Theres just so much history that the active members in the community don't know about. Finally the history will be shared! Thank you guys for taking your time to make this
Well said Kama
@@brandornthegreatest9672 💜
Ayeee, Kama finally getting the recognition he deserves!
This was fun to watch. I actually bought the first game on Steam while watching this.
Just watched your runs on SGDQ. The first one's timer hadn't started for a few seconds after the run started. I feel like there was missing hype knowing that hahaha
Was a pleasure working on this with you guys, I was genuinely impressed by your work ethic and professionalism putting this together and I can't thank you guys enough for making this a reality!
Ty has been one of the best things to happen to me in the last year and a bit and I've got absolutely no regrets about my journey with the game, I'm looking forward to otgers sharing in this journey pushing the game forward collaboratively with the friends we've made along the way in pursuit of our dreams!
Never thought I's get so involved with a game other than Age of Empires 2, but damn this game has a wonderful community as well!

We've been wanting to get some sort of wr history video out for a while now, either made by one of us or somebody else. It's amazing seeing one finally made ❤
My hype levels are reaching tremendous heights. The whole Speed Docs team are absolutely the greatest.
i own all 7 Ty the Tasmanian Tiger. the original 4 and the 1-3 remasters.
nobody really talks about Ty but its one of my all time favorite combat platformers. im excited to see a somewhat large channel cover one of the games.
Wait there's a 4? I remember loving the first 3 as a kid but never played the 4th
@@jamesolson6544 yeah, sadly 4 was made after the studio went bankrupt. its a low budget 2d side scroller with a very short play time and story. the studio has returned from said bankruptcy in style by remastering all the games but 4 has remained untouched with devs stating they will not remake 4 into a 3d platformer. they are currently working on a Ty 5.
most studios never make it back from bankruptcy but Krome said NO and crawled back from the grave.
These games were a huge part of my childhood, absolutely loved them. So dope to find out there was a speedrun community for it.
Admittedly, I was suspicious about how entertaining this would be yet the Speed Docs teams manages to created another stellar episode. Enthralling and informative video.
From Australia, loved this game as a child, and so cool how optimised the run has gotten, great doc!
No way I love this game and never thought someone would do a WR history on it
Jak and Daxter, all of the R&C games, and now Ty!?!?! You all are just walking me through my favorite games from my childhood. All that’s left are the other Jak games and Sly Cooper. I love this channel honestly couldn’t ask for more
Such a good documentary, its great to see the Ty speedrunning community get the recognition they deserve!
Now all we need is a 10 hour documentary on the intricacies of Ty cart racing.
Favorite game from my childhood, goddamn
This game was a huge part of my childhood and will forever hold a special place on my heart
Man you have to be kidding
Not to long ago one of the most active runners (Kama) was gonna teach me this game but Emulator was banned and I sadly couldn't pick up the game so I never learned it
But I'm looking forward to this video!
There's a PC Version now, if that changes anything
As the current Max% first place holder on Xbox, XboxOne and Ps2 (recently got the first place revoked on PC), it is insanely great to see people getting both interested on speedrunning the game and listening the story about it. Great video! Ty was the first game I played on PS2 and is a very big part of my childhood, so I enjoyed speedrunning it back when I had the time
Super happy to see proper documentation of TY1 speedrunning. It’s been awesome to watch the speedruns evolve over the the past few years, and I’m really excited to see where it goes next and what new stuff will be found
Got this game on Gamecube a month ago, and it’s real fun! So glad to see a Speed Docs episode about it.
This was incredible to watch. Can’t wait until I’m on the board one day
Happy to be a member of that beautiful Community. Can't wait to see it. ❤️
❤️
♥️
There's something so nice about seeing new content for games you absolutely LOVE that rarely ever get stuff made for them. I'm a massive Ty fan and seeing how far this game was pushed honestly brings a tear to my eye lol
I recently found out about this game's existence after realizing that there's an entire game series based around one of my favorite animals. Saw it, liked it, bought it on my switch and played it. Thought it was amazing so I bought the second game. Now I find out that there's an active speedrun category for it. Just amazing.
I have been waiting so long for this ❤️
Always so much polish to these video, from the choice of background music to the bursts of alliterative wordplay in the script. You are definitely among my favorite channels for speedrun documentaries.
This warms my heart so much. The love these people all bring to such an underrated game. It was mine (and Lawn's) childhood, and every step this game, run, and community have taken just- ah. I'm so glad to see it more alive than ever. Fantastic doco guys, great interviews, and I can't wait to see when sub25 happens imjustsaying. 👀
Sub25?!?!? Give us some credit, Sub20 next week Kappa
@@LawnNZ Pog
Y'all deserve more views, you do great content. Voiceover guy could get a job doing documentaries on TV networks, etc.
This game was my childhood
I'm not sure how I just found this channel, but you guys are doing incredible work. Channels like this one and Summoning Salt just have something that clicks with me.
these videos keep me going, ty based god
Another great doc!! Quality is through the roof!
New speed docs, new storster, new doctor swellman, what a fucking day.
Ok, now this is epic
Bruh
What a good runner. =P
And Lulz_xD
Great names. xD
I had to do some research on how my nickname came about (friends just started calling me it so I had to ask the ones who started it). Apparently someone made a typo of my name and called me "LawnRence" or something and the Lawn stuck. It then spread rapidly between all of my friend groups in AoE2 until it displaced all other nicknames I had before, so I kind of just rolled with it cause people refused to call me Laurence in tight games and and I preferred Lawn over Larry. And thus I became Lawn because of some stranger spelling my name wrong and my friends at the time latching onto it and spreading it amongst all my friends. To this day the only nicknames people use for me are ones my colleagues use and they're quite fond of their own nickname "Rau/Lrau" cause they can just make a funny sound.

BRUH
Ty is one of my favorite platformers. Great music, solid gameplay (although definitely not the most precise controls), and memorable characters.
You are all smashing it! Keep up the incredible content.
Intriguing. I wasn't aware this game had such a following
YESSSSS! My first favorite childhood game! Got this game when I got my ps2 on christmas. Played this game to death.
I played these games many times growing up and have totally forgotten about them. Would love to see a series of these made every now and then!
I comment to help statistics
Love this channel always hyped when I see an upload !!!
Yooooo I've been super hyped for this one!
I played this so much as a kid... but seeing this now all I can say is... that green guy with the metal pot on his head totally reminds me of those brutes in borderlands. lol.
Ty is a solid game, and the art of thunder eggs and opals are quite captivating.
Tttt was such a fucking lit game, excited to watch this!
I loved ty. always felt it was slept on
This is such an under rated channel for such amazing quality. Can't believe you don't have much more subscribers.
Thank you for covering this game
Damn I completely forgot about this game. Loooong lost memory unlocked. Thanks for the great content!!
My favorite channel fs amazing videos keep up the good content
yoo the ty series is one of my favorites
Wow seeing that Trihex tweet at the beginning was a great cameo. I bet he'd like to see that now haha
one of the first video games I ever played! Sadly I never beat it, but it holds such a special spot in my childhood
The Gate Skip arc was the best part of this anime
I’ve always loved Ty, so happy to see this
hype
Never even heard of this game but it looks like fun. Thanks for another great video
Never played this but I knew I had to watch this and knew it would be exciting
i hope you make more videos in the future. u are exceptional at making speedrun docs
For those interested in seeing the run in practice; it's at SGDQ this year!
Some more detail on how the actual skips and mechanics work would have been nice, other than that great video!
I played through Ty about a year or two ago (casually, not a speed runner) and I have to say, it was honestly pretty good. I think in the early 2000s the market was a bit saturated and it was overshadowed by games that were probably a little better but it's genuinely a good game and is not significantly worse than the first crash bandicoot or the like.
If my memory of the third game is correct, it is every bit as good as crash or spyro and might honestly be better than even the more polished later games (not the re-releases of crash/spyro, the original later games).
Thank you for making this! ❤
OMG KIRBY AIR RIDE WAS MY SHIIIIT!!
i remember when i found the swim out of water glitch on like the 2nd day the game was out on switch! i’m not a runner but i AM one for messing around with glitches! me and this other guy from this face book group had lots of fun sending the clips of us swimming out of bounds and such! it was a friendly race where we raced to see who could find methods of swimming out of water on every level! it was a lot of fun
Love this game
Astonishing 🙌
I'd love to see a Ty 2 Retrospective since that one is my childhood game
There's been some pretty dope discoveries in Ty2 recently, InspectionSquid and Kama are the two top runners for Ty2 currently :)
If I had a thunder egg for every time somebody said "let's go" in these videos...
nice
Hey kythol
sped r un 🏃♂️
Thanks for the doc doc
Yoooooo this is going to be so hype!!!!!
Great video!
Loved this game as a kid, and enjoyed the video- but announcing that the tunnel skip was successful at the end of the sub 30 kinda robbed the moment of all the tension you built up
Ironically, the Zappyrang being completely useless other than for that one generator is the reason that Gate Skip is viable
You know it's gonna be good when you're 7 minutes in, the WR is under 2 hours and there are 50 minutes left
What is the name of the song at the beginning?
Also will there be new videos on this channel I love the way history of speed runs presented on this channel
well this was interesting to watch.
Ty needs a new game in the series but that's a good story on the Speedrun history.
New Ty game out September 2022
@@KamaCrimson Okay
Need more info on game mechanics, specific splits, skips, routes
Good work
Can't wait!
There's a lot of lesser known 3D platforming gems from that era and Ty is a king among them
Wow, amazing video. Im guessing they only can skip 1/3 of the game by swimming over the fence to cass pass because they need to get the frostyrang... If you could beat the flame robot in the final boss without it would it be possible to go straight to cass pass without playing any stages after two up?
They specifically need the frostyrangs for the turrets on the final battle. I forget exactly where flamerangs are needed elsewhere.
So for the final boss, there are 3 phases. Phase 1 requires the frostyrangs to destroy the turrets. Phase 2 requires the flamarangs to destroy the wires. If you were to glitch into the wires room with the flamarang and destroy them without first destroying all of the turrets, it would softlock the game as the trigger to receive the doomarang isn't active until you destroy those turrets. To skip frostyrangs, you would need to find another way to destroy the turrets, and to skip flamarangs, you would need to either find another way to destroy the wires OR activate and hit the trigger that gives you doomarangs.
With all that being said, the end game trigger is always active in the pipes, so it mostly comes down to finding a way to get the doomarang early.
I'm only here to say, I had this game, I never got pass the first level, aka, the tutorial :')
I remember giving Cronikeys tips on how to do a skip (don't know how to spell her name) in Banjo-Tooie. She got mad at me for giving her tips when she could not do the skip she tried lmao.
Lol, someone from Ty told us a similar story about her. Sounds consistent!
It's the 40th Anniversary of the Tasmanian Tiger's Extinction and the 10th Anniversary of Ty.
"of the many popular platforming games that came out in the 90s and 2000s, ty is not one of them"
Fuckin savage lmao
I never learned the ice rangs can make platform till i had to google it for the rainbow scale on the river in rainbow hub
Love it
Lets go jorge
SHEEEEEP POWWWWWWER
The fact anyone can speedrun this fun but infuriating game astounds me
Great Video, but how long till you guys do a Sly Game?
We'll look into it!
i remember this game on gamecube
we getting old boys
Yooo
Not related to the speedrun itself, but this might be the closest I can get to finding someone who had an experience with Ty I've never seen replicated.
In Ship Rex, after Maurie gives you the initial introduction for how swimming works, you can talk with him again for a reminder. When I do so, he'll say "and remember:" and then proceed to say something in an unintelligible language, almost like it was warped in the process. Is this a GCN-exclusive thing, or do I just have a weird copy?
what is the song playing at about 17 mins in?
does anyone know the title of the remix at 44:50? that's not the start of it, but I'd love to hear the whole track.
I was always sad that Ty never really got the same attention as the big 3 PS2 platformers (Jak, Ratchet, and Sly) but I think the Ty games were easily their equal.
Edit: Upon reflection, equal might be pushing it. But they are very solid in their own right.
I like Ty
YYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Hey what is the background tune playing at 28:40?
Dude you need to hurry with the uploads!
Does someone know the music at 54:12? :)
