I just can't believe it dude. This was the oldest network speedrun record I guess, and you just beat it. you never cease to amaze me! Huge congratulations!
Thanks! Mountain run world record getting beaten is long overdue, so it feels nice for it to finally fall. It standing for 270 days, which is over 85% of astro's playroom history, is quite the achievement indeed
Thank you! Mountain run is quite a complicated level, so there's still a lot of room for improvement here, which can't be said about many of the other network speedruns
@@Mermaider I would love for Astro to become a really big speedgame in the future. Some of the world records only have a couple more frames to save with the current strategies, so there's no doubt in a year or two the records won't be anything short of incredible, and if they catch the attention of someone like Karl Jobsts or SummoningSalt, they might even make a video on them. I guess only time will tell what journey this game will go on in the speedrunning community
Congratulations on your score! Tell me, how do you get the character to stay in the air continuously for certain moments? What keys must you press for it to work? I don't know if I missproke...
So staying in the air for a longer time than usual is called a double hover. For double hover you want to punch before falling off a ledge and then instantly press X to hover. Do this correctly and the game will allow you to do a second hover and punch in the air
@@commander-fox-q7573 to be fair mountain isn't really the level for crispy lines, because most of the time save comes from gaining height as quickly as possible, but if I get 31 I won't be against my lines being called crispy :P
Thanks! Sub 32 is the goal here, but in the past I've found it hard to stay motivated to lower my time if I already have world record, so we'll see if I can push this lower anytime soon
@@miksuwaaan7527 I wish I was good enough to push you smh this game would be so lit if you had someone on your level. I might try for .04 to motivate you but I doubt I’ll ever even get .08 tbh
@@Relisoc I'm still interested in trying to lower this, but I can't say for certain I'll still be interested in a week, so while it's possible I might lower this record more, it's far too early to tell if I'll lower it all the way to 31, even if I did have a competitor. It's also really hard to tell how difficult beating this will be, because no one else at the top level is doing mountain attempts right now and I skipped from 32.13, so I don't have any runs close to this I could compare to

@@DailyVarietyContent practice makes perfect. Grinding until you learn the optimal route is certainly the most important thing for you to do right now if you want to get a time below 34 or even 33 seconds

Just got 33.91 with the double hover in the middle of the run (god that jump is hard as hell to pull off). Although it didn't save as much time as I thought it would (although my ending was not that great compared to my ending on my previous PB of 34.04.

I did, but I didn't spend too much time on it, so it might have been inaccurate. Looked like I saved one frame right at the end with the wooden platforms and one at 0:26 - 0:28
@@miksuwaaan7527 I’ve always wondered if during that long jump at 0:24 if you’re supposed to take that very slight left angle, or if going directly straight to the wall can be optimal. I’ve always done the slight left angle cause it feels like it’s impossible to do the climb optimally without it, but that might be misguided
@@Relisoc right now I'd say taking a slight left angle might be optimal, but I haven't done any testing for it. There's still like two or three more parts in this level that I'm not sure what's actually fast and what's not, so I feel like figuring those parts out before doing more wr attempts could be a good idea. Just before getting this pb I spent like a good ten minutes looking at 0:26 - 0:31 from different angles, just trying to see what'd be optimal there, because that part has always seemed like such a mystery to me
@@miksuwaaan7527 yeah I’ve always found this level the most interesting to grind cause it lacks the bullshit that space and frozen have, and there’s a little more intricacy to it than stormy. It’s a bit obtuse to figure exactly what’s optimal but that’s part of the fun
@@Relisoc yeah honestly after spending so much time defending stormy wr, then grinding climbing and then doing any%, mountain is such a nice change of pace. It isn't as simple as stormy, you can grind it more than climbing, and you don't have to reset 5 minutes into the run 85% of the time, it's just a nice time.

I don't have confidence in getting it soon, but I'll definitely keep going for it. I'm getting more consistent with mid 32.1X's now, but that's still very far away from a 31
@@Relisoc yeah hard to estimate the difficulty of it. I haven't done many attempts after getting this time, so it's still my only 32.0X, but I have at least half a dozen 32.13's and most of them felt like good runs, so saving 9 frames from them sure feels challenging. When I have like 5 - 10 32.0X's I might be able to somewhat accurately tell how long it'll take
Jesus Christ, frozen wr is .56 and I’m sill stuck at fucking .63 with almost 50k attempts.... I’m actually so trash at this game. I’ll try to pb on mountain but I just don’t think I’m cut out for speedrunning
@@Relisoc a third .0X would be cool. I've done about a thousand attempts after getting this .06 and it's still my only .0X. I did however get a 32.16 no trampoline skip yesterday
@@miksuwaaan7527 my best run so far is a .28 missed skip. so .19 pace if my math was right on it saving 5 frames. i could have been wrong about that though, maybe it's as much as like 7 frames
@J James I've never timed it so I wouldn't know, but surely the time save can't be the same everytime, because how quickly you jump off the ledge before the trampoline can vary. So maybe on average it's like five frames, but a frame perfect jump would make it six Edit: actually no that wouldn't make a difference. All jumps should be equal, right?
