Wow amazing video brother I really love it. Super cool for you to make this. Thank you so much man! Also the 3D maps were a great touch very very well done.
Came down to the comments just to say this. The overhead maps are a really awesome touch that improves the presentation so much. I subscribed just because I appreciate that kind of often underrated attention to detail.
You are my new favorite TH-camr. Your production values are exceptional, you have a great voice and concept for these videos, and im absolutely loving all the content you are putting out. Keep it up, the sky is the limit!!
Great video! I am enjoying all the details. Your maps and recreations are very well executed. I used to love this game when I was young and it's nostalgic to see it again. I love how passionate you are for speedrunning and your enthusiasm toward new players hitting the scene and overtaking your records is refreshing and inspiring. Also, I like the way your pronounce the word "drawers" :>
Your channel is awesome! I'm so glad I decided to take a look at Starshot and found you my dude! We have very similar mission statements as speedrunners.
I really appreciate you making these videos, i used to play a lot this game when i was a kid and to this day i still play it (but now i like to play the Dreamcast version) i know this game is very obscure but is one of my fav n64 games.
I've always wanted to play through this one and the army men helicopter game when i was a kid but I never got the chance. The little army men reminded me of the Small Soldiers movie..that I also missed out on.
I was surprised to see this gsme again, i had it on ps1 as a child though i knew nothing about this kind of collectathoning and could keep gettin stuck until i just gave up on it and shelves it for games like tomb raider or the same toy story game you recently covered
I grew up with army men RTS on game cube and all my life I've seen this game get more attention than the one I've grown to love this whole time. I doubt it will be a good speed run but if anyone wants what I assume is civ6 for babies, please play it. Very fun. Only like a buck fiddy on the right steam sale.
It depends on the game. For some games, people have made software allowing you to export the levels and for other games I have had to export it myself using this method: th-cam.com/video/I6IEllQvnaA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=p2mFHChH0fPmTzyS
Yes, used the setup from this video: th-cam.com/video/I6IEllQvnaA/w-d-xo.html for this game it was a very slow and tedious process since I had to swipe one section at a time and then put them together in blender but Im happy with the results
It often depends on the game and the type of controller and if people have mapped the bottons differently and such. The Hori controller we use is commonly used in speedrunning. Super Mario 64 runners often use them for Bowser throws.

Speedrun history videos are a sort of comfort food video for me.
17:50 my friends and I abused the "Checkpoint Reset" in multiplayer. It warms my heart to see it used in speedruns as well.

Your production values are spectacular. Being able to see the maps is so nice along with your explanations of the various tech in the run.

Amazing video Osukarui! Very epic much love.
Sarge's heroes and Sarge's Heroes 2 were my favorite games as a kid. 3do made great games back then like global assault.
Very well-produced and polished video. Good explanations on the tricks too. Good work
Great video, I always love to see something high quality come from the community of this game.
I love how chill you are man.
This is exactly my kind of content. Thank you for putting in so much work and sharing!
Good content, the format reminded me of rwhitegoose's speedlore content for Goldeneye.
I love the level design in this game so much
love how you do your vids, covering a short history and also showing the maps
Great vids! Just subscribed. Army Men was my jam back in the day. Used to rent Sarge’s Heroes 1 and 2 all the time back then.
You are my new favorite TH-camr. Your production values are exceptional, you have a great voice and concept for these videos, and im absolutely loving all the content you are putting out. Keep it up, the sky is the limit!!
Keep doing your thing man and you’re gonna be big in the speedrun documentary community. The next summoning salt right here
Just got this game off ebay having never played it before. I can't wait to play it honestly
Excellent coverage on this game. Subscribed!
So happy to have found your channel, dude! Great vids!
My brother and I played a lot of this almost 25 years ago, thanks for the nostalgia
I love record progression videos on lesser known games. Great job on this, you've earned my subscription.
Great stuff can’t wait till you take off. Keep grinding.
My cousins let us borrow this on PS1 back in the day.

I normally only watch wr runs but learning about the journey of some speedruns is awesome.
Love your speedrunning videos. Cheers.
Dude
You make great video
Keep working hard!

This brings back a lot of memories. Used to play this alot
Finally... something else than goldeneye.❤❤❤❤ I could watch videos like that all day long. Nice work😊
This game was absolutely fantastic when I was a kid! I would love to see the Army Men series to be remastered some day
HOLY SHIT, I've been looking for this game forever dude, I remember playing this on my dad's n64 but could never remember the name of the game
I really appreciate you making these videos, i used to play a lot this game when i was a kid and to this day i still play it (but now i like to play the Dreamcast version) i know this game is very obscure but is one of my fav n64 games.

Nice! Excellent diagrams and explanations! Really enjoyed it!
Cheers!

Core childhood memory unlocked lol
I remember this game from when i was younger.
It was on Playstation though i never owned a N64
aww man i remember renting this game from blockbuster back in 99
so nostalgic
Man this game brought back memories
I love the 3D graphics of the levels, such awesome and creative work!
I loved this game as a kid
Haven’t thought about this game in a long time. Wow
good video
I'd love to see someone speed run the PS1 Army Men World War games too
i remember playing this game ALOT on the n64!
I remember playing this game when I was a kid and thought the game was super hard because of the controls
Loved watching this video. Army men was the best game ever! BTW, how did you get those 3D renders of the levels? Really cool!
Huge fan of this series and Zen_ivan is the goat
Excellent presentation
I loved Sarge's heroes as a kid, but I'm not sure I ever got past the minefield in like level 1 (I think?)
Awesome video
8:41 The new thick IL WR by me uses this strat :)
Huge congrats!
Love this videos
Archy 2 coldddddd

So good!!!
you need better promotion .boy was I locked in😂
how do you get 3d models from the games that you are talking about?
these graphics on top of the game's landscape always look so cool, i love it

Sarges Heroes 2 video?
howd you extract all the levels like that?
Used this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/I6IEllQvnaA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=cDySe0680xd3IjF7
I would love to see A Bug's Life speedrun analysis by you
"Good to go"
How did you make those 3D maps? Did you extract the data from the game? It's pretty cool.
Yes, used the setup from this video: th-cam.com/video/I6IEllQvnaA/w-d-xo.html for this game it was a very slow and tedious process since I had to swipe one section at a time and then put them together in blender but Im happy with the results
Maybe Conker next? ;D
I think I have this game for the PS2
Isn't using a new controller considered cheating though? I'm not a speed runner.

Fine. I'll subscribe. You're content it... entertaining... I guess....
8:10 that video slide up effect is highly offensive, anyone else?
Pronounced route not rout
Quest 64
Played the shit out of this game on the PSX, this version looks better.
This game was always a game i "wanted to like as a kid" but never had the patience for it. Kinda like quest 64, except that game just sucked lol
Algorithm boosting comment
This game simultaneously sucks and slaps. Best sniper rifle in any game ever made. Party tiiiime...
“Hello, I’m osukWEEB” hahahaha
