The Hardest Kirby Speedrun: World Record Explained
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 พ.ค. 2024
- Over the years, Kirby Super Star still has a community dedicated to exploring, routing, and trying to speedrun the game as fast as possible. A lot of people who have run the Kirby series enough have debated that this particular title may in fact be the most difficult of them all, with it notoriously being very RNG heavy and fast paced. Let's dive into the current fastest ever completion (Any%), and analyze why this run is as challenging as people say it is.

It was awesome being able to work with you to make this video. Yotta is truly the KSS king and deserves way more attention for how much he grinds. Please show him some support as he grinds toward sub-33!!
I love it when storster uploads a video about the hardest kirby speedrun
BRO SAME

31:30 "...because this Knuckle Joe has so much health that it takes 2 kills to attack it.." lol
I was just about to comment about that myself.
The ol swapperoo lol
He's not wrong, that is a lot of health.
KSS truly is a technical tour de force. It's up there with Super Metroid, Mario 64, you name it. I've loved following this game over the years watching great runners like 0xwas, usedpizza, and a ton more. Yotta is absolute GOAT material. Happy to see you shine some light on it!
It really is. It's unfortunate it doesn't have as large of a speedrun community as those games do but that's part of the charm.
@@nippo4512True, i'd still call it one of the more popular speedgames, or at least it was back in the SRL days. Hell, i threw up a sub 2hr hundo run quite a few years ago, even bought a J cart before the SD2SNES could run it lol. I love the movement so much. This game is just a blast!
I remember that run quite well too. The old SRL days are a blast from the past, my friend.
The biggest surprise for me is discovering that Kirby in KSS has a 1/8 chance to drop his ability when taking damage, when I play it it feels like 90%
maybe because lava and some others are 100%?
@@JamesZou1213Could be
Lava, Gordos, angry Scarfies, and probably a few other things actually do have a higher chance at popping your ability.
I thought i knew the most about KSS speedrunning, but there are so many tiny optimisations in this run I wasn't aware of at all. Great Video. Proofs again what kind amazing gamers Yotta and other top runners are!
"I thought I knew the most"
🤔
Kirby Super Star is such a great game and it's awesome there are people still running it. I always found the movement in the original so... distinct. I just like it the best. I'm so fascinated by folks playing it this sharply also. I enjoy the speedruns and LOVED the 4 player race they did at Games Done Quick that one year. Anyway, FANTASTIC video!!! Thanks so much!
Super Star Ultra is one of my favorite childhood games, and I'd casually "speedrun" it as a kid. Excited to watch this!
It's kind of wild how many boss kill strategies are so similar to what I did as a kid!
I like how logical some of the things that made everything faster were, like going on top of elevators.
aye what a good monday: one of my favorite content creators talkin' about one of my favorite pink balls of unimaginable destruction 🤗
Another banger vid from you :)
I must say you have a most enthralling presentation/commentary style - it's both calming and engaging. Great to watch actively, but also great "noise" to put on for a rewatch while im focused on something else
Appreciate that! c:
Wheel's probably my favorite copy ability, and its helper form probably my favorite helper to use in Super Star (more so in Ultra as that's the version I played but alas). Nice to see both used well here. At least in GCO.
Also, when you play in co-op it is insanely OP, as the stars that Kirby shoots do massive damage lol
That was fascinating, learnt a lot! Great work as usual Stor!
Great video. I’m not a speed runner but love watching breakdowns. You really explained this run perfectly for me. Keep up the great work!
Cool to see videos about Kirby speedruns! I have no KSS experience but I do have plenty of experience with KSSU speedruns (Even though I'm like not that great at it). I feel like I don't often see content about it compared to others. But yeah it being dominated by Wheel and Jet doesn't particularly surprise me.
Oh, look, a video on my favorite game of all time. Nice.
She's back! love these videos from you, i love learning about runs like this.
wish you paced yourself better. had to stop at the start of dynablade still got me sub. cheers
31:30 I won't say a thing.
Wow this is such a good speedrun
love the content. any plans on making more videos about mario wonder?
I spent so many hours playing this casually. Loved this game
Got Kirby Super Star for my 4th birthday as the first game that was explicitly mine. It's still my favorite Kirby game, although I still need to conquer the original game's Arena some day.
Yeah speedrunners are great, but with Storster the real treat is watching her exposition and presentation in these videos get better over time.
new storster day is a good day
3:51 I played Kirby Super Star (ultra) on the DS as a child and i am lowkey shocked by wham bam's original SNES design lmao
heck yeah kirby
Thank you for such great videos! I LOVE learning about speed running history!
Also I'm transfem too!!!! I'm so happy to see a trans women in the speed running community! I always feel really happy when I see anyone trans in these communities
happy to hear such things
"We are now where the RNG manipulation comes into play."
*Final Boss Music Intensifies*
Mmmmmmmmmmm Super Metroid abs KSS make the snes the goat imo
Loved this vid, I have easily thousands of hours in KSS but I’m nowhere near as good or technically nuanced as the runner you showcased
Good stuff, keep it up
I used to play this game religiously
I love the original kirbys dreamland on GB, i have speedrunned it for fun, my PB is only about 16 minutes.
3:36 Although I started with the original (via Kirby's Dream Collection on Wii), I'm more used to Super Star Ultra now. I'm genuinely surprised that Spring Breeze isn't needed to unlock Milky Way Wishes on SNES. In the DS version, all that's unlocked by default is Spring Breeze and three touchscreen mini-games.
Doing some research, beating Green Greens (not even necessarily all of Spring Breeze) is apparently enough to unlock Gourmet Race, Dyna Blade, and Great Cave Offensive. But the same source also claims that unlocking Milky Way Wishes requires you to "Complete all prior sub-games", so you still have to at least clear Spring Breeze. Not sure if you can skip Gourmet Race on DS.
Point is, I thought the SNES version required you to clear Spring Breeze, Great Cave Offensive, and Revenge of Meta Knight to unlock Milky Way Wishes.
Yottas the GOAT hes the GOOOAAT
There is no such thing as too much Kirby.
I could have swore you could freely drop powers in this game. I could just be misremembering from Ultra, though. Was it added to the Wii version? I haven't played it on SNES in eons.
You can on the DS. But not on SNES. You only get to make a partner as your way to drop an ability.
@@windego999Aye, my memory's just crusty it seems
I thought there was an SRM or something in Dynablade that lets you beat Milky Way Wishes by warping to a glitched version of Marx... i can't remember, think I saw it in an A+Start video
IIRC, it should not be attempted on real hardware, and is likely banned.
What you're referring to is an old emulator bug. It's due to poor SA-1 emulation, so when the game loads entities under heavy strain it may load the incorrect ones, hence random Nova / Marx fights (the Nova/Marx entity would be loaded instead of a common enemy)
YOU SAID BEAM ATTACK!!!!!!!
See ya, Bonkers!
gg !
Can you do Crash 1 2 and 3
Cool video game skills
excellent and informative video, and your voice sounds so pretty!
@@DOC_951 *her voice.
her voice is very well measured and even when speaking, soft, and warm. her enunciation and pace have greatly improved since she began voice training, as well
I actually used to think it was a big accomplishment at the time, when I had got a WR in all 4 types of fighting games, street fighter soul caliber, wwe wrestling mma/ufc and boxing, but i don't think it was all that great, but fun doing the runs and nice to achieve, my own personal goals.
crazy how this can so enternaining even tho i have no good reason to give any shits
How come only 4 of the sub games are played?

Stop using AI to write your scripts and assume that the viewer has a basic knowledge of Kirby if they're clicking on this video
lol
That assumption would be wrong for a really large number of people. I didn't even know it was a platform game
shes back :) (its still awkward to say these pronouns with u but im getting used to)
Theres just no reason for that 2nd sentence 💀
Not rly a reason not to say it either is there?
Youre stupid lmao
I imagine you're young which explains your behavior but anything you feel the need to put in parathesis should be kept to yourself.
It adds nothing.
It's really not awkward. If somebody tells you they are a woman/man, the pronouns follow from that. If somebody is nonbinary or otherwise uses less typical pronouns, then it will be unique enough to solidify in your mind easily. If you find it awkward there is a part of you still considering her as "male" in some way or another. That is the part of you that you must examine and modify.
Telling people their existence is awkward for you is pretty bad form in general too. We don't need to hear that shit all the time.
Another good video sir, thank you
Storster is female! :)
