[@kkalive1714]

I seriously enjoyed watching this, it was quite fun to watch the weird tech required and the just general self improvement, I'm also wondering though, is it possible to beat the remake of this game without gliding? I had heard that in the remake the charge jumps had the jump distance increased, making some jumps previously impossible well, possible and you were so close to making it to the dream weavers area, so I wouldn't mind at least seeing if it is possible to make it

[@gavtro2]

I'm going to present to you an alternative perspective. The QUESTION is 'Can you beat Spyro The Dragon without gliding;' not 'Is it a failure if you can't beat Spyro The Dragon without gliding'. The answer is no and that fulfills the criteria of the question. You didn't lose because you can't beat the game, the goal was the answer and you got the answer so you succeeded.

[@emeraldqueen1994]

Can you get more distance by changing into the jump instead of changing from the top of your jump?

[@FUELBandicoot]

Would love to see this in Spyro 2

[@NGPlusVideos]

You're in the right place then, stay tuned :)

[@jasonfrancis9262]

glideless is clearly dead but proving that minimum Glides is 1 Glide is still undeniably an achievment.

[@FiMvisibl3]

I think it's two glides, as you also need to glide out of the whirlwind right after the first glide. Still pretty good

I'm a fan of the GameChamp3000 approach to these: a "Mission Failed" counter, to turn it into a "minimum banned action" run. It still lets us see the whole game, and it implicitly creates a challenge for somebody else to beat that number.

[@blastortoise]

It's also more entertaining, I like longer videos and sometimes people end a challenge after 10 minutes and only 1/4 into said game.

[@iantaakalla8180]

I know that there is more to a challenge after a tutorial or gimmick battle proves an challenge run impossible, but I always feel the need to leave the video anyways. It feels like the video is a different beast entirely.

[@sonofmar]

I think the run died in dream weavers for the challenge, but I approve of the way you continued. I definitely wanted to know how many glides would be required at minimum to beat the game. Great video!

[@NGPlusVideos]

Thank you, you're right in my opinion, the run had to die. If only the balloonist weren't so far away 😖

[@or3213]

@@NGPlusVideos I think every "Zero X" challenge can be turned into "Minimum X" challenge, if absolutely necessary.

sonofmar is right, the run did die after we got into deam weavers,

[@TJPlaysPS]

I honestly think it's possible..... I will devote myself to making it possible

[@NGPlusVideos]

It's actually been proven possible since the video

[@KikiCatMeow]

Run definitely died in Dream Weavers but the fact that that’s the ONLY mandatory gliding spot and you can still beat the game without any loot, dragons or eggs from that homeworld or its levels is still very impressive

[@fujny]

It's not mandatory, I just cleared the jump

[@28AccountsRemoved]

You can clear the gap in at least 2 ways. He never used the roll function, and there is a sweet spot but good luck.

[@IroquoisPliskin86]

The whirlwinds I think were totally fair game. And it's still pretty impressive that you could get through only gliding once. Lol

[@calebpeyton4704]

It’s pretty ironic that the dream of beating Spyro without gliding dies in the dream weavers world. Aside from that, I’m extremely impressed with how resourceful you have to be in order to even get as close as you did without gliding, I’m definitely going to have to attempt this challenge myself along with the other two games and see if I can do it too.

[@Zanador]

Just want to say that after seeing your more recent videos and coming back here, I'm glad that you've started allowing glitches in these challenge runs. Seeing what's possible without them is neat, but the real fun of these kinds of videos IMO is using them as an exhibition of obscure glitches that often aren't even used in speedruns. There's a reason people love ymfah and all his glitch-heavy challenge runs.

[@NGPlusVideos]

I agree. I am recording Spyro 2 for the next video, and it's Glitches all the way!

[@Hell_With_Perks]

@@NGPlusVideos makes me wonder how spyro 1 would have been if you allowed proxies and stuff

[@hecklepod]

Glideless? No. Absolute minimum glides with a self imposed honour system? Yes, a great one at that. Well done! And considering how glide heavy this game is, one (1) mandatory glide is honestly outrageous

[@28AccountsRemoved]

You can jump the gap 3 ways on dream weavers

[@anon_y_mousse]

I could barely do some of those jumps with gliding, and to see someone do them without is just awesome.

[@LeafRazorStorm]

I love the creative freedom Spyro 1 gives challenges like this, since you don't actually have to "finish" any level except the last three (and yes, I count the bosses as levels.) Spyro 2 and 3 are a lot more restrictive in that regard, as you need to reach the end of every non-flying level in every world but the last. I'm sure they'll give you a much harder time.

[@28AccountsRemoved]

Ripto and Sorceress make you fly. One might argue flying and gliding are not the same, because they're not. If the rule is no wings, only spyro 1 can be beaten without gliding

[@waylander9265]

I’d be curious if this is possible in the reignited trilogy. For those who don’t know the jumping while charging is different in the remake. In the original games the max jump height while charging is reduced, where in the remake one can get the max jump height while charging. Worth considering

[@KingHarambe_RIP]

I’d like to see this too. The only thing you’d need to prove is if that Dream Weavers jump is possible. The rest of run is the same or easier. An interesting subgoal there might be to see if it’s possible while banning whirlwinds again. Probably not though.

[@skilletborne]

@@KingHarambe_RIP Reignited does have more complicated geometry though, and since it's remade some of the distances and heights are likely to be a little different. I think while some things will be easier to pull off, far more will be straight up impossible

[@MadaxeMunkeee]

Re: needing to glide in the Dream Weavers home world You could rephrase the run as ‘minimum glides’ instead of ‘no glides’. Otherwise I think it’s fine, you did a great job with this one! Also I think your compromise with the whirlpools was totally fair. It fine so long as you charge to exit.

[@NGPlusVideos]

I did think about that, but I also liked the idea that I couldn't visit any worlds in Dream Weavers or collect any gems there either. That helped make it more difficult to get to the next home world. Otherwise I'd have collected more than enough gems. Thanks again 😁

[@Hummeldon]

Nice video! As a long time speedrunner of this game, I've found myself doing little challenges like this in between PB attempts. My most complicated one was attempting to go from the start of a level to the end of level vortex without using the D-Pad or analog stick to move spyro. There is a small handful of levels I figured out with the help of some other runners (the most rewarding being Cliff Town) but unsurprisingly most levels weren't possible.

[@aldeezy1]

Look at this dude, look at this "speedrunner" or whatever

[@politenonparticipant4859]

I'd say the challenge was a success; Dreamweavers is a dream world, so you can just say all that happened in it was a dream.

[@anonymously_yours]

as I'm sure you know, the algorithm's picked up your channel (I got recommended your dark souls run) but these kinds of channels are my absolute favorite, stuff like ymfah, challenger andy and sample. This is the first Spyro challenge I've seen though and I loved this game as a kid. you've earned another sub.

Hey thanks a lot for that, I think I finally found my niche and I'm enjoying the ride. We're only just getting started, but i have faith that the views will grow 😄

[@jaska8203]

I mean... you proved that you can beat the game with one single glide, not too shabby if you ask me!

[@kolbymiller3440]

Just found this and this was so cool Though I do believe the run died in dream weavers, the fact that you beat the run with only having to use gliding once AND you didn't even do the world where you had to glide on (basically skipping it as if the balloonist took you straight to gnasty gnorc) is super impressive! Considering the game expects you to glide a lot getting it down to only 1 is incredible. Though it makes me wonder, just how many glides would it take to... say... 120% the game?

[@Godviahh]

i think the dream-weaver compromise is 100% fair.

[@inc0mingr0flc0pter]

The challenge died, but the run lived. Thanks for the dedication to seeing it through. It was fantastic.

[@shanoc5902]

While the challenge was failed in Dream Weavers, I do really appreciate the compromise you gave as it really stuck to the spirit of things. I thought it was just going to be ignoring that one glide and go for a minimalist run, which is still something I appreciate more than just the video ending as it's less about seeing you never doing a thing and more about how you can overcome the challenges the game throws at you. Perfection is great to strive for, and the videos that accomplish it are *really* good, but I think people are here typically for an enjoyable video that gives a satisfying conclusion more than anything else.

[@rubensanchezgil722]

Re: Dream Weavers I know it is technically a glitch, but you could try to use the 3 creatures at the beginning of the level to get a proxy jump that gives you enough height to charge over the platforms. Just theorycrafting and I'm not sure how would this fit into the rules, but if it works it could open up the possibility of doing a true no-glide completion.

[@rmzing]

If I'm not mistaken, a proxy is considered a glitch. It would make it so much easier to beat the game glideless, though; you could even consider the highest possible completion (without the flight levels)

[@28AccountsRemoved]

Proxy isn't a glitch. It's designed in the game, make it an exploit if you will. That's now 3 ways I have no glide beat dead weavers. The run died because he didn't use it, he didn't find the sweet spot, nor did he try "rolling" off the edge and jumping. Hard to explain how to do it. I used to have a channel. They keep banning me though.

[@sevret313]

The fact that you had to make a compromise just make the challenge more interesting. So while the challenge failed, the run succeeded.

[@melissasowell2413]

"weird little blue thief men" the best description of those pesky thieves 🤣😂

[@salbabi]

At the Cliff Town gem spot where you almost didn't get to, I was so pumped to see you make it there AND get enough gems to progress further, I literally just joyously punched my knees over and over while yelling "yes, yes, yes!". It also made me like and subscribe immediately. So I guess it's fair to say I somewhat enjoyed this video, and would be reasonably elated to see the Spyro 2 equivalent.

[@salbabi]

Oh, and about the Dream Weavers glide: It does kill the run in theory (imo), but your workaround was awesome because it would have been such a shame to not see just how many glides are in fact necessary. And therefore the challenge was completed - with an asterisk (imo). So thank you for this!

Wow, I don't know what to say. Thank you very much, I'm glad you like them. Video number 6 is a doozy, it's taking far longer than most (except maybe the Rayman video, that took months). I'm glad I navigated away from Let's Plays, but doing those really helped me learn editing, and the Live Streams over on Twitch have helped with the charisma. I'm still improving things as we go so hopefully everything will only get better! :D

[@litigioussociety4249]

The fact that you were able to get the treasure in the back of Cliff Town was the best part of this run. The first time I played the game back in '98 or whatever, that was the last treasure in the game I found before Gnasty's Loot. I didn't use any type of guide, and I never used the Sparx cheat in the later games to find the treasure, but the other two games had much less hidden treasure.

[@gravekpr]

I just wanted to say that I appreciate your effort with all those great videos on your channel! You hit me with nostalgia with Spyro and Rayman. Keep up good work!

[@niemand7811]

Except that one necessary glide, your effort to get anything done past the 50% completion is outstanding. Finally even beating the boss, getting some interesting insides as you figured out some interesting jump opportunities nobody else would have considered before.

[@shaunyeo3349]

Ludicrous dedication my friend, well done!

[@MrChristianDT]

Don't know if it's possible, as I've never seen it in the Dreamweavers homework, but you might be able to do a hitbox exploit to launch yourself across those chasms. That's where you jump at an enemy just as they try to attack you. Basically, Spyro's hitbox is spherical & enemy hitboxes change shape when they attack & when the two collide at the wrong time, the game's physics completely freaks out. Even still, I don't know for sure I'd that would get you across the chasms.

[@C-Geezy33]

I’ll approve this run. Not collecting anything on the way to the balloonist made you push the game to get those last 53 gems.

[@gondothedragon3110]

I found your channel in my recommended list, and as a new viewer I love your dedication to these challenges. Maybe someday you can try beating Spyro 2 and 3 without gliding, it'll be interesting to see if that's even possible.

[@DarkMagicianGirl0]

This one was super fun I personally think with the restriction implemented while it doesn't eliminate the glide it reintroduced a challenge. Honestly I am kind of glad the glide happened because it made the run even more ridiculously difficult (in a fun way of course) 😁 I love your videos keep ém coming lol

[@Whyalooknatme333]

I think "No gliding while in "Control" of Spyro" would have been a good way of saying it. It would clear the level transitions "question" as well as the use of whirlwinds. As for the Dream Weavers glide requirement it would be interesting to see what the Speedrunning community has to say. Someone might have an interesting insight about getting around it. Great job on this, its one of my first and favorite games of all time! :)

[@Cracks094]

Incredibly entertaining and interesting video - and a really great compromise to just skip the entire world where you had to glide. I think this was the optimal solution. The only thing i had loved to see would have been just how far you can go in the levels you skipped without gliding, even tho the challenge was technically dead at this point, it'd have been interesting to know what could have been. Now excuse me while i binge watch all the other challenge videos from your channel!

[@CrimsonLightning1]

17:05. tbh sometimes the balloonist on eachworld sometimes recommends a level so if patient enough could get it to recommend a dream weaver level you could do without gliding. so theoretically you can beat spyro 1 without gliding just by getting jaques as the recommended level

[@DrRank]

Can they recommend levels outside of their own world? Because if Marco only talks about Artisan levels, it'll be a moot point.

[@CrimsonLightning1]

@@DrRank I think so. I'm not 100% on that Im aware of the whole recommended level but never intentionally encountered it outside of accidental interaction with the baloonist

OK I'm back with more intel. Recommendations can only come from Tuco (Magic Crafters balloonist), and he can only recommend a level that has an Egg you haven't found. Eggs don't even appear after Magic Crafters, so this strategy is pointless.

This is awesome! I think its amazing that the game only requires you to glide once to technically beat it! I actually tried to do a minimalist run where Spyro cant charge, flame or glide/fly (and no glitches) and I got 23 dragons and 509 gems (some were acquired by tricking certain enemies into killing each other) before I hit a dead end due to the balloonist requiring 1,200 gems to enter Magic Crafters. Such is life!

I saw a series quite a few years ago with the same conceit, and thought I remembered the challenge being completed there. I tracked it down, and it turns out that by jumping during the deceleration from a charge, you can get a bit more distance and actually make those "impossible" jumps in the Dream Weavers home world- and from there, there's no more issues. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aofVm2yuptarjNE

Ah yes, I have actually seen this before, but I wanted to avoid it as (and I sorta mentioned this in my rules) I wanted to avoid pressing X in mid-air entirely, as this trick seemed like a by-product of gliding.

Crazy thing is, it has actually been done without gliding now. So it seems way more than ever is now possible without gliding!

It's completely possible to do the dream Weavers jump. If you press X a second time while holding the charge button Spyro will do a little twitch that gives him just enough airtime to make it.
