[@YOUARECOOL1993]

Yes

[@EnigmaticGentleman]

Its jsut amazing to see indie developers finally setting the 3D platformer train in motion again, though AHiT will likely always be the best.

[@ShockHat734]

Agreed

[@Thejackel79]

I used to run this game way back when 1.0 was the current patch. I love this game. This was a really nice nostalgia trip.

[@TetraBitGaming]

Nice!

[@1ceolation]

As someone who has over 1.5k hours spent playing the game and is 22nd in any% atm, tysm for giving the game the exposure it deserves, it was a lot of fun tuning into one of your streams once, and I'm glad one of the most slept on speedruns is finally getting the audience it deserves!

Its actually the boop animation that cancels any other animation Hat Kid is currently doing. Hence why none of the other things you can say with the emote wheel do anything

[@ultimateprogamer5843]

I'm very happy that you are talking about this game. It really is a great game and definitely deserve so much more love, support and attention then it gets. Fun Fact: Paper Mario TTYD is actually one of the big inspirations for this game as well as Sunshine, SM64, and Galaxy. Fun Fact 2: The Voice Actor of The Conductor is the same Voice Actor as The Announcer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (and the English VA of Joker from P5)

Theres another game similar to "A Hat in Time" Which was in development before A hat in time was released, it is called "Billie Bust up", a musical 3d platformer based off Disney Musicals, It is still in development now. The music composer is the MLP composer: Daniel Ingram, the only song that has been released officially is "I've had enough of you" Sung by Michael Kovach, known for voicing Angel Dust from Hazbin Hotel, and Serial Designation N from Murder Drones.

[@SuperMarioInRealLife]

Fuck no. Not that cringe worthy VA and furry shit

[@Mariofan665]

I actually recently completed the game again on PS4, so this was a nice surprise!

[@TetraBitGaming]

Nice!

[@justinecourtneysgavel89]

The trick you used to get on top of the well is one of my absolute favorites. You can do it on basically any surface you'd normally slide off of if you have the No Bonk Badge equipped by diving into the surface. Not only can you use it to do those fun dive-jumps, but you can slide against slanted surfaces almost infinitely if you dive into them at a angle. The best location to practice this is the dirt slope around the border of the subcon forest.

[@iscremintothevoid]

A Hat in Time is my favorite game of all time! I bought it for my brother a few years ago and it's without a doubt the best I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Although... I'm surprised that they don't utilize player 2 to get the key in "Down with the Mafia." I don't know if it's faster, but you could hypothetically just add coop and not need the bucket. (I played with my brother and we just skipped the bucket on our first play through on accident.)

[@mr_inconspicuous]

This has gotta be my favorite speed game, it's so nice to watch get broken

[@kotomishione]

haha i bought this game not so long ago, and i love it! my only complaint is that the loading times are abysmal and i can't complain about performance since i have a very bad laptop and that i can run it above 20 FPS is a miracle

[@tyranttracergaming]

Yeah the loading time is on your side

[@mrtriforce1007]

Same

[@chao_gooby]

You should get a steam deck for Christmas then! That's what im doin, since I also have a shit laptop! ...it also got sent away to get fixed since I broke it like 9 months ago and it hasn't came back....

[@stllr_]

as a long-time speedrunner myself, it makes me really happy to see people talking about how accessible it is. it's a hobby more people should pick up, as it's a lot of fun!!

[@quantm3649]

I've been wanting to but the problem for me is that I'm just not one for learning hard techniques

[@stllr_]

@@quantm3649 that's the best part about speedrunning, you can do it based on your own rules entirely! plus sometimes there are categories that don't even *allow* hard techniques in the first place, since other people aren't always into doing them either. give it a try with what you already know how to do, you might be surprised at how fun it is to try and beat your own times

[@EnigmaticGentleman]

Honestly one of my favorite games ever, though mods are what elevate it to a masterpiece in my opinion.

[@MaddyOverture]

So basically, the speedrunner were able to find the hourglasses and use it in real life

[@Square1789]

Thanks for doing more videos about this game I love this game and have a good day

Thanks! You too

I still remember when I held a couple of level WRs for Hat in Time. Can confirm, extremely fun game to speedrun! Excellent video! My best time on any% is 52 minutes, so sadly not as fast as the top runners lol

"We get to LARP as a UPS driver as our task is to deliver some mail around the forest by chucking to from our newly acquired scooter." I'm dead, this is too funny.

[@maxthompson7107]

I wonder if there's a Hat in Time mod that turns Hat Kid into Mario and the hourglasses she collects into stars. Better yet, one where Hat Kid is SpongeBob SquarePants, and the hourglasses are golden spatulas.

[@starkeeper_youtube]

Well I know there's mods that put Cappy and the 64 wing cap in the game and there's enough character model mods that I wouldn't be surprised if there was a mario one, so. Technically?

[@maxthompson7107]

@@starkeeper_youtube That answers the question of is it possible to beat a Hat in Time as Mario. I'm sure someone would turn Hat Kid into SpongeBob as well as turn the hourglasses she collects into power stars and golden spatulas. Wouldn't object to a life size Plankton over Moustache Girl or Luigi as player two either.

[@Abelix95]

The Hat in Time modding community is really awesome. There have been character model swaps for a really long time now, and yes, I can 100% confirm there are mods that enable you to play as Mario, Sonic, or other characters (some of these mods even change things like game physics, or give you alternate moves, it's pretty cool). But even more than the alternate skins or game modes, where I think the mods really shine are the different custom levels created in the game's official modding tools. Some of them are just few minute long blue rifts, people's first try at creating a level, while some others are literal masterpieces with custom assets and/or a new and original story (non-canonical to the main game, of course). Seriously, some of them look so good, you could easily mark them off as official. In case you have the game on PC and like to try out a few really, REALLY good mod levels, I'd recommend: - Gold Leaf Galaxy (Mario Galaxy level assets, free exploration, short and sweet) - ConductorWare (Wario-esque micro game collection) - Hat Kid Steals the Declaration of Independence (epic Golden Eye story with custom voice acting) - A Hat in Crime (Ace Attorney like gameplay re-created in Hat in Time) (these last 3 mentions were all made by a friend whom I befreinded through these mods, really awesome person) - The Breathing Sea (a GIGANTIC multi-chapter mod with lots of exploration and custom abilites to help you traverse the areas) - And, if you'd allow me a bit of a shameless self promotion, I tried partially re-creating the gameplay style of the Mario and Luigi RPG games (Superstar Saga, etc.), using Hat Kid and Bow Kid as your player characters. It's called Superstars in Time. ... sorry about all the rant, you could say this game is very, very special to me. And I do believe that the awesome mods/mod levels make up like 50% of the total experience A Hat in Time has to offer. If you actually managed to read everything I wrote and might consider giving these mods a try... go ahead, and thank you. ^-^

[@starkeeper_youtube]

@@Abelix95 TRUE it's amazing that Gears for Breakfast supports modding to the extent that they do, the phrase "official modding tools" isn't as common as it should be tbh
