Just to clarify: my PB is 1:15:43 and my sum of best is around 1:10 , so I'm fairly confident it's impossible to beat this in under an hour. But nonetheless, thank you so much Ross! When I was first watching your building streams in 2020, I would never have imagined this. The speedrun and your channel have come so far and I'm just so happy all the hard work and truly insane number of hours that made this happen have culminated into this. So awesome!

[@JasonAndroid]

Eyyy! The man himself, Congratulations you're goated keep up the speedruns you did fantastic

[@Robotic_Boi]

nice

You're speedrun is sick

Will!! I saw that stream that Ross raided you on, so cool to see this vid man, youre doing great things!

[@hudwastaken]

Dude you're amazing

[@RubberRoss]

Interesting fact that didn't make the video: Will was so great at playing my levels that when I had to make a trailer for the worlds release.. I asked him to play through it all and record it. So the old trailer gameplay footage? All him! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJTPh3pnispgbs0&ab_channel=RubberRoss

[@patrickfarrell7963]

You should talk with this guy and see if you can both have it submitted to games done quick. I don't know your opinion about games done quick but it would make for a good segment.

[@Law01YT]

woah nice!

[@sdsign4229]

Ross, you REALLY gotta check out Mario Maker 2 troll levels! I feel like you’d be a great MM2 troll level maker. Some names are CarlSagan42, Stevo, Shadekitty, Tutajjk, and Shieldser. Most troll levels are garbage, but the troll community has evolved them to an art!

[@DeusArtifex]

Hey Ross, bit off-topic, but I wanted to tell ya, that discord link pinned to your channel is invalid. Still happy to join the community through this videos description :D

Ross experiencing what game developers feel when someone does any% speedrun in their game it took 5 years to make

[@veightsuper4053]

Yeah, I’ve always been curious about how developers would react to speed runners. This is fun!

[@onlysmiles4949]

@@veightsuper4053 IGN has a few videos like this, and it's really fun to see some of the reactions

[@Bobbias]

​@@veightsuper4053ign has a series of videos where they get game developers to react to speedruns of their game. It's one of the few legitimately great things ign has produced.

[@brandonfrancey5592]

Dev - "Yeah, I spent a lot of my time creating the crystal rivers zone. I focused on a lot of the details knowing that the players were going to be spending a lot of time there earning required items." Speed runners - "So if you stand on this pixel, you can jump off an invisible platform completely bypassing the crystal rivers and of course we don't need any of the items in that zone anyway."

[@gljames24]

​@@veightsuper4053There is a series on youtube like that, but I forget who made it.

[@patu8010]

This is amazing! What a love letter to Ross's world to spend years mastering it.

[@TeamSoraPresents]

Ah, yes. I remember this world. I still have the Note on my phone and the Excel spreadsheet from when the Grumps played it. By my officially-unofficial count: Arin died 2108 times over 38 episodes, averaging 55.47 deaths an episode (the most was 100 in ep. 26), and his biggest roadblock (I believe you helped him beat it) was W8-4 "Rubber Rush", which took 6 eps and 226 tries. W1-2 "Lead the Lads" was the only level without a single death.

[@the_enderslayer]

My count was 2155, whenever they did editing magic or playing off-camera I tried to extrapolate how many times Arin died from the life count.

[@purplesam2609]

Seeing Ross' shock at someone finding Speedrun tricks in his world is so good

[@VarmintLP]

2:00 That's why speedrunners are so dedicated and play each level more than once and find interesting things and "glitches" to shave off a few seconds. That key thing is probably just one out of many :D

[@niklasschmidt3610]

To spoil the entire video: "WHAT?!?" Love it. Speedruners truely are build different. Their brain is thinking on another plane of existance. Nice video.

[@Mello-Naper]

It’s so funny seeing you react to every trick you didn’t know about. Great editing too. Always a blast seeing Mario maker videos

[@RubberRoss]

Yeah it's honestly shocking to see stuff I never even thought of. Its even more impressive because I made all these live and not one person in my chat even thought of this stuff either. Also my editor Noah said this was fun to edit because it made him very nostalgic for the start of the channel :)

ross calling it being defeated, I call it making a world with interesting speedrun strats

[@EsmeraldaTGG]

I know right? Stuff like this is why I LOVE Speedruns! They break stuff in ways the developers/makers never even _thought_ about!

[@revolug]

unlimitedwill is also an established member of the kaizo community, fun fact. he's real good at mario maker also, that tech at 16:59 is called a ground pound cancel, or gpc. you just press down to groundpound and then hold up to cancel it as soon as possible (letting him walljump there), and it lets you stop your horizontal momentum and stall in the air momentarily

[@Hammermongo]

I love how passionate ross is about a speedrunner breaking his levels and even cheers him on XD He is an artist that just can't help being smitten by other people's creativity EDIT: I feel you on the breakout level, my dad had that too and we sometimes tried to compete with each other XD EDIT EDIT: I forgot about Ross deepthroating his mic XD

[@ianrager]

You all know what this means, right? Ross will do his best to have the last laugh in Mario Maker 3.

[@outbreakperfected5704]

He will break the engine if necessary

If there is a Mario Maker 3 I will go back to streaming full time to make another world.

I love every Rubber Ross World Video on this channel, no joke. Especially that Matpat and Ross accidental conversation lol.

[@lucaseichler3140]

I just love how flabbergasted ross is at the tenacity of this speedrunner.

[@questionabletoast9346]

This really brings me back to playing super Mario world with my sister and yelling, "drop yoshi and bob!" and my dad coming in and wondering what the hell was going on

[@Xylophytae]

This is exactly like those "developers watching speedrund" videos and i love it

[@diarrhea_moment]

This man is a legend. The fact that he studied all these levels and found tricks for them himself is extraordinary.

[@cheeto1327]

I will never forget Ross just guzzling the mic. Truly one of the moments of all time

[@rebasack21]

My favorite moment from all the playthroughs was when the Gamegrumps were on the deku tree level and Arin ended up calling Ross to demand to know how to do something, and learned the Link powerup has a bow.

[@cosmicwafflesTF2]

Alternative title: Ross Screams "WHAT!?!" for 38 Minutes and 11 Seconds

now Ross knows how game devs feel about speedrunners breaking there games in ways they never intended to work in the first place XD this is freaking incredible to watch!

[@jadesnails]

Ross of the Rubber variety always bounces back.

[@jaxsomon3333]

I always wondered what a super rubbeross world speed run would look like! And Will absolutely did NOT disappoint!

Will RubberRoss make even harder levels just to see if that guy will do his "magic" and finish them insanely fast?

Noah, that "ice so good" bit was subtle... but holy crap I almost died laughing at it. A+ editing as always.

[@DragonOfDrakness1992]

These reaction videos are great (also with the MatPat and GameGrumps reactions), it gives a good insight into how any developer probably feels when someone else plays/breaks the game they thought was so safe :D

[@abaddonarts1129]

I love all the flashbacks to the original streams of making this world, they're a great nostalgia bust from ages ago. I remember sitting up all night in Freshman year of college a few times along with the streams to see them completed. What an era of content

Watching the dynamic between you making these and MatPat playing them on his stream was iconic. What a nostalgic time.

[@Gethin469]

i'm about three minutes in and i can already tell this is one of my favorite videos from you. i love people reacting to rubber ross world's insane difficulty, and i love speedruns, but it's something else entirely to watch you, the creator, blind react to all these speedrun strats that cut your level down to size. the "developers watch speedruns of their own games" genre of videos never fail to fill me with complete joy.

[@RosileeJe]

How cool! Love to see that people are still playing your mario world and even speedrunning it. Watching the videos of you making it was lowkey one of the things that kept me sane in 2020 lol

[@HeyHazeArt]

This was great to see! Love the Mario Maker stuff, maybe I'll finally get it soon and try SRRW. Which I just realized kinda spells "Sorrow".... neat.

[@ranshi6417]

This was so cool to watch. It must feel great to be a designer and see what you've made get broken and put together in such a beautiful way. As someone who watched every video of this world being built as they came out, it's great to see it still get recognition to this day. I remember when Covid started, I was eating at home way more often than ever, and these building streams were basically where my tradition of eating while watching a video comes from. To this day I'm grateful to the consistent entertainment they gave me and even if MM2 isn't "relevant" right now, I'll never not be happy to see more in the future.

[@mirageowl]

seeing this is amazing! what a throw back I loved catching the streams of the creation of these levels when I could, seeing them being played still is incredible

[@BullFrof]

I can't wait to see you on the couch when he does this at GDQ

[@cozmoz5108]

I love how this video is kind of a trip down memory lane for Ross, rmeembering what you were doing making the level, replaying clips, forgetting things he even put in the levels, its a really cool video

[@Shift18]

Well shit I guess it's time to make an even harder one

[@Panda_SMM]

Dude I love will, he has beaten the vast majority of levels over the past few years when I submit them to his streams, he's such a good dude, and great player.

[@griffonsarcade]

I remember being charmed by the breakout level when I watched the Grumps play, and hearing you explain it in this video was really cool. I appreciate insights from game devs that reveal personal choices like that

[@TheyLoveThemLLC]

Damn man this was a wild emotional trip for me. I hadn't forgotten about SRRW by any means but it took you reacting to this video and seeing your old moments from you beating it for me to remember that like, fuck, your content got me through 2020. That's so wild. Like now it's just commonplace that you're in my feed and I watch your stuff, but remembering why? I love that. I remember when you were making it you were thinking of eventually making your own game someday and streaming that process -- If you ever get around to that I'd really love to watch it!

[@bearpawdgamr2785]

Seeing you so excited that someone beat your world in fantastical ways is pure serotonin! I'm not sure what has more power. your need to make people suffer or your joy!

as someone who watched you put together all of these levels live, its crazy how much nostalgia i can get from only a few years ago. but i can clearly remember eating pizza while watching you struggle to figure out how to make Pyramid of Patience work smoothly, and laughing my ass off at how many painful hours it took to upload Rubber Rush and Take a Bow, Sir. huge shoutouts to will tho, the dedication to this monstrosity of a Super World is INSANE

Watching speedrunners completely break your game in ways you never thought possible is one of my favorite things as a game dev. The WTFery still astounds me, every time.

[@nickfarace9339]

Damn. When Ross put out his world I loved it so much I had told myself I would learn to speedrun it. I thought it would be a good way to honor his hard work. But then I realized, I am very good at SMM2, but I am no speedrunner. Also, time. So its awesome to me someone else did this. EDIT: Oh my GOD like 3 minutes in and this guy is killing it. Ross, you are so lucky to be able to see someone "break" your own game for a speedrun. That is so friggin awesome.

[@CraftyScotty99]

Something to note about the speedrun in better detail of things I know: 0. Universally, grabbing the lowest part of the flag shaves off a second or so from sliding down the flag pole (I guess) 1. If you lock the ending castle with a door, Mario won’t go through without a key and Mario will also sit when you put him on a path that makes it impossible to leave it will take several seconds before the level finally counts as completed. And for speedrunners using their own timers instead of the course timer those several seconds can be costly. 2. Yoshi (I have no idea why Ross put him on the course) is one block tall hit box-wise when running around and thus could fit through that gap made for the pokeys. 3. Using the SMW and NSMBU styles allows for spin jumping which allows him to spin jump on those spike balls and it gets used to avoid the dangerous obstacles below. 4. NSMBU also allows ground pounds which makes the seesaws fling enemies into the air and into the lava. 5. You can grab the shell at any point as SMB2 Mario, so you don’t have to ride it the whole way through. 6. NSMBU ground pounds can also be canceled and he had the perfect timing as the red wall appeared and then wall jumped frames before they disappeared. 7. Mobility is much slower in the shell, so he just carried it the whole way. 8. If the bosses are big but the things on their heads aren't, they could be stomped on the side causing the things to fall on them, and the bullet bill launcher instantly crushes them. 9. The spike ball could hit Mario if he’s over the spring but not if he’s small and crouching because his hit box gets reduced to half a block. 10. NSMBU Yoshi could flutter jump and fly across gaps left by the level creators. If there's anything I missed or if I screwed something up, let me know in the replies.

[@xazz]

The 3 minutes "WHAT!!??" and Ross getting out of his chair was amazing
