[@Kastagaar]

And it's to the Millionaire music? Awesome.

[@jivjov]

@@Kastagaar I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out where I knew the music from...if only I had scrolled down into the comments :|

@@jivjov 47:13 "It's also called the Millionaire Challenge." once I heard that word I was able to place it. :P

Millionaire music? Can someone tell me the title?

"This is one of the hardest parts of the game.... and Dode just nailed it"

[@Eiji475]

Misses shell jump in the switch palace but then does shell summit first try. Ok Dode Ok.

[@WereDictionary]

its a steep learning curve

[@thatonecrazykobold1729]

Look mate, sometimes a shell jump gives you shit, sometimes it doesnt lol

[@darkmagician1184]

My god that 1st try shell summit.

[@PokeWeekly]

All of these levels look like they have a really satisfying rhythm to them.

[@AA-dd3we]

That's fitting - isn't Juz a musician?

[@walnutdbd5724]

that shell jumping is DISGUSTING. So impressive

[@Penningtontj]

"Dode makes it look easy" Holy shit I wouldn't want to imagine how nightmarish something would have to be to make it "look hard".

[@Arisendead]

Well watch the smw directory on twitch and you can see the best struggle and mo longer imagine haha

[@osumariokartman]

Great run, Dode. And awesome commentary by the couch, Juz, Tofu, and Arisen. Definitely one of the highlights of SGDQ2019

[@MushmouthTB]

This the most stylish looking rom hack I've ever seen and I love it!

[@SuperstarSnivkins]

still one of my favorite gdq runs ever. shoutouts to the kaizo community for creating something so fun to watch

[@ACherimoya]

Really incredible play. Great run, great commentary, great hack!

[@ErinfromDenver]

This was super-enjoyable to watch. The couch added so much entertainment. Great chemistry and great energy all around!

[@dannyfromneworleans2791]

I guess this is the TAS-guy I've heard so much about :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[@cesargarcia-bw7iw]

Riding that boomerang the way he does twice, that's a high level of gaming expertise.

[@sk_555]

I love all the SMW romhack runs this year, commentary + runs are insane!!

[@Turkeybatr]

This was a joy to watch. Props to everyone involved

[@10dagoo]

Dode is one of the best runners. Congrats.

[@ollieduracell]

Dode has always been an absolute monster. Ridiculous end too

[@ArtUniverse]

Love it, one of the most entertaining GDQ runs I've watched.

[@tubeincompetence]

Indeed. I love the music.

[@th18167]

@@tubeincompetence It's mostly Undertale remixes

[@carboncybr]

These are so satisfying to watch, knowing that so few people can even complete this game at any time.

[@sshuck]

This run is pure joy.

[@players7985]

[@spacejunk9904]

I spedran Invictus in roughly 240 hours! Beat that!

[@mjdxp5688]

It's absolutely amazing watching this game be played, it makes me want to start playing kaizo myself!

[@Novous]

OH SNAP. 18:40. Crusader No Remorse main menu theme. WOW.

[@dewhashish]

At 39:00 it's not flossing, it's the Mario dance! Swing your arms from side to side, come on everyone, do the mario!

[@silentdebugger]

The soundtrack to this hack is super legit. I want it

[@doubleicecream1302]

Alright Sounds Good!

[@Wrizzla]

A breathing Tas-Bot. Damn impressive! ❤️

[@j644]

If this is your first GDQ viewing, please watch from 1:16-48:11. It's a bit of time to ask for, but if you watch it, you'll understand why this is a thing. Not all runs are equal, but this is one of the best I've ever seen, from the run itself to the couch comments to the audience... You can feel the community in this run. It's a good time. Only wish I could have seen it live.

[@SuperstarSnivkins]

19:47 Ruins from Undertale.

[@DontMockMySmock]

That shell jump challenge after the run. . . FUCKIGN LEGEND

[@Momo_Mori]

The song in Sewer Smashin' that they commented on is from Jazz Jackrabbit. Game had an awesome soundtrack.

[@Optimator7]

So good

[@PoisonSpecs]

You know it's a true kaizo hack when they put a Touhou song in.

[@bogdandukic2625]

A normal mortal: Yeah, I beat this this hack in 126 hours and 41 min. So proud of myself. Dode: Hold my shell. Beat it in 42 min and swag it up with various speed strats and frame perfect tricks. And first shot the shell summit. Inhuman. Cheers to the whole community.

[@trafguy]

built to fall is one of the most fun kaizo levels ive ever played

[@CalculatorGuides]

i dont know but invictus being speedruned has a thick irony since invictus meant unconquered

[@myst6673]

You just have to love it when the audience reacted the second Megalovania started playing at Absolute Power.

[@z2023__]

7:18 Hell yeah! I love Jewel Mans theme!

[@SirMalorak]

11:10 Castlevania Adventure - Battle of the Holy. Dayum, someone remembers this game!?

[@VonFirflirch]

I don't, but I love its music ;)

[@Jace292]

I see Dode's a man of culture as well

[@RhythmJigoku]

33:54 | Oh my God I love the Ghost Trick music!!!! 😊

[@SpegD]

"No Hidden Blocks." Fucking finally! A mario rom hack without that bullshit!

Plumbers nightmare backed with that great touhou music

[@MargulanTRZ]

God dode

[@okguy167]

I'd love to see a music track list for this game. Because some real good choices were made.

[@VegitoBlackk]

The maptheme is from waterworld on snes. The map screen theme

[@eliasE989]

That level at 37:54 looks pretty sweet

[@kai_darthblood4361]

Megalovania.

[@b.clarenc9517]

Best cave music in the Final Fantasy series, in my opinion. Yes. Better than FF6's. Fight me.

[@chrisoneal2718]

30:40... "I decided to do VVVV...V....V?" "One more V." Haha!

[@bengoodwin2141]

I want that megalovania cover used in one of the last levels, but I can’t find that specific one anywhere. And the koopa’s road one

[@takeitezz858]

just noticed the game has touhou music WOW edit: just checked the soundtrack, and it was just there for one level but still COOOOOOOOOOOL

[@SimonsChannel]

33:55 Whoever ported that MASTERPIECE from the MAGNIFICENT Ghost Trick soundtrack, you're a fucking LEGEND

[@mk7fighters]

the tune from the level from 9.30 is actually from a old game called jazzjackrabbit

[@octo6472]

19:44 BRO THIS MARIO REMIX OF TORIEL'S THEME FROM UNDERTALE IS 🔥

[@DDRKhat]

It's not Toriel's Theme. It's the underground theme. But yes it certainly is amazing!

[@sfisher923]

37:54 has MeGaLoVania

[@sonpsychopat3180]

33:55 for ghost trick music

[@Lugmillord]

Plumber's Nightmare had Remilia's theme, didn't it? And the ghost house has ruins from Undertale, neat.

[@ShadowLouWolf]

Amazing run and funny commentary. Apologies for my ignorance, but why is the expression "OY" related to Kaizo blocks?

[@UghRochester]

Juzcook, the creator of this hack and the person on right sitting on couch, is an Aussie. Juz stated on SMWCentral this hack has no kaizo blocks in it. On the very last level there's one kaizo and block Dode revealed it during the run.

[@MaximeCHEVASSON]

Jazz Jackrabit music

[@thechenzy9394]

13:20 That's Septette For A Dead Princess! From Touhou 6

[@FourthDerivative]

33:54 Ghost Trick music! Seriously underrated game

[@GuitarHeroRocks99]

No kaizo blocks in the game? Lies!

[@StopChangingUsernamesYouTube]

Oh, must've been a misprint. It should say, "No, kaizo blocks!"

[@wildfluffyappeared]

There aren't Kaizo block*s*, but there is *a* Kaizo block :p

[@juzcook]

Sour Lyme I would never!

[@Lawler50431]

"We said 'No Kaizo BLOCKS'. We're allowed one."

[@zanertheslayer2407]

34:07 I guess you can call it a, “Mekamek”.

[@tidalboxer]

Ok. So every level is everyone’s favorite level. That’s what I’m learning from watching Mario hacks. They’re all favorite.

[@QactisX]

Nothin wrong with that
