Super Castlevania IV Any% Speedrun -

[@oggaming7362]

Every 100 years Dracula resurrects to get his ass WOOOOOOPED in half an hour.

[@pogo12JDF]

While this century's Belmont hops, skips, and moonwalks effortlessly through miles of fiend-infested castle like it was a game of hopscotch.

[@Robert96902]

Have u seen the Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance Maxim speedrun? It was like it 30 seconds or less 😂

[@suborbitalprocess]

9:38 Now that's some core strength right there

This OST is just fabulous.

[@Celitegames]

Yes I love it too

waterfall my fav

[@Adrinukem]

Yes, very very good OST

[@toyvania]

At 27:20 you can see the town where Simon starts his journey located in an opening of the forest. Also, that forest would be the 2nd level and from that level, you can see Castle Dracula at some point. Besides the dark atmosphere and gothic inspiration, the developers of Dark Souls must have learned how to craft an intertwined world full of cohesive, believable geography by playing this game. Super Castlevania IV is full of these amazing storytelling details.

[@aktchungrabanio6467]

amazing

[@Koishi97]

I sat through this entire video and I couldn't keep my eyes off for one second. This was an amazing run and I'm sure there's improvement that can be done but nonetheless bravo!

[@skaladarrellgodeater1070]

When I was a kid, I late so many years in beat this masterpiece. You make it in 30 min. AWESOME!

2:50 My grandfather explaining to me how he went to school

[@jphiled6554]

Fantastic speedrun for one of my favorite games of all time. I didn’t realize the Japanese version had actual blood flowing in the torture room. Another example where SNES were censored at the time.

[@MrHartApart]

"Muahaha, hello Simon, prepare to meet your do- oh okay nevermind, bye!" Half the skellies in the game.

[@HyperKonzi]

one of the best snes games

[@zallard1]

What a beast

[@Soosph0id]

Ayyyy! Love your punch out runs.

[@99jean88]

The time you take to beat it was the time i take to figure out how to defeat the death

[@KeleuHerdley]

I swear, watching SCV4 speedruns are so satisfying

[@cherokeefit4248]

Indeed. Solid videos to watch at night.

[@kesuya]

25:00 love this song

[@CrabJock]

It's hard for me to pick a favorite, they're all so good. Best overall soundtrack, period.

[@TinnueLP]

what a run

[@ss-qn7ff]

Tinnue time to long play chrono trigger schatz :)

[@ss-qn7ff]

Tinnue bitte = )

[@gchowder]

That was badass! Thanks for running this game! :D

[@theimortal1974]

18:36 that thing always freaked me out down there. never once was down there to face it so i 'm not sure what it's point it.

[@tenenbaummark]

i had so much trouble on those last 3 bosses and you made it look so easy

[@williamrodriguez5820]

What a great soundtrack.

[@facasitojoestar3924]

You got it again, good work Joe.

[@ReR7474]

21:13 was just perfect, otherwise this run would be just obsolete.

[@davidcooper8371]

Absolutely incredible.

[@thiagocardoso5533]

This game is beyond epic, as your run! Amazing job, mate!

[@kingsun7530]

This run was as classic as the game brother!

[@AyyRalphy]

The Library will always be my favorite stage 📚 Least favorite was the Torture Room.

[@PC-yp5dl]

So I've been examining your run, specifically 6 and 9, trying to find the errors you mention, and I'm pretty sure I've spotted one definite mistake in 6 where you get hit by one of the axe throwing guys but instead of it being a damage boost, it's just damage, meaning it propelled you backward instead of forward. In 9, I couldn't really see any major mistakes other than minute time losses like a sixth of a second here, a fourth of a second there, stuff like that. Overall though nearly perfect. Anyway just thought I'd share. SCV4 is my favorite video game of all time and I've probably watched this run more than any other out of sheer awe at the skill. Congratulations.

[@JoeDamillioSR]

Thanks :) You are correct about the Stage 6 error, but this error also caused me to not take the damage boost at 15:18. Overall both time losses amount to 1.5 seconds. In Stage 9 at 22:04 I miss jumping off the stairs which lost almost 1 second. In the boss room of Stage 9, I miss jumping onto the stairs (where I grab the small health refill) which lost 1 second. Phase 1 of the boss fight lost about 40 frames due to not getting the 22nd hit on the bat on the swoop downward. Hope this clears it up.

[@PC-yp5dl]

@@JoeDamillioSR Yes, I see now. I'll have to watch it again to see if I can catch what you've explained. However, if not for these losses, I would say the run is virtually perfect. Unless there's some unknown glitch yet to be discovered, it doesn't seem possible for a better run. And that's amazing. I've watched many many speedruns and there's yet to be a single one that cannot be improved upon. But this run, seems to come dauntingly close. Congrats again.

[@cosmicsoul8042]

9:58 omfg lmao

[@theimortal1974]

16:50 damn that poor couple barely got to do the 2-step

[@xenxander]

What's the point of a score board that can rise up in the 100 million digit range when it's not even possible to break a million points in the game?

[@retro3188]

Most likely aesthetics. All the HUD elements seem to form a trapezoid pattern.

[@fzwrs]

you're a legend!

[@nickywhitmore4350]

This is a amazing speed run good job

[@cherokeefit4248]

Those falling blocks at the rock golom almost had ya. Good run

[@BowsettesFury]

Very nice speed run, fun to watch.

[@Mr.madmight266]

I honestly don't like this game as much as most people do, but i did want to know some speedrun tricks since this game feels way too long to me.

[@nickywhitmore4350]

The windmill sub weapon gets it done

[@linktwl7]

Best soundtrack bonus with stereo output

[@joshwilson7614]

Watching this 5 years later so I can try and optimize a run of one of my favorite games, and only 871 likes???? Criminal!

[@PC-yp5dl]

Damn Joe, some new kid got you beat by 4 seconds... 4 flippin seconds!! I would love to see have another go at it 😉

[@guillermoesmenjaud5511]

I cant even phatom trying to pull this off.... Perfect.

[@PC-yp5dl]

Wonderfully done my friend, sure competition for furious Paul!

[@semperfi215]

Some awesome skills showed to us...

[@DenOfVipers]

One of my favorite video games. Can't imagine just trrucking through it so joylessly.

[@serpico727]

jaFart KING JOE IS BACK ON HIS RIGHTFUL THRONE

[@JDDK28]

Congrats on cutting the 31:30 Joe! Amazing run! Had me sweating on 3-3 with the sword skeletons at the end. Clutched the Koranot fight, and the early orb. Had my doubts it was really you playing since 5 gave you no harpee trouble. ;) Your six with the phantom dancers approaching the boss was flawless. 7-1 axe boost! Your 8 was godly. You’re doing the pixel jump in 9-2 now. Scary. Your tweaks in A are unbelievable. Then your ascent in B blew me away! Great final four. Well done, my friend!

[@TheSammySuperShow]

What?

Ohhh nvm I understand now. They the levels

Incredible, amazing run.

[@xemuth1643]

i cant believe this is not a TAS

[@GalvatronRodimus]

Boss fights in speedruns are always hilarious.

[@dylanrupp8214]

I like the fact you dont pick up every item in this masterpiece.

[@tyroneepps3018]

Hi ! J.d. I have your new ! Channel I like this game. I will put this in my Library so Keep the games coming your new ! No.1 fan !

[@theimortal1974]

9:53 nice i never thought about doing that with the medusa heads. i've always hated fighting those things on that little platform

[@l0kstav970]

Really good

[@NOFBDYBS]

30:04, when the music drops. That was legit the first time.

[@garycooper8130]

must be a way to avoid the time add ons a the end of the levels......

[@DBZREMAKE01]

when you made the first level you made them all , it's a fuckin repeat all time

any plan to return to this game and pushing it further?

[@questionblock8949]

Is Jay_cees world record on youtube?

[@pogo12JDF]

I can't say for sure, but I don't think half of those machines serve any purpose in the functioning of the clock tower. Seems rather unnecessary.

[@marksaxon]

Best game soundtrack considering the tech at the time.

I thought level 8 was brutal enough casually XD

[@LazypunK07]

holy dhick the original Castlevania

[@alexmightdrop]

11:23 wow

[@ghostfart6271]

Are those glitches like the clip through the first wall etc. doable on an emulator?

[@ghostfart6271]

I'm trying on an Nintendo classic

[@CrabJock]

Yes. You're simply emulating the console. The game is the game (as long as you're not using some kinda hacked rom or something).

[@edinhofofao7303]

And the second quest? Ndvmp

Bet it took practice this game is not exactly easy got to learn how to used that whip in this one

[@Sonic_B00mer28]

I will never NOT be impressed by these

[@paulfurse4228]

First off best video game ever period,second off great to see a legit speed run unlike 95 per cent of speed runners who cheat with tool assist or PC mods great stuff well done 👍

[@bradfab_fx]

Who the heck moonwalks down a stairs?

[@RachelWhiteFang48326]

insane run... woow

[@kensecondary1999]

He can use the crosses better than the Christian church

[@mariocastillo813]

Speed runs should be done without taking any damage.

[@cherokeefit4248]

But sometimes it’s faster to take the hit and some hits set up another time saving trick. The bat trick on the final part of stage three is a huge time saving bonus.

[@rrth556]

Damn I thought I was good... at over an hour. Nope.

[@cherokeefit4248]

My friend wanted to speed run this game but I told him that no offence don’t even try until you watch some speed run videos Ahhaha

[@123TauruZ321]

Good play, but can't help but think there is some TAS'ing going on in this.

[@collinsjames7518]

It seems very TASsy. It's on speedrun.com as an official record though so I guess not.

[@Tyranogre]

Cross op plz nerf

[@ekremsait]

Man, Christianity is op.
