Beating Super Mario Bros. as SLOWLY as Possible??

While this might sound like a really stupid and boring concept, I promise it's really interesting! With a couple restrictions, certain games can get very interesting when you try and do the longest playthrough possible. Turns speedrunning on its head and unlocks a whole new world of routing and puzzle solving- one of the best things about speedrunning! Slowrunning is the new hotness!

[@literallylegendary6594]

There is a huge possible improvement. If you exploit the game's mechanics to get to the very right of the screen (backwards jumps, etc.) and touch the flagpole, Mario will teleport to the left side of the screen. If Mario then falls in a pit, the game will take an extraordinarily wrong time to transition to the next level. When it does, the life counter will not change, so it doesn't count as dying. That is my big brain play here.

[@SeanCong]

HappyLee told me the exact same thing. This idea works for 5-2 and 6-1, but will cause an infinite loop (unable to beat the level) in 6-3.

The slowest way to beat the game is actually to have someone do this exact run, but on a spaceship traveling near the speed of light, so the total time taken is stretched out over a much longer time relative to an outside observer on earth due to time dilation.

Wouldn't their time be the same and really what they observe kosmic or us viewing the spaceship just be slower.

Holy cow. 8-4 looks like it would be absolutely terrifying if there was serious competition for this category. The pipe-wrapping basically means you have to wager up-front how fast you can beat the rest of the level, and all at the end of nearly an hour and a half of deathless play. At least in regular speedruns, finishing 8-4 a few frames slow won't always kill the run.

[@DanielLCarrier]

I don't think that would be a problem (unless you're really unlucky with how the timing works out). If you have the maximum possible number of loops, there'd still probably be plenty of safe time. And doing one slower would likely make winning impossible if there's serious competition, so there's no uncetainty involved.

I find it fascinating that this is one of the few games that can actually have a slowest "speedrun." Unlike other games, SMB has no pit stops, the timer is constantly ticking away. In other games, you could just stand around doing nothing for as long as you please, potentially giving the game no time limit. The SMB slowrun can definitely be optimized further. My guess is that a fire flower on all hammer Bowser castles could lag the game even further. Although I barely know this game.

[@pizzawonderer5024]

SMB basically says if you suck and take a long time thats okay, but if you absolutely suck then the game prompts you to go faster

[@Pedro_eqw]

Can't you just enter and exit a pipe infinitely?

[@fi4re]

Pedro no. Pipes tend to be shortcuts that move you forwards in the level, and SMB doesn’t allow backtracking

[@fllthdcrb]

Pretty sure this sort of thing applies to almost any game with time limits, and there are plenty from the '80s and '90s.

There was a water slide that emptied out into the deep end, and I initially had fun competing with my friends to go down the slide in the fastest time possible. Eventually, that got boring, so we tried to go as slow as possible instead as a new challenge. By creating friction against the slide walls and sitting in certain positions, each of us took so much time that the nearby lifeguard almost banned us from the slide entirely. Good times.

Long about before anyone old me "Speedruns" existed and I knew what they were, I would play games with a few goals in mind about how I thought a perfect player would play. These never included speed and I don't really find that interesting, but otherwise speedrunning lined up with how I played games. It's funny seeing this because "opposite speed" is so close to normal speedrunning, but still so far outside the box compared with every other run. Yet in reality speed is a totally arbitrary and generally one of countless others. For example you could make a hightrun of mario where your average hight across the coarse of the game is your score. What levels do you have to get to and avoid? What tricks work well? Is it fun to watch? How about a clear screen-run where you lose points whenever a bag guy is on screen? Most deaths/kills? Least jumping? Break all blocks? The list goes on a long time.

How's this? Calculate how many ingame seconds it takes to do all of these tricks for each level, then at the start of every level you're not allowed to move until you have that many exact seconds left (with maybe 10 or so to spare) and then you have to SPEEDRUN all of these SLOWRUNNING tricks before the time runs out. Edit: even better, tho I don't if it's possible or not, make a romhack that only gives you enough time in each stage to do the time wasting tricks, thus removing the waiting around part and making restarting less frustrating

THIS is prime content

[@okboomerbutitsacat8050]

Hmm. Noice

[@alexpzane]

Hell yah

[@handsomebrick]

Although that sounds annoying, it might actually be a keen optimizing tactic since it forces a very specific path and timing for each level.

[@tryxdc]

itd be INCREDIBLY annoying to do, especially because its warpless a tas of that could be cool though

11:46 - Well if Kosmic is incompetent then I don't want to know what I am.

[@colinrussell2017]

The title of this video alone killed me, KILLED ME! 😂😂😂😂 Thank you! Interesting project! Well done

[@majoryoshi]

Now there’ll be a category extension called slow%

[@prizm9515]

This is actually a super fun challenge. Thanks for the content. Maybe you could do a legit one in the future and make an actual category out of it.

KZbin is playing the challenge of: Recomending this masterpiece as slowly as possible

[@knuti27]

My phone is showing me this at 30 fps, so i can't see mario when he blinks after taking damage. That reminds me of that one trick in sm64

[@MuchWhittering]

Oh, is that why? I was wondering why he kept going invisible.

[@PackerFanGamer]

Ah that explains it

[@pbjwizard]

same here, i'm using a really low-end chromebook

[@System-ru5yt]

ohhhh that explains why i was literally so confused

[@xxtomeqxx7255]

Same

[@joevids6677]

This would actually be a speedrun I could complete

[@Therock18]

Initially I thought the same but then he said you're not allow die...🙁

[@fgeedee]

I can’t finish 8-2 without dying

[@fibyq]

I never thought I would be impressed by an hour long speedrun of mario

[@HardToBeAPoopGod]

i was rarely so entertained by a meme run, i love you so much

[@toastWs]

Guys at 11:24 he spliced the run if you look *REALLY* closely... Kosmic exposed for cheating in a slow run!

[@udinseason2292]

Yea ikr

[@fudgerounds91]

I've been watching so much speedrun content KZbin is recommending slowrunning now.

[@think_of_a_storyboard3635]

KZbin basically just said "slow down!"

[@edmundbrown4158]

Summoning Salt has to add this to the SMB Any percent WR progression video now.

[@CurtisDyer]

Waiting for the Summoning Salt coverage of this category.

[@Bismuth9]

4:54 Bruce makes a surprise appearance

[@pingupungo3365]

Bismuth I don't get this one, what did you mean? Also you have some legendary videos bro, keep it up

[@l.r9443]

Wait why was Bowser blue for a split second?

[@LoekTheKing]

It also happens at 21:09. That sprite is called "Bruce". I don't know why it happens, but I'm pretty sure you can only find it through that glitch or in The Lost Levels.

[@xdeathcon]

@Lucas R when you get close enough to Bowser the color palette swaps to make him green, but if you stand far enough back and he walks forward far enough he can get on screen with the palette used for the rest of the level. Basically he's blue for the same reason the koopas are blue.

Finally a slowrun! I've wanted someone to do this for a while now

[@Codricmon]

Nintendo right now: "Alright, I think people are finally starting to get tired of our old 2D platformers. We should do something fresh and exciting for our next installment!" "Sir, have you seen this video?" "What is he... Oh my god. Whatever, let's just sell them the same game for the seventh time."

[@nothomebutnotreally3782]

Nice job on the slowrun! Next time you should try beating it as fast as possible!

[@andrewprahst2529]

Can you make the frame rate drop slightly by having tons of entities on screen? Edit: 17:29 Well that answers my question
