Sonic The Hedgehog Speed Run

GH1 - 0:25 - as always
GH2 - 0:19 - get it 50% of the time now
GH3 - 0:37 - in retrospect, I should've reset, but I was so sick of resetting at that time
MZ1 - 0:58 - target time is 54 but the falling blocks blocked me ;-)
MZ2 - 0:11 - ohhh yeahhh
MZ3 - 0:43 (0:09+0:34) - this is literally a do or die level, so 2nd try ain't too bad
SY1 - 0:27 - alright
SY2 - 0:40 - abysmal
SY3 - 0:54 - best i've done in a SS ever
LZ1 - 0:48 - best i've done in a SS ever
LZ2 - 0:35 - meh
LZ3 - 1:29 - best i've done in a SS ever
SL1 - 0:28 - missed the zip but rest went ok
SL2 - 0:32 - already failed at the approach, rest meh
SL3 - 1:04 - lol, Sonic zipped too fast and broke the loop-the-loop
SB1 - 0:46 - a tiny mistake during the first 12 seconds results in an instant + 5, due to the timed platform afterwards, thus i'm happy with it
SB2 - 0:40 - at least i didn't fall through or get stuck (10% of the time I land on the LEFT of the elevator, which means, you cannot proceed)
SB3 - 0:13 - got a pretty consistent strat, despite this zip relies on subpixels
FZ - 1:14 - luckily didn't get the 2-3 pattern, with Robotnik in the 2nd, which is pretty hard to hit
Total in-game time: 13:03
I intended to upload only a sub 13 run, but it turns out to be more tedious than I thought. I might get it tomorrow or in months, nobody knows. Now I fully understand why many famous Sonic speedrunners call this game '"unrunnable".
Thanks, if you read all this. :-)

Hey, I'm an assistant in a special needs classroom. Earlier today, one of my students expressed nerves about the bad weather we were having. Eventually, we were called for a real-world tornado warning and had to go out in the hall. I could tell my student was scared, so I got out my phone and pulled up this video since I know they played Sonic a lot. Sat down on the floor with them and watched too. This calmed my student down and brought peace. Thank you for doing these videos and putting them up.

This brings me great joy

I will sit here & watch this all day

[@Sekiria23]

Excellent job. BTW, I actually timed you in real-time (since this was in-game time you put up), and I clocked you at 18:46. It started when you hit Start and ended upon fadeout into the ending.

[@wilihey1425]

this fucking game ... i love it so much

[@SaeedAcronia]

Thank you for making my childhood unforgettable.

[@Mr_Grape]

Can I just say I absolutely love the labyrinth zone the music levels and water it's just awesome

[@mazda9624]

When I was a teen, I was so happy with myself that I could best Marble Zone Act 1

[@SSANCHEZ1985]

BGM for this game is LEGENDARY

[@CAZZgardner]

That one ring he recollected in spring yard zone with the spiked balls was incredible. ( the that bounced away.) Plus he has displayed what godspeed really means👏🏿😁

[@jonatanp.1976]

Even after all this time, I still come back to this video pretty frequently

[@ndknight]

To this day I still don't understand what the purpose of the fight with Dr. Robotnik in Labyrinth is, to just follow him up a vertical shaft of the level, avoiding a few obstacles, and that's it? Growing up playing this game I always thought you had to defeat him before you reached the top or you drowned, and that's what always happened to me and I could never beat Labyrinth zone 3 ever as a kid. It wasn't until I was literally in my 20's that I found out you aren't supposed to fight him at all and just follow him up until the level ends. What a fucking tease that the game makes you fight him for the first 3 levels, so naturally in the fourth level climbing up after him I thought you had to hit and defeat him!

[@Geistlos0]

Thats beautiful. Psychoanalysiswise Sonic stands for you and Dr. Robotnik for your father. The young son always wants to be faster, bigger and greater but your father has done everything before you, so he is already there and block you. (Parents like to tell something like that everbody has to make own expereriences. Or something like if you grown up you will understand the world better.) In LZ3 it is not the beating of 'Ödipus-conflict' anymore. (Ödipus killed his father to marry his mother.) The urge symbolised by the water grows and grows and grows. You want to reach challenges in your life, live an interesting with beauty and dangerous things. But you can not go as easy as you want because your older parents want you to spend time with them like on christmas or birthday. They want to talk with you on phone, make their statements on your girlfriend or profession. So you have the very thin area of own identity because of your growing urge (IT) and your parents (Over-I).

Dude same.

[@crystalmaiden7791]

This looked fantastic. I might try to replicate some of these glitches myself, although I'm sure it's a lot harder than it looks. The Scrap Brain Act 3 skip at least looks easy.

[@fagundesdenoronha-gamemusi1300]

I like TAS videos. Always shows something that even the developers didn't know about.

[@Jasonvincent404]

What a wonderful sound track this was especially the marble zone

[@kadegibson8091]

when I was little I was in this reck center or daycare or whatever you want to call it, now the reason I'm bringing this up because there were Therese MacBooks or some kind of pc that had old arcade games such as Tetris and this, and I played the hell out of this, when I got there was run to the computers to just play this even though I was bad at games at this time so what I'm trying to say is that this was my childhood and it's so good to see someone found cool ways to "cheat" the level and/or games.

i don't care what anyone says. everyone who beat sonic 1 (at all without save states) is a legend. you, my good person, are a double legend for this speedrun

All I can say is skill !!!

[@mcgarbagenuggets8793]

[@kylegowling6554]

I wouldn't say skill. More like cleverly exposing glitches.

Mc Garbagenuggets No. Not really.

[@indymaximus1566]

sonic is such a good game. Reason people hate it now is because they're catering for the younger audience, meaning people who played it back in the 1990's are butt hurt that Sega don't give a shit about them anymore.

[@gferrol118]

Or people hate it because they make games like sonic 06 and sonic unleashed

[@zakmann0294]

+gferrol118 sonic unleashed was great. What are you talking about? Rise of lyric on the other hand...

[@gferrol118]

+Zakmann02 yeah, a game where sonic turns into a warehog, which tanks the frame rage when you attack a large amount of enemies, for some reason have massively stretchy arms, and try help someone find out what their name is instead of stopping the world literally splitting in half is fun. Also the 2D sections can mostly be completed just by pushing a single button. That isn't good gameplay

[@zakmann0294]

+gferrol118 I remember it for the speed sections. Only part I come back too.

[@gferrol118]

+Zakmann02 a game where you only consider half the game to be good, isn't a good game. Also the speed sections weren't good since you could just hit 1 button for most of it to get through it

perfect game an music

[@JeelKher]

The speedrun is impressive to say the least, but also, the last time I played this game was the 1st 2 years after its release: Thank you for the memories and nostalgia. I was 7.

[@mrvaporiz]

I never noticed how the music speeded up as you got faster What a fun detail

[@TheUltimateCow]

When I was a kid, this was the only game I had that I never beat. This is the first time I've seen the ending :P

[@matthememelord7829]

3:58 if only I knew that when I was playing damb it

[@yamyas]

i like your play. it inspires me so much to retry this game.

[@Dabing_Marcus]

This speedrun was still worth it even after a decade

[@AeonQuasar]

Never knew of the shortcut in LZ1, and LZ3 was my nightmare map. That boss fight was so hard (and scary :D)
