My channel generally focuses on a more casual side of speedruns. With these videos I want to show off cool speedruns, explain how they work, and entertain. Hopefully you enjoy the content and maybe even take up speedrunning yourself, because it is truly a lot of fun!
Hello Neighbor description (from Steam):
ABOUT THIS GAME
Hello Neighbor is a stealth horror game about sneaking into your neighbor's house to figure out what horrible secrets he's hiding in the basement. You play against an advanced AI that learns from your every move. Really enjoying climbing through that backyard window? Expect a bear trap there. Sneaking through the front door? There'll be cameras there soon. Trying to escape? The Neighbor will find a shortcut and catch you.
Suspenseful horror gameplay that focuses on sneaking around your neighbor's house
Constantly evolving experience where the Neighbor's AI counters your moves, and learns from what you do
Sandbox-style gameplay with plenty of environmental interaction and physics

It’ll never not seem weird to me how this game was in alpha for years, each revision being radically different, and then the final game came out and just seemed a bit underwhelming compared to the constantly changing state the game used to be in.

[@edward9487]

No, not underwhelming. Overwhelmingly unlike and straight up a completely unnessecary, lethally terrible rework...

Alpha 1 was still the best imo. Pre-alpha was also really good, imo maybe even better in terms of the changes when you get caught. After that, 2 was meh, still decent at least, and 3, and later just feels like they overdid it and ended up making it worse than 1 because there was just too much. The house was too big, neighbor can't really do much and is nothing more than an inconvenience, etc.

I so badly wish we could get an expanded version of Alpha 1. Alpha 1 got everything it was trying to do right, and I think all fans at the time of its release would have been more than happy if they simply built off that original style. It looks, functions, flows and plays better. I think the developers simply got too ambitious and bit off more than they could chew, unfortunately. The original scope was perfect for what the game should have been, and the stylistic changes and crazy off the rails upgrades to the house ultimately made Hello Neighbor much less fun and interesting to play. It went from a unique and fairly atmospheric little horror game to a mindless pile of unfinished and poorly thought out ideas. I do give them a lot of credit the way they kept the theory and lore train going. I was so into this game’s lore all the way up until release because the secrets and mysteries were GENUINELY so interesting. It all ended up being lost in a broken game, sadly. It reminds me a lot of what happened to Cube World in a way, if anyone knows about that game anymore

[@Lasmelan]

@@CKVanilla And yet the neighbor IS scarier without facial expressions and gasps. The uncanny valley from a seemingly ordinary human dude acting unlike a human is both more unsettling and interesting than having him act as you'd expect. Not necessarily the direction the devs wanted to take the game in, but it's fairly obvious they didn't have a strong sense of direction regardless.

[@CKVanilla]

@@Lasmelan but the issue is he acts like a human, he does things normal people do with the exception of getting stuck on everything and taking weird routes because a1 has the worse path finding out of any build. So when I see a low poly man slowly walking towards me with no facial expression I don’t think “wow that’s scary, he’s showing no emotion”. I think “lol the devs forgot to add facial expressions AND him speeding up every time you get caught so I can outrun this guy backwards” As for direction, they mostly knew what they were doing. tB just thought it would be funny as hell to release 3 builds that were ancient and didn’t match the current state of the game AND market the game as a stealth horror game when the devs have NEVER considered it a horror game. They said it was a “first person thriller puzzler”. You can look at the 2015 Kickstarter page if you don’t believe me

Ahh I remember the days of watching KZbinrs struggle to uncover secrets in the alpha 😌 good times

[@UltraPoyoColt]

These speedruns are awesome. Great content!

[@FewFive]

I see you like this channel how about give mine a try

[@eugeneman1872]

This was so entertaining for no reason congrats on the new sub!

[@jullian8907]

The fact the house changed in every alpha is really cool. Also the main game now with the chapter style gameplay kinda is a run through of these alphas

[@doge1982]

This man has unlocked an achievement on his life and that is speedrunning.

[@neckrem4593]

I just love your videos and speedrunning in general ♥️

[@xxsnowyslothxx6333]

Respect for all his speed runs this legend will never be missed 🙏 ❤

[@animelovers6592]

Whenever I watched Eazy he makes me feel better Plus I love hello neighbor

[@djhuntingdown5565]

Just got back into this game thanks bro

[@totalphantasm]

i like the description of "crouch in the air and raise our hitbox" because thats quite literally how box jumps work

[@abbylee-dq7rm]

bro just speedrunned my whole childhood (I still like this game without cheating, and speed running. Just actually solving puzzles and stuff.)

[@mr.context3872]

I think the first and second ones were definitely the best when it comes to this, when they started to change the house from a regular house it got complicated

[@heymazingeryt]

Que bien lo hiciste, muy buen speedrun!! :D

[@tuckerroveto3586]

I must know how it stacks up against records! please include that in all your vids. If not I just assume no one else has done it.❤️

[@Intelligent-Guy]

Mostly forgotten game sadly. These alphas are all very different. Thanks for playing this.

Hello Neighbor Pre-Alpha: 39 seconds 76 milli-seconds 0:00 Hello Neighbor Alpha 1: 1 minute 22 seconds 75 milli-seconds 0:42 Hello Neighbor Alpha 2: 45 seconds 81 milli-seconds 2:16 Hello Neighbor Alpha 3: 1 minute 3 seconds 14 milli-seconds 3:14 Hello Neighbor Alpha 4: 4 minutes 20 seconds 76 milli-seconds 4:10

[@minhdangto8302]

4:20 for alpha 4, yeah, that might not be the best time but it is a perfect one

[@HolyCrusader5]

Anyone realize the absurd amount of the same bot comments in the reply section of comments?

[@Flumpie_Waffle]

The alphas are so nostalgic I miss them and I haven't even played the game once but I used to watch someone named bonus tank and some other KZbinrs play them and also the later builds and even then the full game but I'll gladly play this game if they add it to game pass but they only have secret neighbor on there but I wish there was a way for console you can play the old versions of the game

[@averageshitposter5546]

Neighbor: making all of these weird defenses to make sure his house doesn’t get invaded. Random unsupervised 21 year old being controlled by a speed runner:

[@creativespace8637]

Hello Neighbor is the most broken game to ever be brought to screen I love it

[@Mikeinator_]

So do I. Sure, the game is buggy as hell and the puzzle design is subpar at best, but that's why I love it.

[@BitterJoyXx]

I think Security Branch is around the same level of broken

[@guywholikesbread5923]

this dude is speedrunning my childhood

[@brunoslybruno]

the sad thing about the alphas is, the insanity & huge home *could* have worked, but it'd require for it to be done in a different way than it was and the saddest part is, to me, the most amazing thing about the early alphas was the a.i adapting strategies & changing to counter you, but by the end it was basically given up in favor of a huge house that isnt half as fun i seem some cool suggestions too, like making more neighbors appear (as a cult, or robot versions, or whatever) that would patrol each part of the house, that way even if you went to some part that is unreachable to normal neighbor, you would still have to play against the adapting a.i but sadly the way it ended was the most underwhelming it could have been, sad really that being said, amazing speedruns as always

[@mintea3241]

This brings back so many memories

[@cjplayz3328]

I love this game so much I am glad you did a speedrun

[@itzquick8745]

Omg I remember being so scared of this game if I got the heartbeat I would grab my iPad and turn it upside down

[@ElectroSkully]

My mind can’t comprehend how good this guy

[@chawlievr6668]

4:20 Wow

[@CasuallyShadow]

The quality of the game just falls every single alpha.

[@CKVanilla]

not really it started kinda high in PA, fell off a cliff in alpha 1, rised in a2, kept rising in a3, fell off in a4, fell into hell in beta 1 and 2, rose again in beta 3, then reached full game and it leveled out

[@boiofkoi]

yes, perfect, thank you

[@bortiblocks8856]

I've tried to speedrun some of the Hello Neighbor alphas a plenty of times, and I did pretty good on the alpha 1 one time, but I think that was just a lucky run. I'm now gonna go try to speedrun some of them using tricks that I learned from this video!

[@MaybeHarvey]

I watched the first alpha video with jacksepticeye a bunch when it came out and same with alpha one and when alpha 2 happened it was where I started to become more done with the game and I barely remember watching alpha 3 for like half a video once
