Speedrunning The Alphabet In Stardew Valley

Collecting an item for every letter of the alphabet dictated by a funny wheel. It could had been so much worse.

[@joemeschino1819]

I didn’t realize he starts over every time. Thought it was all the same world. Oof

[@hayasakaaaa]

Wait, that’s actually a **good idea**

[@blueberryofdoom1063]

Same! I thought he was playing on the same save every time!

[@gwendolynrobinson3900]

I told my husband about this video, and that he re-spun the wheel for E because he didn't want to play the entire game and get every achievement. My husband thought it wouldn't be so bad because he'd probably aquire just about everything possible and make the rest of acquiring alphabet items easy. To which I said "you'd think, but he makes a new farm for each letter of the alphabet." He said "oh. Does he HATE himself??" Well, not enough to play for the Elegant Turban apparently 😂

[@brindleface9316]

That would take away a lot of the challenges tough. At letter D he unlocks ginger island and if he gets another ginger island item it would be very easy or he would maybe already own the item. Such as egg or wool

[@acolytetojippity]

​@@brindleface9316but it would turn it into a "bingo" style challenge. a speedrun where the end goal is randomly generated by this alphabet wheel would actually be really interesting

[@everettgreenwood4338]

We need to see a separate elegant turban speed run as an apology for your veto

[@mikec4390]

He has done an all hats run before if I'm not mistaken.

[@Cra-b]

@@mikec4390 then do it again

[@hattrickster33]

yes

[@fwutig1121]

hes doing it now lmao

[@als_pals]

One letter taking four and a half hours is pure pain

[@CrazyEights888]

Yeah imagine if he didn't veto the Elegant Turban lmao

[@aurias42]

I definitely think it would be interesting to pre-roll all 26 and then do them in one world Far less repetition and more interesting routing lol

[@Abizcool12]

Yeah, I had the same idea. I might add that to my bucket list

[@pandreanne7]

I wonder how much faster it would have been if you do it all on the same world

[@elcucumber2847]

bet you $20 he does this within a year

[@calvindang7291]

i'd imagine once you get close to perfection it's easy unless you roll one of the really annoying ones

[@CyalaXiao]

yeah this would have been suchhhhh a cool challenge if he made essentially a 'bingo board' with the 26 objects on it that he could stamp off as he got them. roll them all at the beginning and play the world to try to get all those items. Having to build a unique specific strategy to get through the game for whatever was rolled. That would have been incredible. Kind of like how Lilaggy does randomizer elden ring bingo races against speedrunners and stuff. that kind of interface would be excellent for this challenge.

[@dimwarlock]

I mean... if he gets a hard challenge early, then he would have everything unlocked for the rest of them later on, which wouldn't be a challenge by that point.

[@BigIndianBindi-jy1cz]

I wonder how much adderall he uses.

[@Alwayz114]

Not to subject you to MORE dumb ideas, but doing this all in one world might have some interesting routing decisions. As close to a Randomizer as this game could get. Wouldnt be hard at all to cook up a list generator as well

[@czechchick101]

You might enjoy Argon matrix! He is doing this exact thing and streaming roughly 3 times a week to complete the perfection goals in order as dictated by a randomizer! And he can’t complete any other tasks until he’s gotten them. Super great content

[@Sugar3Glider]

"One day I'll get a Prismatic from one of these" as a Prismatic pops out

[@AshlynLeeThatsMe]

I wonder what a true "Alphabet%" run would look like. Lets say the goal is to put an item representing each applicable letter of the Alphabet all in one chest together, and the time stops when the last item is thrown into the designated chest. Lets also assume that the traveling merchant is banned. What items would you go for? Whats the most reliable, fastest ways to get those items? Where on your farm should the chest go to give you the best time? I could be onto something here... I'm probably not, but let a girl dream.

[@mirjanbouma]

No, no, let's roll with this. I suspect it would turn into a "these 26 (25?) Items specifically because they're the easiest"-run, but still, I want to see at least one SDV KZbinr have a crack at your idea. 🙂

[@JasperCasper24]

I’d love concernedape to just add a random xylophone, either as an artefact maybe or a winter star gift like the tea set. Or maybe a xylophone block lol just to make this run work

[@HeathRat]

or an X-Ray Tetra!

[@mirjanbouma]

Xavier soup, or Xyris (it's a flower)

[@jorddy9844]

xylophone could also be a penny/vincent/jas heart event like a little “music class”. could have sebastian and sam come in to help coach WAIT BETTER IDEA IS A VINCENT/SAM HEART EVENT WHERE VINCENT IS TRYING TO LEARN THE XYLOPHONE SO HE CAN PLAY WITH HIS OLDER BROTHER IN THE BAND ONE DAY imagine vincent showing up at the concert heart event ugh

[@rainadu7853]

"7 hearts with Clint. Alright, people are gonna hate this."

[@sty1623]

Once you get enough hearts with him he is rly nice, plus the events with emily are so cute

[@Gilsworth]

"This is cool! Thanks." A way to a man's heart is a dozen parsnips and some flowers.

[@lesliew8362]

The storyline of the marriage speedrun is weird when you look at it from a npc's point of view. This new farmer just started giving Alex parsnips within days of their arrival, and kept doing it everyday for a year or so until he finally caved and agreed to marry them.🤣

[@llamalady]

Do it again but all in the same world! You could even do all rolls togethr, so you have he listof items you need in his world :)

[@YT-Lucas]

It's pleasing to my brain that the X / marriage run spin HAD an X in the name.

[@vloreavlona]

Are you acoustic?

[@Calyaer]

@@vloreavlona No, I believe they're electric.

[@steff8069]

the elegant turban moment was a genuine funny moment, I loved it. Great content as always :) Also the intro is class XD

[@Jferg90342]

Another banger from haboo. can’t wait to watch this and not finish any college assignments :)

[@Ripples11k]

I hate how true this is :)

[@potato.pancake]

me every day

[@abbipookss]

I fall asleep to his videos, they are just so calming

[@chiaraventura9718]

me too!!

[@jacquesalope]

4:53 as a maniacal stardew player myself I can confirm that what's wrong with this man is the stardew. does something to your brain to play it

[@someone3011]

I thought you would roll your entire list of letters beforehand and then try to get them all within one save file as fast as you can :D I'd love to see that version too!

[@charliegreen7988]

He starts off saying it’s a stupid challenge but I clicked on the video so excited for it😂

[@itzpoppyseed]

just wanna let yall know, haboo has 3k+ hours on terraria and hasn't made a Cell Phone in the game

[@Nightweaver1]

Haboo: The single most dedicated and possibly insane SDV runner on the internet.

[@melinagraves1076]

This was prime content. Thank you. I just got into stardew like 3 weeks ago so I'm late to the party. 300 hours already though

[@JReilly9945]

You could make a fascinating playthrough out of rolling all your letters and speedrunning that list.

[@meggle12]

the unmilled rice spin had me laughing for like 5 minutes

[@JackFox-in6xi]

Definitely not watching this at 11pm secretly

[@randomaccount64]

11:48pm. Are you in my walls? 😂😂

[@nonamewriter7950]

"It's just that easy" he says after the speed run counter just did a jump cut of 4 hours

[@MissRora]

14:59 Watching this after 1.6 is out makes this one kinda funny. No Meadowlands farm for you!

[@toshi6041]

coming to this video after the 1.6 update makes me wonder how painful this challenge would be with all of the mastery items

[@holzzaune]

i discovered your channel through your world record speedrun videos, and i would watch them to fall asleep. you are one of my favorite stardew valley content creator, if not the top first. i love your videos so much:)

[@themidnighttiger96]

love the little arguements in the chat, espically the riceballs and donuts thing. guess they were talking about the 4kids pokemon?

[@gb1reinwald]

This was pure fun! The W one just had to be the way it was.

[@ImElliePaige]

This is my first time watching this channel and, holy shit, his machanic efficiency is insane.

[@sunnyrafter5614]

Just here to express my full support for the veto. 😂 Anything to keep the KZbin videos coming faster!

[@nathanwongchinrenntps2403]

I like how the wheel wants haboo to complete perfection

[@amandastewart7459]

is that your emotional support salad you were holding during the simon says game on ginger island?

[@callalillity]

Pretty much! He does it because it pauses time. Helps you get more walnuts in one day. It’s a hang up from perfection speed runs, I think.

[@richarddavis3110]

imo this wouldn't have only been far less painful to just do in the same world, it would have been more interesting as well. that said, great video as always!

[@avatarninjacat]

I think it's funny that chat wanted a veto and would have used it on hardwood and then be even more tilted when wood fence came up.

[@khepri_Eyyy]

I am not used to watch speedruns, but I actually enjoying all of ur contents! Tbh, I have some dum speedrun idea. Get every single soup (To reduce confusion, the food must contain word 'soup' in stardew valley item name. So that would be ①Alogae soup, ②Pumpkin soup, ③Trout soup, ④Tom Kha soup, ⑤Parsnip soup) And eat them all. it doesn't matter if you eat it separately during progress, or eat all at once.

[@joetg]

more hand drawn art please

[@bullseyebob4160]

When you are so goated you just decide to make your first sword the galaxy sword

[@KellanSchaub]

You should’ve also put in quote marks from paintings

[@dxrksxuls8]

we both said "is mayonnaise an instrument" at the same time hahahaha

[@GIandringg]

Not gonna lie, I lost it when he got the Elegant turban and thought it wasn't bad lmao

[@alyssag6097]

babe wake up haboo uploaded

[@MaxerV19]

HMMMMM, I AM AWAKE

[@se_charlie6022]

Loved the vid! I was convinced you would need more vetos!

[@zxjc]

Now do it with the living hat :D

[@SirenPandaSabo]

He has already done a living hat speedrun .3.

[@xymion]

We should have been allowed a veto as a chat Madge Great video tho! Good work on it!

[@lilsbett]

This is cool! Thanks.

[@your_local_bartfart]

4:54 dude there isn’t anything wrong with u! love your sdv videos, keep it up!

[@mitnehmerrippe]

The unmilled rice roll was funnier for me than it should have been.

[@DazzlingNishi]

so I learnt with this video that apparently winter tilling has a different pattern than clay farming I've just been using the clay farming pattern for winter tilling D:

[@LDaemontus]

Alphabet speedrun challenge but its game mechanics, not items eg. all spouses, all professions, unlockable areas, mine types, quests, wanted items, recipes etc. are valid for the wheel.

[@caritahearts2405]

I request adding a new letter: "?"

[@bitzibaerlie]

Hope to see more of these. It was a very fun watch. And with the items you did removed, you will have fewer letters in the future.

[@mirjanbouma]

Spoiler for the letter X below. ... I think Alex is the only one with an X in the name (that can move in), so he was the best fit for the letter anyway!

[@Rachel98246]

The Nigel Thornberry ‘Bonjour’ extravaganza catches me off guard every. Single. Time! XD

[@Rosebud_cats_2024]

Quality retaining soil is easiest from pierre, deluxe on the other hand is at the island trader for 50 cinder shards

[@B0az0n]

28:00 man predicted drink mayo%

[@randallsmith6639]

I think from a planning/strategy stages point, it works have been more interesting if all 26 items were determined at the start, and this was done in one farm.

[@fishbo_uses_soap]

28:40 Why you play Seanie's outro song right in the middle of the video?

[@katytreb4963]

a haboo upload day is a good day

[@12Cashmere]

That veto was worth it. A hilarious moment.

[@VioLily]

You should do a CC speedrun, only using travelling merchant

[@ehudkotegaro]

I think the X should have been Iridium Axe speed-run instead. Or maybe just an Axe Upgrade Speedrun.

[@melissa_with2s]

cool video habs, its safe to say you're kinda funny :) enjoyed watching this live and also on yt! hope to see more

[@gamingtime9716]

Not every item, though. Where was Uranium Ore or Uranium Bar on the U wheel?

[@aliWpig]

i love the way habbo is just genuinely funny, it's so fun to watch :)

[@katiescarisbrick4117]

this could be a good charity stream idea maybe?! viewers can donate small amounts to veto/take things off the list

[@FJ_17]

Recently started a new farm and got living hay day two. Didn’t realize and later picked it up on day three, so confused.

[@brabsis]

Where can i find this wheel?

[@pieapplebomb]

I wasn't paying attention to the timer very closely so when you said to look at it for how long it took you to get the Nautilus i genuinely thought that one single item took you 16 full hours to get. I didn't realize you were timing the whole thing, i thought you were resettimg the timer per item.

[@aimeeallred823]

I wish the music was louder

[@lyyretv1126]

Make a vods channel, Haboo! I cannot get enough haboo content

cant u get knights helmet from the little metal heads past floor 80??

23:35 ur hair looks really good here ?? idk what's different about it but it's like noticably very nice to me

Why did he say quality retaining soil was in gender Island? You can get it from the crates in the first area of the mines

[@LdangerB]

An someone explain winter tilling? What is the purpose to make money? 18:56

[@Z4ch_.]

Damn this man looks much different since I last saw him

[@rosef7203]

After looking at the elegant turban in the new 1.6 it is much worse since it is all achievements and 50k gold holy cow

Spectacular editing as always 👌
