Thank you. I'll never forget your impact on this community, and what you brought to it and the game.

It is a really good community maybe watch SHiFTs videos called "how speedruning revived battle for bikini bottom" its a really good video its kinda long but trust me its good please watch it I think you will like the community :)

So this is the time shift is going to have in ten years.

Maybe, Xbox is like 4-5 mins faster with Xbox-only strats and loading time so maybe

[@turbokid64]

there are certain parts of this tas where you can literally see the game screaming out in agony

[@gintokisakata514]

Why does the cut off explosion at 4:25 make me laugh?

[@icewings_intotheclouds]

the menuing is also hilarious

[@nikorasukunisada266]

The game looked like it was screaming the second that menu was pulled out

[@icewings_intotheclouds]

I cannot believe what I'm looking at

[@johnderouen1038]

I am only really a casual fan of this game and its speedrun - I mostly just watch shift's vods - but holy dogshit, I can see why this was so hype for so long. This is pretty amazing stuff. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of time and exhaustive testing it would take to make something like this. Truly a labor of love.

[@icewings_intotheclouds]

it took 8 years of routing, 10 months of constructing the tas, and 200k re-records

[@daavee9206]

Thank you for this legendary work. This is absolutely insane and I'm genuinely really thankful for all the things you've done for this community.

[@SeymourTheOriginal]

The damaging boosting... dear God, that damaging boosting... so many new and innovative tricks added, this is insane

[@The1AndOnlyChad]

"I wonder when shift will catch up to this TAS guy, he seems really good at the video game"

[@alex1234567899100]

I love how it turns more and more crazy after every boss. Great work! Definitely one of the most impressive displays of tech this game has to offer.

[@ihatechaucer4413]

No joke Hazel, this was without a doubt the best thing I’ve watched in a long time. The most epic gameplay on the game of my childhood. I had to watch it several times just to take in the brilliance of each skip, trick, etc.

[@vulbepic]

The way Robo Sandy’s head SLIDES into the scoreboard is actually the most badass thing I’ve seen from this game in a while. Congrats

[@seafourty]

One year on, that ETG skip still amazes me as much as it did when I first saw it. On top of that, there's plenty of strats/tech which has massive potential for non-TAS runs. This is amazing work and you deserve great recognition for it.

[@itsPersonnal]

I'm glad you appreciate the run, it's the culmination of many many countless hours of testing, hypothesizing and improving. I hope it inspires people for many years to come. What does ETG stand for btw?

[@seafourty]

[@Deus_Auto]

This is a beautiful work of art. Not only are the jokes that made their way into the TAS excellent, but the spatulas might as well be lined-up one after the other with no animations. I am 🅁🄴🅀🅄🄸🅁🄸🄽🄶 my friends to see it.

[@zachtarantino]

Incredible work Hazel! This is the most creative display of strats I've ever witnessed in a game and it truly made my jaw drop seeing the stuff you pulled off. Absolute legend.

[@monkeylord2541]

31:03 the way spongebob zooms in and out of frame is hilarious to me

This is absolutely insane, the culmination of a decade of strat finding & relentless optimization.

[@Erroangelos]

I've been watching speedruns of this game for a few years now, and never seen a tas done before. This was simply jaw dropping. Every moment, everything since the very first jellyfish damage boost into fields just kept blowing my mind over and over again. This game is a masterpiece to run, and this run felt like a magnum opus we all deserved as a treat.

[@scrub4873]

Congrats on finishing the TAS, It was very enjoyable to watch and I hope you do more!
