The Journey to Conquer Zeepkist

I beat the 20 most difficult challenge maps in Zeepkist. This is how I did and my thoughts on all the maps.
JJ3: • $100 If You Can Beat T...
JJ2: • I Built The Hardest Tr...
TLAM: • The Long Awaited Moment

Prism: • Prism
Do let me know what you think. This was a fun one to put together, like I said some more bigger projects in the works. Trying to focus more on quality.

For anyone curious about the current ZDL bellow is a link to the sheet. The list in the video is a couple weeks old at this point, lemme know if you want to see me beat these new challenges as well. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DekRtBjE2P83hpAcgjvcqSILjMFuouI0I7hSA7SpmhA/edit#gid=0

Beat them

[@Der_Yoloist]

Sandals.. I think your Zeepkist videos are my favorite from all the Zeepkist KZbin content we get. You always do a really good job in producing them and mostly I like the choice of music. kudos and keep up :wisdom:

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

I appreciate that, spent extra time getting the music just how I wanted on this one.

[@cbadcruiser]

It definitely shows. It really fit well @@Hi_Im_Sandals

[@CookiesVsCookies]

Sandals you are 👑!

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

Cookie you are 🐐!

[@Rouge-Angel8]

Love how the power of editing makes theses tracks easy, but in reality some take 15hrs plus or minus

[@owlplague]

You are insane!

In the membrane

[@The_Lexer]

It's me. Hi. I'm the one who broke Sandals.

[@Tombsar]

At zeep time, everybody agrees.

[@jg-mtb8057]

The long awaited moment looks like a mix between your style and Twoface's style

[@JobWah]

Nice vid Sandals. Can't believe "For Ronan" didn't make the list though. Huge oversight.

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

I think thats just too hard for even the list of hard tracks.

[@patrickbliss9264]

​@@Hi_Im_SandalsThere's a track more difficult than JJ3?

[@R0nanC]

G O A T I remember talking about this in DMs a couple of months back and i knew you could do it ggs sandals 🎉

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

iirc that's actually about a different video I put on pause but should probably look back into.

[@jesselegere4591]

Loved the video but if I could make a small suggestion for next time. Throw some of the track play on the screen when you talk about them during the ranking section. I forgot what most of the tracks were called by the time you started ranking them. Also, the music is on point my man.

[@zubrowskimissions9575]

The way the rate rock climbing routes is probably a good system to use for rating tracks. There are essentially ten levels of rating (5-14) where each increased level equates to a skill a climber must master to be able to complete the climb without falling. So, the hardest part of the climb dictates the rating and is mostly agnostic of length of climb. Halfway through (10) the letters a-d are added to further segment the ratings. The analogy would be ice track with a speed check might be a 10a, but one with a demanding speed check would be a 10b or 10c because a racer might have to master a few skills to conquer instead of just one. Hope you get the idea, cuz this comments getting long 😴

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

Thats such a good idea, 100% agree that'd be a good way to categorize them. The only issue is my understanding of how that system works is questionable at best lol

[@Roader_021]

ooh yeah that sounds cool

[@fiets38]

This is really impressive omg

[@R3P1N5]

Seems like you're in need of new challenges (nice work)! I'll get started on something unusual for you.

[@alexdacat7052]

i have nothing to say but i know commenting helps with algorithm recommendation

[@metawarp7446]

Sandals. You're a legend!

[@metawarp7446]

Also, I enjoyed the tierlist part - great vid m8

This has inspired me to start cosmic bobsled 2

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

Oh no, what have I done....

@@Hi_Im_Sandals you have encouraged a great contribution to the Zeepkist community.

Going to continue watching once I get to my desk job

[@MeTheMaou]

nice man, sad to see no high hell tracks on there kek

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

True, Been a long time since I played them . Whats the hardest? Could check out where on the list it should be.

[@zeepmaphunt]

dang, i might have to return just so i can make a harder map than prism

[@chandlerstagg2813]

Sweet timing

[@zivecef]

last time i checked you haven't beaten any of the onions therefore i am simply better (but seriously good job)

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

Hmmm I dont think Ive seen those maps, guess I got something else to play now. If they are that tough you should have them added to the list though, make it as official of a list as we can. And thank you :)

[@zivecef]

@@Hi_Im_Sandals their not tough they just suck, really not that hard if you know where to go ;)

[@Quickracer10]

GG

[@essby_]

you should make a video completing red dread by maki!

[@HELLOHELLO792]

good video

[@benjaminfranklin329]

Was there a set of criteria, like RNG is excluded, no unity bounce for optimal line etc?

[@hydro6252]

Sandals was following a list that has been updated since the making of this video to not include stuff that isn’t as skill based such as luck based maps like Jakie’s rage and puzzle maps like 50 block compact, and if a track is only hard because of rng-based things or is only hard because it’s poorly made it is completely left out of the list

[@hydro6252]

Sandals was also just not playing any map that was fake validated then uploaded and finished by a player after upload, however maps like this are still included on the difficulty list

[@benjaminfranklin329]

@@hydro6252 thanks for the clarification

[@bokiekitten4591]

how do you get levels in editor for savestates

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

All of the maps you are subscribed to show up here: Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\ And you need to copy past the files here: C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Zeepkist

[@bokiekitten4591]

thanks@@Hi_Im_Sandals

[@terryxD]

would be crazy if someone did all of the maps with 0 deaths/restarts all back to back

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

That would be insane, unfortunately I really dont see that being anywhere near humanly possible. Videos never seem to do challenge maps justice in this game, they always look easy but I promise playing them is not easy.

[@hydro6252]

Outdated

[@Hi_Im_Sandals]

Are there even newer maps? Is a part 2 needed?

[@kevinr2892]

The only map I can think of to add possibly would be Red Dread

[@hydro6252]

@@Hi_Im_SandalsI think a part two is needed, but maybe wait until kern and I finish the our series cause there are still two maps to go

[@hydro6252]

@@kevinr2892there are so many more lol, even some harder than dragon now
