The Story of Mario Odyssey's 2 Player World Record Speedrun

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

The DAY after this video released, we got the first ever sub 57 2P run!! We're aiming to beat Tyron's time very soon, but for now you can give that a watch here kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKuZkoGLnpiLg9k :) Thank you all so much for the amazing reception on this video

[@NoBreadsticks]

congrats!!

[@ulrikcramerandersen5824]

Congratulations on the 57! and good luck on beating 56:40😬

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

We’ve been getting so close! Thank you!

[@Maxsterious1]

aged well

[@gorganim7671]

Could not have asked for a better video to represent 2p, absolutely phenomenal

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

You’re the number 1 person I’d want to hear that from. Thank you for being such a consistent inspiration to us both!

[@ariadvance]

some of the best storytelling and editing skills in and around mario speedrunning, incredible video and can’t wait for the 56!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

hell yeah! Glad to bring something new and exciting to the community

[@LTMStarlight]

So glad I got recommended this. Speedrunning has always been something I have been an avid fan of waaaay back when my brothers would put GDQ on the tv and I would pop in. I have been one of the first couple hundred (I think) or fewer people to know about the accidental metal gear solid skip, I just recently started my first handful of speedruns at Hades and just in general been a big fan of it for a while. And the amount of effort that gets put into this needs more attention. Congrats on the WR.

[@chericeri]

my eyes may have leaked slightly, super proud of u and how far you've come in the last few years as a speedrunner, streamer, video creator, and all around awesome human

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Aww thanks so much, yeah the run is stupidly optimised. Thinking of doing an explanation/analysis video when we get 56 which will dive deep into all the strats

[@chericeri]

@@ZackInTheBoxx ooh that would be super interesting!

[@DinocoSparrow]

​@@chericeriYeah same, this made me appreciate it a lot more.

[@PodzSR]

Such a great vid, huge shoutouts to both of you two for pushing a category people like (with a non trivial advantage) to new limits. Great job!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Aw thanks so much podz! That means a lot man

[@Drumm3r18]

Brilliant Video! Congrats on the WR!

[@boblovescheese]

really great video Zack! Good luck to both of you on getting the overall world record! I know you guys can do it

[@Linkzcap]

excellent vgm choices for bg music

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

I am so happy with the soundtrack for this vid, glad you agree!

[@Videogamereview64]

Fire video. Wholesome, detailed, everything. Bravo to you two wonderful British men and I can't wait to see a 56 from y'all.

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Thank you so much!!

[@thedudethatneveruploads2617]

I don't think I've EVER seen such an underrated video, and I say that very sparingly. This was an incredibly well-edited video with a great story, and to see that it only has 220 likes in three months is insulting. Props to the great video, and good job on the record!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Dude this comment put such a smile on my face, thank you! This is by far my best performing video ever and I couldn’t be more happy with it. Hopefully I’ll be seeing you around!

[@Zack207]

What a great video man, finally was able to watch the whole thing through. Y'all are so lucky to go to the same university and be able to become good friends and grind 2p together. Great video and editing, you deserve a lot more attention fr

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

We are very lucky indeed :)

[@darkrai3110]

Such an awesome video and journey to watch! ^-^ Genuinely amazing to watch! I especially loved the montages with beat synced music, the sudden asgore music, and the spirit tracks music. Thanks so much for this!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@Slinkylink420]

Crazy type runs. Deserves so much more attention than it currently has. Best of luck to the both of you with the runs!👍

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Omg thank you so much!! I hope this video grows too :) thanks for the good luck, we will be needing it!

[@slitzify_smo]

I know im late to this video, but the progression you guys have made since your first runs, all the way to now having the world record AND the first 56 in this category is amazing. i am so so proud of you two, and i cant wait to see what you guys do in the future! GGs Zack and Jambo!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Absolute legend! Thank you!

[@Y3X_X]

wow zack incredible video and congratulations you really earned this

[@lepetit3670]

Wow! What can i say man... Such a good, well paced and edited video. Not only that buy but the actual story you told is incredible. Like common guys. Stop being so cracked and give poor gorganim a chance! Had so much fun watching this. Keep up the amazing grind ❤

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

You’re far too kind! You’re the best kilian, it means a lot

[@Hoørayxdd]

[@stealthz9580]

Man, watching this vid makes me want to come back, and get that 59 at long last. Such a great vid

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Hell yeah Stealthz! We can grind together :) thanks for the kind words

[@jackringel485]

[@IQdog-dj4sq]

You Are so good, 2p is so misrepresented in the community, and especially actual 2p instead of FEET. just such a great vid

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Tysm!

[@Tnijd]

This video is peak storytelling. Nice job on the wrs :D

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

omg I started tearing up when you thanked Jambo not just for being your speedrunning companion but for his friendship 🥲

[@samuroleon]

fantastic video zack!

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Fantastic comment Samu!

[@Mrgravitycoil]

3:03 I just now realized you hit the rock with cappy LOL

[@dani4ever]

I love the fact that you see random people here and there mocking speedruns and saying that speedrunners are people with no lives. But actually lots of speedrunners are like you guys. Focusing on college and having fun with this on your off time. Congrats on the good grades and on the WR. The speedrun community in general is one of the best parts of gaming, and I say this as someone who just consumes speedruns, never done one myself. ❤ ❤❤❤

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

That’s the nicest comment I’ve ever read, aww! You’re absolutely right, speedrunning has brought us so much joy and been an integral part of our university lives, as it has brought us together to socialise both in runs, and also outside :) appreciate the congrats and I’m glad to be able to bless peoples lives in this little community

[@dani4ever]

@@ZackInTheBoxx Eheh I'm happy to hear that. ''You'' speedrunners have been part of my entertainment for so long now. I'm trully thankfull for this community :)

[@psbeast8582]

I need tips for 2 player runs any tips to recommend it’s me and my friend playing not me with my hand and feet our record is 2:2459

[@ZackInTheBoxx]

Well done guys! I am currently in the early stages of making a 2 player tutorial video, but I think even without that, the best advice I have is just to keep playing! You’ll bring your times down very fast with frequent runs and practicing your mistakes between them. The person who plays Mario would also really benefit from some 1 player practice too, for which I recommend Tomshi’s beginner tutorials. Other than that if you have any specific questions feel free to join my discord and ask there, or ask when I’m live on twitch :))
