Well there are a few tricks~
0-9 is pretty basic i suppose
9-24~ you can always jump below the first spike with a double jump.
15~-19 you can abuse the fact that you can jump again after hugging a wall by hugging the things at the end of the level that fall down and double jumping at the end
20-25 pretty basic stuff you can jump straight over it at 20 by using the double jump trick with hugging the wall
26-32~ it's pretty basic stuff jump over the first saw and skip the last plattform for a quick finish
33-40 I think this is when the inivisible wall appears... the first one you have to let yourself fall down jump a tthe right moment for the rest it's simply jumping over it and having good cannons GL :3

For 9-24, you mean instead of going over the middle platform, you go through the small 2 spikes passage ?

I gotta use the "hugging the wall" trick more, I only used it for 15-19 so far.

Edit : 13:41 this morning, getting addictive

I have watched that video 4 times now i think. love the history of the game!
Anyone knows of any similar videos, where the history of running a game is being told?


We do a short section on history in every Game of the Week episode of The Sunday Sequence Break. Unfortunately, very view games have the rich history of OoT.


Yes i have been and watched a few videos on the YT channel. But it hasn´t been updated in soo long ! Do you have any other place where you store the videos ?


It's funny you should ask, because we have just updated our website with an up to date archive: http://tssbreak.com/

You can also check the twitch archives for episodes as well.



Cool beans, thanks man!
EDIT: what a beautifully simple website, good job

I watched tssb sometimes and although i enjoy the presentation i would love more in depth stuff rather than looking at a guy playing a 10 years old game and seeing some shortcuts then again ... time~

The old episodes are more in-depth but the shows ran long and alienated/confused a majority of the audience. We much prefer the new "introduction" style to the show.

The idea is that you get to learn a good chunk about each game at first and that if you want to learn more, you now have the means to do so.

If you check older eps like Legend of Zelda (nes) & GTA Vice City you'll see some examples of heavy depth in episodes.

Not really sure what you mean by the second part of your sentence though.

Older games are more popular to speedrun because more viewers can relate to them. Viewers generally don't find games that they've never seen before as interesting as games that they have had experience with. So I'm not sure what you meant by the 10 year old game part, that's what you're going to see in most of speedrunning.

Speedrunning can be a cruel mistress. You also learn far more about a game than you ever thought you would.

I speedrun Ocarina of Time on speedrunslive.com and on my twitch channel ( twitch.tv/grokken ). Most of the time I am doing speedruns of Any% and MST, but sometimes I race other categories such as bingo. and I try to communicate with viewers as much as possible so if anyone is trying to learn how to speedrun OoT feel free to join my channel and ask questions.

EDIT: I just went live if anyone want to watch.

Honestly that's probably one of the best things about speed running is how intimate you become with the game. It's almost like a relationship there's give and take. You give time and effort it takes your run and smashes your hopes and dreams. The game being cruel is a vital part of the game evolving. If it isn't cruel there is no development into new strategies or routes to tame the cruelty. It's a cycle, or at least should be until you enter the realm of going for frame perfect

Rofl this is so true. When I started running Golden Sun I never expected to learn as much as I have about the RNG within the game ;;

A couple years ago I explained why I speedrun by comparing it to spicing up an old marriage with whips and chains...

Draz dont try and kill everyones hopes and dreams that nothing could be worse than pokemon RNG

But in all honesty pokemon runners have it pretty easy since the reset point is rather early and you can get alot of resets per hour if it comes to that. CoM doesnt pass its last major reset point until nearly an hour in sadly
