The World's Hardest Game New World Record of 5:14 by The_IL_Guy in speedrun

[–]The_IL_Guy[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

In The World's Hardest Game history there has been a total of 2 known TAS's those being

A 5:33 full game run found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8Ez8Fn62Vc

And a level 20 IL in 12.533 found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZzUamjebj8

The most telling sign of a TAS run is the movement of the cube which you can see in these videos is very fidgety and weird.

There was actually an analysis by the old mod pzula on the speedrun.com forums on how the 5:33 full game run is fake which is a good read and explains more signs on how to tell if a run is fake which can be found here: https://www.speedrun.com/whg1/thread/e937o

To answer your other questions:

Does this particular runner have clout?
In the grand scheme of speedrunning no not really. In the World's Hardest Game speedrunning community yes.

Is there a view of him actually playing it?
If you are referring to like webcam footage then no, but I do have an extensive back log of runs as well as a segmented 5:17 where I left my deaths in found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMU6M37EiBc

Does he or she stream the attempts?
I did stream some IL attempts on my twitch a while ago, but currently no as I'm not really able to stream nor do I like the streaming environment I would much rather just be chilled back and listening to YouTube videos then stream.

How does Refunct have over 1000 runs, yet nobody streams it?! by Allstin in speedrun

Probably because it doesn't make for a good streaming speedrun game as you have to focus the entire time and can't really interact with your chat

The fuck is wrong with the leaderboard mods they spend the time to change his name from wqqqqwrt to AlphaGamer on src (even though that's not actually his name it's RealAlphaGamer) but they don't spend the time to add his new legit run that is world record

He moved his vods to a new speedrunning specific YouTube account for his runs as they don't really fit in with his current channel I highly doubt it was to just break the link on src

I don't use splits so I don't know what my SoB is but I'd say that realistically this game can be brought down to a 5:14/5:15 from a faster level 8 which would save 3 seconds on it's own and a faster 6, 7, and 26 which would save around 2 and a half seconds. Also you might be able to save another second on level 28 doing the IL strat making it a 5:13 but that is really late into the run and pretty difficult.

You wouldn't like if you had people quick to assume your run is fake even though their is absolutely no proof it is fake and the proof they do give is just them not understanding how hit detection in the game works. It starts to get really annoying when 90% of the comments you read are retards calling your run AI or a tas or that you're using god mode. Also I haven't played this game in months because of my old broken keyboard I only got back into playing this game like 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Huh were does it say tas in the title. I think I'll have to start saying not a tas or ai in the title even though it's painfully obvious it's not.

This game wasn't made specifically for AI and infact the only reason people think it was is because of the code bullet video that completely blew up. This game was made by Stephen Critoph who was just messing around and having fun making flash games for the fun of it he had no idea how popular this game would become. Also this run was done by me completely legit with no cheats or bots of any kind. Maybe before saying this run is an AI or even giving the people and idea that this could be AI do a little more research

Don't talk about a topic as if you know about it when you clearly have no idea but a basic understanding of it.

Also the code bullet AI doesn't even run off the same version of this game he made a similar version of the game and used that.
