I called out sick from work today, I know how you're feeling

Actually, I'll be streaming a run around 10PM EST if you want to tune in. I can beat my PB for sure

I may hop in for a bit, I kind of want to try one more attempt at a decent run tonight

So I have been thinking about it, I love this style of game, and I think once I can get a run under 1:05 I am gonna start focusing on another run (while still keeping practice with this). With the recent release of Spelunky on steam I think that may be my next game.

Well, I've been on pace for a 1:05 a couple times now. One run I forgot the stamina bar after X'Tabay, and then had to pause for a phone call for like... a minute, and still miraculously got a 1:07. So I'm gonna be cutting my time any run now Smiley

That's really awesome, hopefully I'll be well in the next couple days and can break my 1:05

Definitely picking up this game. This is one of my favorite games

Alright. Did some research on Final Calaca. The 2 fastest strats I can think of are the one Jesse mentioned (1-2-3-Olmec-Roll-Repeat), and the other is simply Olmec-Roll over and over, without letting your stamina completely drain. It looks like they're both about the same speed, averaging around 30 seconds depending on luck.

Just had a trash run at 1:28 something. Had to pause for about 30 minutes for the girlfriend call, WSplit didn't want' to cooperate, and I kept dying to stupid stuff.

Bad RNG on yellow skele's too. So annoying. Oh well, tomorrow!

Jesseyo

Also, just to be clear, for Final Calaca it's 1-2-3-Roll-Olmec-Roll-Repeat.

It's much faster doing the roll after 1-2-3

Well, I won't be running for a few days with the happy tails marathon starting today, so hopefully someone will beat my record and give me something to shoot for Smiley

Blazze889

2013-08-16 04:29:47 pm

Well I finally achieved what I was hoping, I got a 1:04:49, I think now that I have gotten a sub 1:05 I can look at running some other games

NiL8r

2013-08-16 04:33:29 pm

Awesome! Now to beat the time and not tell you so don't notice Tongue

I'm assuming you've got the run highlighted?

Blazze889

2013-08-16 04:36:28 pm

Yup, here ya go

I will still be playing and keeping sharp, just not dedicating quite as much time to the game as I have been

Jesseyo

2013-08-16 07:44:41 pm

PB'd just now. 1:14:17

http://www.twitch.tv/asskickingjesse/c/2764024

Going for sub 1:10:00 now

Blazze889

2013-08-17 10:58:16 am

Well I got a new record today, pulled a 1:26 on hard mode, so I guess for now I hold both any% records

NiL8r

2013-08-17 11:07:14 am

Time for 100% Smiley

Blazze889

2013-08-17 11:34:25 am

Yeah I might, I'm broke until next month where I will be picking up either Spelunky or Dust for my next game to learn

Blazze889

2013-08-17 02:35:46 pm

Well I submitted Guacamelee for AGDQ14, now to wait and see if Mike likes it

found this little skip that can save 6 to 7 sec i think

also , i think its possible to skip some fight rooms but not sure how to do it ,
i have skipped the fight in tule tree after you get the double jump twice ! but by accident
so yeah i'm pretty sure there is a way to do it just like the way i skipped jaguar scene , maybe you guys can figure it out

NiL8r

2013-08-18 09:45:47 am

Wow, that's really interesting! How consistently can you get that?

Blazze889

2013-08-18 10:35:15 am

That is really interesting, I think it's going to come down to just finding those hidden sweet spots.

As for Guacamelee at AGDQ, it seems our game is still a bit too new to be big enough to be played, but I won't be giving up and will be trying to get it at later events for sure.

I can't make it to AGDQ, but I'm already saving up for SGDQ. Maybe a race, or ossibly a co-op run?

Blazze889

2013-08-18 10:41:30 am

Well hopefully our game will be doable for SGDQ and if it gets it and I'm able to make it, I think a race would be pretty sweet.
