i'm planning on doing kirby squeak squad as my first speed demo. may be a bad decision, because of the portable issue, but i read the guidelines and it seems feasible. plus i love the game.
Thread title:  
If you are doing this run now,thaan you won't get that much help than,necause the game just came out within the past two week if I'm not mistaken.I'm not trying to discourage you,it's just i'm just being sure you know that you'll have to do alot of planning yourself.I plan on getting this game for Christmas,so if I can find something when I get it,I'll be sure to let you know.Well, good luck on any progress you make!

Are you going to do all 120 chests?  Or just the minimal 5 stars needed to get to the final levels?

I can't remember my 120 chest time (I did it on extra which has a timer) but it was around 1:30.  I'll get an exact time later.

Good luck!

Dude, if you're going to do all the secret levels, why the heck wouldn't you just go all the way to 100%?

cause getting all the chests is a pain. plus, if i get all the chests, that means that i need to get MANY of the copy abiliies that the developers want me to get. there are many spots where you have to have iron or wheel or animal just to get that one chest. it slows me down and messes up what ability i have/get. in many cases i would have to use a slow ability(not fire or wheel or anything else fast) throughout a whole level. i just want to do all the levels, which is why i said  secret levels included. also, i think there are some skill scrolls that i want to get to help boss battles in the secret levels.

edit: up to level 4 with 31:49 with too many mistakes. i lost tons of powerups that speed me up midlevel, so i had to finish the level, go to a previous level, get them, and quit that level. this was with extra mode. updated strat.

I don't think SDA will allow you to do that as a category. I think you'll only get a 100%, or an any% (in which case all you need to do is get to the end of the game, without bothering with the secret levels). They can't be expected to work a run for every combination.
Fucking Weeaboo
Agreed.  Either just go for the 5 chests for stars and all the boss chests, or go for it all.

Personally, I'd actually rather see the later.  Most Kirby games are just more fun going for everything!
Ilikepies
ok fine. you got me. i'll do 100%.
So,why will the first Kirby Squeak Squad run be %100? I think the opener for a certain catagory should start with a low,or any %,but it's your choice,not mine!

Also,how do you plan to record this run?Jist wondering.

On that note,good luck!
how do you get the third treasure chest for the world 6 extra level Huh? i need 2 no
Ilikepies
i don't think i'll be doing this for quite a while, so if you wanna do it, go ahead. i'll tell you what i know. also, don't look forward to it.

Would SDA accept a speedrun if you end up going into (or through) walls?

I ask this question because I found a way to get into a wall, though it involves Ghost Kirby and I'm not exactly positive on why it works; I'm experimenting with it in different ways to see if there's any way I could abuse this to fly through levels.
I love YaBB 1G - SP1!

It depends on what happens when you go through the walls. If you're simply going through walls to get to different areas on the screen I think that won't be a problem. However, if you leave the boundaries of the world (in this case, going through walls and going somewhere unexpected) and suddenly teleport to an unexpected place, that wouldn't be acceptable.

I believe that's the way the rules would work? Although I'm not an official so take my thoughts with a grain of salt.


I should mention that I have this game and have played through. No speedrun attempt, though, but if I see anything being said wrong here I might be able to mention something...

No, no random teleporting involved, just traveling in a wall from one point to another in the same map.

Don't know which one you're referring to, but I'll list all 3.

1 - Use wheel to get to the bottom before the treasure chest is blocked off

2 - In the room with the waterfall, stay against the left wall. When you land on the 2 ice cubes, just slide or use a power or whatever to get rid of them. In the door, kill the yellow Waddle Dee before he gets away.

3 - Fight Spinni in the last room for the treasure chest
