Co-op S3&K is becoming a thing! werster and I completed this run on stream, which werster timed at 33:10: http://www.twitch.tv/mike89sda/b/335269391

Still plenty of room for improvement, but I can see us submitting something around the 30 minute mark. We'll probably keep doing it anyway because it's an absolute riot to play this way. Cheesy

Co-op S3K run? Sweet. I'll have to watch that later. Keep up the great work!
Make it so.

They are, and it is possibly the most entertaining thing that has ever been on twitch.

I watched the linked run and it is hilarious and very impressive. I've had conversations like that with my brother while playing games. How often were you two switching controllers?
I think it's pretty safe to say that if there were anything purely luck-based, it would be werster territory, based on the commentary for the old Pokemon run.  But everything in this game is execution-based, no matter how ridiculous.
Have you done the Mushroom Hill 1 level wrap?

Don't even talk to me!!
Yes, I've tried it.  I've even managed to not get crushed once - although I did get stuck in the wall.  Nevertheless, the tricks "merely" require precise input, so I am technically, if not practically, correct.  Believe me, I know what the zips are like - the only one I can hit with any sort of consistency is Hill Top 1 in Sonic 2, and that one is easy.  Besides, as I'm sure you could tell, I was joking. Tongue

But Tiberius was absolutely correct; you two running, and especially streaming coop is absolute gold.  If you don't include the twitch audio (or pull a tiki and record live commentary in some other way), that would be criminal.  I can't wait to see the finished product.  Based on what you Englishmen Aussies have done to other games, I have the utmost confidence that you will stupefy the masses.  Good luck (even if you don't "technically" need it)!

Oh you didn't! That's utterly hilarious, I can just imagine the looks of horror on your faces.

EDIT: Also, AlecK47; the MH1 level wrap requires sub-pixels to be lined up right (or something) and as there is no way of doing that via input, it is technically luck based.

That screen locks so fast when you do the last hit...  I'm sure that's happened to many players, casual or speedrunning. Best of luck.
Yeah, Tiberius, I'm aware that I was skating on thin ice with that technicality.

Also, ouch on that death.  I've had some painful ones, but never so close to the end.

Feast your eyes on this fantastic death: http://www.twitch.tv/mike89sda/c/1727390

One of these days, we'll get a pretty sweet improvement. Probably 30:xx, though if we can get to 29 that'd be amazing.
SEGA Junkie
Meagre improvement, but improvement nonetheless: http://www.twitch.tv/mike89sda/c/1734746

This run contains FIVE unintentional deaths. The ridiculous thing is that LB2 is still faster that way... not sure if we'd try it in a serious attempt as it does, after all, require two frame perfect inputs at high speed, with only one shot at both.

"Man this'll be hilarious if this is a good run and it starts with THAT" - mike89, before the run even begins.

Anyway, 30:15. Mushroom Hill 1 was ass as ass can ass, and Lava reef 2 wall took a sonic minute. So can prob knock this down to a 28, but this did include Launch Base 2 so whether it actually will is a different story
Look at this big thread!  I feel obligated to post something here.

You guys should buy new carts and keep the co-op going until you destroy this category once and for all.

I've been playing S3&K since S&K was released and I've never seen that happen before. Best of luck. I've been enjoying the co-op runs.
I can't shake the mental image of Tails surreptitiously shoving Sonic off a ledge now.  Or throwing him into lava NSMB Wii style.  #betrayal type deal.  I really hope you include a blooper reel with the final run, because it should end up (who am I kidding, it probably already is) right up there with the best of them.

Keep at it!

Well, that didn't take long. Less than an hour and a half into our first stream back, 30:05.

The good:
* Pretty much all the level wraps went flawlessly, including...
* Mushroom Hill 1 FIRST GO. 39 is ridiculous here.
* Really good Death Egg 1 boss fight, which is always a danger.

Biggest mistakes:
* Marble Garden 1, missed 1 round kill (4-5 seconds)
* Flying Battery 1, entering the wall took forever (12 seconds)
* Sandopolis 2, Tails just REFUSED to catch Sonic on a really long fly upwards, resulting in the loss of the lightning shield (15 seconds plus assorted lightning shield benefits)
* Hidden Palace, missed Knuckles quick kill, had to do it normally (15 seconds)
* Death Egg 2, only unintentional death on the one-frame lightning jump. We did get this second go though. (29 seconds)

Add to that the bullshit Launch Base 2 level wrap and you're looking at over two minutes of improvements. But, um... good luck. Both of us agree this run is submittable on the condition we don't do anything better in the meantime.

Sub 30 or reject. Wink
30:05, as in, not sub 30.

I'll say right now that I'll verify and reject this if you don't improve.

Just saw the run. Awesome job from the two of you. I also agree that this run is very submittable.

You guys need a well deserved break from speed running for a while. Tongue
