Non-binding.
@Zorlock-Oakbite you can have admin/owner if you want, I'm not planning to do much with the design
Bad, shows the locations of all the collectables though. Would be a big time save if there's a way to avoid waiting for the enemy at 9:30 to turn around.
Here's my progress on Master Janitor difficulty so far: . I haven't beaten the first boss yet but I've come close. The video has quite a lot of mistakes but I think it's a good route.
However the bounty category isn't any%, it's 100%, so I'm wondering what exactly is required. I've found the following potential collectables (excuse the names):
- Piles of dirt
- Shiny brooms
- Magic spells
- Big hearts
Which of these are required and are there any other necessary items? I see double jump is in the rules which is required to beat the game but I'm not sure where the other ones come from.
While some levels in Puffle Launch are likely dead, others have known improvements or are frames away from an untied. I am posting this to keep a record of which levels are the closest to being improved.
I made a mod of the game which has all levels, the timer, turbo mode and slow motion unlocked from the start, and tracks centiseconds. If you want the file ask me on the Discord server. Note that it is not valid for submitted runs.
The game rounds all times, so to cut a full second you must get below x.50. So x.54 is two frames away from untied, x.58 three frames, and so on.
Level 4: 13.58. Very possible if a balloon bounce can be cut from the ending.
Level 5: 4.54. Still can't beat 4.54 after many dupes. A different bounce may be possible.
Level 8: 8.5. I don't know if this run had any imperfections.
Level 12, 24, 36: All boss levels, not heavily optimised.
Level 13: 8.5 (not recorded).
Level 14: Bounce from the last anvil into the catapult is possible, likely saving a second.
Level 19: Very long and difficult level, under a minute is certainly doable. Panda has posted a slightly faster start.
Level 20: See the videos here. Last shot is very precise but combining the runs should save 2 seconds.
Level 21: A second faster with a single bounce on the penultimate balloon.
Level 22: Not well optimised.
Level 33: A couple of bounces can be done first try saving a few seconds.
Level 34: A few bounces on the boxes can be saved.
Level 35: Flying straight into the goal is possible and may cut a second depending on how low the decimal of the current WR was.
The release date is listed as 2009, it is apparently 2006 or 2007 though. Nov 8 2006 was Window Vista's manufacturing release. Jan 30 2007 was the consumer release.
This is assuming the Vista version is the same. I didn't actually know that it came with Vista before just now.
Made this a couple of weeks ago but forgot to post it. Gets to the elevator game in under 2 seconds.
The site staff have said that CPO will be merged into this board. CPO uses a newer version of Club Penguin so most of the categories there cannot be run on CPR.
-
I don't want CPO to be added as an accepted CPPS because of its issues with other CPPSs (if you were around for CPR's shutdown earlier this year, you might know a bit about this). I think all of the mods agree with me on this.
-
I don't want to "destroy" the CPO leaderboard and all of its categories. While "Death%" hopefully does not survive, I can see what appears to be some valid categories on the leaderboard. I think some of the mods find all the categories silly though.
I have made some category changes and additions since becoming mod.
The minigame categories were moved from ILs to misc full-game because currently, a subcategory can only be applied to every IL. The minigames now have subcategories of All Levels, All Coins, All Silver Medals, and All Gold Medals.
All Medals does not require completing the levels as it is not required to earn the medal. All Gold Medals is part of 100% runs, and All Silver Medals is just because it makes sense to have with Gold Medals.
All Coins is as the name implies, but I'm not sure if the category should require completing the levels. The game doesn't appear to differentiate between winning and losing a level other than the end screen saying "Game Over" or "Game Complete".
Amazing Maze's medals categories include "no completion glitch", meaning the glitch where you exit the level and earn the amount of coins from your last successful level is not allowed (because then the category would be starting and exiting immediately 8 times). This also means you can't exit the levels early and legitimately get the medal.
Aqua Rescue doesn't have All Levels because it's an autoscroller (as far as I can tell), and no All Coins because there is no in-game max given, although there is a max amount of coins possible to earn.
On his Twitch page, DerplingDiamond claims a time for EPF HR of 38:52. When I asked him about the run, he said he didn't record it, which is understandable considering it's DS.
Unfortunately Derpling died in June last year (see here) (Edit: Tweet is gone, see here instead)
Due to his runs of All Missions on the Web version of Club Penguin, I find his EPF and EPF HR runs believable (and the fact that I got a 39:08 yesterday). The main point of this post is that the 38:52 is the run I have generally been comparing myself to, and the run I reference in the submission text of my 39:08, rather than the runs currently on the leaderboard
I can't get this to work most of the time and I don't know why, but if done fast it might save time because you usually have to wait a few seconds while the screen shakes.
Clips stolen from Alaska (Tennis, Baseball), Jimmy (Baseball, Bowling, Boxing), TheLaggingGamer (Bowling) and travispercent (Golf).
I could have used a -7 for Golf but I didn't because no human has done that and I may as well make a TAS if I do that. There's a few other things that could have maybe been edited for a better time.
There's some time gained and lost from the splices, it should add up to longer time rather than shorter. Also the Baseball exit is before Mercy Rule because I couldn't be bothered changing it.
Any% should not ban glitches, so glitch% runs should be eligible for any%, and current any% runs should be in a Glitchless or No Tack Shooter Glitch category.
Chapter 2:
When getting the crystal sound projector, stay quite far left and you avoid the "red crystal" cutscene. Then get a red crystal, put out the upstairs fire, get a blue crystal (or 6 if your aim's bad), and go back downstairs.
You can also skip the "blue crystal" cutscene here by shooting at the blue face through the fire. It's slightly hard to hit but you can get pretty close since staying left doesn't apply when you're not close to the white machine (I think).
Also when "Circuit Complete" appears at the end of the minigame, you can pause and resume to save a second or two. I'm still looking for any other skips from pausing.
This is common for some other games, and Club Penguin certainly has a lot of useless glitches. I'll start with sled cloning:
edit: test
I'm trying to record my screen but having difficulty. I can't use the following options:
- Built-in screen recorder because my device doesn't support iOS 11
- QuickTime because it doesn't work with Windows
- A screen recorder that uses AirPlay, because I need WiFi to be off to avoid getting adds in the app
So the two solutions would either be an alternative way to remove adds in the app, or a way to record the screen without WiFi. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Not recorded because it's annoying to do, but I think mobile may be faster.
I think there is a way to save time using the navigation machine (or whatever it's called) when the distance to the next cube is five or less. You can move the direction halfway through the cycle. The only problem is timing it right, which needs to be worked on.
Also there's a small skip at the start: Press Start, then settings, then continue.
