i always feel a certain pride when i find a new skip/strat (even though i'm usually the only one speedrunning the games i run), so i guess there's that

I'm pretty proud of the work I've done routing Zork I and bringing my time down.

I am proud of my accomplishments in the main game that I run, Super Mario 63 (which is in my opinion the best flash game there is, I strongly recommend it). I am proud of both the times that I achieved and the strategies that I discovered that helped us push the game closer and closer to its breaking point.

My IL record in Cuphead (Cagney, Highest Grade) https://www.speedrun.com/cuphead/individual_levels - to be on this list is an honor. Untied, no less!

This IL world record for a level in Gravity Shift, which took me more hours of attempts than i'd like to admit. https://www.speedrun.com/roblox_gravity_shift/run/ylvr7w2m

My proudest achievement by far is my mobility world record. I love this game so much, and I've spent hundreds of hours practicing and running this game. Out of all my thousands of attempts, this is my fastest run yet, and it's extremely clean. I usually do much shorter runs than this, so getting a near perfect run in a longer and more difficult game is something I will always be proud of.

I got a 1:24 time in frog king. This run is perfect, and without a new strat the time will never be beaten by more thank a couple tenths of a second (and getting a faster run would be very hard). I only have a screenshot of my time, but I do have video proof of a low 1:25 time.

I broke an almost 2 year world record in super blue boy planet. This took a lot of time and I'm happy with it. Only mistake was missing a hard strat in level 17 which cost me a second.

I tied the world record in the brutally hard demon castle any% category. The game is very RNG heavy, and almost all of my runs died very early in the game. On the occasion I did manage to make it past the start, my run would die to the very difficult fast bridge cycle, which requires 2 frame perfect jumps and a third very tight jump. After all of that, I have to one cycle the final boss while nervous. Super happy I was able to finish the run.
