chump change dumps a bunch of records

Hey you!!!!!!!

I've been getting records on the main story missions over the last month and I didn't want to keep the routes in the dark. I tried to show the best way to start each run (where to orient the limo & red cars, or where to bunch up the pedestrians in the first Ranger Stacey level) but some might be cut off too early. some of them have the sound glitch from restarting while mid-crash explosion and I didn't know what caused it at the time & I wasn't listening to game audio. I'll put them in story order out of professionalism

Mickey (intro) - https://streamable.com/1ol7q - took the longest out of any record, approx 4 hours total, is so much better with shadows off

Kids - https://streamable.com/dsuja

Coach - https://streamable.com/lns73

Date Guy - https://streamable.com/g5e4h - idk why the audio desynced but if you start the second cutscene as he finishes saying "ruined" you're good

Elizabeth - https://streamable.com/uaajj

Priest - https://streamable.com/vd1jd - -.04 (cut off too soon)

Ronaldo - https://streamable.com/tahdg

Charles Maximillian - https://streamable.com/obski - -.03 but who knows why

Beth (mall ride) - https://streamable.com/iw74d - last one I needed to become Suburb Champ (except for dmv instructor :| )

Ranger Stacey - https://streamable.com/q4tvf - this one left me sour because it's not a Pure style of level

Swedish Tourist - https://streamable.com/7rgi7 - the ledge after the construction site blows to get off safely

Beth (to city) - https://streamable.com/htync

Mickey (to city) - https://streamable.com/mevti

Mickey (to Chinatown) - https://streamable.com/iss6s - lucky end jump, -.01

Charles Maximillian 2 - https://streamable.com/tvpx0 - skip the middle jump by shrinking at the right time & angle, don't think it's a 100% consistent thing

Beth (first Ronaldo challenge) - https://streamable.com/uwrbw - you have a better chance of avoiding the first falling car if you shrink before its uhh spawn plate, also the terrain up is pretty annoying

Danny Stephens - https://streamable.com/oljn4 - note the little wall before the streetlight that has no collision; I didn't bother trying to set up a soccer ball in the goal if that would even work. I did in fact do this the day of the world cup final

Disco Sylvain - https://streamable.com/dlecy - found out if you activate the dive mid-jump you can fall a scooch faster and it can help you line up the limo better. the jump near the shipping container is hard enough without bonking but all this being said this was only -.06 better than a run with a bonk and no sweet dive move

Mickey (rooftops) - https://streamable.com/k39xf - save a jump from the street to the first platform & third platform to the roof. driving off the last roof is rough

Challenge Ronaldo - https://streamable.com/csdhk - squeezing past the tree at the start is a pain, the jumps too; the red car at the bottom of the screen at spawn had just stopped at the other end of the street iirc. didn't realize until I rewatched that you go off-road right when Mickey says to (and shrink to avoid the little bit of terrain jutting out there)

Jeffrey - https://streamable.com/w4pfp - retrying this mission almost always results in crashing because of the uneven terrain

Priest 2 - https://streamable.com/5ihmb - the ending was so nice that I didn't want to bother trying for a third day (jumping after the second coffin lines up the next one better than waiting around). you don't have to shrink at the first spot I bonk, maybe not the second one either, but this guy's missions suck hard to do well. southwest red car at spawn

Not Mickey - https://streamable.com/mub1w - I think this was the first time I noticed how high the ring hitboxes are. shame about the end

Charles Maximillian 3 - https://streamable.com/6eb1h - "work in progress" because I think you can cut out the first jump and maybe even the second and be fine. the propeller for the plane at the right of spawn has to be southwest for most things to line up

Canadian Tourist - https://streamable.com/6kweo - hardest mission in the game!!! not sure if the red cars near the ice northeast of spawn are close enough to judge without getting camera whiplash. innovative jump moves & barrel bounce save my hide

Mickey (to the fairgrounds) - https://streamable.com/264av - first one I ever recorded, hard to tell but the limo looks like \ at the start. I thought I got insanely lucky with two police cars blowing up before I saw the SGDQ run and apparently that's supposed to happen. jump saver

Ranger Stacey 2 - https://streamable.com/n6bir - lucky bonk that didn't lose any time(?). jumping as soon as you can is the key for this and many others as is crossing your eyes and getting through trees

Beth (finale) - https://streamable.com/pukaz - saving the :beth: for last. thought about jumping into the cutscene and wiggling around after somehow but it didn't result in anything. cruel hand of god that gives me the url pukaz

if no one reads this and gets inspired intrigued impressed (and if the videos stay up forever) I'll be happy regardless. this game feels extremely good when things line up and I wish more people knew about it! as buggy as things get and as overshadowing the story and theme are to the speedrun portion of the game (for good reason), there's a really great movement style and finesse to Roundabout that I've had more fun with than any other game (outside of surfing in Counter-Strike: Source). I hope you made it this far to read this: thanks for reading
