After taking a nice long break I\u2019m ready to get back into the swing of things. However, I realized I didn\u2019t want to completely torment myself this time around so I decided to do a more light hearted challenge. This time I\u2019m going to be doing a speedrun of my favorite 2D Mario game, Super Mario World. To be more specific, I\u2019m going to be doing an 11 exit glitchless run, which means I\u2019ll be beating the game by clearing the game by doing the absolute minimum number of levels. Luckily I\u2019ve been playing this game since I was in elementary school, so I have more than a few years under my belt. I know speedrunning is on a whole other level when compared to casually knowing the game like the back of your hand, so I know I shouldn\u2019t set my expectations too high. Personally I have always wanted to give a real speedrun a try, but I\u2019ve always been intimidated by the low times and how many of my favorite games are either mastered to the point of near perfection or they are games that are simply too long for me to want to sit down and run. The only exception that really comes to mind is Cadence of Hyrule, but that\u2019s because every run is always a bit different so it\u2019s fun. Overall I would say that Super Mario World is a game that is both fun from a casual perspective and a speedrunning perspective and I would recommend playing this classic if you haven\u2019t played it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
