Took a small break from the Mina the Hollower full-game category of sorts, and ran Unrestricted for a bit, which uses an OoB trick to beat the final boss very early on! This fight is very hard as it's attempted with nearly no upgrades at all. I got a pretty good time for the skill/knowledge I have!

I've been running Mina the Hollower lately and been hard at work routing and practicing along with everyone else. Today I managed to complete my first deathless run! This run is very very hard and complicated, I'm certain this game has a long way to go still.

I've been running VVVVVV lately and got 3rd place just today! This is easily one of my favorite games I've ever run.

I ran Cheetahmen for April Fools... and then got 3 seconds away from the WR, so I decided to run it for one more day to beat it XD so, I am now the proud WR holder in Cheetahmen.

First day back of runs on the vanilla Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, with all its glorious unskippable cutscenes. Was very up and down, but it's good enough for 2nd place on the boards! WR Soon™

My Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky derust is going fairly well, as today I just got a new Personal Best by 5 minutes and new World Record by 4 minutes on the Cutsceneless mod in In-Game Time. I think I might start doing vanilla runs soon :)

This was the most difficult PB I've ever chased in this game, and definitely a contender for one of the hardest across all games I've speedrun. 26:XX in Cuphead Any% 1.1+ done. Planning on running Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky for a bit, then potentially tackling Cuphead 300% :)

New Cuphead WR! Really solid run outside of Captain Brineybeard, who provided the worst possible RNG pattern (+8 seconds over gold). 26:XX™ soon. Hopefully.

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 25/12/2025

I forgot to post my last PB of 27:03, but today I got really close to 26:XX! I got the Devil Freeze on pace, but messed up the opening to the final phase. Still ended up getting a half-second PB :)

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

New Cuphead Any% 1.1+ WR! This was a very solid run outside of a few major time losses (Werner, Phantom, Devil). I am planning on continuing until 26:xx!

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 20/11/2025

Cuphead WR! After a history of getting denied the record due to bad Devils, this time around I got the best Devil pattern (1.8% chance), which allowed this to happen on a more average run. I'm still feeling very motivated to run this, so I will keep going. Thanks everybody for the support.

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 16/11/2025

I got 0.17s away from a new Cuphead WR! It was a fairly solid run throughout and I'm happy to get this PB. If the WR doesn't get improved in the meantime (which is a big if), the next PB will probably be the one to do it :)

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 02/11/2025

Cuphead Any% 1.1+ PB! The record is now 27:12 by Quincely, but I did beat what the record was when I started this grind again a few months ago. This was a very good run throughout, but I got a difficult Spider pattern on The Devil and couldn't close out a good fight with it. Still very motivated!

140

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

Cuphead Any% 1.1+ PB, again! This time, to get it was a mediocre pace into the The Devil that ended up getting one of the best RNG patterns. Happy with my consistency lately!

140

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 22/10/2025

Another small Cuphead Any% 1.1+ PB! This one was once again ahead of the current WR entering The Devil, but got bad RNG once again. Still, I am feeling very good about the rate at which I've been getting good runs going and I feel like what I do have control over has been going pretty well lately :)

151

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 18/10/2025

New Cuphead Any% 1.1+ PB! This was 6 seconds ahead of the current WR of 27:16 entering the final boss, but really bad Spider RNG lost a ton of time. Still, I've had a ton of good attempts lately and getting this PB on top of that feels really motivating.

260

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 01/09/2025

PB'd in Cuphead Any% 1.1+ again! I am now the second person to ever get a 27:2x. I am working on a full-game TAS that I am probably going to spend some time trying to finish now, but I am hoping to continue bringing my time down after that :)

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

Got a new PB in Cuphead Any% 1.1 for the first time since last november! I've been feeling very motivated to run this game again now so hopefully there's more PBs to come :)

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 19/07/2025

Oh hey, that wasn't long after I got one of these myself lol

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

Implemented Level 1 Skip in Gimmick!'s Best Ending WR as well!

130

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Got a 5:09 in Gimmick! Any% :) Very very happy with this run, happy to have brought the category this far!

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

Improved the Gimmick! WR by a few more seconds! This was on pace for 5:0x, but I unfortunately lost a ton of time to Wiz3 (final boss). My goal is not 5:0x, but I'll try to improve this a little more. I'm probably almost done with this category :)

030

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

I got the WR in Gimmick! Any%! This is the first record to include the new and difficult Level 1 Skip that was found a few months ago. It... also includes an 11-second time loss in Level 3 coming from a silly death :)

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 03/01/2025

A secret No*-Checkpoint mode was just discovered in Gimmick! 2! There is a hidden switch in the difficulty select screen under the water. Pressing this switch will remove every checkpoint *with the exception of warp points. Credits to negative_seven for the discovery, this was undocumented prior!.

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Well, this kind of time came... much more quickly than I expected. This is 2nd place on the boards, and only 2 seconds behind the current WR. This comes after about a week of dropping several sub-28 paces. Very, very good run for my standards, but we can do better still :)

030

SBDWolf @sbdwolf.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Hi, I don't expect to be super active here but I will start making some posts here occasionally :) Today I got my first Sub-28 in Cuphead Any% v1.1 (4th place), which over the years became the game's most popular and main category. I am going to be working towards the WR (27:33 atm)!
