Haelian published a video a week or so ago setting out the probabilities for why it was so unlikely that this difficulty configuration would ever be beat: https://youtu.be/S-VUzcJHWF0
Which of course was taken as a challenge, with runner Jade clearing heat 64 yesterday, using an unseeded and unmodded run: https://youtu.be/0mo-kXjasZs
(For context, the seed is the way a particular run is generated, and players can meticulously generate seeded runs to ensure certain things do or don’t spawn by taking very specific sets of actions. Dying and respawning - rather then reloading from the menu, which is quicker - resets the seed. That’s why challenge runs always start with a death and respawn to show that a pre-configured seed isn’t being carried over from previous runs.)
Here’s Haelian’s reaction to the whole situation: https://youtu.be/5L7_3MrG_08
Insanely impressive, and I don’t know if we’ll get to see it again.
Website has a link to a Reddit post which is just a link to YouTube. How many jumps did I need to make to watch the video at the source?😂
Aren’t all the videos linked directly from OP’s post?
I think he was just criticizing the journal website not op
Yeah, OP’s videos in the posts were the exact ones I would have linked. Go watch those.
Haelian’s reaction is more informative than just being an average reaction video, because he describes the decision making in the choices Angel1c made.
