SMB Speedrunning
Posted: 29 Apr 2020, 01:55Hello! This is the forum for speed running any SMB game. Currently, you can only speedrun SMB1 and SMB: The Lost Levels, both as any%. However, the full SMB3, SMB and SMB: The Lost Levels warpless speed runs will be available soon (Around 2 Weeks). So feel free to post your speed runs here or you can contact me and tell me the time of your run. There are a few rules to speed running though. The rules are that in levels like 1-2 and 4-2, you cannot hold sprint when entering the pipe that takes you to the underground area. This is because normally, the game would do that for you. You are also not able to use glitches and must hit blocks that usually start invisible until you hit them. Keep in mind that only applies if you are using that block. Also remember to hit the bottom of the vine ladders if you wish to climb them during a speedrun. Another rule is that there should be extra time added to your score if you finish a level on a 3 or a 6 (The ones digit). This is because fireworks display on those digits and slow down your time. If you want to compare an SMB run to the NES version, make sure to add 65.36 seconds to make up for loading times. And yes, I measured the loading times in-between levels in Kosmicd12's world record run. Please do not fake any runs and make sure to be nice to others.
