GlitchCat7 wished me good luck on this run so I dedicated my next attempt to him. Ended up getting a sub 20 lmao")

We did it. Now I just gotta get the sub-hour 100% run :)
This was pretty much the same as the last run except I didnt die in the second to last level.")

A few neat tricks in this one, but nothing too insanely technical
Theres a triple bounce off the tip network sign on the first planet. You can only utilize this sign in this mission and the secret star, since the tip network doesnt appear in the speedrun nor green star. You can cross the long-jump gap 0.5x (or rather 0x, since youll already be holding A from the backflip up the huge spinning coin) as Luigi, but not as Mario. This doesnt matter for GS1 though, since thats apparently possible 2x with both bros anyway.
However, BillyWAR may have found out you might be able to crystal float off the feet of the dizzy giant goomba at the start, which could really revolutionize this stage.
I didnt know you could just walk along the edge of the blocks to avoid the Thwomps until trying it. Sick.
The next three planets are pretty free, just dodging coins and using airspins to get to the end of the sections.
Last up is the actual wiggler planet. Im pretty sure its possible to do 0.5x (remember, this is held from jumps earlier in the stage) without the wiggler bouncing, but I wasnt gonna pass up an opportunity to swag this hard. I tried triple bouncing off the last row of wigglers to save the A press from jumping off the pole, but I just couldnt get the height for it.")

Collab with BillyWAR (he did the star grab)
Turns out sliding with Yoshi is still really busted.
He had this to say about the experience:
Im trying to figure out how to get this game to recognize that this coin exists. Ok no, its-it is updating the coin. Like its doing operations on the coin that makes sense, so the game recognizes that a coin is here, the question is why cant I pick it up. Its still treating that coin as if its hitting the ground. Instruction hgggrrbbrr destruction. Ok Im gonna assume there are some more pointers are at play here or something or balls. Wait a second...Huh? Am I blind? Am I blind or am I stupid? Huuuuh, whats going on here? Trying to do a little bit of a gamer play. Okay. What is happening here. Doin a little thing here and whats the next one. A-2-3-CCCC! No! Ok god, I cant go through the entire memory of the entire game, that seems excessive. Ok theres actually quite a few things I must set up. 9-6-5-8. So only this matters...Maybe something in here is like the model for this thing, that would be pretty crazy...
What a card.")

You can grab pullstars with B in SMG2, so thats pretty sick.
Pretty easy level except for that one ledge at the beginning of the second planet. For some reason, your momentum will sometimes just vanish in that area. I think the pipe on the wall has something to do with it since if you spin below it, the airspin will let you keep traveling backward fast as youd expect, Also, you can hit your head on the vertical part so that can also just ruin your momentum.
Only took about 2 hours to do, probably wouldve just taken 1.5 if I wasnt insistent on getting the Topmini snipes.")
