Nuclear Throne: Sparky is tired (Previous PB) Master Sparky 2021-04-07 | Cool parts off the top of my head: 1-3 L11 (big bandit tutorial), 2-1 L11, 1-2 L15, 3-1 through 4-1 L17
9D Platinum to Serenity Master Sparky 2025-06-20 | I have no clue how I didn't die at 24:31 and 27:12Unfortunately I instantly threw the low death in Revisit, but I officially have a 1 death of first third now
Nuclear Throne: Ultra Revolver Only 7-1 L2 Master Sparky 2025-05-23 | This challenge is peak Nuclear Throne
Celeste: 9D SMOTS-23 ~ Moonberry-11 deathless* (no major skips) Master Sparky 2025-03-22 | *I do die at 32:21, to a lag spike at precisely the scariest input in True Love (see 37:40), so I personally don't count that. Even if you disagree and think it should count, it's still an insane segment, beating out 7D golden and my Recon-12 9BB PB for my best Celeste deathless run. And I was just warming up, I wasn't even grinding for a deathless segment at all??? What???This run finished as a 4 death from the start of this segment. So now I have Start to SMOTS-7 in 4 deaths, and SMOTS-23 to End in 4 deaths.I'm also now at the point where I'm pretty sure that I want to make a serious attempt at 9DP.
Celeste: 9D Dedication ~ Exploration deathless (FC route) Master Sparky 2025-03-12 | (+ a funny in Curiosity final)I just randomly got this on my third low death of the day??? What the fuck just happened
Celeste: 9D in 44 deaths Master Sparky 2025-02-28 | Next up is to play a bunch of room randomizer to get more consistency on everything at once (while continuing to not play 9BB). Though since I got Dedication and Memories deathless here, maybe I should just go for platinum attempts :Clueless:
Celeste: 9D in 76 deaths Master Sparky 2024-12-21 | Amazing checkpoint 5 and 8, awful checkpoint 12 (3rd most deaths, gg), pretty solid everything else if you ignore that one key room I kept throwing inI mainly wanted to get to sub-100 deaths, so I'll probably actually play 9BB again in a bit

Everlasting Farewell in 1 death Master Sparky 2024-11-30 | Uploading cause some goofy things happened (7:24, 11:16, 13:54, 27:08)Anyway, golden soon
Celeste: 7D Golden Master Sparky 2024-11-13 | 7D has been my favorite Celeste map since I first played it in 2019 and started to go for low deaths in 2020. I gave up back then because I was sure I wasn't good enough to ever get the golden, but I came back to the game this year determined to go for it. Feels crazy that it's done now.3000m deaths: 21, 20x2, 18, 14, 13x2, 10, 8, 2Time: 135:53:57Enjoyment: 11/10Starfruit Summit edit (requires SJ Audio dependencies to be enabled): mega.nz/file/cP4l2QbC#5sOI3T72GInSwtN-zK746ZVZf2KAECQIPrtLHC5h0jE

Nuclear Throne: Direct Loop Zone (Former Melting WR) Master Sparky 2022-03-05 | Fuck it. *Abyssals your Melting*1:38:22Possibly my best Throne run, this is harder than Crystal L19 in every way except mental/endurance.

Nuclear Throne: the nuclear throne... (single damage L18) Master Sparky 2022-02-22 | Wow, Sparky! That was amazing. I always knew you'd get the record back. (A third 7-3 L18 death is real close, I can feel it!!) Best of luck! ; ) ❤️❤️
this owl cant keep getting away with it..... (awful weekly L4) Master Sparky 2022-02-05 | Triggerless, Spiritless, Rhinoless Rebel. This is one of those rare Throne runs where I'd actually recommend watching the entire run without skipping.
Nuclear Throne: What are the chances of getting a perfect set? Master Sparky 2020-12-27 | Today, I found an old Java program I wrote in 2018 to simulate picking mutations in NT, and decided to fix and improve it to finally answer the question: what is really the chance of getting the perfect set of X mutations?Code: pastebin.com/Hic46UKNSpreadsheet to reference: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1i4o1i7OuwRaJ4qOTWx4sph6fy0Ut2X7W4eDWICC-azM/edit?usp=sharing
Celeste: New Farewell B-Side (by Luma) Final Screen/Moon Berry Master Sparky 2020-12-24 | Map link: gamebanana.com/maps/210887Final screen is pretty good except the jellyvator and button press right at the end, moon berry screen is fun even though it's inconsistent to play.
Celeste: Midnight Aquarium (by RamenTwig) in 18 deaths (13:40) Master Sparky 2020-12-23 | Map link: gamebanana.com/maps/211644Midnight Aquarium is a fun but honestly pretty frustrating map to play for low deaths. Most of the screens are the type where you either get it on the first try, or end up taking multiple ridiculous deaths on it. The final screen can be a pretty bad choke point, but it isn't that bad now that I learned I was doing the traffic block wall bounce part wrong. I might go for better runs on this at some point, but it would require me getting way more consistent at checkpoint 3-5.
Celeste: Nanos Nightmare (by OkNano) All Silvers Master Sparky 2020-12-01 | Great map pack to spend a few hours on, all the maps were pretty fun to deathless too except for Below Zero (because of the weird setups and dumb last jump). Runs are ordered from easiest to hardest in my opinion.0:00 - "easy!"1:30 - Hell(ish)4:05 - Motion Grotto6:16 - Below Zero7:38 - Fatal Exception9:03 - Ending
Celeste: 5b_garbage_version.bin (by Monika) Clear Master Sparky 2020-11-28 | This was created by Moni a little over a year ago, to troll someone who wanted a troll map of 5B (I know). Unsurprisingly, no one ever really tried to progress on it since then. But after playing the new remake "7Duff", I remembered this map and decided to give it a shot, then I accidentally got decently far and decided to commit to clearing the whole thing.This is harder than 9D in my opinion. While much shorter, I found it way more mentally draining to play, especially towards the end of the map. The tape room also probably would've taken me about as long as the 9D final room if I didn't use save states to lab out the different sections. Also, everything would have been far harder if I didn't have plenty of experience with the base gameplay by playing 7D for low deaths. So this pretty much puts it at the 2nd-4th hardest legitimately cleared map (I'm not sure how hard 3L and Atone actually are).Moni stated that she didn't test any of the gameplay, and wouldn't have been surprised if there were some impossible rooms. The closest it gets is the section at 17:34. 7:24 and 8:32 are also pretty funny.A couple other notes:- Flags 21 and 6 also softlock the game on spawn like flag 25 does. I just debugged back to the previous flag when that happened. Moni also confirmed that it wasn't intended to happen on those two flags, so I don't feel too bad about doing that.- The 1000m orb room has wind blowing to the right for the whole room, if you didn't notice.- The 2500m orb room has a blade cycling back and forth at the very top of the room after the last boost, which killed me once.- Sorry about the audio in the 1000m orb room and 2000m room 2, I took the clips from my Twitch footage, and a couple minutes of each VOD got muted for some reason.
Celeste: Hakoniwa Adventure (by Fishtank) Golden Strawberry Master Sparky 2020-10-17 | Pretty chill golden, comparable to the mid-late B-side goldens in vanilla. Fun map too, though as you can see here, it's pretty easy if you don't go for the red berries.
東方自鏡山 ~ Reflection EX-Side. Master Sparky 2020-09-09 | 「Confronting Myself」 History: 01/167A pretty cool Celeste avoidance/shmup-style stage. Only complaint is that the fourth attack (0:36-0:51) is noticeably harder/has more BS potential than the rest of the battle.Mod by Ythundyth: gamebanana.com/maps/211931
Geometry Dash: Acropolis 100% Master Sparky 2020-08-28 | Good level, even though I died on the last cube 3 times
Celeste: Extended Variants Randomizer Any% Highlights Master Sparky 2020-05-24 | Pretty funny mod, though some of the combinations are just outright impossible and require rerolling the modifiers. Also the game crashed once in 2A, not sure why.
Final Goodbye: True Ending Master Sparky 2020-05-22 | Last room of the golden checkpoint in 9D. The ending was updated recently, so I'm not sure if there are any uploads of this version of the room.
「Final Goodbye」 Master Sparky 2020-05-09 | 9D done. My clear of the final room, featuring the two checkpoints you can get in it. This room took me about 9 hours to beat, the first 6 were me learning the first half to reach the checkpoint at 2:38. This part is quite fun to play once you know what you're doing, but the same can't be said for the second half, which uses intentionally awful level design and a terrible troll camera that gave me a headache. There's another checkpoint if you fall into the pit and die at 5:25, but I'm not really sure what the point of it is, since if you die after 5:40, you intentionally lose all your progress and get reset all the way to the beginning of the room (happened to me once when I failed the last wall bounce). Unfortunately because of those terrible design choices and trolls after the power box, I pretty much ended up not having any fun for the last 3 hours the room took me, which is a shame since it's the last experience I had with 9D. (So if I seem really salty in the audio, that's why.)Twitch highlight: twitch.tv/videos/615353911
Celeste: Epilogue D Golden Strawberry Master Sparky 2020-05-03 | Took me longer than 2D to get, since the last 4 rooms are terrible.
Celeste: Site D Golden Strawberry Master Sparky 2020-05-02 | Realized I didn't have this when I was playing some more 3D and 7D today, so I decided to spend an hour quickly getting it. (Featuring me bitching about the 7D flag 2 watchtower)Twitch highlight: twitch.tv/videos/609045884
