Sidney600SR | SMSR - Swinging Through the Clouds - 0x A Presses @sidney600sr | Uploaded May 2017 | Updated October 2024, 58 minutes ago.
I collect "Swinging Through the Clouds" using no A Presses!
This is possible because we can use the bee near the whomp to get up to the crazy box. Once we are there, we simply use the crazy box to bounce up to a much higher point. Luckily for us, there are exactly two enemies up here, and we are going to use both of them. We first manipulate the goomba to fall down so we can use him to get up to the higher point, then we use the bee up here to knock us off the little beanstalk. All in all pretty fun strat!

This one only brought me relief, its a surprisingly painful golden strawberry, because the chapter itself is actually so easy, but its sooo long, meaning there is such a high probability of impatience. I didnt actually need that many attempts once I started focusing on not getting impatient, but the nerves man, they started showing up about 10 minutes in, with like 4 minutes to go. Im just glad this one is over so I never have to touch summit again (for goldens anyways).
This one is probably not worse than 7B, but it requires a completely different type of nerve control, which is why I rate this one as more difficult than 7B.")

One day I felt like playing through 7B again, and I was surprised at how easy 0m, 500m, 1000m and 2000m and 2500m felt at the time. I then thought: Hey, wait a second, I think I could actually get this. But 13 hours of attempts, was way more than I had expected lol. But I got it!!
Its funny actually, I had been stuck on 192 berries for ages, and I thought for sure this one would be the 201th, but hey, I guess sometimes you have to jump the gun.")

I Collect the star Door Knocking using 1 A Press. This is possible because we clone the star from below and never need to go back up to grab the star!
Thanks a lot to Pannenkoek2012 for finding a setup that works for the star cloning. I was having a lot of trouble with VS values in order to clone the star in the end, but Pannenkoek2012 figured out that if you collect a coin with the right timing after Mario has grabbed the last secret, you can create particles that will induce the correct VS needed for Mario to be holding the star.

The A presss purpose is as follows:
To jump from the bush to the top of the toy castle in order to get to a secret.

Compared to 7B golden, this is quite the cakewalk in comparison. No chokes this time! The main level I really am not looking forward to is 8B, cause that one actually seems like actual heck to get, but not going for that now, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A still remain (and farewell of course).")
