Flips_BadHoly hell this level! First off, huge shoutouts to Failstream for finally uploading this level. He started building in November and after 481 hours of attempts he uploaded just a few days ago. Congrats man, you're crazy. I recreated the level in the middle of July and began practicing it, and after it was uploaded I started attempts. After a total of 72 hours, I beat it and got first clear! It feels amazing. I love this level, it's so fun and well designed, and unquestionably one of, if not, the hardest cape level in Mario Maker! As of September 2, 2017 FF3's clear rate is 1/19,647. I'm gonna take a nice break from Mario Maker for a few weeks. Also, shoutouts to Fastreaderz, who got several nais before he had to leave for PAX. There's a 50/50 chance he would've gotten first clear if he didn't go, but hopefully he gets second clear when he gets back. You're awesome Fast! So, thanks for watching, and GG Fail for uploading!

This series changed the trajectory of my life forever. I'm really glad I got to be there when it ended, playing alongside my wonderful partner. Thank you to everyone for all the games over the years. Stay fresh c:mod cape by tjb (RTA clear)Flips_Bad2024-03-15 | this was a very fun one! wasn't too bad compared to the atelier umar dlc. if anything this would probably be a good training level for umar go to bed.
this was actually my second time clearing this level. i was on a voice call the first time and wanted a clean clear vid. i was not expecting to get the moon and the clear on the same attempt tho. it's wild to me that that happened lol.
this level is way harder than it looks btw. there's a lot of parity manipulation in it to keep track of. you start with even speed after the stickyfly, and you need to switch it to odd so you can get 1 speed for the 2 tile climb, while also tracking your mod 4 parity to make sure you don't get locked into 3 speed when trying to back up. then you need to get back to even speed to fall in the one tile gap with 0 speed. and finally you need to switch back to odd speed while yoshi flying so you can get the 1 speed you need for the final climb. parity manipulation while yoshi flying sure is something else lol.
i'm proud of how quickly i beat this the first time, took a little bit over an hour but not sure exactly how long. either way it's a really well designed level and tjb is an amazing creator and player. be sure to check him out here:

Incredibly fun hack, I really enjoyed playing it. This is undoubtedly the hardest cape hack I've ever played and I'm so glad I was able to beat it.
Apologies for the inconsistent audio, it gets better after the first half. My setup is very scuffed. Flashing lights warning starts at 14:26 and ends at 18:57.
The final room alone took me 14 and a half hours, which is almost exactly how long the entire rest of the hack took me. Shoutouts to everyone who supported me when I played this. Shoutouts to AmetrineRose for editing together the clears for me :3

smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=35861SCP Containment Breach will always be the best horror game in my heartFlips_Bad2023-01-23 | ...Hackers Dreams RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-08-30 | This is definitely one of the most difficult things I've ever achieved. I wanna start this with a shoutout to anonymousbl00dlust for making this helluva hack over the span of a decade. It was designed to blur the line between what is human viable and TAS only, and I think it did just that. The last level, 1f9, and especially the final boss, are probably among the hardest RTA viable rooms out there. And somehow, the hack was still immensely fun to play throughout it all.
This hack has always been an insurmountable mountain looming on the edge of the horizon for me. I had heard whispers of it when I first got into romhacking, of a hack in the making so hard that it was unlike anything before it. When I started getting a foothold into cape, I heard of pipe dream. The level released as a demo that was being cited as one of the hardest cape levels of the time. I wasn't sure if I'd ever beat it, but I had to try. And I pushed through. It was a level so uniquely designed that it inspired my own levels for years to come.
Not long after beating it, I heard rumors of savestate sanctuary, a new level anon had finished that was a mile above. I didn't know if I could ever beat it. But when I saw anon attempting to beat the last room himself, it became a new challenge I hoped to one day get past. I offered to playtest it and 2 years ago I cleared the first 2 rooms. I was unable to beat the others back then. Anon asked me to test the final, hardest room in June. I wasn't able to beat it RTA, but I managed it in 2 segments. I didn't think I could ever beat it. Then he asked if I could test 1f9, a level even harder. Seeing the boss for the first time, I didn't think *anyone* would ever beat it. But after spending some time on the first half of the boss, I realized I just might be able to do this. The first half, anyways. I cleared it RTA, but still doubted the second half could ever be done. But I decided to try it.
Playing through this hack over the last 2 months has made me so much better at smw and it pushed me to a level I didn't think I'd ever reach. I do not think I could've beaten 1f9 or savestate sanctuary 2 months ago. And I certainly couldn't have beaten it alone. I owe so much to my friends. tjb and anon for helping me with understanding different parts, and especially to everyone who has shown me endless support and belief as I went through the hack, even when I didn't believe in myself. I got through savestate sanctuary. I got through 1f9. I got through the boss. And I did it because I had some wonderful people by my side. Thank you all. And of course, trans rights are human rights.

It's taken weeks but 1f9 has been beaten. That boss, that last room is unlike anything else out there and I am just so happy I was able to beat it. Kinda at a loss for words right now. Gonna edit together all the individual level clears tonight and upload them as one video. I'll give my full thoughts on the hack there. Hack made by anonymousbl00dlust. And of course, trans rights are human rights.Hackers Dreams Master and Apprentice RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-08-16 | This was an amazingly fun level. All of these are built on top of existing levels from a very hard standard hack that predates kaizo called Master Courses. Old enough to be the first hack to have stickyfly in it. Anon's level design is heavily influenced by it so this level is a tribute to the hack.
The level is a 10 room gauntlet. The first set of 3 rooms have to be beaten back to back, although you can choose between 3 different permutations to play them in (123, 231, 312). Doing these was definitely the hardest part of the level. The same applies for rooms 4, 5, and 6, although these were a bit easier. Rooms 7, 8, 9, and 10 are much harder but have a checkpoint between each of them.
The gimmick of the level is the tight time limit for each room, as well as special sprites that are coded to cause slowdown when on screen. These will be indicated in the top left. The timer is unaffected by the slowdown so the indicated sprites must be killed as quickly as possible or there won't be enough time to beat the room.
There's a lot to say about this level, between whatever the fuck is going on in room 8 with 2 frame perfect jumps at the end, how absurdly fun rooms 9 and 10 are, how absolutely brutal room 2 and the door entry at the end of it are, etc. All I'll say is it felt like playing kaizo for the first time all over again, and it was wild. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Savestate Sanctuary RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-08-08 | Well, this was a level. Probably my favorite level to play in the hack so far, and the hardest level I've ever beaten. This makes me the first to RTA clear the level, excluding the creator. The last room is just the absolute limit of what's possible for a human to do in terms of inputs. R switches the blue blocks/sprites on and the red blocks/sprites off. L does the opposite. This means both buttons are required to be controlled separately to play the level.
Additionally, dash is mapped to select by default and can only be done after collecting a dash tile. I have it remapped to X in the first 3 rooms, as well as run, so X handles both. This is viable since you never need to start a spin jump while you have a dash tile. This doesn't work for the final room as pressing X to dash would also trigger an unpatched cape spin, so X is disabled. Thankfully, A is not required for this room.
I'm so happy I was able to playtest this level and ultimately be the first to clear the full thing. I'm looking forward to playing the room that was cut for time when it's added in a future update. Not counting time spent playtesting the level 2 years ago, and time spent playtesting the last room 2 months ago, this took approximately 30 hours, with the first and last rooms taking up most of that time. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Pipe Dream RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-08-03 | Yeah so this one didn't take very long. I actually beat it before I uploaded the last video. I've beaten this level dozens of times over the last few years since it was a demo that's been around for a while. I actually used to speedrun this level individually and my PB was about 15 minutes (you can find this video on the channel if you go back far enough). Obviously I'm very rusty and it took a little while but I'll gladly take an ~1 hour clear time on a hackers dreams level. Not much to say about the level itself besides it's extremely fun and I always love going back to it. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Old School RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-08-03 | This was one of the harder levels so far but overall really not too bad. Thankfully it was a lot easier than Ocean Stroll. Had fun with it, especially room 3 and the thwomp boss. There are unfortunately some audio pops in the room 3 clear. Anyways I'm just glad to be done with the atrocious vanilla switch palace music. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Ocean Stroll RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-30 | This is probably the hardest level in the game that I've beaten so far. Either this or Screen The Scroll. Rooms 1, 3, and 4 are absolutely brutal. So much of this level is making adjustments to your movement and reacting to slight deviations.
To make the level easier on my hands, I remapped up and down on the d pad to Y and B, respectively, for the first 3 rooms, so each hand only controls half the D-pad. This is viable because the first 3 rooms only use the D-pad. With an exception in room 3 where the run button is briefly required, which I mapped to L. Room 4 requires all the buttons so I had to use the default layout.
While room 3 is objectively probably the hardest room, with the current tiles flipping direction every 2 seconds, room 4 was absolutely brutal. I died many times to the very last trick due to nerves, so I was stuck in that room a lot longer than I should've been. I guess that was to make up for how quickly I got through room 3's ending. Overall it was an extremely fun level and I'm so happy to have beaten it, even if it was very difficult to learn. Old school is next, I'm not looking forward to the vanilla bonus game music. Hack by anonymousbl00dlust.Hackers Dreams Fly Like The Wind RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-24 | This was an extremely fun level. Room 4 was definitely one of the hardest rooms so far and took a very long time. Definitely a thumb shredder. I had such a fun time with the purple koopa mechanic, too. Some absolutely wild setups here. Only one path left, ocean stroll is next. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Left Right Land RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-23 | Probably the easiest level of the hack so far but was still overall a really good time. Though the version I originally had was broken with an unbeatable room 3 lmao. Room 5 was incredible, had so much fun with it. Only one level left before Ocean Stroll. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Alpine Climb RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-21 | Fun level. Definitely one of the easier ones so far. A much appreciated break after Screen the Scroll. Room 4 was still pretty rough tho. Hack by anonymousbl00dlustHackers Dreams Screen the Scroll RTA clear [Screen shake warning]Flips_Bad2022-07-19 | Screen shake warning for room 6. This level was absolutely ridiculous. I couldn't tell you how long it took but rooms 4 and 6 were so fucked up. Still super fun tho. Room 4 I was able to beat without savestate practice because it was fun but room 6 definitely needed the savestate practice. I can't imagine how long it would've taken to beat otherwise, and it was still one of the hardest individual rooms I've ever beaten. Super fun level. And apologies for the audio in room 4, I was streaming attempts and it was very hot and the AC was on. Hack by anonymousbl00dlust[Screen Shake Warning] Hackers Dreams Lava Caves RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-10 | Persistent screen shake throughout level. Very fun level, had a really good time playing it.

Will hopefully get through the rest of the levels relatively soon.[Flashing Lights Warning] Hackers Dreams 1f9 Final Boss first half RTA clearFlips_Bad2022-07-08 | Extremely fun boss fight, hackers dreams is a super fun hack and I'm really lucky I was able to test for anonymousbl00dlust. Doing the first half of the boss probably took about 20 hours but I didn't track my time. I most likely won't be able to beat the second half RTA. It's very hard.Atelier Umar Special World hard section clearsFlips_Bad2022-07-02 | Beat Atelier Umar yesterday. Here's a couple of the rooms I was really proud of for beating.

As soon as yoshi starts moving down, tap forward and then back as fast as you can. Don't hold back for more than a few frames or yoshi will slow down. This is stupidly tight.
