Memory Manipulation Discovered in Plants vs. Zombies! Aaronthewinner 2024-06-09 | In the past month, some insane new glitches were found in Plants vs. Zombies! The game is getting much, much more broken than it ever has in the past, and will likely continue to do so in the coming months. In this video, I will explain how these glitches work, in addition to some helpful tools to experiment with them. These glitches have some really funny results and are a ton of fun to mess around with.

Plants vs. Zombies Any% TOOL ASSISTED SPEEDRUN!!!!! Aaronthewinner 2023-10-28 | After 5 months of work, I finally got a full recording of the Plants vs. Zombies Any% TAS. This was a fairly long and complex project, with so many variables needing to be controlled for the run to be consistent and successful. While this run is by no means perfect, it hopefully can be a decent showcase of just how optimized this game can get!PvZ TASing discord server: discord.gg/MsuvbWDbhGithub for the project: github.com/aaronthewinner/Plants-vs-Zombies-TAS-ProjectTAS Contributors: Aaronthewinner, Scion, BulbasaurRepresent, gina

Plants vs. Zombies 100% WR in 7:29:30 Aaronthewinner 2023-06-16 | For those who don't know, 100% is an extremely long and difficult category consisting of completing the adventure mode, all puzzles, all minigames and all survivals from a new file. I was waiting for a little while to find time to do this run, and I was finally able to get the WR! Very solid run throughout, 3:22 any%, solid post-game minigames and survivals(mostly), and a really clutch ending! Still some timesave as well considering this run had 2 deaths in puzzles, 7 min slot machine, and a 30 sec mistake in survival fog. Also, voice reveal for those who don't watch me on twitch.

Plants vs. Zombies Survival Endless 20 Flags WR 29:41 and 57:01 40 flags(4 sec off WR) Aaronthewinner 2023-02-09 | I have been grinding survival endless for a while and I finally got the 20 flags WR. However, I never expected to get anywhere near the 40 flags WR, but some crazy rng in getting no gargs in flags 20-34 got me really close! And I could've gotten it if the last flag went better. Still a crazy run nontheless.
Plants Vs. Zombies All Survivals WR in 2:08:00 Aaronthewinner 2022-12-11 | After not being able to pb for a while, I was able to pb by over a min to grab a new WR. Very solid run all around, only bad level was Survival Pool Normal. Probably done grinding this category for a bit. Discord: discord.gg/trghgteu4rTwitch: Twitch.tv/Aaronthewinner
Plants vs. Zombies Normal Survivals in 47:56 (WR) Aaronthewinner 2022-09-18 | I have been grinding this a lot in the last couple months and it finally paid off! Amazing start with roof that is also a WR and very strong fog and pool. Almost threw it away at the end with night, but was able to hold on and just barely grab a 1 sec WR!

Plants vs. Zombies Plus 25 Sun Meta Fog Levels(Turn on Captions) Aaronthewinner 2022-01-04 | Discord Link: discord.gg/5YS87HsaQNThe fog levels were a fairly easy jaunt for the most part. That being said, balloons and diggers are annoying...
Plants vs. Zombies Plus 25 Sun Meta Pool Levels(Turn on Captions) Aaronthewinner 2021-12-27 | Discord Link: discord.gg/5YS87HsaQNI should be uploading these around once a week now, and I am planning to do non-conveyor minigames after I'm finished with adventure mode. For now though, enjoy a fairly easy jaunt through the pool levels, at least after 3-2...
Plants vs. Zombies Plus 25 Sun Meta Night Levels(Turn on Captions) Aaronthewinner 2021-12-20 | Discord Link: discord.gg/5YS87HsaQNSorry for not uploading for a while! Now that I'm on break from college and I've finished my first semester, I should be a bit more active. You can join my discord for speedrunning, twitch, and youtube updates as well as just to spend time with me and my community.
Mario Party Superstars 2:21:10 All Boards Normal (WR) Aaronthewinner 2021-12-02 | I've been running this for a couple weeks, and although this run definitely has a lot of rng, it has a decent amount of skill as well, such as whether to throw minigames, what paths to choose, how risky you want to play in general, etc.
Plants vs. Zombies Plus 25 Sun Meta Day Levels(Turn on Captions) Aaronthewinner 2021-08-06 | Challenge idea I had for a while but until recently I didn't know how to set it up. Should be a pretty interesting challenge. I'm hoping to at least do all of the adventure levels and possibly do some minigames eventually.
Plants vs. Zombies All Minigames 1:37:21 Aaronthewinner 2021-06-21 | I originally streamed this on twitch, but parts of it were muted since apparently someone illegally copyrighted loonboon and twitch had its auto-bot recognize it. Also, voice reveal I guess
Plants vs. Zombies Survival Roof Endless 2 Slot Setup Aaronthewinner 2021-05-01 | Overall, the challenge was easier than expected. Surprisingly got it on my first try, although i did get good zombie rng in the first few flags. As long as you can aim the cobs better than I can for the bungee-dropped zombies, you can survive infinitely. Also, I've gotten into video editing now. I used music made by A_A_RonHD(youtube.com/watch?v=9Iw_bkgdwNs) and sped up the video to 2.5x speed since it was otherwise quite long. I will hopefully learn to do more edits in the future.
Plants vs. Zombies Survival Day with Only 1 Slot Aaronthewinner 2021-04-08 | Surprisingly Easy once you figure out the strategy
Plants vs. Zombies Plus 5-4 Second Adventure 7 Slots Sunflowerless Mowerless Shroomless Aaronthewinner 2021-04-02 | Does this count as an April Fools thing?
Plants vs. Zombies Brutal Mode 6-7 8 Slots Mowerless Aaronthewinner 2021-03-14 | This is what I thought was the hardest level in night roof brutal mode was in my first playthrough... and yet i somehow completed this challenge first try again.
Plants vs. Zombies 6-4 Brutal Mode 8 Slots Mowerless Aaronthewinner 2021-03-13 | Somehow accomplished this on my first attempt, I was expecting it to be way more difficult.
Plants vs. Zombies Survival Night Hard Without Losing Any Plants Aaronthewinner 2021-01-15 | Did this a few days ago. Somehow first tried this, despite not really having any idea what setup I would wind up going, and had a lot of wasted space. Also, apparently there is a grave limit(game didn't spawn new ones on flags 8 and 10). Only survival left for this challenge is fog hard.
Plants vs. Zombies Survival Roof Hard Without Losing Any Plants Aaronthewinner 2020-12-29 | Credit to Milesprower, another pvz challenge channel, for the Challenge idea, he streamed Survival Day Hard without losing plants a few days ago youtube.com/watch?v=Voq9y4hy35EThis challenge took me a few tries, as i kept getting zombonis and they are bad becuase even if my glooms don't have pumpkins, the zombonis still often crushed them and they move quickly as well meaning your cobs have less time to recharge
Plants Vs. Zombies Survival Roof Hard Without Symmetry (Only One Row) Aaronthewinner 2020-12-21 | Turned out to be not that bad. I did have one fail before this, but as long as you don't get unlucky with zombie rng it's fine.
PVZ+ Survival Endless Setup Aaronthewinner 2020-12-07 | I believe this is setup will be stable, mainly because of the 50 zombie limit. I was originally very scared of bungee zombies, but they only spawn on huge waves and you can get umbrella leaves out on column 8 in time. It is possible that there is a zombie combination that ruins the setup, but I find it unlikely

Pvz+ First Run 4:05:18 Aaronthewinner 2020-09-09 | The first speedrun ever of pvz+. Played day very badly, had a death on 4-8, and had bad luck in zomboss. Was comparing to an estimate from my routing for this.
Plants vs. Zombies Plus Zombotany Sunflowerless Mowerless Aaronthewinner 2020-08-30 | This minigame is insanely buffed in pvz+, making the name of the minigame obsolete in the process
Plants vs. Zombies NG+ 4:35:31 Aaronthewinner 2020-06-23 | New Game Plus is the category where you speedrun the adventure from a completed file, meaning almost all levels are longer, you have all plants unlocked, and dave randomly chooses 3 of your plants
Plants vs. Zombies Any% in 3:26:18 Aaronthewinner 2020-06-12 | This run was 4 sec off from second place. I feel that if I grind a bit more, I will be able to reach it as most of the converyor belts were not great. Roof was insane and saved this run.
Plants vs. Zombies Limbo Minigames 59:17 (WR) Aaronthewinner 2020-06-10 | The limbo minigames are deleted minigames that were original ideas for Plants vs. Zombies, and you need cheat engine to access them.
