Petey Patterns: a Proof by Exhaustion on All Possible Routes Chockrit 2017-02-13 | This is my exhaustive proof of all possible patterns Petey can take during Bianco 5 in Super Mario Sunshine. Turns out Petey moonlights as a Traveling Salesman.This project took around 6 hours to gather footage, do timings, plan out, write, and debug code. Open to suggestions on how to make this project better and what to work on in the future.

Celaria | Potential Any% Optimization Chockrit 2021-06-05 | The Reset Level and Reset to Last Checkpoint controls in Celaria work differently in fullgame Speedrun modes than in ILs. Normally, Reset Level will also reset the status of checkpoints, but it does not in Speedrun mode. So we effectively have "Warp to Start" and "Warp to Last Checkpoint" commands instead. May be a handful of levels where Warp to Start could save time over a normal run. Needs investigation.

A Hat In Time Tutorial | Mafia Boss Ice Hat Quick Kill Chockrit 2019-07-06 | This is an advanced speedrun tutorial for the Mafia Boss Quick Kill. This should only apply for runs done on patches where the easier quick kill is impossible, and when doing the level without the local coop partner.
Music Analysis: Zelda Breath of the Wild Sequel Trailer Chockrit 2019-06-16 | The BOTW2 trailer has a looping, ominous theme that ramps up gradually, but also seems to want us to play the audio in reverse. As it turns out, it seems to borrow many motifs from the Memories Theme. Listen to my analysis and decide for yourself.Below is linked a read-only version of the sheet I used in the video. Keep in mind it was used more as a notebook than as an actual song to be listened to, but you should be able to play around with it in FlatIO or your favorite sheet music editor.FlatIO Score: flat.io/score/5d01b9c838901e5908d9248b-zelda-botw2?sharingKey=082e0eb7c4242422d15295b4a2ec749d2f655511599fe0afcb310b192cc7b329584a274c02d22e3f932e66c6be89a75f091affd15a3274034115c24827b27907
A Hat in Time | Bow Kid Any% Speedrun Tutorial Chockrit 2018-12-02 | In this video I break down all the strats and general best practices used in the Bow Kid Any% speedrun. This is a 1-player speedrun which controls two characters (1p2c). If you have any questions, feel free to join and ask in the Boop Troop Discord. I'm in there, as are loads of other Hat in Time speedrunners.Guide to downpatch to DLC3: docs.google.com/document/d/1yJRN3S7sMddmvfz8LA-1N3xxc8_wauo56s-CfHkWuxY/edit?usp=sharingAlpine Route (Fastest): https://i.imgur.com/6gnOxpe.pngParade Route (Slower but easier): https://i.imgur.com/iGtnkkB.pngFollow me on Twitch for live runs: http://www.twitch.tv/chockritFollow me on Twitter for good memes: http://www.twitter.com/chockritJoin the Boop Troop: discordapp.com/invite/HJEgHBw
A Hat in Time | Co-op Speedrun Timer Bug Chockrit 2018-11-14 | This is a comparison of first actionable frames relative to in-game-time after a loading screen in 4 different areas, with Co-op mode enabled and disabled. By holding forward and dive as soon as the timer appears, this buffers a dive input so it comes out on the very first actionable frame. Then frames were compared side-by-side to find a matching animation.For the Back-to-Hub from Mafiatown, this is the frame Hat Kid lands after bonking. For the entrance to Welcome to Mafiatown, this is the first frame the white splat appears around Hat Kid. For the Subcon and Battle of the Birds comparisons, this was the first frame a medium dust particle was created when Hat Kid begins sliding on the ground.The point of this video is to show that the in-game-timer tends to start earlier relative to the first actionable frame when Co-op is enabled, artificially inflating speedrun times by several seconds over the course of a full-game run. This affects Co-op runs with two players (2p) and with one-player-two-controllers (1p2c).To avoid at least some of this timeloss, Co-op mode must be disabled at some point in the level before the loading screen, which itself costs time. Co-op speedruns must weigh any timesave from a Bow Kid strat against the timeloss of leaving her enabled between levels, or the timeloss of menuing to disable and re-enable her.Some Bow Kid strats save only around 4 seconds (after considering the extra menuing), such as the gap jump in Owl Express Rift. But because Bow Kid needs to collect the Time Piece, that timesave is artificially reduced by ~1.25s, simply because the timer starts early upon spaceship load-in when Bow Kid is enabled.
Illness Has Spread | Bow Kid IL in 4:00.28 Chockrit 2018-11-10 | Sub 4 possible but hard, potential to implement a cutscene stack in Windmill that will skip jumping off. Needs more testing.
Alpine Purple Rift Idea Chockrit 2018-11-05 | Useful for Bow Kid categories, potentially useful for Solo.

Subcon Well Bow Kid Strat Comparison Chockrit 2018-09-25 | All three of these could be improved by ~0.5s so the comparison is fair. I could see Door Skip being ~1.5s faster at best but also a bit harder.
DWTM Bow Kid Quick Kill Chockrit 2018-09-19 | Drop Bow Kid on the spot and charge brewer. Because Hat Kid is the target, Bow Kid takes damage but is not knocked back.
A Hat in Time | Toilet Quick Kill on DLC Patch Chockrit 2018-09-16 | Possible with either Vsync or Environment Detail on current DLC Patch at time of upload. Vsync may have multiple-frame window, Environment Detail seems to have 1-frame window.The game lags enough that the toilet never calculates collision with the giant cherry and thus falls straight through. More research needs to be done to see if this is possible in earlier phases of the fight.
