The speedrun world record for Drop Wizard Tower.
Your world record sounds arguably funner than mine.
My run was very luck dependent, i run the game for fun at times (mobile game, each attempt takes like 15 minutes) and still havent managed to beat my time 2 years later.
Since the game got delisted from Google Play for some reason this year, I’m likely not seeing competition on it for a long time.
At least 15
What were you playing?
Beatsaber
I used lucky patcher and got score of few million in subway surfer
408000 in Super Retro Mega Wars Tetris. This is equivalent to 199 lines.

What were you playing?
Poker
I once got 100% in banjo tooie without the Internet or a game guide. I’m kind of a big deal.
Were the secret areas hard to find?
I remember when I figured out the kazooie dragon permeant transform area my jaw was on the floor lol!
I did 100%'ed Tony hawk pro skater 2 back in the day
Holy shit . But like how??
Lot’s of games. Still aiming for that last two to be a four.
Edit: The general strategy is to always have your largest number in a corner and then snake alle other numbers towards that like you see in the screenshot. With small numbers you have a bit of leeway. But as soon as you hit 4096 the largest number has to stay in a corner.
Okay that’s rad. I have never got past 2046
I got close to a perfect pacman clear twice. Can’t remember the exact number of either run, but one was a little over the 3mil mark. I got excited and fucked it up.
The other was maybe 100k below that.
Both were high enough that nobody even got close.
I was absurdly good at pacman. Pretty damn good at centipede, though I wasn’t obsessed with it the same way, so I don’t remember any scores at all.
What’s the secret to succeeding at Pacman levels? The ghosts always find me by like the fifth level.
The ghost movement is not random. They go in memorizable patterns. So it is possible to simply rote memorize the solution to all 256 levels or something.
I mean I kind of got the gist that it’s a set pattern, but when I play, I feel like the movements are specifically designed to be inescapable past a certain point.
Back in the day it was combination of being young and paying attention to the basic patterns of the ghosts, then keeping a count of dots eaten so you could know when fruit was going to appear.
Each ghost has a set behavior in each phase of a board, plus a different way of picking where to go. The red ghost is always trying to get to where you are, but pinky is trying to get ahead of you. I can’t remember all of it any more, it’s been over thirty years.
Back then, it was all a bunch of kids spamming quarters and figuring things out as best we could. I wasn’t the one to figure out the patterns, I was just good at using them. And my hand/eye coordination was fast. So I could see the ghosts and where they were going, then adjust my movement before it would be a problem.
Staying ahead of the “ai” of the ghosts was the only real way to get past around lvl 50. Before that, you could usually just clear a quarter of the screen while avoiding them reactively. After that, if you weren’t able to visually track all 4, and have a sense of where they were going to be, you’d eventually crap out, or lose fruit, which means a lower score.
There’s articles out there now that give details I had no idea were part of it back in the arcade days though.
TIL Pacman is just a disguised game of American football/rugby.
Yeah, there’s a ton of similarity in the concept
So, when I was in highschool (circa 1996-ish) I couldn’t sleep one night. Decided to walk down to the 7-11. There were a few pinball games in there that I played before, but never really took it seriously. Popped in the quarter and got my ass handed to me. Decided, fuck it, I have nothing better to do at midnight in North Dakota. Popped in another quarter. Ended up hitting the multiplier in the top left corner. This machine was so worn out that I kept pushing the pinball into the multiplier slot. It got stuck and just bounced around there for a while. I eventually lost the ball, but now I knew the secret. Put the ball in the upper left corner. Every game after that I would aim for the upper left corner and it would just stick up there earning points. I eventually got bored at like 2 am and left the machine with like 65 free games from all the points I gathered. Fun as hell.
I routinely get scores so high that they stop me from carrying on
I play a lot of golf games
Once killed 224 in a game of Halo
I’ve tried those games a few times, could barely kill two. I’d make a terrible soldier.
Why was at first. Just hang in there and you’ll be killing aliens in the three digits.
I broke 1500 in Star Fox 64 once and I’ve never been able to do it since.
When Wolf said he can’t let you do that, I guess he meant it.
Sixty hundred.
Tony hawk 3 I played online a bit and could slap out million plus tricks. I could do one trick and AFK the rest of the match and win.
Just Rodney Mullen things
I always think of THPS3 as a PS1 game, didn’t even know it had online MP
672k playing Zombies Ate My Neighbors on SNES
