Vectorman speed run [

  • This is my Vectorman speedrun in 13 minutes and 44 seconds, as timed from pressing Start Game to delivering the final hit on Warhead.
    Vectorman is a kind of unique run'n'gun in that you never shoot enemies if you can avoid it. The best way to deal damage by far is actually the jump-boost that you get by pressing C twice. The regular shot does have some utility, though: if you shoot up-right as you land from a fall your speed immediately resets to a high value.
    I would have preferred to get a deathless run, but only one death losing minimal time isn't too bad. Can be beaten by a good few seconds (maybe 20?) but didn't fancy the grind that would have entailed. When I did the PAL run the grind was three months long, and this just took a weekend, to give you an idea of how my attitude to speedruns, especially of simple games like this, have changed over time.

    This game really stood out in my childhood

    Vectorman receives a message: "Humanity will arrive in 13 minutes and 44 seconds so you better make sure there's no hostile robots when they get there."
    Vectorman as he's running and vooping hostile robots: "That's an oddly specific number but I'll make it work."

    Easily one of the best if not best action platformers on the Genesis. Even has some of the best music, too. Not quite the Nostalgia factor of Sonic 1-3&K, or the pop culture of say Mortal Kombat, but such a gem of a game.

    I remember once playing casually with a friend and vector man was invincible the entire game. We didn’t know how we did it. I’m in my 30s now and still think about it

    • @Templarfreak
      @Templarfreak Před 4 lety +6

      There is a cheat code that gives you invincibility. Maybe you somehow accidentally entered it?

    • @chairmanm3ow
      @chairmanm3ow Před 3 lety +2

      I still remember the cheat codes "DRACULA" and "CALL A CAB" that you could enter during a paused game. CALL A CAB turned you into a cursor that could float through the level and inflict damage. DRACULA might have been invincibility.

    Sonic 1, 2 and vectorman were my first games for my Genesis...vectorman was very unique in sound and level design, cool bosses and ending...it's ashame it never got the recognition it deserved.

    You are a video game prodigy! That set up with the polar bear boss was swift, imma call you the rocket boost master! And you took down clockwork like it was nothing, it took me and my friend 30 minutes to beat that boss. Very good video!

    Great run and a great game. I used to play the daylights out of this as a kid. The graphics blew me away back then, this was probably the most impressive looking genesis game I ever had. A great run and gun too, really holds up fine.

    Ooooh this was a surprise to find in my notifications. Grats man, super clean movement in comparison to the last ntsc pb (nice clockwork battle too), and i'll have to scrutinize it for when I can finally get past stage 3 in a decent time, haha! Vectorman 2 next weekend? :P

      I practiced it for a little while, and then realised I couldn't do the tornado jumps in 18 so there wasn't much point. I think you can have that one!

      It turns Vectorman into a weird "mouse cursor" that has no collision/has invincibility, is very fast, and damages enemies when hovering over them.
