way back in 2013 when I was just starting out with speedrunning / streaming. Kosmic was one of the runners that inspired me to stick with Super Mario Bros. "I don't look at him - or anyone, really-as a competitor as opposed to someone else who enjoys speedrunning the same game. "Kosmic and I are very good friends within the community," says Darbian (real name Brad). (As slick as they seem, they are profoundly difficult to pull off-you'll notice that Darbian has a heart rate monitor on his stream layout to show just how tense things can get.)ĭarbian has a heart rate monitor on his stream layout to show just how tense things can get.Īs happy as Darbian is to achieve a record once thought humanly impossible, he's thankful that he has competition in the community to push him further and further. Watching the video is quite a trip, as Darbian makes incredibly difficult maneuvers and bugs seem near effortless in an incredibly smooth playthrough. This tops Kosmic's 4:57:194 from just three days ago. Thankfully, a November 2020 patch allowed it to be played with its GameCube controller–the true way to enjoy the experience.Though Darbian's timer says 4:57:02, the actual time is 4:56.878. If you want to try your hand at the classic outing, Super Mario Sunshine features in Super Mario 3D All-Stars alongside Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy. Naturally, he also has to save Princess Peach from “Shadow Mario” because of classic damsel in distress tropes.
Mario is blamed for the mess and, instead of being imprisoned like he would be in real life, he’s forced into extensive community service to restore the resort, using the tenuously named Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Device (F.L.U.D.D.): a glorified Super Soaker backpack. If Super Mario Sunshine passed you by due to the more limited success of the GameCube, the often-maligned second 3D installment in the Mario franchise sees the titular plumber visit Isle Delfino for a vacation, only for a baddie that looks like him (what are the chances?) to vandalize it with graffiti. For fans of drama, it appears there’s some room for improvement in nindiddeh’s record time–meaning even those lagging by over a minute could have engineered a shortcut that’s yet to be explored.
