It's amazing what the community is able to achieve when everyone works together.

I'm by no means a speedrunning historian, but I can't recall any instance of someone saying "this game is solved" or "this time will never be beaten" and not being proven wrong eventually. I can't wait for Maximum to drop another video months or years from now with a new major development.

[GDColon]

I don't know why but the sudden transition from triumphant Mario Galaxy music to the funky Red Ball song at 11:51 just makes me smile so much
Huge congrats to Caramel and everyone else involved, the dedication is so impressive

"For me, a Red Ball OG is anyone that entered the game's speedrunning scene before 2021."

Just Imagine how small the Red Ball community would be (compared to now) if Maximum never made videos like Sub 20 train or these Red Ball World Record progession. Good job on reviving a community Maximum!

I have never played this game yet Im really intriuged to watch these videos when they come out😅

[wingedlynx]

Your content got me so invested in the speed running community, and even though I never have (and probably never will) play these games it is still so amazing to see the challenges and how they are overcome.

Yo this is gonna come out on my birthday. Better than I could've asked for.

[lukeario]

Runner: *exists*
ItsMaximum: “they were a favorite of many…”

[vivaeljason]

I kind of find it amazing that checking the current record, I see that it's been broken...by Maximum.

Ranboo put this video oh his "good ones" playlist on his YouTube channel, so damn congrats!!! ❤️

[saturnsensory]

Just to be sure, Ranboo watches your videos

[tripacesfellas]

Unless the community dies out quickly, sub 2:50 will definitely happen. When it comes to "doing the impossible", *NEVER* doubt the speedrunning community

Can’t wait for the 2031 video, “How a Red Ball sub 2 minute speedrun was achieved.

[someperson]

“Sw_ord tried to take a stab at sub 20 train”
Hmmm

[Super-playz]

This game seem similar to Super Mario Bros 1. Both games look like they have no way of breaking another barrier but, unlike SMB1 this game actually has a lot more potential. This game was my childhood and to see one of my favorite pastime games being absolutely broken is amazing. Thank you for this video and many other videos on your channel.

I don't understand how you can make me watch a 30 minute video about a game I care nothing about but keep doing what you're doing. I love these videos :)

[bobvagene]

I love how 3 days later, this video became completely irrelevant because of its own creator.

[michaelfr]

I remember watching you in summer 2020 when your flash 2021 video and the red ball 4 speedrun were your newest videos. Look at you now. I am proud to call myself an og

[miketroid]

Me: Has never once played Red Ball

Also me: I will watch every single one of these videos
