The first like 2 weeks of learning the game is one of the hardest gaming experiences I've had

[Dr.Dankies_]

Just took out my n64 yesterday first time in 20 years, learned blj yesterday, and tried this run for time today and got 1hr 9min. Fookin love this can’t wait to keep improving

Appreciate the tutorial man, great stuff

[ItsDarin]

Such a high quality guide, also it's super helpful that you uploaded the raw run using these strats with an input display. I couldn't ask for more, thank you so much for your guides <3

[megwego]

Fantastic and so helpful, people like you are why speedrunning sm64 is so popular, you and all others involved are doing a great service!

[FatalityFalcon]

This guide is great, on my first day of learning this game I almost got a sub 30 using this route! Nowhere close to ideal yet, but not bad for day 1. Looking forward to cleaning up execution and getting some sick runs.

[SStephenMC]

thank you for this tutorial! everything i have learned has been from this video i spent 2 minutes on each part to practice and got my first ever run of 30:14. While this is not impressive I'm still proud of my first run thank you :)

[MikeBartelli]

I’ve been learning some tricks from your tutorials and this is absolutely the perfect video for where I’m at in sm64
Thanks man

[haogwasakura]

Hey! Thanks a lot for this! I've started runing Mario64 2 weeks ago and has been a LOT of fun, i am a bit stubborn with some tricks that i really like so i lose a lot of time with them, but this video helped a lot plus i know i need to get better at my basic movements, the instadive is a movement i haven't mastered yet, but everything else is coming up together!

With a sub 20 in 16star category i'd be happy to move to 70 star maybe, not sure yet, and Bowser in the Sky is my nemesis, that last pole grab is what ruins my runs every single time and i just can't do any of the tricks shown in the guides, so i usually get to the platform and grab both poles in a very slow fashion.

Thanks again for this and also to the Discord community that helped me to set up Project64!

If you do owlless in your runs on n64, then you want to do it before fighting the king whomp because since the tower causes lag it can slow you down quite a bit.

[howdyfriends]

this helped me a lot! thank you for a good beginner's run.
i can do basically everything in this run except the dang bird star in SSL and the wood block jump kicks in BitS, now to learn some consistency!

[Phillyjoe]

Thank you Drogie! I've just got my sub-30 minute and want to keep on pushing for the lowest time I can get, and this video has been really helpful in showing me what the next steps are in order to continue dropping my time. Thanks again, keep up the good work 👍👍👍

[CovenJinx]

I'm about to do my first ever 16 star run ever, and this was massively helpful in remembering a lot of little things. Thanks for the guide!

[DevenRamchandran]

Drogie are you working on something like this for 70 star? Your tutorials are all very helpful and entertaining, thank you so much!

[Starlight_]

Got to the 3rd Bowser with 16 star but I took easier stars as I wasnt trying to speedrun but just to achieve a 16 star game. Also, a controler with Turbo makes BLGs way easier!

(for people who doesnt know, a turbo controler makes you able to spam a button really fast just by holding it)

[hiki]

Great guide. Got a 39:41 in a few runs without even really practicing individual movement or stars. Excited to actually practice with this!

[GTSkillfulTurkey]

This helped out so much! I can't express my gratitude for this. ❤

[dormoxxfgc]

just got into sm64 speedrunning like 3-4 days ago. i don't have a usable gamepad so i've been playing on my smashbox and the tiny angle adjustments have been tough haha. so far i'm up to wall kicks will work. many thanks for the guide 🙏

[KoopaTheQuick]

My friend and I have both just started speedrunning this game to see who can get the best time after a month. Thanks to your guides I've managed to get a 22:11 after my second week!! Thank you for all your hard work Drogie!!

[jaytonmaduro]

This is really helping me in a lot with my journey to 16 star. Thanks!

[Jibbby-]

I love you explainations of lag reductions especially in fire sea thanks legend
