Imperial's Videos Topic

It is because you are missing those interiors.

I guess the staff forgot to include them in the download.

Instinct (2.47s) - Marble Blast Leaderboards Custom #3

Yes, another video after almost 2 years... but I think by now you are used to the schedule.

Obviously after the break many of my then-wrs are beaten, including this one. However I still want to show this mainly because I recorded this back in September 2015 and I was the first one to achieve sub-3s for this level, and the path that Xelna later came up with is quite different from mine. I think it would be nice for you guys to compare.

Enjoy!

Woo! Loved the new video. That's a very nice parh you've come up with.

_{Rosie what is a parh}

Oh man..those were great times of trying to understand how the hell you got two seconds on that level..

Really nice path, I love paths like this that are simple but have such a big effect on the level. The trick to skip the entire moving platform was really nice.

PlatinumQuest Levels 1



First ever PQ video on this channel! All levels except Messing with Physics (wtf regi) are done with Awesome Time, so good paths and execution are guaranteed.

Downhill Skipping - Battlecube314's path with slight modification at the start.

Pizzanator - Battlecube314's path with faster jumping patterns.

Momentum - Rosie's path plus a super speed at the end.

Level From a Forgiving Mind - My own path, although I am fairly sure Regi's path to get 17.62 is the same. The jump from the gravity island to the upper interior is very inconsistent, and my execution later on isn't that great either, so with better optimization and perhaps getting the 2.5s Time Travel you can beat his time.

Messing with Physics - Pretty good path that I came up with, not sure why it's not good enough to get Awesome Time...

Castle Colossus - I read the Awesome Hint before I formed this path, but I was not convinced that going back up to the tightropes is a good idea. But I did make use of the teleporter at the ice floor as advised and managed to beat the AT.

Terminal Velocity - I had 23.65 not long after PQ's release and I had no idea how it didn't beat the AT. After watching Rosie's video I realized I should have collected the first two TT's in their height order, as I swapped them in my run. Later I found out it is possible to get the 6th gem directly after the 5th, which further lowered my time.

Frozen Flames - I had 25.25 using Sefaro's path w/o waiting for the blast before the 2nd gem, but again it didn't beat the AT. I read the hint which told me to do the level backwards but without the use of cannons. Of course there's only one way to do that, but I wasn't sure if that's faster than Sefaro's method. Later I realized Rosie got 23.88, that's when I decided to try it out. Got 22.82 without too much hassle, and after standardizing my jump patterns as well as going right instead of left at the last TT, I got this time. Sub-20 should be possible for this and Terminal Velocity but needs some nasty optimization. (Tweaks WHERe)

That's it, I hope you enjoy!

P.S. Hopefully I will release some custom videos which have been sitting around in my laptop for almost 2 years, but I am not sure if there's enough interest for them.

Finally, a new video that features actual newer runs from you! Mindblowing! You may not know me, but I watched many of your classic videos! You are a superb marble-runner!

Imperial at the top of its art!

I have been waiting such a long time for a compilation from you and this is beyond satisfactory. Welcome back to the community, dude. We've all missed you.

PlatinumQuest Levels 2



Second video in the series! This time all levels are done in Awesome Time, so get ready to be startled.

Gems - Powerjohn's path done slightly faster.

Dizzying Road - This is mostly luck lmao.

Race to the Top - Sefaro's path done slightly faster.

Path Finding Folly - hPerks' path modified by me to include the two 5 second TTs behind the ramp. (Inspired by RadiantVibe)

Frozen Flames - Path from last video adding Regi's tweaks at the start, can go sub-18.

Puzzle 9 - I could write an essay about this level, but long story short, I spent an entire day and formed 4 different paths until I finally beat the AT.

Puzzle 11 - A hard level unless you really go into LE and study every detail of it. Keypoint here is to utilize gravity and take as little gravity modifiers as possible. One can rebound directly from the last gem to the finish, but I screwed up the air movement in this run and didn't make it, so at least 58.xx is possible. I wouldn't be surprised if this goes even lower.

I hope you enjoy!

Wow! You beat so many times both with your own paths and the paths of others. I can't imagine what it must take to pull off something like you did in Puzzles 5 and 11. Looks like the longtime marble blaster is still very much at the top of his game! Also, +1 for Winterbliss as the 2nd song.

That was unbelievable! Path Finding Folly and the two Puzzle levels were my favorites.

(Eguy, Puzzle 9. Not Puzzle 5.)

WHAT. THE. FUCK.
