My first no hits no death speedrun :) The actual fight with Rez took nearly 9 minutes :0 This is the 2nd request that I had to do and this speedrun is one of the challenge speedruns that I have created. After an endless number of tries, I finally did this. This was an ok speedrun and I was taking it carefully in the later levels. This speedrun type in general was incredibly frustrating because when I am careful enough not to get hit, I get hit on the things that I shouldn't get hit at all or fall off for no reason. For example, I nearly fell off in a level at 1:12:40. You must handle frustration pretty well to speedrun this. I kind of did wish that I did Gex 3 or Spyro 1 instead of Gex 2 because in my opinion, you get hit way more in Gex 2 then those games. The no hits and no death rule that I go under means that the rule is only broken if I actually got my health down to 3 hit points or lower. I still got hit but the hits didn't bring my health down.

Speedrun News: My next speedrun will not be a Gex speedrun because that is all I have speedrun recently. I had time to think about it and I think I should do something completely different and not speedrun a platform game but speedrun Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4. What do you guys think? In other news, I found out that in Gex 3 if you have the voice sound option turned off, Gex just goes in a tv without saying his main catch phases that means I wasted time especially on the 100% runs. I tried out this thing on Gex 2 and unlike Gex 3, Gex says his lines as normal and goes in the tv. I guess I want to improve my Gex 2 100% speedrun and my Gex 3 Any% speedrun in the future. I might speedrun Frogger as well and I haven't forgot about the Spyro 3 100% speedrun. My goal on that speedrun will be 4:10. I will work on routes for that and maybe post routes up as well and hopefully it will be out in Summer 2013? I know all the tricks and stuff but I don't know the routes on getting everything the fastest way. Thanks for watching this speedrun and reading all of this! :D
