And all it took to get here was a 118-day grind in one of thebest N64 gamesever made.

(The normal 16 star record is currently 14 minutes and 35 seconds.)

So, earlier this year, Bubzia set to work breaking the 20 minute barrier blindfolded.

Always inching closer, but never quite hitting that sub-20 goal.

It was insanely frustrating to run this.

I cannot overstate how mentally taxing this was."

But after 118 days of grinding spread across 10 months of effort, it finally happened.

Bubzia managed a 19:43 blindfolded.

“It can still be improved and maybe I will return one day.

Thank you all so incredibly much!”

That community response has been hovering between awe, disbelief, and simple congratulations to Bubzia on the accomplishment.

Speedrun legendSummoning Salt puts it simply: “This seemed completely impossible a few years ago.

Huge congrats to him for reaching his goal!”
