bdias10 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) Guys I just made this thread to try to get some motivation to keep trying this by asking if anyone had 40 50h experience trying this or maybe even more? I have 22h trying and I cant get close, I got a 16 streak once and that was it, it feels so hard to get level 1,9 and 19 in a row and when I do I die for either 13 or 6 right away by pressure, there are least 10 really hard levels for me but 3 feels totally luck to get despiste all this time playing, really sucks Edited April 28 by bdias10 Grammar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samunrizthym Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 should take a break on this or drop it for good ,your health (mental and body) is the priority 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snatchesz Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) My strategy back in the day was to beat every level 10 times, and note the # of deaths on that level to clear it 10 times, then starting the runs ordering the levels with the most number of deaths first. It take some time but worked for me, good luck! And also take breaks! Edit: Also try again the easy levels because on my case the easiest one was the level 12, and fucked up the trophy two times on that final level before finally getting it.

Yeah, thing is I already know which ones are the worst and it really sucks to do them in a row deathless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snatchesz Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) My death count was around 22k, but I took a break of months before starting trying the deathless runs haha Edited April 28 by Steven-Spiegel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can get this kind of infernal trophy after playing unpretentiously for a long time; dying and failing becomes so common that you don't care anymore, just keep trying and at some point the trophy will come. At some point you will realize that muscle memory is almost playing for you on automatic, and when you are close to getting the trophy it might be good to take a deep breath and consciously take control for yourself. What I'm really saying is what happened to me several times, at a certain point I just played on automatic after many frustrated attempts until the final attempt miraculously happened. Yes, you are so right . It is crazy how it affects your gameplay and it is funny because when I got 16 streak I didnt care because I know I was going to die because I haven't cleared 19 yet lol, I will just do 2 3h daily maybe 2h and see what happen, I will keep going like u said without expectatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamalovebad Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Just got it a few days ago , my only advice is keep practicing and by time you'll get better , my nightmare was 16 but thankfully you can pause before you die . This my successful run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be a matter of "If I can beat it", more like "When". I've died once at the last level, I think it was 18, took a small break and got the platinum a day later.

Mentality is what matters in the long run Also, everyone is different, so if you spend 200+ hours on the platinum when people have done it in 50 hours and half the deaths, that doesn't mean you aren't good enough to beat it. I really do think anyone with enough motivation can beat SMB, you don't need to be some sort of God or anything, patience and motivation are the key 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do think anyone with enough motivation can beat SMB, you don't need to be some sort of God or anything, patience and motivation are the key I got a 18 streak yesterday, could taste the plat and fked it up on the last hard level, I left 20 for one of the last and shame on me for that. I am 40h trying and I saw some crazy progress on the levels and I am for sure more consistent, but my biggest issue it is streaking levels 1,9,14,19,20. Those 5 are a pain for me, 19 not so much anymore but still, really annoying, the issue I found on Cotton Dark Alley is there are at least 10 levels that can easily kill you: 1,2,6,8,9,13,14,15 ,19,20 rather than 6 or 7 levels on Zombie or Girl Boy, 3 or 4 levels make a huge difference, I just got keep going and accept I can stay 100h until I get it , I just dont care anymore , I wont stop until I get it Edited May 2 by bdias10 Grammar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdias10 Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Update : I am seriusly going mental with this, 50h trying and I got 2 streaks of 19 failing on last 3 jumps on level 20 once, 3 strikes of 18, 1 of 17 with 3 easy levels left and a 3 with 16, it is so only on my head right now since I know all levels pretty well at this point and my nerves keep getting the best out me, I am so close but so far away at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunisherXD Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 On 5/3/2024 at 4:40 PM, bdias10 said: Here is the video I can't exactly tell what you're doing at the top there as there's no input overlay (I don't expect there to be one), however what I do know is that the game does not support buffer inputs. Because of that, you might be pressing the jump a few frames before making contact with the wall, and so the game "eats" your input. Try to experiment with that and see if that's the case, if it is then now you know, one more thing to make your runs more consistent hah. Looking at your most recent message, it sounds like you're very close. Its common to get stuck on any hard challenge like this, so it's just a matter of time now really. Keep up the grind 🫡 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the grind 🫡 Thanks for the message man, I already understand what went wrong there, it is a very unlukcy thing that happens once each 12 15 times u do that level like that, so instead I choose to do smaller jump and hold X so I dont bounce on that top thing , it is risk free now, thank God I have close friends that give me a lot support because otherwise this would be even harder, big respect for anyone trying this for real, hardest thing I ever tried on my life by far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean everyone who unlocked Golden God has what it takes to do the platinum it`s just the nerves and muscle memory. Once i have done the hard chunk i mess up on easy peasy levels because my brain knows it`s just 2 or 3 more levels. It is so demotivating to fail after 17 or 18 successful levels. But yeah, its completely doable. I am planning to delete all my games and only install Super Meat Boy to avoid getting side tracked maybe around the end of the year and give it a final try. But i also stopped stressing myself about it as i can accept to have this game uncompleted in my list. Since i platinumed Binding of Isaac i fullfilled my personal wish to get at least one Edward McMillen platinum I wish you all the best for your remaining levels, take some breaks and try not to loose the fun in the process! You can do it for sure Best wishes, Davy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
