A Shiba Inu called Peanut Butter will certainly quickly be contending at speedrunning occasion Awesome Games Done Quick, playing retro Nintendo platformer Gyromite – and I could not be prouder.
This week, speedrunner JSR_ revealed that their skilled canine, Peanut Butter, will certainly complete at AGDQ in January 2024. The Shiba Inu is familiar with the sport and really holds the globe document for completing the traditional SNES game Gyromite (Game B) in simply under 25 mins and 30 secs – which can be located on Speedrun.com. This is, certainly, an excellent task however, at the time of creating, Peanut Butter is really the only pooch to have actually tried the ‘Dog Assistance’ obstacle.
To introduce the excellent young boy’s engagement at the occasion, JSR_ submitted a video clip to their YouTube channel labelled ‘A Shiba Inu will certainly speedrun at AGDQ 2024’ which not just introduces the future obstacle however additionally exposes exactly how Peanut Butter can play the Nintendo game in all. Back in July, JSR_ submitted a video called ‘The globe’s very first real speedrunning canine speedruns a game in 25:29!’ which showcases exactly how Peanut Butter obtained his globe document we stated previously.
In the video clip’s summary, JSR_ exposes that all inputs in the excellent speedrun were done by Peanut Butter (that obtained his name after ‘PB,’ as in individual finest in speedrunning terms) making use of a custom-made controller without aid, autofire, macros, or conserve states being made use of. Getting PB to strike the appropriate switch at the correct time evidently “took years of training” and happened because of their proprietor wishing to “train him to do something special” – JSR_ definitely has the appropriate type of canine to do this as Shiba Inus are understood for being really smart.
I’m behind Peanut Butter 100% and think that he’s greater than efficient in defeating his individual finest when Awesome Games Done Quick rolls around very early following year. You can figure out that else is contending throughout the occasion in addition to the timetable (since Oct 20) by heading to the GDQ website.
This tale advises me of the Elden Ring-playing goldfish that handled to defeat both Malenia and Godrick without laying a fin on the controller.
