If you grew up in the 80s or 90s there's a good chance you've
played Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
More than 30 years after its release in 1985 the side-scrolling
platformer remains one of the best-selling video games of all time.
Maybe you can hum the theme song, and you've found the secret warp
pipe in World 1-2, but have you ever actually beaten the game? If
so, how long did it take you? Hours? Days? Weeks? In late 2016, an
American gamer known online as "darbian" rescued the Princess Peach
in 4 minutes and 56 seconds. This is video game "speedrunning" and
darbian is one of the best speedrunners around. Speedrunners use
their knowledge of the game and quick reflexes in an attempt to
complete video games in the fastest time possible. In this book
you'll learn about the history of speedrunning, the techniques
involved, and what it takes to play games fast in ten interviews
with star speedrunners like darbian.
