On December 15th, 2007, a 16-year-old developer named Snubby released The World's Hardest Game, one of the most infamous flash games ever created. The game challenged players to not just overcome it, but to truly conquer it by achieving a completion with the fewest number of deaths possible. However, for many, achieving the game's definition of perfection, zero deaths, wasn't enough. This is the story of how speedrunners truly conquered The World's Hardest Game.

I'm the developer of the game. It's an honor to have such a well researched and edited video documenting everything. I can attest that all the info is accurate. I am actually still doing game development, but it will be a few years before my next game is released due to having a job now and it being a really large project. My next game will be called Dungeon Dame and although it's mainly a platformer, there's an overworld which is very similar to world's hardest game, but with a bunch of differences and new features. So the WHG series will not officially be continued any further but Dungeon Dame's overworld will be very similar (and hopefully better). Thanks for watching guys.
👑
rip worlds hardest game, but dungeon dame sounds like it has potential
first also hi
I noticed a few years ago that the Snubby Land site had been taken down. I wonder why you decided to take it down then.
hi chain
I love the fact that it took 7 years and a level selector for someone to beat Shiroma's record by 3 seconds. Shiroma is a legend.
He's the real winner tbh. Had he been performing with a level selector back then, he would still be undefeated
I like dogs
He was appearently got skill huge skill
dont forget that pzula also died once in that run
@@Aazel yeah
Its actually insane how good Shiroma was back then. It legit took 7 years before someone could defeat him. If he had the level selector and 1 more year to practice back then, he would still have the world record to this day.
probably not even a year, just a couple months
Adjusting for era, he is undoubtedly the greatest player in the history of this game.
@@deleetiusproductions3497when it comes to goat debates, adjusting for era should be common. people call wilt chamberlain the goat, yet he played against literal accountants and school teachers. people call MJ the goat yet he played against random 40 year old men they plucked from the street. Lebron is playing against generational genetic monsters with 8 foot wingspans who can dunk without jumping. he’s playing against a league who has guys casually dropping 70+ points every other weekend. Lebron is the goat.
@@ImNeoFr how did you somehow manage to connect Lebron James with The Impossible Game 💀 The meatriding is crazy
I love how you broke down the jankinest of Flash hitbox detection for viewers, that was VERY informative.
Sad that people accused Pzula of cheating over that
I learned about the hitbox jank early on and felt very proud of it
Thank you for introducing me in such a wonderful video. I don't understand English so I still only understand a small part of the video, but I am happy to know the progress of the records from the time I was playing to now. I would enjoy this video so much more if I understood English. At the time, I thought that I was the only one who would challenge the speedrun in this game and that no one would ever beat my record, but now there are many players and I am impressed when I see them beat my record.
Hehe, snowman guy
Hey Shiroma, KZhead app today can auto-translate subtitles to many languages including Japanese. Hope this helps! シロマさん、今日の KZhead アプリは字幕を日本語を含む多くの言語に自動翻訳できます。 お役に立てれば！
@@van_Zju Subtitles translated into Japanese could be displayed. Thank you!😊
I am super glad that you enjoyed the video! Thank you for providing your insight of how you got into speedrunning the game; it's really cool that you are still involved with the speedrunning community all these years later!
nice profile picture
Honestly, Shiroma, in my heart, is the real champion for figuring out so many cool tricks without level selection.
Yeah
YES
yeah
100%
He speedran so they could … also speedrun
Huge respect to Shiroma and Pzula for their contributions to this speedrun’s evolution! (Based on the video at least) It seemed like Pzula was the only hope for toppling Shiroma’s record, not only in finding ways to optimize practicing (which is useful to the rest of the community), but to show others that it was indeed possible, which I think probably got more people to go for the record. He wasn’t trading records back and forth with others, he was just continually grinding his PB down until he got it. I don’t know exactly how to phrase it, but that kind of ‘trudging through it alone whilst making discoveries that will later benefit the community’ thing is very commendable And holy shit, respect to Shiroma for being a decade ahead of everyone else despite not even being able to practice individual levels. That’s fucking insane and it goes to show just how incredible of a player he is. I can only imagine what he could’ve pulled off nowadays with the tools at everyone’s disposal. I think we can all agree (as either viewers or players) that Shiroma is *the* chad of The World’s Hardest Game and laid the groundwork for any subsequent runners. And I feel like through Pzula’s dedication to match Shiroma, he made it seem more accessible/realistic for new runners to go for the record. I wonder how much longer it would’ve been before the record got beat if Pzula hadn’t decided slowly climb his way there alone Great video!
i guess it would be considered trailblazing, given that hiroma set the gold standard so high that pzula was the only one who was psychotic enough to take it on
This hit me right in the nostalgia. I remember discovering this game in high school and don't even think I made it to double digit levels. Seeing the game just destroyed by so many people in such a short amount of time is flabbergasting. Thank you for this wonderful run down memory lane.

What a fabulous job you did here!

Didn't expect a relatively straightforward flash game to have so many techniques. Amazing analysis and incredible skill by all the runners.
Incredible work Maximum. The amount of effort you put into this video is insane. Your presentation skills are top notch and the hour just flew by. This was a wonderful trip down memory lane, and a fantastic recount of the game's history. Thank you for shining the light on our strange desire to conquer this old flash game

For an hour, I got emotional by the achievements of people I didn't know existed about something I'd never think I would care about. This video is a masterpiece of narration.
For me, Shiroma is probably the most important thing to happen to who speedrunning. The effects of his strategies were not only more than 7 years ahead of their time, but are still being used to this day.

I don't know if I am more shocked that you could make an hour documentary out of this or that I watched it all through without losing interest. Great editing. Kudos to all.

The amount of research and preparation to narrate this smoothly is incredible. And the editing is also great. This is among the smoothest, natural feeling documentary youtube videos Ive seen. Amazing job

I really like how the competition for this game goes from “Can you beat this WITHOUT DYING” to deaths technically not really mattering (since it’d be slower anyways).
Shiroma is still the most impressive. Playing through all the levels all over again. I would die.
He and Pzula were the GOATS for sure. Shiroma because he had it rougher than the other guys and had such a good time without clipping all other glitches the other guys used. Pzula found so many strats and improved the time quite a bit. Other guys used there tactics, practiced and found some minor things to improve there time. They all deserve credit but personally this 2 had the most impact.
Wasn't Hachiman the OG speedrunner?
@@nicodiangelo2040 HatredCopter technically was the first person to record attempts
but u get repawn with death counter
And the fact that he stayed on top for seven years. You seldom ever see any such accomplishments in speedrunning.
I just want to say man, your editing is so on point, so key on that it is an incredible pleasure to watch this video. I stumbled upon this channel from speed running and you have gained a new sub if this is the quality you put out. I know how much time this all takes so I want it to be known that it is appreciated by at least me and I am sure many, many other people here. Great job my friend, incredible homage to speed running and the small niche things that we all deal with when it comes to our passion, either it be this game or many others. I look forward to more of your videos, keep up this excellence.
All of the world record holders introduced something new to the game. They're all incredible in their own rights, but I would LOVE to have seen what the early record holders could have done with the level selector when they were still actively speedrunning the game.

Loved that all people featured in the video left a comment, Aaron, HsBlue and Shiroma. Speedrunning is indeed an group enterprise, everyone builds on top of previous effort and the community as a whole gets better. If everything in the world followed this mindset we would be in a very better place.
The amount of effort put into the making of this video is incredible. Very well done my friend. I remember playing this game when it came out when I was a kid and I don’t think I ever got close to beating it, just too hard! Amazing speed runs AND no death!
"He was able to cut his amount of deaths in half from 15 to 12" Seems legit
Yeah its obviously cut in half: one half is 3 and the other half is 12. logic
Hatred copter got 24 deaths, which he cut in half to get 12.
Being someone who just beat the World's Hardest Game 2, this is nothing short of incredible. My mind is blown.
It's amazing how people went from barely beating it to barely being able to optimize something any further. Truly astonishing what people can achieve, when they are passionate about something
I love the Mario Kart Wii music in the background!
Still blown away by this speedrunning history. Everybody putting hours and hours perfecting every little detail, saving miniscule things like the level 1 frame skip. Meanwhile there's me, still not being able to win the game once.
I cant even beat level 1
same i can't beat the game and only made it to level 2
I love how everytime it's like "This run is the perfect one, they can't do better than that. But they did better."
And it's not going like "as expected", but actually going insane with every chapter and each chapter was unique as a whole and feels like a finished piece of art, but then the picture gets wider and wider, making an old scratch of a game to a complete masterpiece of the storytelling, once again proved that reality is the best storyteller. It's not just the game in the first place, but the history of beating it. Isn't it the real definition of any masterpiece? Being once again perfected to a whole 'nother level each time record is beaten is such a great thing to see and hear nowadays. Did you enjoys as much as i did? It's like a neverending story of becoming better and better, which could be a core plot similar to gaining power in munchkin, influence in romance taking place in kingdoms and even managing to survive some deadly hopeless environments. It requires mc to do something incredible, which are core plot for any incredible story after all

this was honestly one of my favorite videos i could watch it over and over it was so entertaining whilst also being almost an hour long video keep up the great work Maximum
When Shiroma completes a level it feels like the smack-text is him talking to the game.
Your storytelling skills are improving every video mate, I'm loving it
You sound real gay right now, man. Gotta stop that.
I don't think I've been more emotionally invested in someone's success than each time you showed all the cool stuff that someone had done, then said "all he has to do is...". This is a masterfully researched, narrated, and edited essay.
Few things: 1. I never thought I’d watch a video on the worlds hardest game considering how fed up with it I was in school (coolmath), but this was truly amazing. 2. It’s so funny you explaining how clipping essentially works in this game since I’d do it so often accidentally and just think I was the luckiest person ever for it not registering lmao. I learned so many neat things and I’d be lying if I said it doesn’t make me wanna turn my pc on and attempt a speedrun or record, but I don’t have that kinda dedication 🤣😭 I’ll keep an eye out for your content though, this video was really cool!

What a high quality video documentary, your channel is criminally underrated.
wasn't even aware this game existed an hour ago after watching a red cube glide around for over 50 mins I can safely say this is one of the most commendable and dedicated speedrun communities to observe. Who knew you could make a gripping documentary on a barebones flash game barely older than myself, you (and of course the runners who set the bar) really have a skill for content creation.
5:20 wow this is insane. So, i know this is random, but thank you for including this image. I've been looking for the game titled "choose your weapon" for so long because I remember playing it when i was young and i remember a vivid image of the game however I did not know what it was called or where to really begin when searching for it. So... thank you.
If anything, this just highlight even more of what an accomplishment Shiroma time was. If he had access to all of these things that the modern speed runners have, just imagine all the things he could have discovered and optimized.
Maximum, your videos are amazing, you are the one who made me start playing red ball and fancy pants. Also, I'm probably entering the rb speedrunning discord and I'll start my speedruning! Thanks for making my days better, keep up the great content

It's great seeing how some flash speedrunners run games for nostalgia, and some run it just because it's the only games their system can handle
This video is mind blowing on a few different levels A) I grew up with my friends rage quitting this same game countless times as kids. B) I watched a nearly hour long video about a flash game. And finally C) Watching world records be set on this game is just mind boggling!
Speedrunners are such a special kind of person. Thanks for making this!
'This mistake probably didn't matter that much' Now in the industry, that's what we call foreshadowing.
This game was a large part of my childhood and it’s honestly amazing to see how far people have come with it.
Every time I watch this video it amazes me even more. Like most people, I played the game for about a week and never got past level 10. Props to both you and all the speedrunners that made this possible
I remember completing this game at 12 after some try hard, old tho fun memories, thanks Snubby.
I was initially just going to put this on as background while playing a game and checking the video out here or there. The way this was presented, and how well the research and pacing of the documentary was, actually made me drop everything else I was doing and sit here watching the whole thing. Didn't even realize how long the video was until it was over. Amazing work! It's crazy how much this game had going on. I remember playing it (probably on Newgrounds) and could never even get close to beating the game. I didn't even know there were leaderboards! Brought back a lot of forgotten nostalgia. Thank you for this awesome piece of art!

Amazing documentary. Pacing, editing, narration all top notch. I also love the fact that many of the mentioned record holders you mentioned can be seen in the comment section. All of them have had their fair share in speedrunning the game but I must say I'm most impressed by Shiroma, especially due to the fact that he got his records without level selection.
anyone here after 3 new records were set in the last 2 weeks?
This is a game that created so many friends and rivalries, from who took the least deaths for the first level to who can go the furthest, elementary school was fun. Now I'm in high school seeing this game being ripped through so easily it's mind bending
Just found your channel, one thing I really liked your speed running video that sets it apart from others like summoning salt is the running counter of all the top runners as a background. Shows how close everyone is together and new people joining the scene. As a lover of speedrunning docs, this one is excellent and i'm def subbing for more!
