Now, since we entered this room through less than traditional methods, when we leave we are going to a less than traditional place, but one that is much closer to our end goal.

From here, you need to perform a floor drop by falling off the ledge and pressing whip within a couple frames of falling, this will allow you to pass through the floor below you.

Doing this again at the right time will let you drop through 2 floors.

You'll need to be in about this position after you buy the stake and then turn left. This triggers the screen transition, but since there isn't technically a door here, you get spat out elsewhere.

Next, you need to jump right before Simon is pushed into the water, but after he gets pushed far enough to the right.

Get pushed too far and you'll be unable to purchase the oak stake, and you'll be too high for the second part of the trick

Not far enough and you wont be able to screen transition

The first part involves positioning the screen so that you can use these moving blocks to push Simon *almost* through a screen transition zone.

One we are most definitely not supposed to be in.

After wrapping up some Castlevania 2 Simon's Quest practice today, and seeing this trick in the World record run... I had to figure out how it worked.

So i reverse engineered it. 😄

I started learning the Castlevania 2 Simon's Quest Any% speedrun between matches of Mortal Kombat XL with the homies. This means I was playing on leverless, and I wonder if it's worth switching to pad for my attempts. 🤔

An afternoon out with the Gameboy Camera

Big yawn 🥱

I have been inspired to make colour Gameboy Camera pics.

I'm just trying to get the hang of it tonight.

First attempt is a little janky, but at least I know I can do it.
