SGDQ 2016 Pitches

1) Star Fox Assault:
Est: 0:50:00

3rd Person Shooter that's heavily reliant on tight movement and good execution, through use of 3 different means: the Arwing Ship, Landmaster Tank, and control of Fox on foot. Bronze is the fastest category, giving less objectives to complete and having enemies deal less damage to you. Some levels have death warps in them, which increase the difficulty and require great health management throughout to complete.

2) 007 Agent Under Fire:
Est: 0:50:00

Classic 007 game on the Gamecube and the 1st on the console too. The run is mostly dependent on good movement, aiming, and timing. It's jam-packed with many cutscene skips, sequence breaks, and small time savers, such as using explosive barrels to get on invisible walls and moving diagonally against walls for more speed. Operative is the easiest difficulty, but that doesn't mean this run is easy

3) Kirby Super Star Ultra:
Est: 2:20:00

While not as glitchy as KSS, KSSU offers a wide variety of movement options, power variety, and fast paced execution throughout. There are also 4 new game modes. Of note Meta Knightmare Ultra lets you play as Meta Knight and is extremely execution based with very tight point routing. Revenge of the King is another mode that's similar to Dream Land Extra Mode with more enemies and unique powers. 100% beats all game modes, gets all powers in MWW, all chests in GCO, and hits 2 switches in DynaBlade

4) Kirby Nightmare in Dream Land:
Est: 0:45:00/0:50:00

Very execution heavy 2D platformer and also a remake of Kirby's Adventure. There's a lot of very precise movement and tricks throughout that are both clenching to the player and the viewer. There's lots of power variety in the run, including using Ball a lot, a power many casual players overlooked. Offering as a bid war between Any% and 100%. It can also be a race if Halodude862 submits, as our times are very close and we are both pretty consistent at the game.

5) Super Mario 64 DS:
Est: 1:30:00

"Reimagining" of Super Mario 64 where we can play as Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario in addition to Mario. Each character has their own unique skills that are used to acquire Stars very quickly, such as Luigi's backflip which breaks many Stars with its height and distance properties. The game isn't as broken as the original, but still has a high skill ceiling and is hard to control very well, something many players struggled with casually too. 80 Star is the equivalent of 70 Star in SM64.
