@ParrotDash sweep
Map: https://gamebanana.com/mods/379726 (Parrot Dash)
Total: 3:01:38 hours | 2976 deaths
Enjoyability: 93/100
this map is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was one of those people kinda doubting the enjoyability of this map cause I've heard plenty of people saying the map is good except final. They were only slightly correct, but I did enjoy most of that room. If I didn't die to the heart, this would probably be one of my favorite celeste maps ever (95/100) but I got pretty tilted from that death especially when it took me an extra 40 minutes for the clear. Keep in mind I used golden strats, which is probably another reason why my clear is so damn fast for a 3*. Also, I did technically have like 3.5 hours on this map, but 1: this was before SJ released so like more than a whole year ago (when I was bad), 2: i only managed to clear the first room, and 3: I CLEARED ROOM 1 IN 6 MINUTES ANYWAYS. I firmly believe this should be lowered to something like high 2* idk. But that being said, I haven't really cleared any low 3* maps at all, 2 of them are mauve/nyoom which is my worst skillset and another is goddamn niatnuoM raebretaW which is 50 minutes long 😭
I'm only kinda going for sweep, but I don't think anyone is realistically able to achieve it right now with the recent updates and additions to hard list. 5B Funnier Version is a huge road block for me, but mainly cause desert seeker looks soo, soooooooo boring and stress inducing. Another map is Waterbite, which I have some progress on (halfway thru CP2) but it's super boring and mentally draining.
Now I've seen sooooo many people on Celestecord be like "if you don't like the maps on hist just don't play them," and for me personally, it's not that simple. Like obviously I know that, and I think other people sorta aiming for these clears knows this also. I still don't know exactly why I want hard list sweep (or if I even want it at all), but I think part of it is simply to prove something of myself. Maybe just to prove that in at least one thing in my life, I am one of the best preforming in. Honestly I could write a whole essay (or maybe video?) on this kinda topic and what it means to me but I'll just stop right here. Basically, please make high quality maps with good gameplay (this is literally impossible but idc at least try).
