Expected this to be really chill, since it's just c1, but that wasn't quite the case. The normal stars were challenging, but nothing too bad. However I had quite some trouble with reds. I did the house first, but I constantly died to the beginning of the other part, even tho that part went fine when I did the normal stars. I was scared of choking the house, but I decided to switch routes. However I still died a bunch at the beginning, multiple times in the tunnel to collision I never hit in practice. Luckily I didn't have any super bad chokes on the star. But still I think this was the first star of the hack I had a bad time with. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfjOjEiabFM

For some reason OW1 reds add a star in OW2 on star display, but guess it doesn't really matter.

I didn't want to stream, since I only had around 40 min left, but I wanted to some meme attempts to practice the spawn a bit, but somehow this star went down within less than 12 minutes of attempts.
Nevertheless this star is very hard. That jump to the cannon is so precise, it took me ages to get even once and the fight is also super chokeable.
The frustrating part is that you basically have to do this star at the end of reds, so I am not sure if I will go for them. You have to do this entire climb twice and also have to do all the other pathes, but since you need MC, I won't do it anytime soon anyway.

Probably not the intended strats, but I couldn't come up with anything else. Getting the penguin where you want him to go takes a while sometimes, so every death past the star spawn is very annoying, especially when you die to the very last jump YEP

15:20 Filler Star
20:41 B1 Filler Star
5 out of 6 stars were fine. S1 is kinda challenging and it's kinda annoying having to do the entire star again + 1 extra jump for the filler star. The buffed whomp star would be close to impossible if there wasn't a fixed warp, but luckily there is. There is still that one star that wasn't fine and you might me able to guess which one it is based on the timestamps. So let the rant begin.
why why why why why WHY WHY the fuck does this star exist. Even after getting it, I still say this is the worst star I've ever done and no that's not an overstatement in the slightest. I know it might not even look that absurd in the succesful attempt, because I got the most insane rng, so I still had 3 sec to spare. But getting this took me 6 hours of attempts and doing the same few seconds for 6h without success and without even having the chance to improve is so tilting and frustrating. I have no idea how I clutched it out in the end, since I was literally about to give up and already was ready to host someone.

I did a few meme sessions of s1, but without success. At some point I actually put a lot of time into properly practicting the star and on the next day I got it within 4 minutes. The next star I learned and got in the same session as well. Still died 4 times to the final wallkicks, but then I changed my strat a bit and got it pretty much right away.
I really wanted to go for s5, cause I couldn't believe a less than 5 min star is almost an entire tier harder than td reds, but well... that star is WAY harder than td reds. Most jumps are so brutally inconsistent. Especially slopes and half pipe is absurd. And all of that is only the spawn for s3...

Certainly not free, but a rather easy level compared to other stages in this hack. Maybe also because I found a strat to skip the hardest part of the level. Really surprised I got the double firsty of the BQP star first try after taking quite a while in practice.

First hack of the 12 hacks of christmas series and it's already pretty challenging. First I didn't want to do all 5 rooms in a row, but you can't die in the final room, so it's basically only 4 in a row and the first 2 rooms are very easy, so I decided to uncba and do it stateless.
