Trivia

  • The Super Cable Boy speedrun attempt came about when Rick provided commentary for an inaugural speedrun race of the game on the Speedgaming Twitch channel immediately after its release. Neither of the two participants in the race managed to complete a full run, leading Rick to decide to set an any% time himself a few days later. His run, with a time of 1:44:51, was the first Super Cable Boy run logged on speedrun.com, and briefly the any% world record. It held this record for a single day before being broken by Hydrei, with a time of 1:19:27.
