Star Revenge 8: Scepter of Hope

Settings

Difficulty

Strict

Movement and star paths should feel somewhat natural in most places. If a forward jump is expected, you will have Jump, Longjump, or Sideflip available.

Reasonable

Movement, glitches, and shortcuts should be sightreadable.

Obscure

Movement and glitches might feel unclear without savestate practice, but should be consistent if you know how to do it. The path to each star could be anywhere. Some coin stars might be more tedious.

Hard

Movement and glitches might reach light kaizo difficulty, and savestate practice or a video example might be highly recommended for some skips.

Hack-specific options

BFCEAB

The password for the metal cap switch. If you don't know it (or choose not to activate this option), it will be in logic once you can access the sign in the ending stage.

RBLBFL

The solution to the maze in C6. If you don't know it (or choose not to activate this option), it will be in logic once you can stomp the Ultra block below star 1.

Level Ticket Deathwarp Cheese

CAUTION: This option might get patched at some point. If enabled, the logic might expect you to enter stages by deathwarping past levels that you don't have the tickets for.

Glitches

Bomb Clips

Your classic throw bomb clips. Used in a few places, requires Jump and Punch to use.

Corner Bomb Clips

Much easier than standard bomb clips, but much less known. Automatically in logic with "Bomb Clips" and "obscure", but you can activate them separately with the "Corner Bomb Clips" option if you only want to do this easier method.

Chuckya Clips

For entering Course 6. Only has an effect when "Major Skips" is also active.

BLJs

There's a hard BLJ from the bridge into the super block for Course 6 Star 1.

Tricks

This is a stub.

Obscure

Course 4: Raising the lava level back to level 2

For Star 4 and entering Great Mausoleam, you are intended to raise the lava level back up to level 2 after lowering it for the previous stars. With intended logic, it is required to have a wallkick to get into the room with the lava raiser box, but you can avoid entering this room by exiting the course back to lobby or by getting the stars in an alternate order.

Course 8 !-Box Tower without Long Jump

Needs: |Sideflip| or |Triple Jump|

Hard

Course 1 Jumping Over the Roofs with only Sideflip

Needs: |Sideflip|

Dive is usually needed here to make the timer (if you are missing long jump or jump). But is barely possible with only sideflip if you are fast enough.

Course 3 Climbing the Building with Backflip and Wallkick

Needs: |Backflip| and |Wallkick|

You can use a backflip into a wallkick with arches to get around the geometry inside the building up to the star.

Course 7 Flying over the meadows without Wing Cap

Needs: |Super Badge| and |Wallkick| and |Long Jump| and |Ground Pound| and (|Jump| or |Backflip| or |Sideflip|)

If you take the path where the super badge is and go to the big wooden platform, you can long jump and wallkick to get under the platform where the star is.

Course 8 Lava Valley of the Reds without Wing Cap

Needs: |Wallkick| and (|Long Jump| or |Double Jump|) and |Jump| and |Kick| and (|Long Jump| or |Slidekick|)

Glitches

Bomb Clips

Course 3 Secret of the Pillar Room without Ultra Badge

After getting ontop of pillar room with either a triple jump wallkick or pressing the blue switch, you can lure a bob-omb into the back left corner and have it push you inside the room.

Chuckya Clips

Course 6 Light Chuckya via water

Automatically in logic with "Chuckya Clips" and "obscure". Obtain light chuckya in Course 6 by walking off the corner of the plank and getting grabbed as Chuckya lands. Reference video: https://youtu.be/exp5DVY5kBU?t=28
