Secret Swamp - Red Coins
Ztars of the Ztupid
Any version except katze's nerf

Over 2 weeks of deperssion are finally over.
Back then I was sure this star can't be done, because I couldn't get the third red savestateless at all and the one next to the secret is insanely inconsistent as well. After trying for a long time I came up with strats that at least sometimes avoid the horrible collision.
As you can see I made 2 routes. One that does the hardest red early (light blue) and one that does the hardest red last (dark blue). I got the star with the hardest red last, but that route also gave me my worst choke, which made me quit sm64 for a few days. But I felt very unsatisfied not getting the star after countless chokes already, so I decided I want to try again.
My problem was I had absolutly no motivation for attempts, so I was basically only practicing, which was just a waste of time. At some point I decided to stream this again and finally ended my suffering after a few more pretty bad chokes.
Thanks to everyone who supported me during this grind ❤️ ~katze789
