from A Link to the Past Objectively Better Categories Marathon 2018
Max% Rain means get as many items as possible while keeping the rain from the beginning of the game. The rain only stops when you save Zelda, so Glan does tons of glitches to get most of the items in the game without leaving the early game phase.
I love this run for many reasons
- soothing rain sounds
- doesn’t save Zelda
- huge variety of glitches while still getting to see lots of the game (Max% means this is almost a 100% run)
- great commentary
and not too short or too long, nice run length (spoiler)
1:24:15.69
here are the full category rules from SRC
- Rain must play for the entire run (with the exception of the effect caused by opening Misery Mire). This means the game phase can not be advanced past 0 or 1; that is, you may not rescue Zelda or defeat Agahnim 1.
- You must defeat all bosses (except Agahnim 1) and collect every crystal and pendant.
- You must acquire every attainable piece of equipment, all heart pieces and containers, and half magic. Duping hearts does not count toward collection.
- For reference, the following items cannot be acquired in rain:
- Bumper Cave Heart Piece
- Digging Game Heart Piece
- Pyramid Heart Piece
- Zora’s Domain Heart Piece
- Purple Chest Bottle
- Bridge Hobo Bottle
- Quake Medallion
- Flippers
