EasySpeezy recently undertook the challenge of speedrunning Cuphead while simultaneously climbing a mountain.By duct-taping a gaming laptop to a backpack, EasySpeezy was able to play Cuphead with a wired controller by closely following behind an accomplice wearing the backpack.The team’s strategy included Easy’s brother calling out obstacles in the speedrunner’s path so he wouldn’t have to look away from Cuphead while climbing. If a particularly challenging climbing section was ahead then Easy would pause the game to focus on climbing and continue after the section had been passed.The mountain in question is Mount Mansfield, the largest mountain in the state of Vermont.
Standing at an intimidating 1,340m, this isn’t an easy feat even without playing Cuphead on the side.Easy and his companions summited Mount Mansfield at around three hours and 40 minutes into the run. At this point, he is preparing to face Rumor Honeybottoms.
After dispatching the bee queen, Easy moves on to face Dr Kahl’s Robot. However, after a few failed attempts to best the robot, he decides to descend the mountain first in order to give the game his full attention at the bottom.After reaching the bottom at six hours and 20 minutes, Easy played Cuphead in the car ride back to the hotel.

Jessica Kiang With eternal respect to Virginia Woolf, whose “A Room of One’s Own” clearly inspires the title of Ioseb ‘Soso’ Bliadze’s beautifully articulate miniature, even before a woman needs money and her own space to be able to pursue self-fulfillment, she needs to know she needs those things.
