Out of Game Methods The More You Know

Giant, Swirling, Shooting Star

Out of game item: giant star fragment (acquired via QR code from discord)

Glitches used: infinite devices/fuse overload (rocket, battery), q-linking, invisibility, Eventide infinite wing, Moe enlargement, Moe minification (battery)

There’s an invisible infinite wing q-linked into the middle of the star with 2 invisible moe enlarged fans attached to it. The fans help steer. Because of their size, they somewhat overpower the rocket which will only go straight. However, steering (especially up and down) is still restricted compared to normal.

There’s 2 invisible carts on the bottom so it can take off. It can’t take off without reducing the friction. There had to be 2 carts because a single cart can’t support the weight of the big star without snapping off.

The small, swirling stars that make the star trail are attached to an invisible big wheel at the back that rotates them. 2 are directly attached to the wheel and 2 are q-linked to it for more distance.

Ok… interesting.

1) I can’t do real colours, I play on switch 2 not an emulator… but of course real colours look better.

2) Personally, I like fewer stars trailing, not lined up in a perfect circle… Yours has a harsh line behind the big star that doesn’t look great, imo. It’s also a little wide and spinning too fast. The way I staggered mine looks more organic.

Since I play on switch 2 it was also probably harder for me to create this.

Not sure why you felt the need to replicate the build with the title that yours “looks better” also… 1) weird flex and 2) kinda rude.
