Skipping Bowser Jr in BOWSER'S FURY: What happens/ IS IT POSSIBLE Challenge? By ZXMany

After, you collect the first cat shine in bowler's, fury, you'll, see bowler jr down here, crying out for help. When you go down and talk to him, he joins you for the rest of the game. This made me wonder two things. First, is it possible to skip bowler jr and, second of all, what would happen if you could skip past bowler jr, because all throughout the game, bowler jr follows you, you can ask him to help you collect coins and every time you get a cat shine. He pops up beside you in the animation that plays, so what would happen if you could collect a cat shine without first unlocking bowler jr? Well we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves. So, let's first see if you can skip past bowler jr.

If you try to go around bowler jr by going into this goop, you take damage, and you can't get through the goop fast enough without dying. You might be wondering if we could get some more power, ups and power our way through this goop. At the start of the game, you can collect coins from trees and bushes, and if you get 100 coins, you get a power up like a fire flower. You can keep saving and resetting the game so that the coins come back, and you can keep collecting more coins until you get a power up, but even if you can get this power up, you still can't make it past this goop. Even if you get a star power up, you surprisingly take damage from the goop, because the star doesn't make you invincible from the goop.

Even if you do manage to get past this goop, the bowler junior cutscene, still starts once you make it across to the water here, since none of this works. That means it's time for my next strategy: creating a zero gravity mod. This is something I've done in a few games. I set Mario's gravity value to zero, so he can jump up and keep going up or if he walks off a platform, he can keep moving in the same direction until we ground pound. So now what would happen if Mario floated past bowler jr and explored the rest of the world at first, it looks like we might be able to play the rest of the game without bowler jr, but at a certain point your camera locks, your movement locks, and you can't ground pound.

You can try pressing any buttons, and you can bring up the pause menu, but you can't control Mario in any way, even if we try to make a really long detour around these islands, and we try to head to something as remote as this floating island way out here. You soon lose control of Mario and the camera. This made me a bit suspicious of something in some games. If you enter a certain area that triggers a cutscene, you can't move your character until you reach the ground and the cutscene plays. We saw this happen in several of my past paper.

Mario, the origami king videos- and it looks like this is what's happening with bowler jr here as well. Once you get within a certain area, you lose control of Mario and Mario just keeps floating in the direction that he was floating in, and normally he would just fall to the ground here. It seems, like all hope, might be lost I'd love to see what happens if you collect a cat shine without bowler jr, but we can't possibly collect a cat shine when we can't control Mario right well, we have one shot left and this idea is so crazy that it might just work what if we try to line up Mario's direction so that when he walks off a platform, he floats straight into a cat shine from the first lighthouse in the game. We have a clear path to a cat shine by the next lighthouse. This platform is definitely way too low to reach the cat shine.

The next platform- that's higher up, also looks too low. The tail of the lighthouse is looking a lot closer, but it's probably too low. If we walk off this and try to head towards the cat shine also, but what if we jump up onto the lighthouse, oh, and you want to make sure to not go into this pipe when zero gravity is turned on, or you'll float on like this forever, but let's go back to trying to skip past bowler jr. Luckily, there's an opening in the back part of the lighthouse here that you can just walk off of and just a reminder that you have to walk off to continue floating straight, because if you jump you'll keep going upwards because of how gravity works in this mod right now, if we walk off here, we might have a shot at getting to the cat shine without first saving bowler jr. How close can you get to the cat shine if you do this? Well, let me show you my first attempts from streaming this a few days ago on twitch.

TV ex money. This might work, it might not work, but this is the best shot we have. I've got to aim straight at that shine. My position and camera are locked. I don't think we're going to make it into the shine from here, but we'll get to see if it is possible, we'll see if it is possible to collect a shine without bowler jr, it's definitely possible.

It's definitely possible. Look. How close that was look. How close that was it's seriously difficult to line this up. We had so many attempts that were so close just missing slightly to the left, just missing slightly to the right.

Sometimes it looks like Mario was going to be able to just barely touch the cat shine, but he just flew past it, but I wasn't ready to give up just yet. Luckily, after a few minutes of testing different angles, history was witnessed in bowler's fury, here's what happens if you collect a cat shine in bowler's, fury without bowler jr and here's how the game behaves after that, when you save and quit, maybe we're going to be too far to left yeah, because the shine has already passed over like the middle of Mario's hat from here yeah. You know what honestly now that we're getting close. This looks like it has a lot of potential. This honestly might be it guys.

This might be it. This might be the one, oh, my god, this might be it. We will finally see what happens when Mario gets to a cat shine without bowler jr guys. I think this is it is'd be funny if we just fly through it, I'm guessing it'll either crash. I wonder if it'll crash, I wonder if we'll get bowler jr, let's see at first, I thought we'd fly by it.

Okay, I thought it wouldn't work, I'm like no we're going to fly by it. Are you kidding me? Okay, we have bowler jr, but none of my controls do anything. You are soft, blocked, wait! Okay, you could pause and exit to title screen, but none of your controls do anything. Okay, so that's what happens if you collect a cat shine without bowler jr. This is as far as you could get in the game by skipping bowler jr and wait a minute.

Now, all of a sudden bowler jr is with us. If can I go into the options? Can I go to like help from bowler jr? Oh, and it def? I guess it defaults to none. If I go give me a lot of help goes and collects those coins for us. Let's see what happens okay, so now, if we exit the game saves. So let's continue from this file and, let's see what happens? Oh, my goodness, bowler jr is still down there asking for help, even though we already have two shines.

He was just with us a moment ago. So that's kind of funny how the game treats the game thinks that we haven't been down there to help bowler jr. Yet, but let's see in our options, we have this option available. I wonder I don't know if you normally have this option available or if it only becomes available once you save bowler jr. Let's try this a lot of help.

Ask bowler jr for a lot of help, but he's not doing anything. What, if I come by here, bowler junior's, just not collecting these coins, those are junior. You said you would help a lot you're, not helping at all. What are you doing so if you get a cat shine without bowler jr, then bowler jr is added to your party and the game. Soft locks here, if you save and quit bowler jr is still down here asking for help, and you have two cat shines: it's probably possible to get a few more cat shines without bowler jr, with really precise and careful movements.

If you keep saving and quitting while you have this zero gravity, mod active. If you enjoyed this, we've done all kinds of fun stuff in bowler's theory with zero gravity, mods and other mods more videos are coming soon. Thank you so much for watching wishing all of you a fantastic day and take care everybody. You.
