Introduction
No Cape, No Starworld is the "No Cape" counterpart of No Starworld. The spirit of the category is really simple : we need to beat bowser without using cape and without going through Starworld.
You can find the category page here.
Here are the official rules of the category :
- Time begins the frame Mario appears in the opening cutscene.
- This is 2.2 seconds after selecting 1 player game.
- Time ends on the frame that Peach appears outside of Bowser's Clown Car.
- No Starworld
- No Arbitrary Code Execution
- No Cape
- No Orb/Cloud
- Penalties: If a cape is obtained, die as soon as possible without utilizing it.
For more info on the major glitches that are banned in this category, see : Orb ; Cloud and Unintended Sprite Spawning.
The main reason for banning those glitches is arbitrary. Runners consider that the run is more interesting that way. Allowing the Orb glitch leads to a lot of backtracking and a lot of lame ways to kill a run (the game can crash for example).
The penalty rule is more of a race rule but it also helps that the run can be finished even if the player grabs a cape. It's actually pretty rare. The biggest threats are the roulette blocks.
To end this part, the no ACE rule is pretty common is main categories that are not credit warp. Here's a link just in case you're curious about it : ACE
