Date: May 9th, 2025 6:53 PM Author: adventurous kitty cat toaster mario's programmers had to use a special memory allocation technique for objects like the double-sized spinning flame bar, since it exceeded the parameters for standard-sized objects. speedrunners use glitches related to the memory properties of oversized game objects for that reason.
