World of Goo History WRs

Thanks Liyuan for uploading all the history records that we can trace when building this website!
This page lists all records ever broken in game's history. Some of the records may be missing, as it is difficult to find early WRs. If you know about records that are not on this list, please contact us with any available information.
You can filter records by level, record type, and player.

Burning Man 43 Balls ptr231 May 18, 2011 [Link] (D)
This takes advantage of a glitch in the game where if you click really fast on an attached detachable ball, it'll cause it to get stuck at the spot it was clicked and always pull back towards there when moved. The more you click on it, the stronger it'll become, i.e., the less you'll be able to move it. This force comes in handy for ripping structures apart.

This takes advantage of glitch in the game where if you click on a balloon really fast it makes it stick in one spot and spring back when moved.

Announced on 7th April with a screenshot. Video made on 9th.

The seeds of this record were planted 2 years prior - here's a comment by Tumble on 2D Boy forum dated 24 Nov 2009:
"I was playing hang low and I think I found another instance of the shaking bug without the single strands. I'll provide an image soon. Again I don't know how it can be used but as long as we are learning more."
He never did show an image, and put the find on the back burner until revisiting it in 2011 after a year hiatus. Here's the reveal on goofans 'New Records' thread:
"Well since PeterB took my Tower of goo records away I had to come back with something and here it is. Hang Low 30 goos collected.

Sorry its not in screen but I wasn't recording and Vista doesn't let me print screen. I can describe the start or even show you a video of the start. I have already shown it Pavke although the way I did it this time was a little different.

In fact here is the video, you can rip them all off it's just random. I got lucky and they all come off."
Albino Pokey replies: Vista should print screen... Or do you have a keyboard without the key itself?
"Nope I hit print screen and instead of the image like I got in XP I just get a black screen.. So I had to load fraps afterwards. I'll probably end up recording it at some point for Wogfan."
