Misleading title; SMM's "final" level creator came right out and said it was a trolling joke they let go a little too far. And also acknowledged the person who completed the non-troll "final" SMM level.

Exactly. I really hope the drama chasing shit doesn't bring down a shitstorm on this guy. Everyone actually involved is cool about what's happened.

This strange confluence of events is the result of an admission by Ahoyo, the creator of Trimming the Herbs, who came clean Friday evening regarding his use of automated, tool-assisted speedrun (TAS) methods in creating the level.
"I’m sorry for the drama [my level] caused within the community, and I regret the ordeal," Ahoyo wrote on the Team 0% Discord and social media. "But at least it was interesting. However in the end the truth matters most. Congratulations to Team 0% for their well-earned achievement!"
