I know I haven't even done a speedrun of this mod or even Undertale itself, but in the current patient mode you are still allowed to take the speed upgrade in the dog room (idk what it's called, it's right before snowdin town).

I was thinking of there being a category where you can only move at the standard speed, since "it is the intended way to play this mod, but it does take some patiance"

The octodad series (yes there are two games) hasn't been run for the past few years apart from some runs that were more of a joke than anything else. Just want to see more than 3 active players :/ anyone interested?
