Extremely late here, but I wasn't aware of this game even being in speedrun.com until today. Here's some categories I'd consider.

100% - Simple enough, but I doubt anyone would want to run this considering you'll be forced to level up to max for the Dedication achievement and subsequent God Is Pleased achievement.

Theater All-Out - This would make for a far more interesting run compared to The Theater since you'd have to beat all the shows and their difficulties before the Final Show instead of just doing an Untouchable run.

Arcade% - A throwback to the original FSAW where you'd beat The Theater, Theater All-Out, Reverse All-Out, The Exit Standard Mode, Nightmare Day, and Final Days 1-5 to get the gems required to unlock the memory arcade, aka the original 100% reward.

All Modes - An expansion of Arcade% which also requires beating Day 6, all routes of Factory Standard Mode, Factory Classic mode, corrupted Theater, one run of Colosseum of the First, and possibly step 7 of endgame quest. If the rest endgame quest were included in this, it would require resetting your save for each new run, since you can't repeat some of the earlier steps more than once.

Corrupted Theater - It'd be interesting to see what is possibly the most efficient method to destroy the door to escape, though I'd imagine it would involve a lot of playing one show on its highest difficulty and then resetting right away, rinse and repeat.

my recomendation of a categorys are:

the exit you start at night 1 and then timer can be stopped when you get at 6pm of day 5.

final Days same as the exit start at day 1 and then at day 5 after 6pm you can stop.

For the factory there can be 2 categorys any% or 100% for any% do atleast one of the routes and when its 6am at night 5 the time stops and for 100% do the 3 routes and when you got to 6am at night 5 of the final route the timer stops.

for the factory on classic its simple when you get to 6am of night 5 you can stop the timer

for the colosseum of the first there can be many but many cattegories like do a luigi run and after killing demon w you can stop the timer or do a cattegory for all the characters in 1 run and after you defeat demon w with the final character timer can be stoped

for endgame quest we need to think a way of how to do because that adds fnaw 1,2,3,origins and 4 including the 200% and 201% unless theres a speedrun page for fnaw 1,2,3,origins and 4 or something like that in a wayi say that with the other cattegorys are good for now

Doing modes for just The Exit, Final Days, or Factory Classic Mode aren't a good idea. All you'd have to do is not die, hit continue as soon as it pops up, and bam, you have an unbeatable time since you can't make the clock move faster.

So... are we ever getting new categories? Theater's kinda been dead for a while now, considering that the new standard to get a record is to go through Untouchable in DX (which is much harder than the original) with Mario to be able to fight Emma instead of Demon Wario, who is way, way more difficult.

All that could be improved outside of better RNG is beating it with Demon Wario since he has the same advantages as Mario and much higher damage to destroy Emma, but I don't think anyone wants to go through that just for a record.
