Hello NOTC Runners,

About a week ago, version 1.05 was released. With it came with new features; new cutscenes, animations, texture sprites, your own home, multiple nights, and other stuff. With all of these new features, this leaderboard system had to be reworked. As of now, Any%, Any% Glitchless, and Fired% are all compatible for versions 0.01-0.04 and version 1.05. I didn't bother with Help% and Restock%, as they are really just gimmick categories. When you go to submit a run, another box will be displayed, where all you have to do is select which version of the game you are running on. It's also really easy to tell which version you are playing on, so if you miss it I will fix it for you. There are however some issues.

There are some bugs with both versions of the game. Players on Speedruncom and on Itchio are experiencing glitches and crashes. Game not loading in, npcs running and falling into each other, boxes stuck in the ground, etc. One runner on version 1.05 accidentally got the manager to spawn as soon as he entered the store. The creator of this game, germfood, is aware of the bugs and is going to fix them as soon as he can. With future updates, I will likely extend it with version 1.05, unless there are some massive changes.

Another issue to look over is the nights system. Yes, Night of the Consumers went FNAF on us and has five nights to complete. At the moment, there is only one night. With future nights being added, I will have to update the leaderboards yet again. There is also a new ending at the moment for version 1.05. When you finish your shift, you end back at your apartment, go to bed, and the game ends there. Here is how I am going to verify the runs, and this is for Any% and Any% Glitchless: Timer starts like normal, when you hit start at the menu. The timer now ends when you get to a full black screen when going to bed. Since there are going to be future nights, this makes the most sense for me.

I think I covered just about everything. The leaderboards for Any%, Any% Glitchless, and Fired% are now separated by which version you play. I mentioned earlier that a runner accidentally got the manager to spawn in much earlier than intended. This will go under Any%. It's unknown how it happened, so if anyone would like to glitchhunt, be my guest. If anybody would like to discuss anything or has any questions, feel free to drop them down under this post, or dm me on Discord. Good luck runners!
