Any% No Disorder?

Has anyone ever thought of attempting a No Disorder run? Obviously the disorder is the way to achieve the true fastest possible run of Knytt Underground, but going through the process of mapping out a no disorder route right now, it's looking like there'd be quite a few different routes to get all the items and get to the bells efficiently. If such a run were attempted, would it be better to be a full game run, or just a run of chapter 3?

No disorder is something I thought about but never put the time in to come up with a good route. I think it would end up being a very interesting category.

As for the chapters, I'll leave that up to you. I always like full-game runs, but with Knytt Underground the first two chapters are kind of redundant. Depends what you want to run!

Mapping this is taking a hell of a long time so I totally understand why it hasn't been done yet xD but it looks like it's gonna be so damn good. When I've mapped out a route, I'd love to be able to share it on this page so others can use the resources I'm building up. When I'm done, should I just upload the images to imgur and post them in this forum? It's surprising how long this is taking actually, but I really feel it could be a great category, just from all the different skills required, and I know for sure the routing is gonna be a bomb.

Hey there mobiusman. I'm finally ready to record a run, which I'll be doing tomorrow after more practice attempts today, and I wanted to post here with a description of the category to OK it with you before I went ahead and recorded anything.

So the run I'm gonna do is Chapter 3 any% No Disorder. I decided to do only chapter 3 because as you say, the first two chapters feel kinda redundant and I also wanted to make it both more approachable to play for new runners, as well as make it as interesting to watch as possible (as all the cool shit would occur in chapter 3). Though I too would normally almost always wanna do a full-game run.

The rules would be pretty simple:

Timing starts at the white flash when you select Chapter 3 and ends when you examine the owl statue.

You may NOT use the disorder at any point in the run.

  • Does that sound good to you?

That sounds great, I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with! Good luck :)

Great :D thank you! I've managed to record a decent run and I'm gonna upload it to youtube later today. Would you be happy to create a category for me to submit it to here? I also have a map of the exact route I took: http://imgur.com/a/VkkRP

Yeah it submitted fine, I just didn't get time to watch it properly until this morning. But now I have and it was super cool! I was expecting it to be longer but your route worked out well.

England

I'm glad you think it's cool! Glad to hear it submitted fine as well xD I don't know why I thought it hadn't but I know how dedicated you are in logging in regularly so I thought I must've messed something up on my end.

I plan to optimise the crap out of the run as much as I can when I get more free time. The other day I did a (not brilliant xD) speedrun for Nifflas' latest game, Uurnog. It's much faster to run than Knytt so it didn't take as much practice. Have you heard about it? It's actually a pretty damn amazing game.

United Kingdom

I have heard about it but I haven't played it yet, thanks for the reminder!

England

Just posting to say I'm very pleased to see that the legend who did a run of the figurespace has smashed my time haha xD This new route looks to be close to the most efficient possible I'd say, but boy will it require learning how to move right.
