"beating the first 3 bombs in section 3 would allow you to start section 4. That's how i think the "Any%" category should be."

Well since it's a sub-category of the "Full Game" division i don't see it that way.

What i was referencing to is the fact that usually a Any% let you use every aspect of the game (glitchy or not) that allows you to save time. But in our case it does not allow SD...

Hello there, the next four caracters will be available soon on the vanilla game, with their set of runes for for abyss mode i guess.

Is this enough to make a few new categories ?

Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Francetiolera2 years ago

Oh neat ! Some modding speedrun should get the game more attention ^^

Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Francetiolera2 years ago

I get your point. But since a new game in not required for either of the categories, i don't think that's the problem.

About a fresh savefile: At first i thought it would be the case for the "Any%" category but it's apparently a pain to reset the game progression... that's probably a difference with other games.

Hey there, i would like to discuss a point with you :

Most of the time in the speedrunning scene, the "Any %" refers to the category allowing "anything" to reach the end as fast as possible.

But with KTANE, this category is called "All bombs (Detonation Allowed)". To be clear it's some minor adjustements, maybe not needed, but in the mindset of speedrunning :

  • "Any%" could be called "Any % (No Auto-Detonation)" or something close.
  • "All bombs (Detonation Allowed)" could be called "Any %".

I'm curious about what do you think ! See you !

Hey SusiKette, first of all you should begin by whatching 1-2 runs of each category, you will find some of the answers really quickly :)

NMG (S+Q) allows you to "Save and Quit" , making the route quicker by some seconds (on GBA, because on SNES it's a lot quicker), there is nothing else different compare to normal NMG (no S+Q).

Also you can find ressources easely on the forum on what define a "Major Glitch" playing Alttp !

I'm not a low% expert at all so i don't have anything to say about it :)

I expected to be clear ^^' bye !

Well since my favorite is A Link to the Past, i have to say go for it :p (SNES version > GBA version) But i love a lot of them, Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time are both reaaaally good, but i'm not sure if MM would be as great as a first Zelda game...

I find Wind Waker great, but as Tim said, really slow and a quest later in the game takes ages...

You can still try out Link's Awakening and/or Minish Cap :D

Hello there, first of all i want to talk about a "bonk trick" that i use at the end of the first Agahnim's fight.

I have seen about 10 videos of and a lot of streams but i never saw someone do that trick so i'll explain it (it's really trivial tho) and talk a bit more:

At the end of the animation of Agahnim's "death", if i bonk a wall with the right timing, i can warp into the Dark World while in air, keeping the momentum of the "BONK" :p So what am i doing is that i wait for the right timing and a bonk to the top wall and that makes me quickly "sliding" to the south at the end of the dialog, right after the warp.

So now i am asking: is this something known? If yes that probably means that it's not really a time saver, and that could explain why i never saw someone doing it :) It's really about the "quantity of momentum" that you kept that help you saving some frames in Dark World i suppose !

Heya everyone, i'm a 23yo member of the big speedrunning family, from France.

I casually speedrun Alttp (GBA) and Sunshine and i finally decided to register here :p

I really appreciate all the events and streams about speedrunning, and i'm here as a beginner trying to have a good time :)

Thanks for reading, bye !
