The verifier request has now been closed. Thanks to everyone who applied.
As the title suggests, we are looking for people who would want to verify runs for HN1:AR, category extensions is also an option given in the form. While the queue is good/non-existent for most of the time, long term, we would need some activity for the verification. Never know if the speedruns for the game get popular again, it would be greatly appreciated to fill out the form below.
https://forms.gle/JAHi6KELRaGzqsCN7
Please also join the discord server if you haven't already, getting to know you is one of the key priorities.
Remember, only 3 people may become a verifier as more aren't neseccerily needed.
Rules Update
If you're in the HN:AR Speedrunning Server Discord then you already know about this, but to be short every World Record run for v1.0+ now requires a raw file. Legacy World Record runs do not require it, except for the Any% categories. Old runs will not be changed in any way, but all the new runs will require raw files.
Playtest / Unreleased versions
The_Crowinator has shared some of the Playtest builds / Unreleased builds with me, they have now been archived and they will make it's way onto leaderboards. However only Revised Beta v1.2 and v1.9 will be seperate categories, the v1.0 Playtest builds will count for v1.0 due to them (as far as I'm aware) not having too many changes.
Huge thanks to The_Crowinator for sharing those builds. It is greatly appreciated. If you also wish to see all builds of HNAR (most of them are lost), you may do so here.

Update 8/28/2025: As of recent times, the HNAR games server has been nuked and deleted completely.
We've moved from the official HNAR games discord. Mainly so JayTheFrog can't look what strategies we do and for more freedom overall. All of the new news will be posted there (they will also be posted here but with a bit of a delay), aswell as polls for some other stuff. Anyways, the new discord invite link is listed under the "Discord" button, or alternatively via this invite link here:
Category Extensions are now a thing, cool i suppose. Most of the main categories will be moved there (death% etc.) and also more categories outside of just these will also be added there. Soon enough there will be related tab and "Category Extension" tab on this page, but until then it'll be linked here:
As of some recent events where NateEMG turned out to be ableist and homophobic (tweet here). Because of this he has been removed from the moderation team of both HNAR games, aswell as with that the Discord invite link has changed, please join the new server that the developers of HNAR has made (#speedruns channel), and please either leave the NateEMG Productions Discord server (if you're in it), and if you're not then just don't bother joining.
Also because of this the 3.0 update for this game has been cancelled therefore latest patch will stay being 2.3, plate clip is gonna stay here forever now (unless 3.0 update gets packaged and released by devs who were working on this prior).
Anyways i hope you all have a great day, and don't end up being like Nate.
New discord invite can be found on top of the page under the "Discord" button or directly via this invite link: https://discord.gg/FhVF4R2ufz.
\\ why
Instead of now also being able to just respawn at the normal place where you would usually spawn, you now MUST respawn at the house. Otherwise the run will be rejected.
(This does not apply for any other category outside of Death%)
NOTE: THIS IS NO LONGER VALID AS THERE IS NOW A SUB CATEGORY TO HOUSE OR NEW GAME SPAWN.
