I've been speedrunning the game and I have livesplit to time it. The thing is, every time the In game time adds me some seconds, in one of my runs it added me like 40 seconds. I believe that the in game timer starts at the menu, not when the run really starts after pressing "new game". In my last run I've timed myself in 8:43, but the in game timer got 8:47. what is the good time here? The video:
I mean, I don't think time in the main menu or loading time should count for the run, but IDK I'm new here
Wow. Awesome new strategy! I don't know how how the in game time works. We are in the process of testing that right now. Until we understand it better all runs are going off of in game time. We are also still working out which categories should be used and your run actually qualifies for both unrestricted and wall-clip. Hopefully that will be ironed out a little more in the future. For now, you are welcome to join the discord if you want to be a part of the discussion. Congratulations on the run and the new strategy!
I did some testing and I'm confident that you are correct. Timing seems to start on the main menu, not when starting a new game. We are going to have to discuss it and figure out what timing method everyone wants to use for the future.
After consideration, the final rules for this game's speedrun category have been decided. Please refer to the category rules on the leaderboard for details.
Notably, the "Unrestricted" category now permits keybind and cancel the previous ban on rule of "main menu quit" of another category.
