for the past few months, any time livesplit auto updates (well really when a new update is available and the popup shows up), livesplit will crash as soon as the auto splitter starts. updating it through the app does not fix this, my only solution so far has been to download the latest version through the website every time and then open my splits and layouts from file and re-set all my global hotkeys. I don't understand if the problem is the auto splitter or livesplit or what, but I thought I'd start here. it's very inconvenient.

you gotta add like any% or something to it. there's a level categories thing under the normal categories, it's cause sometimes you can do like 100% IL's or secret exit vs normal exit or whatever in other games.

i got a bad anxiety tower run I wanna submit

livesplit is not auto detecting an autosplitter based on the game title, would be nice to use since the board looks like it's being run on in game time.

guess it's gonna depend on what it is, haven't done any myself so I don't know, just been running any% and by extension husbandman. could just be like the any% route if it's faster, idk

I thought it was just dont die, but some runs the glitch state doesnt activate and I got lasers, good aim shooty knight, and skeletons all over me on 0 death.

I thought it was a just run forward lol trick, but I'm getting shot every time. is there a setting I need to enable or what?

I did a run of the 2021 game and I'd rather not make a new leaderboard. got a video on my twitch

Ideas for other categories: 100%, Pacifist (achievement is less than 10 kills), All Bosses

Give me a video of the run and you get the category

flash is no longer supported, so I dont think there's a way to play the game with the archive anymore.

If anyone wants to run this game, but like wants to kill all the dragons or something, video it, dm it to me, I make category ez.

I'm thinking other category ideas might be like all bosses, 100% (bruh), all trophies, potentially you find how to clip into the shop walls to skip having to walk through the forest and the run gets super short and we split any% to a no oob. but yeah vid 1st

https://www.speedrun.com/ultrakill_category_extensions <--

Here's a place to put any meme runs, or runs that don't currently fit into the main leaderboard here. Notably I put a No OOB category in category extensions, which was requested. Currently I have all the messed up eye pain video settings as categories (36p, modern art, indie art), and a few other runs I've seen people do.

Some categories in category extensions may be included in the main board in the future, such as All Bosses or No OOB, dependent on mod team decision, popularity, and further updates to the game increasing the differences between a category and current Any% or All P Rank runs.

If your category does not yet exist: please link me videos of your runs here, in the category extension forums, or through site dm's and they will be added to the category extension board.

Most of the movement tech in this speedrun are intended game mechanics. Many started off unintended like slam storage and punching your own bullets, but they have been kept in the game because they're cool. Like Celeste, the game will not teach you about it until later in the game, heck, the game doesnt teach you how to do a dash jump until 2-1, but there's a lot of good dash jumping levels in Limbo. In game tutorials for some mechanics will likely be added in later acts, but for now, watch runs, read the guide, etc.

Other things like the 1-3 oob is not a glitch, but an abuse of the game optimization deloading the room and the door close radius not being small enough. Skipping enemy arena triggers is also not a glitch, please skip the 0-4 final arena, the 0-2 arena (hardest one tbh), and whatever others you can find. The 2-2 explosion boost around the railgun room is also not a glitch, it's like 1-3, the game deloads rooms based around doors opening and closing for optimization reasons and it's deloaded until you open the door (from the wrong side, but hey, lust is a very open layer tbh).

The list of glitches is smaller than you think:

Door Clips: sliding into the level geometry on doors at a slight angle to the left or right of perpendicular to the wall to fall out of bounds. Used notably in 2-3 & 3-1. The clip in 0-1 is similar, however the recent patch made it easier to do, so it's now bordering on intended game mechanic.

Door Checkpoints: loading a checkpoint in close proximity to doors can put the player out of bounds, deload certain floors, and load them in an incorrect place. Was used in 0-2 on patch 1.05, but on the --Early Access-- patch, it is not used in 0-2 due to the end level trigger pipe being given collision; however, the 1st door load is still used to deload the floor. Is used on the current patch in certain 3-1 strats.

Skull Warping: punching a skull key then pausing and loading checkpoint mid punch will let you keep the skull, allowing you to warp it with you to the last used checkpoint. Used notably on 1-1 and 2-4.

Honestly that's it, just 3. If you're planning on doing glitchless runs, please dont limit yourself thinking it's a glitch when it's not.

Feel free to add more in the comments, but here's some current tech being used that you might not find from just playing the game.

Grenade/Explosion Boosting: This one is really basic, but runs have been submitted without them. Use the shotgun alt fire on the ground to move fast. Usually you look down while moving forward and it will boost you forward and very slightly up. Also you can use a grenade on a piece of glass above you when you're contacting it/near contacting it and it will break the glass and boost you upwards. There's also the full pump charge/ shotgun explosion boosts faster and can be used mid air, but does more damage. Generally, explosion boosts will move you towards where your camera is pointing if grounded and opposite the camera if airborne or something is in front of you. This trick is ubiquitous, you will see it in basically every level. The Blue does 35 damage, Green does 50, and you have 100 health, so you only get 2 blue, 1 green, or 1 green and 1 blue per checkpoint unless you damage an enemy.

Slam Jump: Do a midair slam, then immediately jump. Gives decent height without having to lose health from an explosion boost. Used most notably in 0-4 to skip the final arena trigger. The downside is it's not the fastest form of movement, but it costs no health and is quicker to perform than slam storage and more useful in lower ceiling rooms.

Slam Storage: Do an air slam and a wall jump at the same time, and as soon as you hit the ground, do a normal jump and you jump very high and fast. It's used most notably in 0-3 for the developer intended skip straight to the boss. It's faster than grenade boosts, but only goes straight up unless you combo with whatever air strafing or shotgun explosion boost you combo with it. it can also be combined with a slide to move quickly horizontally.

Bunny Hopping: Since the new patch, you can conserve momentum by doing more slide jumps when you hit the ground in a small window. Used most notably in the Chapter 2 boss hallways. It can be chained with most other forms of horizontal movement.

Sure, send me a video of your run and maybe a short description through some kind of dm (envelope in top corner, twitter, discord, whatever).

Types of runs I'm expecting eventually: P-Rank, All Secrets, All Challenges, 100% (gl with that one), or something else. Hit me with whatever surprise you have in store.

Oh, and fill up all the (empty) there pls. GL

They patched out at least jungle skip, so if someone has the old patch backed up, can you put it into dropbox or something and link it in resources (and ping me).

Hi · ◡ ·

If you've done a run of something in this game that doesn't fit into an existing category, record it on video and dm me either here, on twitter, or in discord and tell me the parameters for it.

So far all I've done is any% and all achievements, and that's what I saw people do in the demo for the game.

Other categories I've thought of: Unlocking the Secret Game, Secret Game Any%, categories involving unlocking secret friends (like the computer wizard in museum, the treat friends in qt, all the insanity in kouen, etc), All Secret areas (like the joel zone in qt or the art section in museum), vargshroom% in museum (it's really well hidden in a physics object and requires getting the 3 keys).

If you have a run like that doesn't fit into either any% or all achievements, send me the video and a ruleset and it will be added. I've set up the board in a way that I can add categories or variables for 1 specific sub game over the others if you have a qt/museum/kouen specific category. Also if you have something like the unintended/intended thing for qt I did, yep, can do that to on a per main category basis if it's similar.

have fun · ◡ ·

I've had runs for a category that goes to every possible floor in 1 run and kill every boss on each floor. 10 floors 10 bosses.

I've been sitting on it for most of the year tbh.

Can the board overhaul be done already so I can submit this thing? Or would we need a category extensions board? Cause I don't know how to fit my run in.

My run was done with turbo and rainbow modes turned on as well, so I don't even know what to do with it.

I'm working on any%/B ending routing right now and rather than submit a new board and convince the admins there should be two blasphemous boards, why not use this one.

Prototype categories can be moved to misc, cats can be added for each ending and 100%, and the url can be changed to just blasphemous and remove prototype from it.

If not, reply no here so i can just link this in the new board application and speed things along.

Each level has an in game timer on it, so it seems like something that could be run. I'm personally not too interested in it, but if anybody else is let me know in this thread so I can add all the levels, cause there are a lot of them (30).

Record a video of your IL (any of them) and post it here, I will add IL's after.
