Hey everyone! I'm new to speedrunning. I had been debating picking it up as a hobby for a long time, and finally caved after seeing a VOD of Darkman doing a tutorial for Strider at a GDQ on Youtube. Naturally, Strider is what I picked as my first game.

I look forward to interacting with all of you, making friends, and being a part of the community!

Welcome aboard and good luck on the runs.

I've never played Strider more than casually, how difficult is the run?
