Yeah that was my idea oh well. What does UWP mean btw? Shouldn't it just be WP?
I think it's not that bad atm. Maybe make a separate whole speedrun leader board for it? Like Ballz (Windows Phone) I've seen some other games do this when the game varies a lot on a certain platform
If you watch shot 13 on BrokeSatan's 25 run and focus on the red triangle block on the left you can see two balls that hit it and bounce off in an angle that wouldn't happen if it was a square so I'm certain they do act like triangles. This would also mean that in two rows next to each other, if a triangle block is directly above a square block it is possible hit the balls into the triangle's long side and bounce it down to hit the square and back to the hit the triangle again etc. Yet I still need to see proof of this and this is impossible in the original version as you need a gap/another row between two squares above one the other to do this method.
Edit: To clarify, this ball travels like this because of the triangle
If the triangle was a square/acted like a square it would have gone like this
As you can see the outcome of shots and ball ricochets vary greatly with a block being a square or triangle.
Interesting how different it is on WP. I think it should be a separate category since there are triangle blocks which affects gameplay and strategy plus it is possible for two (maybe even more) ball items to spawn on a row whereas the original version it is only one per row. These are only two easily noticeable differences so far, there could be far more internal mechanics that could vary like RNG and ball physics, maybe even ball speed? I think a separate category is the most appropriate solution.
Thoughts?
Edit: In fact, two ball items can even spawn on the very first row

Thanks mate :)
Is there no way to quote in speedrun forums? That's a shame =(
I do speedrun games I really like, the main one being pokemon gold (haven't submitted a run yet) which is a long game which is why I was seeking for a shorter game and I just tend to like jrpg style like the final fantasys but they are always so long. I'll have a look at shining soul and boktai =) I've played fire emblem before, didn't really like it though. thanks for the recommendations!
I suppose they sort of are but I'm talking more traditional JRPG style :)
I was wondering if anyone knows of any RPG games that are short to speedrun? I was thinking around the 1hr mark, 1hr 30 max. and not with glitches. Preferably for GB/GBC/GBA
Thanks =)
Yeah sounds about right. I timed in Windows movie maker just now and made it out as 10.4 exactly, but yours is probably right since movie maker isn't as accurate and only goes to two decimal places
Hey Nrrillinthas you should add this to the Recording guide for the Android section
