Tape to Tape Speedrun Competition (with Prizes!)

A Kao community member - @rumii has announced a bounty in Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2. All you have to do is get a time in the 45:XX range (loadless/LRT). So pretty much get a brand new world record and $1000 USD will be yours!

# Rules

# Game & Category

The game in question is *[Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2](https://www.speedrun.com/kao2)* - **the digital version** which means the 2019 re-release which is on *Steam.* There are many differences between the retail and digital versions - that's why there are separate categories on leaderboards.

Originally a 2003 Polish 3D platformer game released on PC and consoles (GCN, PS2, Wii, & Xbox). It's safe to say it's still the best entry in the series with the most valuable WR to achieve. The game takes a young kangaroo named Kao on a journey to save his animal friends from an evil poacher.

Now we'll focus on the category - **Any% Digital Version**. It is exactly how it sounds like. You got to beat the game from a fresh save, using the digital Kao 2.

# Time to learn

Thankfully the community has made some helpful media for beginners like tutorials and such.

Like this improvised tutorial by the former world record holder - @CubemasterXD (a bit outdated):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2f7u5nY4yuE

Or this compilation of all skips (less outdated than the previous video):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0hp-adxcpM

# Notable New Tech

On leaderboards, a keen eye could sight this variable - *quads/quadless.* What does it mean?

That's a pretty fresh discovery that allows runners to perform a chain of jumps when they aren't supposed to be able to jump. Normally you can only jump twice. It is a platformer game. Try guessing how many new skips or route changes happened since this discovery :)

Here are quad jumps in action on the 4th level of the game - River Raid

# Summary

Obtain a sub 46:00 loadless time in *[Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 - Any% Digital Version](https://www.speedrun.com/kao2)* to win $1000 USD**!** Only the first person wins. You have until the end of the year!

Any questions? Join [the Discord server!](https://discord.com/invite/mvErQShpTE)

Cheers and good luck

I was confused on why there was no sound until I realized that my phone was connected to my buggati

No. I would like this thread to load properly.
