Have fun! I wish you all luck.
We are all just trying to have fun at the end of the day.
@danielr you should post your 1:03 time, it would give me another goal to work towards. Hopefully its for challenge stage 1 and not extra life 1, I already have a 1:03 pending for extra life 1. :(
Edit: I just beat the time, 1:01 now.
You want to get rid of the eight challenge stages? or do you want to get rid of challenge stage 1 because extra life 1 is by default faster? either way I do not agree, I believe both categories are fair and serve their own purpose. Our opinions are flipped anyway, I believe challenge stage should be the standard baseline while extra life is there if you want to do it.
As far as the rule changes go, I think getting rid of the double ship and single ship was a very good choice because It was more of an annoyance than anything and it really didn't add important information about the run. You did a good job with the rule changes.
Yeah I think that's what it all comes down to, allowing runs from any difficulty. As long you're doing that and you've consistently been doing that (which you have been) then there's no real problem. Maybe change the wording of "default settings" around but that's about it.
And then address FootofGods suggestion about a 1mil run category, ill message him on discord so you guys can talk that through as quickly as possible.
Thank you for being a mod that actually cares lol.
Apologies, I uploaded new runs so I privated some runs that were obsolete so my dashboard wasn't as cluttered. I'll keep them public from now on.
As for rule changes, I don't know as much as FootofGod about the game so I cant really give an opinion, that's probably something you and him will have to figure out.
Are you saying that my runs would be invalid because I am playing on the easiest difficulty? I just used the default settings on the emulator. The emulator is the most popular one that people use, so everyone has been playing on easy.
Or are you making an argument that all difficulties should be accepted?
