Sen has recently released a free version 2.08 that includes the prologue skip found in the Steam version of Mad Father. I'm not sure if this version should be allowed or not, but feel free to discuss it here; I am leaning a bit towards keeping the game to 2.06 for the free version but I'd love to hear everyone's opinions on the matter.

well in the note of the 2.08 version kinda what he said about it actually lol. That the version is there but if u wanted to support him you can buy it off steam instead. But i kinda have mixed feelings about it myself but im happy with whatever choice she makes

Here's what I think.

I think we should allow 2.08 since the only update I noticed was adding the option to skip the prologue. If we do this then we can either make 2.08 it's own category, subtract a set amount of time from current runs, or just not allow prologue skip.

kinda what i was talking about to mahou in the discord, maybe make w/ or w/o prologue subcategories. That way we can have people that started running this game they're times are obsolete because they haven't gotten 2.08

Oops, haven't been looking at this thread, my bad. The reason I was against just straight up allowing 2.08 was just because people who did the run with the prologue would just get blown out of the water (the fastest I've ever done the prologue is still over four minutes). What I've decided I'm going to do is play through 2.08, which shouldn't take too long, and then decide what to do for the leaderboard. I'm leaning more towards banning prologue skip, but I do like the idea of making sub categories for with or without prologue.

Do feel free to continue adding to the conversation, though. I think it's important to hear everyone's thoughts on the matter.

EDIT: "Prologue Start" and "Prologue Skip" have been added as sub-categories through a small discussion on the Discord server. Thanks for all your guys' input <3
