Im running a platform game "Happyland Adventures" and something strange is going on. I tried to speedrun game on computer in my family home and game seems faster than normal, I get a unbelievable time. In just first level which takes normally like 29s i get 26s with absolutely the same route. I dont know what to think about it, also I was searching for this on youtube and no one have this game as fast as i had. Game is runnable on versions(1.3.1 and 1.3) but them didnt causing anything with speed. Oh, and I didnt mention one of very important stuff. In game timer is still like in normal game. So i nomally finish a first level with 226-227 on a clock. In this time i get 230 which is absolutely sick and no chance to do it in normal way.
You can see this when you compare this two speedruns:
What you think about it? Can I consider my time from a first video as WR when everyone who was running this game was running with normal speed and sth strange was happened with my game?
This is not just one time. When im in family home I just trying to do some runs and always get game faster than normally.
Thanks for reading this and sorry for my English which is pretty bad.

probably ssd. but the chances your parents got an ssd are pretty small.
My guess: something to do with VSync messing with the framerate.
This sort of issue where a game will run faster than intended under certain conditions has come up before, even for a game as popular as Ori and the Blind Forest. I don't know the specifics, but if a game is running fast, then the run doesn't count.
@Mekarazium Yeah, in this computer in my family house there are no ssd but I have ssd on my computer.
@Ihavenoname248 Thanks, so I need to erase my record then.
I add this game here and I'm a moderator. But don't know everything about a game mechanics(I know tricks, probably all in game for now but dont know code and how it works), im not programmer. And its first time I saw this strange thing, no one recorded this problem so I decided to write on forum. Still just erase this time and will try to play on normal basis.
