My name is Lukas and I'm a 29 years old passionate Metroid-Gamer from Vienna. The first videogame I ever played was Metroid: Return of Samus and from that point on I finished all official Metroid games with 100%. I did various runs of Metroid Fusion and Metroid Prime just for fun and with the release of Samus Returns, I decided to start competing with the best. Good luck to all other runners and have fun playing that wonderful game. See you on the leaderbords.

Thank you all for the warm welcome :) I already love this community! Atm I'm walking through the game for the second time to plan my route. Unfortunately I don't have the equipment to stream or record my progress ^^'

I'd be more than happy to help out with that! :O I assume you're looking for some free stuff to record with.

For recording and streaming use OBS I've been using it since I started and it just keeps getting better! https://obsproject.com/

For recording time, use live split. You can set up basic splits or make it very personalized and stylish with many fonts to choose from! http://livesplit.github.io/

Please send a link to your YouTube or Twitch account if you have one! :) Thanks! I can't wait to see your runs! It might take you awhile to figure out how these programs work but they aren't that hard once you get use to them. Good luck!

Hey Chryoyo, thank you very much for the information! You will definitely be credited in my runs. :D I will try these programs this weekend as I have a very tough schedule at work atm. And I'll add my youtube-channel to my profile.

Welcome and good luck on your runs! Chryoyo is correct on OBS and Livesplit, they are the go-to tools for speedruns and should do just about everything you need.

Hey Shinesparky,

I want to start running some games too and so far i didnt have any luck in finding some kind of community in Vienna. So i thought maybe you would be interested in training and competing on a more personal level with each other.
