New fast paced speedrun?

I have been trying to speedrun some games, but i cant really stand too "quiet" runs, does anyone know of a game with moderate RNG and really fast gameplay to speedrun? i appreciate every reply :) btw: i preffer PC games because i cant record consoles, or a game with emulator option.

Super Meat Boy, really easy to perform, hard to grind, fast and easy to learn.

Any oldschool FPS like Quake, Doom, Duke 3D etc. :)

Doom is very fast paced.

FAST Racing NEO if you have a WiiU. F-Zero like Racing Game which is ridicolusly fast.

Thank you for answering :D i will take a look to those games and see what i like, and if you know of another game with hack n' slash tell me please ^^

Recommending this as a speedgame is rather bold, but since you asked specifically for a PC hack'n'slash I dare to try my luck.

I like to play CrossCode at a reasonable pace. It's a top down Action-RPG with sort of hacky combat, but with the added element of ranged combat, so it actually controls like Dual Stick Shooter. It contains some platforming at in certain parts a bunch of puzzles.

The reason I said, this is rather bold, well... it's an Early Access game and not close to completion at all. Naturally running a game in this state is kinda "meh" to say the least, so really the only timed runs have been done in an old (and most importantly free) promotional demo, with a surprising amount of substance to it. The way its structured, it lends itself rather well to being run.

If you're at all intersted in checking out the game anyway, you can play the demo either on Steam or here. I can also hook you up with the version that I like to run.

I now know why less is sometimes more in marketing. >.>

Sure, please hook me up on that version, i actually have CrossCode on my wishlist on steam, so it would be awesome to find someone to run that game with :)

So, I just started getting into speedrunning, myself. I started with Dead Rising 3, and I was struggling to find something new to distract myself from that.

Then I found Boson X on Steam. Fairly simple little game that can be done quickly (I have a 100% run that I haven't submitted yet since I accidentally input a split too early so I have to re-time the run, but I managed to do it in about 24 minutes).

I've been having a back-and-forth with the moderator for it, so it would be nice to spice it up with more runs.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance takes really precise movement.

In my experience, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 has times where you do serious juggling between taskforces where even one slip can end the run.

If you can wait, then "Cuphead"! Looks very fast paced but yeah...xbox one exclusive...!

Check it out:

France

Cro$oft tried to announce Cuphead as an XBone exclusive but it's never been one. Just watch the E3 trailer on Youtube and the description says it'll be released on PC.

Ahh, you right!

Heres another proof:

Im new in speed running..."Cuphead" better with controller or with keyboard?

France

... do you realise you're talking about a game that is not released yet ? How are we supposed to know ?

speedrun a game you like, not a game someone else is running and think is good.
