Hey,

I've seen you've added a new Misc category called "45 Classics" and I believe it's related to the ongoing speedrun event called the Ultime Decathlon where Action Henk is one of the ten games to speedrun and where the category used is called "45 First Classics".

However there is a minor discrepancy between the rules on speedrun.com and the Ultime Decathlon website. For the Ultime Decathlon, the timer starts when the first map "Hello World" is selected in the menu and not when the player presses "Play" in the menu.

There's also a typo in the rules : instead of "in the 7 story batches of the game", you should write "in the 9 story batches of the game".

On another note, I really hope the Ultime Decathlon will help the growth of the Action Henk speedrun community. I discovered the game thanks to the Ultime Decathlon and I am already a Henk addict !

I'm not sure about the Ultime Decathlon, but the main timing method for any speedrun category in Henk starts on the main menu. I don't see anything on that site about the run starting when you enter Hello World.

Hi there,

I am aware of the discrepancy. I decided to start the timing on main menu, because that’s how every other category is timed. If you’re fast at spamming the difference between starting on Hello World and on the menu is <0.1 seconds. I’m sure everyone can manage that much more ”gameplay“.

The number of batches isn’t a typo, as the story of Henk is only 7 batches. City and Henkmas are extra. The Decathlon also doesn’t include these, so I don’t get where your number comes from.

Actually, I’m dumb. It’s been a long day, excuse me. The typo has been fixed.
