Hey! I have been caught up watching speedruns and I am starting to do it myself, is there anything I need to know first off?

Trying to get "the run" will destroy the former 'you' and create a monster. Run as far as you can.

nah jk find a game you like, play it a lot, then play it fast.

Need to time your run? http://livesplit.github.io/ bam Need to record your run? https://obsproject.com/ bam

Hello welcome! just have fun doing it and make sure you read the rules on each game. :)

I don't really have much advice to give sadly but I do hope it goes well for you :)
