Looking for opinions on whether Co-op runs done solo should be considered valid Co-op speedruns. Finished a test run today with an RTA of 7:28 which makes it an unofficial world record. I like the idea of someone frantically trying to control two Bros better than two people can, but in practice you can just bind most of the controls to the same buttons. So I have a few main questions I'd like some opinions on:
- Should Solo Co-op speedruns be valid Co-op speedruns?
- If so, should there be rules restricting the key binds?
- Should Solo Co-op be its own category?
Basically, if nobody has any objections, I'm going to start routing Solo Co-op and grinding runs. If nobody wants this though, I'll just keep it an unofficial category.
Update: My run was rejected, which is a shame because I really just want to see Co-op optimized. I'm going to see what I can do about getting a Co-op partner. Unfortunately this game has no online support. If any teams who have run Co-op or want to run Co-op would like any help with going fast I am more than willing to show/teach you how to go fast. I have already put a lot of work into routing every character on every level. Please, if you are at all interested in running this game (any category), I want to help. I love this speedgame, love it with me.
