Feel free to post new categories ideas here, make sure to argument it well, explain why it would be a good addition to the leaderboard, keep in mind that our goal here is to convince more people to speedrun the game.
CloudedRage mentioned maybe doing an all energy cells type run. I agreed that it could be decent, give the run a but more longevity and you would get to use the dash power up a whole lot more, making it pretty fast pace but requiring a good route and accurate movement. Could be an interesting category and I see it taking much longer to optimise than Any% to keep it interesting for new and current runners to compete in. I definitely believe it deserves a chance as a category and would definitely do some runs myself for something like this. :)
We were thinking about having 100% which would cover having all of the power ups, energies, secrets (possibly 0 deaths?) Wouldn't splitting it to things like "all energies" be too indistinguishable from the main Any% category? I know that you would have different routes and all but is just "all energies" enough for brand new category? I could understand if that was the last category we could ever think of but I think even if we use those other things combined (energy, power ups, secrets) we will still have some room for cool ideas, I might be wrong here though, there might not be much more than that to be honest lol. If that's like one of the last things we could think of then that totally makes sense to split them, what do you think?
I don’t think all energies or any just “all these things” runs would distinguish itself enough from 100% or Any% to be worth having them split out to separate categories. I think if the game expands, possibly? But as it stands now, not likely IMO.
Yeah I mean it isn't a large game so maybe just energy cells can be skipped and we can jump straight to 100% and we can always come back to just energy cells maybe later down if the game gains traction. I think 100% basically offers the same things all energy cells does anyways, longer, fast paced and can be the next step up from any%. I am not against the idea at all
