Hi dearest chefs !
Migration of the AYCE parts from the Overcooked! 2 leaderboards has been completed. Please report to me if you're missing a run from the old board. I triple checked that I didn't miss out on one ;)
From now on this is the place to submit your AYCE runs.
Keep Cooking everyone !
It's done ! Overcooked All You Can Eat is now completely separated from this game and can be found here:
https://www.speedrun.com/overcooked_all_you_can_eat
All runs and categories have been moved as well. From now on, please submit your AYCE runs over there.
Please let me know if you have trouble submitting runs there or if something appears weird. I tried to setup everything right but yaknow, sometimes errors slip through :D
Keep cooking everybody !
Hello dear speedrun chefs !
Ever since the All You Can Eat (or short: AYCE) version of Overcooked released in 2020, it was never properly added to SRC, just as a sidekick in Overcooked 2, which makes little sense since it also provides content from Overcooked 1 as well as exclusive side campaigns.
I want to properly separate these games now so we have all content thoroughly directed towards the places where they belong.
This will take a bit of time since I first have to request the new game being added, then i gotta migrate all the AYCE stuff from OC2 over including settings, runs, categories, etc.
For you there will be no changes for now. You can continue submitting runs for all existing categories of OC2 and AYCE here, they will all be moved to the correct locations once it happens. I will make another announcement when it's done.
Keep cooking greatness and have a great day !
If you're using two controllers to still control 1 player at a time (split controls), it's still 1 Player.
If you control two individual cooks and have fast chop times etc., it's 2+ players.
Hi Pdo13,
in general you're right, technically it would be better to list the DLC runs as Full game categories. However, in this game we already have the problem that we got so many potential categories with the original Overcooked 2 & All-You-Can-Eat version, which split up into Any% and AllStars%, which again split up into 1-,2-,3- and 4-Player categories.
There is just no more space to add another major category layer, so I would have to create major categories like "OC2-Main Story", "OC2-AYCE-Main Story", "OC2-Night of the Hangry Horde", etc. And in my opinion, this would look way more ugly than having the DLCs as separate Level categories in their own section, which technically might not be entirely accurate, but since there won't ever be individual level boards anyways (apart from that 6-6), why not use them for this ?
Congratulations on the SGDQ World Record ! :D
Well, surely a video is required for most speedruns to be verified, but after verification it's not necessary to keep the video. Videos can be unattached for multiple reasons. Attached accounts could be deleted / banned or whatever.
But since the run is verified, that means (or at least should mean) that a mod has watched the run and decided that it's fine to get verified.
When did you realize that something is wrong with the run ? Just asking, because it must have been a while ago when the video was still available. Would've expected you reached out for it earlier ?
Can you describe what the concrete problem is ? Did they not unlock a certain Kevin level or just missed out on a star in a stage ?
Hi Jordanjwill,
first of all, I haven't received any message from you, your co-op partner mandyjess14 instead contacted me and told me about this. Unfortunately, I was only able to respond that I can not verify the validation of the run anymore since the attached video is now privated. If somehow you still had access to it, you can send me a link and I take a look into it.
Also I will message the other mod, slickfull, and ask him about the issue since he verified that run.
The easiest way to make a significant bump in quality of life for runners (just straight from my head) would be to implement a button / menu command to instantly end the level (or just use the regular exit level command) and let it act as the timer just ran out. This way the player could decide for himself how many stars he needs to go with for any% and form a route to gather just enough stars to make it to the end.
If possible, it would then help alot if there was a little reminder display that shows you how much score you need for the next star e.g.
Having a setting the player could modify like "End Level on X star score" which makes the level end immediately would help for All Stars speedruns (or 3-Stars / 4-Stars since we could then create such a category if players are interested)
I'd learn a 100% run with all 4 stars in all Levels + DLCs with such a mod. That'd be lots of fun.
Also being able to get all 4 stars per level directly from a fresh file would be a cool challenge :)
Definitely a neat idea to add a Speed-Mode in addition to the existing Highscore-Mode.
Yo fellow cooks !
Because it was specially requested, I've added categories for the "Night of the Hangry Horde" DLC, either any% without Horde levels, or just all Horde levels without any fixed timers in the stages.
If there is demand to add more, feel free to request it here and i'll consider adding it.
It's certainly doable if there's a request for it. I'd like DLC runs as well for some time since they're quite shorter than the main game. I'll try to get something together soon.
That would be optimal, since there are significant platform differences
Great work ! I'm gonna test it out as soon as i can and report back to you :)
I have now been added as a mod so I'll help out with reducing verification times from now on !
I offered to be a mod multiple times, but no answer. After my most recent run was not verified for like over 6 weeks or so, i messages all the mods and if i got no respond i would've filed an appeal to the super mods. But then my run got verified.
Still, i'm offering my help for verification of runs so the community does not get buried in inactivity.
Speedruns for v1.0 are on hold for (at least) this week until the community has ultimately decided which presets / settings will make it into new categories on the board. Newest infos on the Discord.
