Some tips for Any% if you're new.
Updated 2 years ago by CerealCat

This guide will help you get into running the Any% category if you are new to speedrunning RHF! This is pretty much all you need to know to get into speedrunning this game other than the basic game mechanics!

The most important thing to do is reset after creating your save file! It's faster if you have a Wii and can push the reset button there, otherwise use the home button and navigate to reset with the pointer. This skips the tutorial saving loads of time!

Try to not get any medals. Intentionally miss (or if you're bad like me just play normally) to prevent getting a medal on each level. Each medal wastes a second or two, and some can cause the "Go For a Perfect!" box to appear and lose even more time. You can get a medal on remix 7 since the timing ends when "OK" or "Superb" appears on screen, not losing any time.

There's not much else to it. I saw someone in another guide say that waiting to push "A" or "-" when prompted can save time, but I haven't tested it myself. If that turns out to be true I will add it above this paragraph and remove this sentence and the one prior. Just practice the ones you're not good at and chip down your time! Good luck, and have fun!
