IBefore reading: My name's Zorkle, I'm from France (so please be gentle for the approximate English :D ), I'm a speedrun beginner and I'll start speedrunning Neon Abyss from now! Since there aren't any many categories and much runs for now (which is obvious since the game is pretty recent), I thought about somethings.

I'm thinking about running this game and I think I'll try some special kind of runs which are :

• Any% no Items No Heart No shield : Well, it tittle does explain it, it's a run where we just start from the beginning, kill argus and all that without taking any hearts, shield, weapons... So if you take some damages you gotta deal with it, no way to recover health ( gonna be a pretty hard run, to be honest, but seems good to me).

• Any% no Items No extra : Same as above but we can recover Health and take extra shields, the shop is allowed.

-Any % no damage: Well, it's kinda obvious but the goal is to kill Argus without taking any damages for the whole run. No damage taken allowed, shield nor hearts.

-Any% Katana run : Any % with Saya, only using the katana. Gotta kill argus with that great Katana!

And that's all for now! Those aren't official runs for now but I hope it will be later. If you are interested in any of those runs and wanna discuss something, or submit some ideas feel free to put those here! Thanks for reading!

So hello, my name's Zorkle, I'm from France and I'm looking for a game to run to introduce myself to speedrunning. I'm looking for a game that can be done in 1h (more or less), without " run killers glitches" (because I don't wanna end 40 mins run with a bug or something I misplayed). Looking for any kind of game but would be great to have a "casual approach", I'm not afraid of learning patterns to execute glitches but not the kind of glitches that took days to learn. Would be great if I can start running the game in 2 or 3 days. Thanks for reading and thanks for the help/advice you'll give. PS: Excuse me for my approximate English, hope you won't mind :)
