I'll second European_Union on Kirby's Dreamland. The game can be picked up and learned proficiently in an hour or two, then minor adjustments take forever (and let's not forget the lovely RNG grinding).
Can you stream from PS4 on Twitch(or another streaming service)? If so you can use the recorded footage of the stream and add a timer/time it afterwards. (Forgive me if that doesn't make a lot of sense, I'm on break so rushing a bit).
Welcome and good luck!
Welcome and good luck on your runs. I look forward to the obscure games!
Welcome and good luck on your runs! Chryoyo is correct on OBS and Livesplit, they are the go-to tools for speedruns and should do just about everything you need.
Welcome to the community, I hope you find that game that screams "beat me fast!"
Welcome to SRC and good luck on your runs! I don't have much experience with video editing, but I'm sure somebody else will have a recommendation for you shortly.
Warriors Orochi, I feel like I heard that that was a fun game. How long of a run is it? Good luck and welcome!
Grats Rho on winning it back (the video has sound)! That was a good run, Guile needs nerfing :D. Hopfully we'll have a few more people submitting runs soon.
And if you think Tom is bluffing, you're in for a world of hurt :P
Welcome to the community and good luck on your runs!
Agreed about Zang, I gave him a run last night and he's too bulky to stay on the opponent. Also, I think if he ducks down he still gets hit with shoryuken type attacks!
Good luck, and I think I might have a few more people interested in giving this game a run or two.
It all depends on the game and the mods, if my run hasn't been verified after a week, I'll contact a mod via Twitter or some other medium. Patience is key since the mod has to have the time to sit down and review your entire run.
Thanks for the help Oddtom! That clarifies a lot of my concerns, and you make some good points about the new accounts being made with the purpose of uploading Pb's.
Thanks for posting and being involved, this is a good entry level beat-em-up and I want to bring more attention to the game! I went ahead and verified your run, congrats on WR! But I'm coming for that #1 spot Kappa. In the future, please try to have sound on the video, it makes it much easier for me to time and verify.
Now as far as game mechanics go, yes I think the throws are a good way to lock the cpu out a good portion of the time, but I'm not sure the time involved animating the throw constantly will net a better time than just smashing and hoping you get through the defense. I'll get to testing as well!
Hey everyone, I recently became mod of my first game! Thank you thank you, please hold your applause because I've already been thrown a curve ball. A player submitted a run beating my time (only other run in the game so far) so I went ahead and timed his run and verified it. While verifying the run, a few things struck me as odd.
Firstly, there was no sound, which raises a red flag immediately for me. Secondly, the account that submitted the run is only 7 days old here, and the youtube account used to upload the run is brand new and only has one video uploaded (the run in question). Lastly, the upper left corner of the video has "unregistered hypercam 3". I'm not accusing anybody of cheating, but I wanted to check with the community, and people who have more experience moderating leaderboards to see if there is anything I should be weary of about this run? To be transparent, I will tag @rho here so they know that I am seeking additional confirmation.

Thank you for the help everyone, and sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask in! -Todd
Thank you for joining us, and welcome! Hopefully some of your runs hook some people into your games.
