Hello! Would it be possible to create a Colecovision variable of this game so that I could submit a speedrun for this? It appears to be a lot faster than the Atari2600, so just submitting it in the same category wouldn't be terribly appealing.

Here is my vod doing the 5k points version. I have a 10k points version as well but haven't got around to getting that uploaded.

You know, it's been 10 months when I asked about this, and I went into the discord and talked to you guys, but nobody ever made a Colecovision category. I believe I gave you everything you had asked for and I think I just got tired of bringing it up and left the thing. But I guess I am asking again if that could be possible? The timing rules should be the same as the SNES version.

Thank you :)

Another thought: the somewhat-lengthy titles for the two categories exist because initially it was just "any% (level 9)" but I thought a shorter one would be more appealing for the higher difficulties. Then I wasn't sure how to define them... any% as level 3 and 100% as level 9 made some sense, but there's no actual "end" to the game so anything seems rough I guess. If you have any thoughts about it, feel free to share :)

Ok I just threw up two categories for it. I forgot the variables for difficulty were already in there, so this made more sense (and doesn't require me doing any research, lol). Also added Intellivision as an option for console. I'll do arcade if/when there's runs, too.

Sure! Should be up in the next day; need to take a moment to remind myself how to add in variables :)

AIN'T EVER SEEN A 79!

yay

yay

Wow he got this run on the FIRST TRY after legend sword skip... what a legend. Bet it won't take over a year and a half for him to even get close to this again!

If this run is still on the boards in another month I will be FURIOUS

I was thinking about adding an additional category to the game: Become a Squire. It would essentially be a race to get recognized by the King and get your first rank. The appeal of this is in how it doesn't seem clear at the onset what the quickest way to do this would be. It would also involve quite a bit of RNG, which could increase the replayability.

Any thoughts?

Here's my current pb:

I actually did a few speedruns of the Colecovision version and would love it if you would add a category for it. It plays a bit differently than every other version on here

They had an updated video submitted but no one had verified it. I verified it and deleted the actually-worse result from the dead account.

Requesting moderator access to the game Dynowarz: Destruction of Spondylus: https://www.speedrun.com/dynowarz_destruction_of_spondylus

My submitted run is now over a month old. I've attempted to contact the moderator via message on this board without a response. Their Twitter doesn't allow for messages from un-mutuals, and they appear to be inactive on every other method of communication now for over a year.

May I be added as a moderator for the game Iron Tank: The Invasion of Normandy? https://www.speedrun.com/iron_tank

I know my run submission has been up there for like 10 minutes now but the game does not currently have a moderator (I believe the previous one deleted their account). So I don't think waiting is going to accomplish much.

Yeah, looks awesome, thanks!

Side note: now that there is a Two Loops category for Colecovision, I am tempted to try that. Not because of the leaderboard, but because to my knowledge this has never been done ever. I think I hold the unofficial High Score WR (emulator) and I think on that run I died at Saturn haha.

I asked Darkwing about this before, and he's fine with his runs being submitted on his behalf but he just doesn't want to use this site for whatever reason (probably something something SDA). I wouldn't have ever bothered you about it except it looks like you found it on your own :)

"Official SDA Timing" makes sense for some games, but I think it's easier to simply start timer when you hit the start button. It's probably why that sort of timing has went out of vogue. But I don't do the NES run (yet?) so it's not terribly relevant to me. The Colecovision version doesn't have any sort of load screen so there's no reason for a timer offset there.

If it is available in the Apple Store and otherwise appears to be the same game, I don't see why not! I would mention that I played it on desktop using a program called Bluestacks, which is an android emulator. My phone couldn't possibly both play an app and record simultaneously :)

The link to your Discord in your profile here and on your Twitch page does not work. I was hoping to get more info about this.
