I'd love to have a place to chat with others who are interested in the game (ex. Demo runs) even before launch, but I don't know how many others would really join. This will be a thing eventually, but if there's enough interest, I can open a discord for now to start things. (or the mods will idk)

So, we all know this game has a lot of space for a lot of categories to run. Some ideas are better, some worse, some impossible. Here's some I had.

= = NG+ (New Game+) = =

• You Canuse any save file you previously has with any amount of tumors.
• Timer starts when selecting + confirming The End on world map.
• Timer ends on credits, like usual.
• You have to reach all the ends of all worlds like usual- You can't just travel to last world. The idea is making this a bit like an "all levels" category that ignores the tumor collection like in any%. That means: Using warps isn't allowed except for coming back to The Split. you are only allowed to use the actual, visible warp gates in the end of Golgotha, SS. Exodus and Machine. no map warping. of course, warping to the end after whatever world you do last of the 3 split paths is fine.
• Warp to the future using the actual friend in your house.

= = All Cartridges - Subcategories = = Now this is a bit obvious that this will exist, but it might be unclear to some how will this be seperated, so, There will be:

All Cartidges Done - RTA from entering your TV until you beat the last cart. Only need the "Bare minimum" listing on each cart. All Cartidges + Collectibles - RTA from entering your TV until you beat get the last "100% of Nothing!" Achievement on the all cartidges with said achievements, and beat every cart.

All Cartidges Complete - RTA from entering your TV until you get the last achievement on all carts. All numbers beside all carts.

== All Tumors - Subcategories = =

• All small tumors Get all tumors from the non-secret areas in the game and beat the game. Timer starts on new save file start and ends on credits.
• All 'maingame' tumors Get all tumors from both non-secret areas and ??? areas in the game and beat the game. Cartridge rewards not required. Timer starts on new save file start and ends on credits.
• All possible tumors Get all tumors in the game, Including both the ones found throughout the world, secret areas and all cartidge rewards that bring tumors- And beat the game. Timer starts on new save file start and ends on credits.

== 100% == I think true 100% needs to be all possible tumours and all cartridge achievements- Sounds like the most sensible way unless there's some other thing I don't know of yet.

All I could think of ATM. the idea of "Interact with all NPCs" did pop up once in the discord and seemed interesting since they all have their own little ways to reach and have no additional rewards (i think?), so that might be fun.
