@Sir_Farcelot yes, I misunderstood. Thanks :)

I agree that minimum gizmos could be a category extension. @minecraftmanpp_tutor I hope that this category works out!

@Sir_Farcelot 3:52 is the point of insanity.

Is that not what you have been asking for by creating this thread?

@Sir_Farcelot thanks, and sorry for spelling your name wrong in the description. Same to @MichaelChan, as I typed a space between.

Ultimately, its the Mods decision. @DemonicSushi360, what do you think?

United StatesSwskrei1 year ago

I agree that we don't want to add to many categories. If pacifist and minimum gizmos are combined, this would prevent from an overload. If the mods only wanted the community choose one, I would vote pacifist%.

This ceiling glitch, if you didn't know, is actually a side jump at the lowest point. Some of the levels for minimum gizmos will never be speedran. An alternate idea that would make more sense would be minimum moving tiles. This is kind of a mix between pacifist% and minimum gizmos. You can't touch blue platforms or anything in brush 4. In my opinion, this would be more interesting that minimum gizmos.

This makes sense, and doesn't ruin the entirety of the communities minimum% runs. One theory I was thinking of was that for every apple under the run with the least apples subtracts a certain amount of time from your run. For example, If someone gets 1 apple on level 1, but gets 21.5 or something of the like, their time would be 21.0. This creates a incentive to get less apples, and if the time taken away per apple is fair, it might work. What do you all think?

Hardly anybody would speedrun this. Although the concept would work, its more of a challenge than a speedrunnable category. I just don't see the point. I'm not against the idea, but when I try minimum gizmos, I can tell I wouldn't spend time getting more efficient times. More simply, this category, in my opinion, is not going to work.

Btw what is this ceiling glitch that isn't the corner death? For level 8 at the beginning? Going up after sliding on the edge of the block is hardly a glitch. Even if you did that, you still touch the second 'eye launcher' by a few pixels.

Agreed

Minimum apples is a very controversial topic. Lots of the tricks are nearly impossible to do in succession, like level 6. For my level 1 run, I used the minimum in @dn_scrtch's run. Although this is not the 'true' minimum, it was the minimum determined by the mods. If @DemonicSushi360 changes the minimum, then I will happily (well, maybe) redo my run.

United StatesSwskrei1 year ago

I think this is a good idea for a category, but there are so many new categories that adding more would kind of overload appel. Maybe once all checkpoints has a been around for some more time other categories should be added.

Just what I think. :)

Congratulations! I doubt anyone will beat this amazing time.

I agree. Level 9 would be weird to play it the other way.

okay? We already know this. Its obvious that a 10 second level 1 time is faked. There is no way to use the timer loop to somehow trick the mods.

United StatesSwskrei1 year ago

A category for minimum kills would only affect level 1, 4, 6, and 9. I think this would be far more interesting if you couldn't touch any enemies. This would change more levels, not only 4.

United StatesSwskrei1 year ago

yeah that's pacifist% and was already in another forum. Its okay, though.

also by killing all of the enemies, do mean only mobs, or also getting rid of pips and birds?
