United StatesThis forum doesn't seem to get a lot of traffic, so I'm just going to offer a gentle bump to let people know I still check this from time to time. Your DM might sit for a whole month, but I will read it eventually I promise.
I did not get to read your message, steven. If it was a request for a key, feel free to DM me.
Extra props if you write your made up excuse here in the forum for the public to enjoy.
Public Service Announcement: I've had a few people reach out, and they have all felt compelled to justify why they don't want to pay $3 for it before requesting a Steam Key. For what it's worth - you don't have to explain anything to me. You certainly may, and honestly, I hope you do, and you make up a reason that gets increasingly less believable the longer you type. If I get flooded with those, that'd be amazing.
But, truly, I'm happy to give my game to whoever wants to play it. A simple "I'd play spec if you gave me a key" will get you a key. My feelings will not be hurt and I will not be insulted or upset.
"Euch" because I'm good at the card game euchre and "stud" because I was 12 when I made my first gamertag.
I'd kill to have a speedrunning community pop up for my game.
spec on Steam (steampowered.com)
If you're interested, message me and I'll provide you a Steam Key.
No beuno. Full of deaths and misplays.
Hey y'all.
Just here to say hi and to shamelessly link to the other post I just put up on this forum:
Tournaments and Races forum - Hot new game looking for new speedrunners - Speedrun.com
The short version is - I made a game, it's out on Steam, I think it would be a dope speedrun, I'll give it to you for free if you are interested in trying it out.
Much love!
Euch
The title is maybe a bit misleading lol. The game is not hot and has been out for like six months now. But I had to get you to click on the thread. Forgive me. This will be the last time I lie to you. Probably.
I'm an indie game dev with a game out on Steam called spec.
spec on Steam (steampowered.com)
Calling me "an indie game dev" is a bit generous. I'm a regular guy with a day job who makes dumb games for the joy of seeing others play them.
I think this most recent creation would make for a pretty sweet speedrun. It costs $3, but I view that more as a "recommended donation" than I do a true price. If you click the link and are interested in playing, but don't have $3 (or if you have $3 but don't want to give it to me), you can hit me up and I'll provide a Steam Key.
I'm the current WR holder of my own game - which is kinda sad. What's even sadder is it's a garbage time filled with deaths and misplays. I feel like a sub-30 has to be possible, but I'm not sure I'll ever get it.
I'd love to get a full-blown community going where people break the game and we have to split into a "glitchless" and "any%" category and Summoning Salt eventually makes a YouTube video with the history of the WR and you guys become super famous spec streamers and I get super rich because of all the exposure it gets......... but I'd settle for a small community of cool people who have a casual meme-filled rivalry.
Truly, I think it would just be a blast to see some real speedrunners pick up the game and push it to its limits. I'd have fun watching it happen, and I know there are some people out there who would enjoy speedrunning the game. Check it out in Steam and let me know if you are one of those people.
Sure! I was just trying to make it easier for everyone. I'll be curious to see what the difference is between the in-game timer and what you edit in.
