The current category for this game is basically a meme category, where you don't have to actually try and beat the game.

When I played this last year, I considered it beat when I got the high score in all events. Can we get that added as a Category, to get this game out of meme run territory?

This is similar to how World Games is setup: there the category is "All Golds" in the events. https://www.speedrun.com/world_games

I was amazed when I saw how short the times were here, then I noticed that they are all 1P games with no CPU opponents. Is there any chance you could add categories for runs vs CPU players?

I play it vs 3 x CPU, but you could also in theory also do 1Pv1CPU, 1Pv2CPU, 2Pv1CPU, 2Pv2CPU, or 3Pv1CPU, if there was demand. But 1Pv3CPU is how I usually play it as a single player.

Cheers!

I've been working with the folks over at IGDB, so all the cover art and categories for the Dark Castle games should be sorted now!

Planning to put a run up here! Wondering why we have no cover art and the title isn't properly capitalized? This game is 1987, the original was 1986, as well.

High Score in all Events would make sense for this game, that's what I considered "beat"

Awesome! Good to know. :)

Also wondering if I have to do anything special to get my runs reviewed? I submitted my A Game 99R run 5 days ago, and noticed that there have been 8 other runs approved since then, but mine still has not?

Cheers!

Can I take the first 20 or 50 rounds of my 99R game and submit them in those categories?

Thanks!
