Hi there,
I'm new to these forums, but I recently did a speedrun of Minecraft Plus and I was surprised to see this game isn't anywhere on the site. Minecraft is really popular so I figured as soon as Minecraft Plus dropped it would be on this site. Either way, I got very eager to be one of the first speedrunners for the game and decided to pick one of the minigames that I liked. Basically, you control one of the many famous assets from the original Minecraft and manipulate the gravity to move it around the board. The goal is to completely fill the board, with the trick being to find a way and fit the square you're controlling to fit into each corner, which as you can imagine gets pretty difficult.
As of today I managed to get an 11:22 in this minigame, and was wondering what steps I need to take to get this record offically recorded on this site. Here is my stream for proof (record run starts at 1:18:17 (sorry for the lack of audio at that point, my audio got claimed)):
Any help with this topic would be super appreciated, thank you!
I believe you need to submit a request for a leaderboard to this form:
While there is a heavy RNG element, part of the skill for this games comes from manipulating that RNG in order to get the drop pattern that will get you the fastest time possible. Since the board never changes but the pattern does, manipulating the gravity for the asset block is highly dependent on you taking the RNG you get and strategizing around it. Almost how in certain runs of regular Minecraft you have to strategize around the seed you get. My time is definitely not the most optimal in any way at all, and I believe you could even get around a 7:30. Every run has WR potential which is why I like it so much.
This seems pretty similar to a Scratch game I made where there is no user input and everything is determined by RNG, and it's basically just speedrunning a screensaver. And since I have no life, I have spent about 92 hours in total grinding this game, in hope that someday I will get sub 3 minutes (the current WR is 3:32) yes this is what i do with my time leave me Alone
