EnglandCall me blind but I'm struggling to find it. Interested in potentially running this game but I wanna start small lmao
As some of you may have been aware, we previously had a limited range of accepted video platforms as a way of ensuring video can be look at scrutiny in case of cheated runs. However, we have decided to ease this rules to accomodate other platforms.
This is the amended rule: All runs using the in-game timer (IGT) will be considered for verification regardless of which video platform the run was uploaded to. However, if the video does not contain IGT, it must be uploaded to YouTube as it is the only platform where our retiming tool work. If you are uploading to Youtube, make sure your video is not set to Private, so we can access it.
All other rules still apply, so runs may still be rejected for other reasons. This will be effective 9th October 2021.
In most situations, changes to the rules in Google Snake Speedruns will be applied to Category Extension. Please check the linked thread for updates. Also feel free to read the other main forums, it may have answers to your questions!
Board Update Thread: https://www.speedrun.com/snake_game/thread/bfpxa
Most of the runs uses a mouse input but I found out the number keys can also be used to play. Can I use the number keys or is any% hintless restricted to mouse only?
For highscore runs - 1, 3 and 5 apples refer to number of apples on the board at one time. It is not "who can eat one apple the fastest". It's a highscore board but needed altering to allow players to enter scores. Dont get it mixed!!!
With the high number of category combinations, mistakes can be made. If you think a run has been placed in the wrong category, feel free to reach out to the moderators using this forum thread.
I would just like to make all runners aware of this. We already have a massive backlog of runs as it is but I have just come across 1 hour 15 min video and we are expected to go through the whole footage to search for the exact run, which was only 50 seconds long. PLEASE CROP YOUR RUNS TO THE RELEVANT SECTION OR INDICATE THE TIME IN THE VIDEO WHERE THE RUN STARTS. If you dont, the run will be rejected.
If you are submitting a fast or highscore run, please ensure you have the game sound ON! If it is good enough to make it into the top 5, we will REJECT the run if no game sound is included. We have included this as a counter-measure against people who are splicing or speeding up runs. If there are any questions, reply on this thread or feel free to join the discord server and ask there (we are more likely to respond on discord)
P.S. This change was announced on discord but not here, sorry about that...
This has probably been asked before (please point me in the direction of the answer if someone knows). I recall a section where a $5 PayPal donation would allow customisation such as having 2 coloured names or a customised page for you own page. However, with the recent SRC takeover by Elo, I havent seen it since. Is there anyway I can still customise my own page or has that been removed recently?
Hello all, by tonight (Probably before 12AM BST), I'll be separating standard and fast speeds into seperate IL categories. This will be helpful should you do both speed as you can preview your time on your own IL runs list. All previous runs for fast will be moved, so do not worry about resubmtting times.
Hello all. As you may or may not be aware, snake recently received an update allowing users to choose the speed for each mode (slow, standard or fast). Due to this, we have introduced fast mode on each IL Runs. IMPORTANT: FAST MODE WILL BE ON LOCKDOWN, WE ARE MIGRATING IT TO CLASSIC FAST
Here is the definitive upload of the All 25 tournament held 30th July 2020
I'm still relatively new to running Bejeweled so I kinda get tunnel vision at times. I know it comes with a slight forfeit so I'm just asking you are allowed to click the hint button.
So I'm trying to play some gameboy games (to be speedran too). It doesn't let me run games cos I need to download firmware (I think it was a BIOS one) but I'm struggling to find any. Does anyone know where I can find a download?
This is just a random suggestion that I thought of but maybe a country leaderboard. I dunno if anyone had thought of this before but a leaderboard can be created based on number of 1st place, top 3 places, WR per number of runners per each country etc.. A bit like a Olympics medal board but speedrunning.
Just putting the idea forward
