anyone currently speedrunning this (glitched or glitchless) reply if you'd be interested in applying for a speedrun.com leaderboard because if we can get enough people then we ought to be able to get one.
I was looking into that last night, I made an account for speedrun.com but I have to wait a few days before it lets me request a game page. If anyone has an existing profile, feel free to get it requested!
Ok, if you ever decide to update this game, something that needs to be fixed is the ghost's speed. I believe it's based on the user's frame rate, so the ghost moves slower on lower FPS values. So whenever there's a lag spike, the ghost itself slows down, so basically WR times are luck based (for terrible devices like my own).
Feel free to post a screenshot of it like you have in the past! No one's violated the honor system yet so I'm not requiring videos for WRs. It is nice to have when I get around to making e a speedrun history part 2
I summed up the best times between your glitched run and my glitched/glitchless runs and I got a time of 47.96, which means that is theoretically possible for a glitchless run and something you could aim for.
Yeah, that's definitely my goal. I was also curious how you got that 3.13 on level 11. Since I'm focusing on a glitched run, I would really like to implement that.
I actually managed to get a 2.9, I was going to hold out on giving it away since I might have done the glitched runs myself but it's more tedious then I though so I'll tell you anyway. There is a bug in the game that if you get pushed into a block by a moving platform as a ghost it glitches you through, if it glitches you into a long line of blocks (like on level 11) it will almost instantly launch you up the distance, so using this you can launch straight into the finish.
Yeah, sorry for the confusion. I don't have the game linked properly to a server so all of the "world records" in game are just place holders. Beating all of them is still a huge accomplishment, so congrats on that!
Yeah, some glitches like that exist where you can get out of bounds. Do you know how you did this one specifically? Was it something to do with the moving platform?
Please do! If you have videos on how you do these (glitches or glitchless) please share! I'm thinking of doing a proper follow up video on the world record history later this year (going to give it a bit to get fully optimized)
oh wow this is sick, are you going for a WR? also, the in game "world records" are just random times set by the developer and don't update based on the world records of the community.
I found a really nice strat to get insane times on level 11. Unfortunately it does use a bug, but it is quite hard to pull off. In terms of speedrunning I think it is your call if it should be allowed in speedruns or not because usually speedruns do involve glitches.
On this topic, It'd be quite nice to clear certain level times. I currently have the world record but if this is dissallowed then I wouldnt be able to get my level 11 time back up to the normal number without redoing a world record run on every single run.
I think it would be nicer to have different "profiles", because I would like to do both glitchless and glitched but I cant do both and maintain the combined time.
Also, the game lacks a "back" button to get to the main menu, so you cant lower the volume after you press continue.
I'll look into doing something like that. My only experience with many profiles is with "Back from the Brink", shouldn't be too hard to do, more so just finding the time and getting a good UI design done
I think there's a glitchless and glitch run community forming around the game at the moment. Up to you for which category you'd like to run. Do you have a video of getting the record with the bug?
All world records. Woo! I figured out a sweet tech too. When you die, hold the up key, and you'll start with a long speed boost. That's how I got my times.
Dang! Yeah, looks like it's still in the game. There's a community forming around doing a ghost-bug allowed run of the game, so I think I'm going to leave it in. Have fun with it!

anyone currently speedrunning this (glitched or glitchless) reply if you'd be interested in applying for a speedrun.com leaderboard because if we can get enough people then we ought to be able to get one.
yes
I was looking into that last night, I made an account for speedrun.com but I have to wait a few days before it lets me request a game page. If anyone has an existing profile, feel free to get it requested!
I have an account so i'll do that now !
Actually I'm not sure if it would be allowed, I could still send the request but it's about 2 minutes total playtime for a casual playthrough.
I have sent the submission through.
Thanks for sending in a submission! We'll just have to wait and see what they decide to do!
lets go I got level 5 world record
Thanks for playing! The YouTube video is much appreciated!
Level 9 (I only comment when I beat a time in Davour's WR run)
damn you're catching up man whats ur sum of best so far?
My total time is 61.6
It's kinda tough for me to get good times on 3 and 6
4 hour later update
Also since there's actually a community around speedrunning this game now should there be like a discord server or a speedrun.com thing
finally one i actually recorded (level 5)

I'll take another look at it, the movement is tied to delta time, which should have the Ghost adjusted to the frame rate speed
The player movement appears to be fine, it's just the ghost's movement
Hmm, I'll check into it and get back to you!
dont you love it when you get a new world record but you realize you werent recording
Feel free to post a screenshot of it like you have in the past! No one's violated the honor system yet so I'm not requiring videos for WRs. It is nice to have when I get around to making e a speedrun history part 2
I got kinda annoyed so I didn't take a screenshot but I have this
Also thanks for trusting me
welp... time to start recording on my school chromebook with whatever shitty free web recorder i can find
First sub 49?
Don't know how I saved 0.5 seconds on level 8 but I'll take it
Great job! I think that's the current record for the glitch category, do you have a video of your run by chance?
No, I didn't record it. I probably should've though
that's insanely impressive
how did you get that level 8 time??? was it glitchless?
I tried it with ghost respawn and I was way slower.
It doesn't require any glitches. It's just a very precise jump that includes the 4th platform. I only got it twice out of all my attempts.
That's honestly incredible
Yeah my level 8 was already insane, you should record your runs

Oh my god that is insane. Thanks for telling me!
i currently hold all world records but sooner or later you guys will actually try to be fast
like i shaved off 5 seconds on one level
nvm that wasnt online mb yo
Yeah, sorry for the confusion. I don't have the game linked properly to a server so all of the "world records" in game are just place holders. Beating all of them is still a huge accomplishment, so congrats on that!
LETS GOOO ITS BEEN LIKE 5 MINUTES
level 8 btw
Congrats dude! That's awesome!
Thanks!
so close to sub 62 (glitchless)
why this ish so hard to beat imma serach it up on yt ong
Each of the levels has a trick to them, some people have uploaded their world record runs which might be helpful.
tyty
Yeah, some glitches like that exist where you can get out of bounds. Do you know how you did this one specifically? Was it something to do with the moving platform?
You should upload your runs to yt, currently there are 2-3 of us speedrunning without the glitches and my WR is at 61.37 now
you should doing a run with ghost glitch, i wanna see your best time because that glitch less run was insane.
Please do! If you have videos on how you do these (glitches or glitchless) please share! I'm thinking of doing a proper follow up video on the world record history later this year (going to give it a bit to get fully optimized)
0.1 seconds faster. OUT SKILLED
Nice job! Those .1 second gains are amazing!
Total time 73.43
Total time 77.28
damn nice
I also played on chromebook my current PR is 81.57
I think I frame perfect lvl 3 i think
That's awesome! What time did you get? If you could post a screenshot with the level select and total times that would be great!
i think it was 6.63 or 6.36
pre-WR holder I hold them all now
wr thing is bugged, acutal wr is 6.95
LEVEL 12 world record?
oh wow this is sick, are you going for a WR? also, the in game "world records" are just random times set by the developer and don't update based on the world records of the community.
yes, i am going for the world record. i'm basing my times off the times in your wr runs.
I found a really nice strat to get insane times on level 11. Unfortunately it does use a bug, but it is quite hard to pull off. In terms of speedrunning I think it is your call if it should be allowed in speedruns or not because usually speedruns do involve glitches.

how?
wait with this sub 61 is possible
Yeah I currently have sub 61 as my total time but the WR time is 61.37 because I just adjusted for the bug
That's a really good idea! I'll look into implementing something like that.
I think it would be nicer to have different "profiles", because I would like to do both glitchless and glitched but I cant do both and maintain the combined time.
Also, the game lacks a "back" button to get to the main menu, so you cant lower the volume after you press continue.
I'll look into doing something like that. My only experience with many profiles is with "Back from the Brink", shouldn't be too hard to do, more so just finding the time and getting a good UI design done
I think there's a glitchless and glitch run community forming around the game at the moment. Up to you for which category you'd like to run. Do you have a video of getting the record with the bug?
I do but I'd only reveal the strategy in a full glitchless run because I havent seen anyone else use it yet.
Just did it again
Got world record for all levels
level 1
When you die, hold the up key, and you'll start with a long speed boost. That's how I got my times.
i just took all of those from you lmao
I got the world record on all of em
I NEED -2 seconds!
I got all 12 WR!
i got world record on one of the levels :O
me: 5.81
WR 6.09
behind the wr by a total of 3.78 seconds
tfw wr isnt wr
Yeah, sorry about that. All of the records in the game are place holders at the moment.
So apparently respawning as a ghost wasn't patched out...
Dang! Yeah, looks like it's still in the game. There's a community forming around doing a ghost-bug allowed run of the game, so I think I'm going to leave it in. Have fun with it!
