Great idea with making the goal be the actual speedrunning. Very fun! Great job!

I think you hold a good principle (Should I read or skip the text ? Auto fight (chance of dying) or choose my attack (more sure but more slow). Good job :)

A great idea, and well-executed. I love the self-aware nature of the game, how it knows it's slowing you down and tripping you up and takes pride in it. I might give it a few more goes just to see how fast it's possible to finish the game if you know what you're doing beforehand.

Really fun game! Spent ages playing this, almost a shame to speedrun it as there is plenty of detail and polish that has gone into it. Well done!

Great game. The graphics are nice and the gameplay is fun. Good job.

this was pretty fun, i had a chuckle at the speed run stuff :D

Oh yeah the speedrun concept was hilarious and I wanted to set a PB so bad. Thanks for the game!

Great replay value :)

Wish there was a hotkey to reset.

@GoodKenneth great time! You actually _have_ set a new world record. You can reset through the PICO-8 pause menu accessed with Enter (I will add this to the description)

And here I was so proud of myself. Makes me feel just like a real speedrunner, never as good as the pros :smile:

Well done!

Great system! I killed 11 rats in 5 minute and still didn't get a reward so I might be doing something wrong. The battle system is slick though! Very smooth overworld, levels and battles! Well done!

It's a funny little game you've made here, though the amount of time I spent trying to vibrate through the gate guard left me a little disappointed there weren't more glitches to exploit. I guess pico8 is a bit too robust for that though.

And sharing my pb, to get into the top 3~

You're a monster for putting the default responses on decline/repeat :p You know that right? Fun little game!

2:20.1. :sad: this was my best after several attempts, guess I'm not cut out for speedrunning :wink: pretty solid game, wish it had sound though.

Nicely done but man I cannot even get better than 2:26

I'm not much into the speedrunning stuff, but it also worked well as an rpg deconstruction/parody :)

hpmnk 2018-04-27 00:17

Hahahaha super funny concept. I loved how you made quest long and laborious, just to loose players who don't understand the real concept. Had a hard time on that dark romm x___x

I'm glad to see more and more Pioo 8 games appearing on game jams.

I felt like I was being punished at first, but then speedrunning sense kicked in and saw the time savers. Satisfying to win and think about how you could have done it faster. You highlighted the key feel of speedrunning, good job.

Mine time was a little over 10 minutes, however I did the whole rat quest (no rewards! :( ) first before figuring out what I should be doing ^_^. I really like being told I set a world record at the end, though clearly I didn't ;).

That was really well done, great set of content for a compo game, and looks great, a little sound would have gone a long way, I think.

Ah this looked and played great. A good sense of humor as well made the game really enjoyable. Good work!
