Is there a way we can add the Discord server here? It may be easier for new members to learn the proper route and ask questions.
Awesome! Thanks so much! This is super detailed and a great guide to view!
Plus some other strats I wasn't doing. Ha!
I recently did SO: FDR for the 12 hour speedrun, and attempted to write down some sort of speedrun guide for me/the community, since I noticed there were no current guides for beginners.
I mostly jotted down some bullet points and the lore while watching some runs, and want to hopefully get a guide/resource on the SR page. So, I put my notes in an editable google link, in hopes that we can get the ball rolling there.
The link is https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QRWd8niDuxNaHMEZra9XFaLTeVweh-n_RavU8SQE3QI/edit
It's also in the Star Ocean Speedrun Discord if people want to find it there as well.
Please keep in mind that this draft is a VERY ROUGH AND VERY BAD outline. So, if you're confused in any way, don't worry. It's just because I'm bad at this. :-)
This game seems to be popping, and I plan on joining in the fray once I upgrade the Switch version to PC later this week/weekend.
Is there a Discord available for us all to join in, consider stickers/upgrades as a whole, and help the community grow?
(also a channel for remixes of the remixes?)
WE'RE BACK! And this fall we're bringing a treat!
WE'RE DOING BOTH ONLINE AND IN PERSON! That's right, during the day we will be doing an online charity marathon, and then the evening (EST) we're opening it up to those who cannot make it to the in person marathon.
12 online 12 in person? YOU BET!
And you know what? THERE'S STILL TIME TO SUBMIT!
You need to fill out BOTH of these to submit: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScYd9gBiF8Z87PSBS9Fki3rOefmSeeu9csZproC3tQYy0jtNg/viewform

Better hurry, though! They're not up for long!
Yep, I do the exact same strat. Sometimes grabbing the checkpoint for health/marathon safety.
I don't know if it really saves time or anything, but I always hug to the right during the entire level and everytime I do, I never seem to get a second "save me" section. Instead, I get the "Thanks fox!" animation from my companions.
Is this anything that could help/hurt the run?
I'm submitting for AGDQ this year, and tbh I'm thinking about a race. I think, if we all got together and performed a race of Star Fox SNES 1.2, with commentators, that may show the complexity of the game.
Of course, I just now picked up a 1.2, and I've been running 1.0 for a while now. We'll see how the change is ;-)

Come say hi!
The honestech one? I have Window 10 and use it for streaming all my SD games. The Elgato HD as well. We also may have a Dazzle and a couple others if staff brings their own cards.
We will have macs there, I believe. Does that help at all?
- Are you talking about what capture cards we have? I, for one, do not have any type of internal SD/HD graphics card but instead have a Honesttech Vidbox capture card for HD, and an el Gato 60 for HD capture.
- My only PSP games are Star Ocean, so can't help ya there. But we're going to have a lot of multiplayer/chill games during the nights
- The staff should have enough to cover, but if you want to bring any extras you're more than welcome. I personally have NES, SNES, Super Famicom, N64, Wii, Wii-u, Switch, PS2-4 I'm bringing for extra games and what-not.
- Yes.
- Always.

Good idea! We forgot to add that and discuss it in the meeting.
Went ahead and added it. Thanks for the suggestion!
