I personally think it would be cool to have categories for the any% of every different island (Kronos, Aries, etc.) for people who maybe don't want to run the full game, or something idk I just think it would be interesting.
Basically, my idea is that this speedrun could be getting the crash ability, and then using it in the middle of waddle dee town as fast as possible (right under the star).
Time would start when you pick your difficulty, and end right after the waddles dees have "died".
Basically I had the idea for a speedrun where you get Hestu's Maraca's as fast as possible. I was going to run it today, to get the first of 5 runs I need to submit it, but I need to know if it's worth it first. Also, I need 4 other people to run it, so I'm posting the idea here.
Basically, the great plateau would be any%, but after the great plateau, instead of going to the castle, you would go to Hestu and defeat the enemy camp to get his Maraca's. You don't need to talk to hestu or anything, time would end as soon as you get the Maraca's.
