One of the unfortunate aspects of running the Initial Spiritual Core category is that you need to grind the RNG so as to get the right assortment of cores. To help alleviate that, I can make a file that only has Slow (as it is unavoidable due to the tutorial always giving it) and six other, actually viable cores. I wonder what you all would think would be the ideal starting lineup would be. Currently, I have one that has the following: — Rush — Dazzling Style — Explosive Touch — Interlink — Ritual Blade — Leech — Slow (but we can simply reset until it is the one that isn't included in Ogi's shop)

Naturally, the characters would all be fully upgraded already, and their story segments would still be available to skip. All that you will need to do to restart a run is to close the game, copy the save files back into your folder (with cloud saving turned off, of course,) then reopen the game.

It takes me a few hours to make one, and I can currently only do this for PC players. I know that it is possible to do with a PS4 and probably an Xbox One, but I am not able to make those right now.

It's not uncommon for games to have category extensions as an outlet for unorthodox, less serious, or even "meme" runs. These give a speedgame longevity by providing alternative ways to compete, even if those categories aren't most more exalted one.

Would anyone have suggestions for what they would like to see?

I do have a couple of nominations myself that I was hoping that you might consider. — Yesterday, I completed a run of Tunche at 2x speed by using Cheat Engine to multiply the game's speed. — I have also beaten the final boss from a "clean save", i.e. deleting all data and starting completely over, which is an exceptional challenge. — "Devil May Care", named after the achievement, where timing ends when an SSS rank is shown on screen. — Lastly, a meme category that one of my chat members recommended is an "X Gon' Give It to Ya" run, wherein only the basic melee attack button can be used to deal damage.

Even if we don't go through with any of these, I hope to put the thought into everyone's head. This game is great, and the more ways to play it, the better.
