Hi all, I created this leaderboard since there wasn't one for the PlatinumQuest version of the MBU levels and there are plenty of differences.
One question that I'd like to hear about what the community thinks: should the final Advanced level Hypercube be considered part of the speedrun? I have some reasons for and against it:
- It's included in the PlatinumQuest levels in the advanced category, and this leaderboard is for that version
- The level is not in the original Marble Blast Ultra and was added as an extra (apparently the level is a bonus from MBG?)
- The physics of that level don't match the rest of the levels (the marble is smaller and there is no blast)
Personally, I'm in favor of leaving that level out of the run, but I'm curious to what others think. I also considered splitting them into two categories "60 levels" and "61 levels", but that seems pretty overkill to me and it's probably best to just stick with one of those.
I decided for now to include Hypercube in these categories, since it's in the Advanced levels for MBU PQ and we might as well do it. If we decide to change this later on, then it's easy to just remove the last level from any already submitted runs and retime them, but it's not possible the other way around. I'm still happy to hear everyone else's thoughts on it!
Final time I'm touching this (I hope)! I added variables to the All Levels and Advanced categories as subcategories for if you did Hypercube or not. If you did it, you can submit to both categories, and if you didn't, then there's still a category for you to submit to.
