Île-de-France, FranceHello to new players that would participate in speedrunning this game, here is three things that will help you before running.

Download the .exe file that is located here : https://www.speedrun.com/skullface/resources It will reduce lag and perfomences drop that comes from your browser. You'll need to start your game over again tho.

Enter your time correctly in the post format. The game acts weirdly so I'll explain a bit. When you get a time with only 1 digit after the dots (like 12:3) it means you got a time of 12 seconds and 3 hundreth. Yes, your time is actually a 12:03 instead of a 12:30. Then when posting your time, be careful as the current Speedrun.com format uses "ms". That means you'll need to convert your time of 12:03 into 12s 030ms.
Thanks !
If others players have something to share feel free to answer in this thread.
Hello people ! I recently played infernium and I loved it. I was curious to see the current speedrun here but unfortunaly the WR (white fountain) video is not available. I could watch the 2nd best time tho.
I would like to start routing the game soon and try finding new skips and eventually making a new route. Is there things I need to know that could help me ?
On a side note, when I got into The Garden I saw there was an hidden path (under the edge when going close to the sun) with a hole at the end of it. Looks like you can come from this way but do you know where ?
Thanks !
Hello everyone,
I just found out about this place and I would like to share my compilation videos I did some years ago.
I see it beats many levels current times so I hope you'll use my video to get motivations if you want to get better. Good luck and enjoy the videos ! (Dont mind about the bad english in the descriptions, I was younger x)
World 1
World 2
World 3
Level 12
And here is the spreadsheet I was using to sum up my work : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HbieIqKleU1mDrMUDvnGM-5LyGVMTfvh-6jBcn_4HaA/edit#gid=0 Back in 2014 I asked another great skullface player (awein999) the times he had on different levels and he gave me a spreadsheet with many times between different good players. Those time are registered in my spreadsheet as a reference to beat.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask !
%% is a category to those who wants to finish the game with whatever the % they want. It can be 15, 100 or 37 I don't know.
We could have a great diversity of routing depending of the % you would go.
Timing begins when selecting "Start" on a new file and ends when you shoot out of the electric wire in the escape sequence. Use of First Moon Skip, Amiibo, 2P, and Assist Mode is banned.
I think this might interest some of you here.
There are many information inside the video and the description. Check it out :)
I'll trining for any% to get the WR. I think sub 22 is possible if I optimize the route by a bit.
[ This issue has been fixed ]
Hello everyone, I'm currently working hard on doing a route for this category and while I'm still on it I've discovered that the time displayed at the end of the chapter is not a good reference.
Let me explain, when you start a chapter with your mate, you're seeing each other while being sit. Once both player have joined the server the time begins, which means the time at the end depends of your connection.
Here are some proof : Current WR Chapter 2 start around 2m29s and finishes around 5m18s (End of Chapter time 3m02s) While with my mate Chapter 2 starts around 34s and finishes around 2m10s (End of Chapter time 1m54s) (Language is in french but whatever)
It really shows that the time starts when both player can see each other but the duration of this non playable part depends of your connection. Coop WR waits around 10s while with my mate it's almost 20s.
What can we decide to fix this since the time at the end of the chapter is wrong ?
Edit : I forgot to say my mate and I are playing on the v1.08 because we can play on easy (which includes less ennemies) and this version is more stable.
