Community Update Post For 12/7/2023

Hello Everyone, this post is only focused for Remastered. The leaderboards has many new changes, as well as a returning feature. Here is a list of all the new changes.

Console separation has returned. The idea of combining them all was a dumb decision that I, Arctic Flesh, have admitted was not a smart move. That being said, in the state the game is in now, with features like deleting cutscenes and using an auto splitter, the game is primarily a PC speedrunning game, and anyone who strives to be at the top will have to run on PC.

Fountain% has been moved to Category Extensions and we now have a new main category: Experienced%. The new category is the exact same as Any% and Professional%, where you would select the Experienced difficulty when doing a run. The reason Fountain% was moved to Category Extensions is due to it feeling like a gimmick category, so it will go with all the other gimmick categories. If you completed a Fountain% run in the past, don't worry, your runs have transferred over.

All Bosses% is being revamped. The grandfather rule of the category was to wait for a cutscene to load after defeating a boss, and some bosses had weird exceptions where you can skip after finishing a fight. That concept is now removed. The new rule moving forward for All Bosses% is you have to wait for your money to be earned after finishing a boss, then you can leave the level to the next boss. THIS DOES NOT EQUAL TO IMMEDIAETLY LEAVE AFTER FINISHING A FIGHT. You have to wait for the first frames of earning cash from a boss to leave the level. This change should make the category more enjoyable and fun to play, as well as finishing runs in a speedily manner.

All runs moving forward for any main category or individual level must put down if you either used an auto splitter, removed cutscenes, or even both. All current runs as of now have both of these anotations on every run.

For PC players only, using an auto splitter is allowed for every main category and individual level.

I hope everyone is excited for these new changes. As a reminder for the community, there is likely to be a New Years Eve Ghostbusters Movie Watch Party, so if you are free, you are more than welcome to come. Now get back out there, Slimer escaped again.

Alright, so I didn’t test the money on screen setting for speedrunning All Bosses and the money drops at random times, so the new rule is you have to wait for the boss to be completely defeated. So for ghosts, when the trap is fully closed. And for everyone else, when you see them fully defeated. So that’s Stay Puft splatting, Azetlor exploded, Chairman completely exploded, and Slor submerged fully in the black slime
