Washington, USASadly there is not.
Skeed, Schady and I had to watch the single player run and formulate a 3 person coop run. There is a guide for solo play but we never got around to making a coop guide as we moved on from the game
Rapid Runs 4 Fun aims to create a positive impact in the gaming community by providing a welcoming space for speedrunners. Our goal is to highlight amazing individuals and games that often go unnoticed. We want our community to see RR4F as a place to connect with others, improve as a runner, learn new skills, and support each other.
Founded by VexGamingTV, SongofSoil, and with the help of Ghibli Guy, our vision is to build a platform where runners of different games and skill levels can come together and expand their horizons. We've noticed that speedrunning fosters tight knit communities, with many runners sticking to their own game or series. We want to change that by promoting unity and encouraging runners to try new games, even if they're not familiar with them in hopes this will break through social boundaries in speedrunning.
To encourage friendly competition and offer community events, we host Bounties, where players compete for cash prizes by achieving the fastest time in a selected game within a specific time frame. We make sure to include games from various genres, many of which are lesser-known.
Another event we plan to organize is Battle Night, where two runners face off in a 1v1 Blind Speedrun. They have one hour to see who can progress the furthest in a game they've never played before. This event tests their adaptability and fosters a sense of camaraderie.
We currently have 2 bounties on-going for a prize pool of $100
We also want to have Movie Nights, where the community suggests movies and votes on which one to watch each month. This gives runners a chance to relax and socialize in our Discord server.
In the future, we plan to host Speedrun Marathons. These marathons will showcase the skills and talents of our community while also raising funds for charitable causes. We believe your passions and hobbies can make a difference.
If you're interested become a Rapid Runner today!
Hello runners, I'm a new runner for soulstice and wanted to Introduce myself.
Ive currently learned the run up to chapter 9 and it's been a blast re-routing and finding small time saves.
Not sure if anyone is active but I'd love to add people on discord to discuss the game and the route.
Girl Genius: Adventures in castle heterodyne is a 3D Action Adventure Puzzle game that has you playing as Agatha, a quick witted and strong armed spark. (mad scientist)
You will arm yourself with multiple gadgets as you solve puzzles, upgrade your arsenal, and take on bosses through Castle Heterodyne to reclaim it.
There is two catagories as of right now: Any% & 100% but there is possibilities for more such as: Dingbot%, Portrait%, & Arena%.
Currently there is 1 major skip, a few shortcuts, and some tech that has been found, the any% run currently sits at 55 mins.
If you're interested in running the game please follow the SRC page and join the discord!
Sorry I've been beyond busy with life. I would gladly give someone else mod but no one has a verified email that ive tried. So let me know if any of you want it
After great success with the first event I've decided to up this up to the public.
Rival Runners is an event based off of GDQ Hotfix's Grudge Matches, but is held in a tournament format where two runners are pitted against each other and play a game neither of the runners have played so essentially a blind speedrun with a 1 hour time limit to see who can either beat the game or get the furtherest.
The first event had a total of 12 runners and futured a wide variety of games covered all types of genres. If you're interested in this event please join the discord where you can find the sign ups. https://discord.gg/aM8yVTmxaw

Hello everybody, I'm SongofSoil! I'm here to offer another challenge and reward for those who love speedrunning!
The last event didn't really take off but that was to be expected once the time was found to be almost 4 hours and the prize was only $150. This time I'm offering double that and for a run that is already almost under 23 minutes.
For questions concerning the challenge you can message me on discord: SongofSoil#9286

RTA Timing/LRT can be calculated after the run.
Timer Starts when selecting Home from level select. (You can also reset Checkpoint if you're still within the starting area)

We are approaching the final hours of the event, sadly no runs have been submitted.
With no participation I've come to the conclusion the game was too hard and too long for the prize pool I had set, so the next game I promote will be a much shorter run (-30 mins) and I will be offering double the amount $300 or more.
I'll be posting the next event on March 5th (this will also be promoted by the devs.)
I hope to see some runs this time as I believe this will be a very fair and rewarding event. ❤️
MaykHibiki you could make someone else a mod along side you so the game can progress while you focus on other projects
I've always been into video games so when twitch.tv started to be a thing and speedrunners were showing up I found a few I liked, after watching them for awhile I dcdied I'd give speedrunning a shot and the first game I ran was Flynn son of crimson.
It's been a fun journey and I highly recommend the hobby to anyone looking for self improvement.
