Hey, I decided to ressurect this thread with a relevant subject - I pushed the skill ceiling of the game once again and did a 100% run (except stat achievements):

Maybe this should also get a category (100%)? Rules would be something like "Beat the game, while getting all non-stat achievements. Game must start from a fresh file. Time ends when you get the final non-stat achievement(s). After finishing a run, you must show the missing stat achievements in the top left corner of the museum. In case of finishing the run in the museum you must also reenter it before showing."

I think we should allow using it after all.

Reasons I think wasp jump should be allowed:

1. Technicall issues. For example, having a small table with no room to roll mouse around. Besides that, the cps would most likely depend on the quality of mousewheel. Numpad button spam with rebinds is out of my league - the person I know who used it uses like 3 fingers to mash, while I'm only able to spam successfully with just 2, which is not enough. Not to mention, the amount of buttons you have to hold and buttons to spam would totally destroy someone's fingers / be really uncomfortable to the point you can't concentrate on the game.

2. Making the game accessible to everyone. Pretty obvious, and comes as a conclusion to first statement. Let's be honest - fangame speedrunners are a rare sight, and I'm sure, when new to the game, they would be too picky to come up with any spam technique except wasp and just not try for a good run. Not to mention, current WR forces you to use flying. So I think making everyone, including potential new runners, to have a chance at trying WR or at least sub 40 would be a good idea, since WR is like 50 seconds away from the perfect run anyways, which is really tight (not counting in teleports here).

3. Just to stay sane while trying to kill the game. Obviously. I think it's better to show examples of it: such as boshy any% rules (dark boshy and double shot allowed) or GB (wasp shooting allowed cuz bosses have million hp).

I already talked about this with Raff and Gpalm_ and we came to the conclusion that it would be ok to have autojumping allowed.

Now we want to make sure that our decision is verified by supermods.

You can stick with True Lunatic%.

So, recently I've done a lunatic run, but I started from fresh savefile:

Maybe add this as a new category (TrueLunatic%) ?

Also, unlike any% you can play on easy mode during the game clear split, because you would still unlock extra/lunatic.

At first glance, it might seem this is just a category that adds extra hour to lunatic%, but there are some differences like you have to do extra boss and you don't have a +9 pistol (you get only up to +6 if you don't farm), which makes final boss a bit more challenging (and imo a bit more fun).
