Hey, so the current categories (Short, Medium, Long, Marathon Game) are not really suited for speedrunning. Unlike Mario Party, or other party games, the order of the games isn't random, and given that most of the minigames have timers, there really isn't much to improve except for getting the fastest game list.
So I thought of deleting those categories and making just a category for the minigames that aren't timed (and you can actually improve). You can do this by creating a custom game and choosing only those minigames. I think it would be better than doing an hour of timed games in which there is nothing to do but wait for the timer to run out.
The same would apply to the categories of Monster Rumble and Dino Den. What do you think? I can come up with the list of not-timed games btw.
Alright great. I'll post a list of the speedrunnable minigames here later today. And yeah, for ILs, I think we should have a bigger playerbase honestly. I mean, currently I'm the only player so I don't really see a reason of making a lot of categories just because.
Also for some minigames there is just not much to it to make it an level leaderboard imo.
Ok so I checked all the minigames, these are the ones that don't have a timer:
- Astro Blaster
- Cosmic Keepers
- Crash Test Dummies
- High Dive
- Nitro Racing
- Piston Peril
- Robot Throwing 8.) Space Jumping
- Barrel Bashing (It has a timer but it has an ending)
So my proposal for the category would be to play a custom game with these 9 games, in any order (except for Barrel Bashing, which should always be at the end). Time starts when you press the Red Button on the main menu, starting the custom game. Time ends when your position appears after clearing the last barrel.
I would add the rules myself but I'm not a mod. Could you add them?
Also I'll be doing the same for Monster and Dino in the following days.
for all games, most of the minigames are on a timer which means they are not speedrunnable
