If you are still interested in this game, we can start separating current patch and old patch runs, because the game isn't totally broken anymore. The load remover would be a good idea since we can start fresh-ish for new runs in a new any% category. (If anyone is still interested after me dropping the ball here)
Glad to see more people playing the game. Giving me encouragement to try more speedruns! Nice run!
That category was renamed incorrectly by invalidusername, sorry.
For no upgrades all of the stats you can spend money on need to be at 0. If you look at my run they are all at 100.
Edit: You can still choose your loadout for the weapon/special ability, as long as your upgrades are at 0.
I'd be happy to mod for this game! I'm kinda the only one who even partially runs it anyways.
Yeah I don't think console categories are really necessary.
I don't believe the current categories make a lot of sense for the game. The categories don't take any of the game's mechanics in to consideration. I propose including the following when determining the categories:
The game has multiple difficulty levels depending on what level overseer you have beaten. (Overseer V1, V2, V3...etc.) You can change the difficulty at will.
You can upgrade your character to 100 by default, and much further with considerable work.
You can select a weapon, upgrade, and ability to start the game with. More abilities and stronger weapons at higher overseer levels.
The game has a different number of floors depending of the difficulty. Overseer V1 has 25 floors, while Overseer V2 has more.
Taking this in to consideration, I believe the categories should be remade as: Overseer 1, No Upgrades, Glitchless Overseer 1, 100 Stats, Glitchless
With the rules that after every run the mod menu must be shown after to show no mods are active (On PC).
Possibly add higher overseer levels if someone would like. Allow ability, upgrade, and gun selection for each of these because no one wants to reset until they get a good combo. I can also add a save file with most things unlocked and 100 in every stat if anyone is interested.
I know a lot of people don't speedrun this game but I find it very fun and want the categories to more appropriately fit the game.
I'm planning on doing so, but I need to wait a bit longer to be sure the current moderator will continue to be inactive.
Having done a few runs, I find it very fun! It may be rng hell, but learning the way the game generates it's levels and working around that is proving to be interesting.
The moderator for https://www.speedrun.com/Neon_Chrome has been inactive for over 3 weeks. Also the categories for the game make no sense for the game. Is it possible to make me the moderator for the game? I tried tweeting them, I can wait a bit longer if you really need though.
Okay, so, the categories made for this game don't make sense? Is the moderator for this active at all?
I'm finally going to start seriously speed running a game. Sadly no one is currently running it and the categories make no sense in the context of the game, but I'm excited to start!
