Hawaii, USAHello,
Would it be possible to get an arcade category and arcade - coop category added?
Have a 2P run to submit.
Thank you.
Hello ivan,
Was wondering if we could add a 2P category to this game? HighWarlordJC and I have a run to submit :)
Thank you!
Hello all,
Just wanted to note that the developer has stated that likely the next major patch or two he plans to add a 5th level to the game.
This will likely cause all runs to be invalidated and archived with all categories being refreshed for the new 5 Level game when it occurs.
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up in advance.
Thank you! We completed a full play through of "Beat the Game" with 2 players. Video will be coming out tomorrow on the YT chan.
Not sure how that one got past, but they should be set up now.
Thank you again for all your hard work on timing and investigating these items.
For now I have added PS4 and Switch to the list of available systems.
Hello Chuseum,
I would like to request a 2P Coop category please. I have a run to submit with my arcade partner.
Thank you!
Went to do this but then realized that this game is named Raiden (Arcade) because I intended to only cover arcade with it. Will get game name updated to Raiden (Other) (similar to Raiden 3) and will add other platforms.
Well its been over a month, multiple messages to the mods, and no response or action. So I suppose I will just post my run here and hope that in the future someone is moderating this game who can be bothered.
Howdy Ninpo,
Was looking at this game on http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/dettaglio_mame.php?game_name=redhawk&search_id=1 and seems that it is the Korean release version of Stagger 1 http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/dettaglio_mame.php?game_name=stagger1&back_games=redhawk;&search_id=1
Just wanted to let you know if you are looking for some competition / community on this game Stagger 1 is on SRC at https://www.speedrun.com/stagger_i
Not sure if the Red Hawk clone version has any rom differences though, or maybe is a different game in some way and I am not fully understanding.
Take care
Hello all runners,
Current problems with this game emulation wise:
-
Timer runs slightly faster in emulator
-
Some graphics and lighting effects not popping in
-
Sound garbled.
-
Can only select Beginner in Time Trial
Because of this we are going to be separating the Original and Emulated categories for now. And in the future if emulation improves, be aware that your emulated runs might become obsolete / easily beaten when the timer is completely fixed.
Based on my own experiences running this, mixed with this review status from a bit ago by Video Game Esoterica:
Hello sorry its taken me a while to get back to you on this.
The truth is that I am not 100% sure on the best way to handle this. The fact that this port is essentially on 5 different systems, I am not sure if the correct move is to open a category just for this port, or to open categories for all the systems it is now on (maybe Xbox port runs faster than PS port for example)
Any thoughts? Want to ensure we cover this one.
Just wanted to comment that we have brought up a Raiden III board for the other platforms located here: https://www.speedrun.com/Raiden_III_Other
Have directed PS2 runners to this board in the category rules.

Currently the final time is based on the Final Time at the end of races. This allows for knocking time off by Tricks, Air time, and most importantly Snowball + Takedowns. Its also not strictly "fastest".
Alternative idea is to used Elapsed Time displayed at end of races, which is a more honest assessment of how long the race took, with no benefits to style play.
For now Ive gone with the Final Time timer, because it allows for more varied play and strategies. If other runners disagree though, we could change it in the future. Let me know what you think!
After some prodding we managed to convince someone on the TeknoParrot team to re-add the "Run in Original Resolution" flag that should address this. Testing to come soon!
