Although we still had 10 reinforces, in an ideal run you'd have like 16 I believe - that would take a good chunk of time to chew through
These guys definitely would not have gone for that xD But when I'm with my actual group and not randos, definitely gonna do that lol
- Yes, tracks can be done in any order.
- We never had anyone ask about crashes since they aren't all that common. Let's say you can reboot the game and continue running if it's between maps, but not if a crash happens in the middle of a track. If this becomes a major issue, we can re-evaluate.
- Yeah, this is not an issue :)

@silychris999 The deluxe version. You can either upgrade standard, some are upgrading from the subscription to a permanent copy, or giving the copy to a friend. Up to the individual how they want to use it :)
Following up today after yesterday’s $10,000 Speedrun Challenge announcement with some more even exciting news - we are super excited to announce that Ubisoft has not only sponsored this challenge with a whopping $10,000 prize pool, but an incredible 200 game keys for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Deluxe Edition!
We will be giving away 200 PC copies of the game to the first 200 runners who submit a verified speedrun for the Pit of Eternal Sands category in the PoP:TLC $10,000 Speedrun Challenge! Already have the Deluxe Edition? Feel free to give it away to a friend, or a fellow speedrunner!
We hope you’re all as excited about this as we are. Go follow the challenge, and be amongst the first 200 to snag your free copy by submitting a speedrun. Happy running everyone, stay tuned for more exciting updates! :)

I've wanted to implement it as an official feature since I saw @Walgrey's post in 2021, it's just not a big priority comparatively. Maybe 2024 wrapped tho :p
Yeah I don't think so unfortunately, but at least there's the seasons subcategory
