Yeah I noticed some speed reduction during some parts while not 'jumping downwards'. Mostly noticeable by not making the same distance for jumps following those parts, but had no idea how or why so thats something to take in mind.
My flying part was kinda blind in that run (didnt even knew what the fire lazers button was at the beginning) as it was a long time since I did that part. Specially surprised that I didnt die at the last deathstar part, also the reason I decided to upload the full run as it wasnt a super bad run, but has lots of room for improvement.
Gz on beating even your offline record by a lot.
I noticed you used some different routes compared to the old record. Any idea if this is the fastest. Mainly interested in the deathstar maze and the tatooine airspeeder part.
At least nice to see the category being added. I did play it on an emulator (FCEUX 2.2.2) with the PAL emulation of (so i guess its NTSC?).
For myself I had some troubles setting up runs for live streaming. It didnt feel right might been the emulator I was using (tried out several) or just my PC power. Therefore i did most of the runs offline which wasnt a real incentive for me to keep playing as the hassle with uploading/editing/deleting files and whatnot was a pain. (I have a 11:08 run where i didnt die on the elevator fall \o/, but that was not really worth adding at that point).
I recently upgraded my computer so might want to try to check if my streaming setup feels better now.
So my first decent time, although it has lots of room for improvement, comes down to 11:09.
Dont know if its good enough to 'start' the new category, but its something ;)
Also do we need to add some proof for making the 55% (going game over in the first flying section maybe?). It is not in this video although you can see me collecting all the parts: Blaster R2D2 Obiwan Han Solo Computer outlet Leia
At least this is the run that i have in mind running, which can act as a good setup to a full 100% run
So my first run i got a time of 20:54 for a 100% up to the final 3 flying stages. Continued like 5 times, getting lost in death star etc ;)
Also didnt record it as it is obviously not really worth posting. But the main question is what is a time worth posting. Just anything to get some kind of competition going and the ability to break (your own) record, or only something like under 10min?
Also when this part is mastered i think the 3 final stages are a doable step to a full 100% run (that is also why i am doing the 100% up to the flying run instead of any%).
Edit. Best run so far around 13.30 with sum of best just under 11mins. Will soon start recording to submit some kind of starting time. (i dont know if you can count the time from the current WR100% for the new categorie, which is just under 9min?)
Any chance to add a category that ends before entering the final 3 flight parts. Those really ruin my fun in playing the game (at least speedrun wise).
Might be also because im not good at them (and at the moment dont want to figure out how to do them properly) but ending the game with 3 (kinda) autoscrollers takes the fun out of the game for me to play it over and over to set a time.

I dont see why not (although there is no option to choose ps3 (or 2 or gamecube etc) yet). Guess they all somewhat belong to the emulator Platform.

There is a nice guide posted here http://www.speedrun.com/Flicky/guides but best thing may be to watch a complete run and practice level by level.
