FreePaint% is an idea I came up with for people who want to speedrun DeBlob without having to worry about anything but their movement and timing. FreePaint% would be achieved by completing every level in the game during Free Paint mode as quickly as possible. The timer starts upon selecting the given button on the loading screen for each level and ends upon reaching the end pool of Ministry Of Ink(you can’t play Lake Raydia in Free Paint mode). I love the movement options in this game, and I feel that this category is something that should exist for people like me who love planning routes, wall jumping and running, and getting to end as fast as possible with no strings attached. This would also give a viable use to the gate skips that can be found in various levels of the game. Below are my IL times for the first runs of each DeBlob level and the link to the video for my first full FreePaint% run time for the whole game. I am definitely not the best at this game, so all of these runs could definitely be improved in the near future. I feel that the possibilities for this category are very expansive and that new routes and skips can be found fairly easily if this category is further pursued. NOTE: All of these runs were completed on the recently released Nintendo Switch port for the game.
