How speedrunning works:
In Singleplayer mode only, a stopwatch in the secret Room 17 will start immediately when the game loads. It only stops after all 51 Cool Cash have been collected.
This means that you will have to select "Stay" 3 times during the game to see your final game time; at 40, 50 and 51 Cool Cash.

The stopwatch permanently disappears after 1 hour. I've intentionally placed it in the secret room, because I don't want to stress out non-speedrun players.

To qualify for the Hall of Fame, you will have to send me a video of your run.

Do note that the timer is a bit wonky. The time should be accurate, but the digits may change with about a 1 second difference. This is due to an issue with the game editor, but I'm working on a better timer :)

If you can complete the room faster than 12:19, you're officially faster than the developer of the room ;)

Managed a 9:21 on this run! Still some slight optimisations to be made, I stumbled on a few things here and there as well which cost precious seconds, but overall pretty happy with this one

That's incredible! A well deserved new first place to you!! :D
Love the video too, it's so cool seeing people speedrun the room, and I liked how you planned your route around the hunt for #51!
I actually may have an optimization suggestion - did you know that your character moves slightly faster while running diagonally? It's slightly harder to steer, but if you hold two directional buttons at the same time, you'll run faster :D

Hi, this helped a lot.
I managed to get 8:26, but here's what you can improve
- Walking diagonally (forwards and side at the same time) is faster than normal walking
- Take the teleporter from the room 6, and after putting the tshirt, beans and the chineese food, use it to get back to the room; much faster traveling

Was it in coop? Sounds like a classic desync issue 😊
