So I made a livesplit analysis tool that runs entirely in a modern browser, it'll give you stats, history of attempts/pbs/etc, and of course some pretty graphs: beninswe.github.io/livesplit…

Who would have thought, after all these years, that there was a time save hidden in plain sight with Gapsule? Deferring the 1st, 3rd and 5th swings saves over half a second over the existing strat. It's RTA-viable with just knowing when to not be on the button.

A monumental change has happened for Sonic 2. As of April 17th, 2024, Sonic 2 (1992) speedruns will now use RTA-TBC as its primary timing method moving forward! We ran a poll with 30 individual Sonic 2 Speedrunners voting on the matter. Here were the results...

New Sonic 2 sauce in 2023! Slope Glitch can be performed at the start of Metropolis Act 3 with a setup that involves Sonic triggering a screenwrap while standing on an object. The glitch allows Sonic to bounce on the boss. One second faster for Sonic. 8 seconds faster for Knux.

I think @huds601 needs this to track the cats on loaf cam.
For the last 2 weeks I’ve swapped out my MacBook Webcam for the Insta360 Link Webcam. Obviously the sharpness improved during video calls, going from 1080p to 4K But there’s actually a lot more…(1/3) #ad:

I don't always see eye to eye with Drakodan on things, but with this, I can say I 100% do.
