I'm curious to see how they are going to run UFO 50.

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Looking at that one, they have it labeled as "showcase" so they'll probably do a limited collection of content in the game to demonstrate particular tricks and strategies but not the whole thing.

It sounds like it will be more free-form, but going forward, I suppose we will see individual UFO 50 runs? Or maybe blocks of games that are accepted as the speedrunning standard. It's a weird one to manage for sure.
