Hollow Knight, but the speed increases every 3 minutes...

  • In this challenge run, I installed a Hollow Knight mod that allows me to adjust the speed of the game. Every 3 Minutes, the speed will increase by 0.05 times, additively. Can I beat the game before it becomes completely unplayable? Really, this is an odd speedrun, where you need to beat the game faster to make it slower, so that you can beat it in the first place.
    This was recorded live on Twitch! My Twitch is my main platform, and I stream Hollow Knight speedruns over there: / blue_sr_

    Massive credits to 56 for making the mod, which you can download on Scarab.

      ​@@spoongrman Tool Assisted Speedrun. Tl;dr: Tools outside the game are used to create a demonstration of a speedrun that is technically possible, but not necessarily feasible for a person to pull off.
      The most common sort of TAS has the creator picking exactly what input is given on exactly which frame. This allows a TAS to be 'perfect' - it never has to play safe, it does all the hardest skips and tricks first try, etc etc.
      Blue has some videos showing off various TASes, I'd recommend giving them a look if you're interested.
