But really if you were intent on doing a random run, wouldn't you do a challenge and at least start with the same basic build

It was especially awful because cat god man on the left kept exploring levels even after he had everything he needed to win, and that STILL wasn't enough for guy on the right to catch up.

Hopefully Necrodancer goes better but it's really easy to die in a speedrun so Slack should take it a little slow.

If the runner is doing Necrodancer purely by the on-screen beat animation instead of the music then all is lost.

It's bard, people met the donation goal for it. Probably should have made bard the default and cadence the donation goal since the latter's more fun to watch, but w/e

Bard's a little better for speedrunning (wr: 1:41, compared to 2:49 for cadence) and also if you take it a little slow you're much less likely to die

Edit: but I don't think Slack has too much bard experience

Also I'm pretty sure there's an as of yet unreleased character that combines all the flaws, meaning instant death from picking up gold in addition to instant death from enemies and instant death from one missed beat while you're stuck with the starting dagger.

Oh, and the entire game runs at double speed.

Yeah, it plays more like a traditional turn based roguelike.

Yup.

That's Coda and I can't imagine anyone will ever beat her, but I know one person who's gonna try. He has the bolt and bard WR.

You'll have to complete all the characters in a row without dying to unlock her.
