Run Submission Requirements

• Full, unedited video proof is required.
• Video and Audio must be clearly visible and audible.

For Full Runs:

• The run must start from a new save
• Usually some kind of ending is achieved

For Mini-Challenges:

• These are for Boss Challenges, Individual Levels, or something similar.

For Challenges:

• Refer to default global rules. Keep in mind these are generally how the challenges are done. If you or your community feels something is unavoidable, it can be listed as an exception.

These defaults apply while game-specific rules are under community review.

• The video must start from the game’s main menu.
• The final results screen shown after the credits must be included in the video, as it displays the scenario, game mode, total time and saves.
• Cosmetic modifications (such as character skins) are allowed as long as they do not affect gameplay and do not include any inappropriate or explicit (NSFW) content.
• Saving is only allowed using the game’s built-in save system. External tools or programs (such as trainers or debug menus) are not allowed. Save files may only be created in case of a crash, and only if the run is being streamed.
• Runs that are not streamed must be completed in a single session, with no saves at all. Hard/Nightmare difficulty modes are exclusive to the PC and Dreamcast versions of the game.
• Major glitches are not allowed.
• Going outside the intended playable area (“out of bounds”) is not allowed.
• FPS must be capped at or below 120fps.
• FPS needs to be displayed during the run (You can activate this in “Steam > Settings > in-game > in game FPS counter) or using Riva tuner.
• FPS settings may not be changed during the run.
• FPS rules only apply to the PC version of the game.
• Loading autosaves is forbidden.
• Graphics Settings may only be changed at Boss fights to allow higher/consistent framerate.
  • If graphics settings are changed for Boss fights, it must be visible during the video. If graphics Settings changes are cut from the video, the run will be rejected.
• If chief Irons grabs you in sherry’s section, RUN IS OVER.
• Stair Skating is allowed.
• No Damage and No Hit are completely separated challenges, this should not be confused since they are different runs. No damage implies that the life bar does not drop below 100% at any point in the game and no hit implies other characteristics that are explained in the challenge section of it.
