speedrunning

Speedrunning is the activity of playing a video game with the goal of completing it as quickly as possible, often employing advanced techniques, shortcuts, and precise strategies. Participants, called speedrunners, analyze game mechanics to minimize time, sometimes competing for world records or personal bests. It combines skill, knowledge, and creativity, and can involve various categories like any%, 100%, or glitchless runs. Speedrunning fosters a community where players share techniques and challenge each other, emphasizing mastery and innovation within the constraints of the game.
