I remember this from the Stream.

This is a really awesome proof of concept game. I think it's a shame you can't really watch the level being generated, so I made some modifications - the camera pans the construction of the speedrun course, and during play I made it provide a little more viewing room to see what you're doing. I also tidied up the code and added comments! G 001 HCD V5M

@EvenFox Hey! Awesome game, thanks for feedback on my mods. You definitely had the right idea on the quick fall placement. I pushed my mod out pretty quick before testing it much and it's definitely easier to use the quick fall with a different finger than the spin. I didn't catch the issue with the sunlight reflections on the HUD since I kept toying with it and ultimately settled on pitch black + neon, with some light effects on the player. I had a lot of fun specifically studying and rebuilding your random generation code. It took me several iterations until I re-implemented a function of your code where it won't successively repeat the same movement along the same axis. Without that, the occasional clustering of blocks gets totally wiped out and the courses just aren't as interesting.

@EvenFox I made one final version, complete ground-up rebuild (G 003 NT2 3T4) Main features: 1) fixed issue with the checkpoint sometimes fixing itself to the sides of blocks 2) made the checkpoint strictly progressive so you don't lose progress if you fall and land before teleporting back up 3) added a progress bar that tracks (a) checkpoint height, (b) current height, and (c) max height reached 4) now the game resets the player to the beginning of the course to try again after reaching the finish, which is good for learning the course for better speedrunning and is also good for passing the controller to a friend for competition 5) a button combo goes to a new course now 6) also tweaked the level generation a bit to produce more varieties of clusters, which _technically_ makes it easier but also highlights the speedrun challenge of "which path is optimal" Kept a comment in there near the 0,0,0 point crediting you for the original game. I've had a lot of fun working with it, and a friend and I have enjoyed racing each other in it. We've had two courses so far where our best times were 0.02 and 0.05 seconds apart!
