Bugsnax Developers React to 15 Minute Speedrun

At 15 minutes in, I was just barely learning how to fling ketchup at Bungers. As it turns out though, just days after release, speedrunners have figured out how to skim through the entire game in the time it takes to watch an episode of Good Eats. So ride along with developers from Young Horses as they watch and react to this very fast, incredibly delicious speedrun (right in time for Thanksgiving!)

It makes me genuinely happy that the most efficient way to play this game for an any% speedrun involves getting the best ending

[@TheNo1pencil]

There are multiple endings?

[@hooray4skeleton]

@@TheNo1pencil if you don't complete all the sidequests for a character and they've eaten a lot of bugsnax by the time you get to the end of the game things can go VERY badly for them, and while none of the sidequests get finished in the speedrun, since there's barely any bugsnax-eating and destroying the snax that run at you is much faster than letting the characters eat them the bad ends get sidestepped. Feel free to look up footage of the worst ending(s) if you've never seen them, but prepare to have your heart broken.

[@robotnoir5299]

Testers don't pick which bugs are important. They log ALL bugs in a database, and the priorities of each bug are decided later, by management and admin. The tester _should_ be able to say "Oh yes, we know about that one. It's already described in the bug database, but it hasn't reached the top of the priority list yet". It would be more dignified if he'd simply said "Oh wow. I hammered the hell out of that stage, and never found that bug. These speed-runners are impressive. Maybe we should employ them as testers." No-one expects the test team to find _everything,_ yet this guy had an ego, and had to pretend he knew about every little exploit before the speed-runners found it. He came across as ungracious. Why not just give credit to the speed-running community's skill and initiative? Severe case of short-man-syndrome, it you ask me.@@Rotem_S

yeah!! but also there's funny creatures and they have funny names and it's rated 7+ SOMEHOW

[@Emerald-Fluffie]

They just have the energy of “I’m not mad, just disappointed” Like “no, no, it’s FINE that you skip what we worked hard on… totally fine…”

[@Whateverfloatsurboat2]

Wait at the end did they just confirm bugsnax 2? Can't wait for bugsnax madden

[@rjlefty96]

One of them keeps calling Snorpy Floofty for some reason.

Wow that's one buggy game Ba dum tss

I accidentally used that pun like a week ago on a comment and someone pointed it out. It works pretty well.

[@theguywhoasked2352]

You got the whole squad laughing _I will fill your ears with lava if you make such a joke again so you don’t have to experience your own poison_

@@theguywhoasked2352 calm down it’s not that bad of a joke. Also I wouldn’t call us a squad but I guess we laughed.

Okay, so this might sound a little crazy... They're kinda bug, kinda snack. I know it's weird, shocking in a way, but it is the truth.

[@stugranger731]

You might think it's impossible Until you see BOP BOP BOPSICAL

[@KazeTheCursedOne]

Honestly I'd love to see a reaction to a 100% bugsnax captured run too

[@kiraszabo1333]

I heard Bugsnax 2 And now I can't sleep *we need that-*

[@DoctorTex]

The Journalist in a nutshell. Filbo: NO TIME! Beffica: NO TIME! Eggabell: NO TIME! Lizbert: NO TIME! Wambus: Yeah I'll help you out buddy.

[@Fishingworth]

Watching the runner save more and more time on his segments as the run went on was the most satisfying thing.

[@FerreTrip]

"As long as people don't accidentally run into them" Yeah, uh, that made Bexx end up staying up over an hour later than she thought she would doing a nonstop stream of the game start to end, because exploring led to early peak on accident. She didn't even do the skip like this, she somehow got through the gap at the top of the mound of snow.

[@dreamwalker4485]

this game is actually fun isn't it?

[@bl33zy52]

i heard its a fun time, i actually havent heard anything bad about it

[@kinsbeans]

It's fun but it feels too short. Like I was already 3/4 of the game on my 3rd day playing it.

[@Cosmiichu]

@@kinsbeans 3 days is a long time tho I'd probably take 50 hours to beat it for sure cause i like taking things slow get everything in the the game etc

[@Imjudah-]

It’s amazing you should get it, it’s free on PlayStation plus

[@r15835]

It's pretty fun, and several let's players can attest to it. Even a dude like Vinny Vinesauce who thought the game would be purely memes ended up 100% it to enjoy all the character dialogue and trapping puzzles.

[@altoid3453]

Whats special about the tripshot is that its a solid object that can stick to that surface.

[@Yahula1edits]

I like the movement engine of this game ! reminds me of borderlands

[@logans.7932]

The best part is that the whole cast still basically survives. Like it’s still super possible, if not slightly hard because you haven’t done any side quests.

[@scottpeltier3977]

Me and the boys gathering together, eating our bungers while watching the devs question their existence

[@weirdkd54]

Love that the devs have their own speedrun tricks to playtest their games faster. Great series

[@pyromaniaxe3393]

As we’re climbing the mount meanwhile filbo talks to everyone and persuades them to come back some how then get to the under snax faster then you

[@5h4d0w5l1f3]

Key parts of the speedrun: abuse and neglect filbo

[@BoulderWraith]

Half of the speedrun is the ending

[@peepytime]

It's kind of funny how speedrunning this actually makes it easier to save the grumpuses because you've barely fed them any bugsnax

[@gabzpot]

Very interesting to watch this speedrun commented by developers of the game. We need more of that, please.

[@СергейЕжов-с1м]

we have entire series of that)

[@pandathecrusader5658]

I know nothing about this game but I love how the devs just decided to keep all the skips in and not fix them because they thought it would be cool.

[@Cheeeeseman]

I am playing this game now, thought that I was getting close to the end of the game, which to be fair I am, and I thought "I'll watch this up to the point where I am at, and stop watching." Thinking that I would watch about 80% before having to stop. Ended up only making it to 6 minutes in.

[@wyvern4588]

Pretty much if a glitch doesn't make the game broken or at least doesn't degrade the quality of life, it goes untouched, obviously speedrunners will sniff out these glitches or script skips and take advantage of them. I watched Vinny from vinesauce play this, it's actually a really well done game.

[@xtremeskills1]

6 YEARS??? damn that seems a long time to make a game like this

[@aminyashed8116]

Itd be cool if for these devs react to speedruns, you had the runner in the commentary too to answer the devs questions
