RULES: You MUST play the game using the RGR Plugin in 'Timetrial Mode' and take a screenshot of the ending screen by pressing F6 when you've completed the game. To play in 'Timetrial Mode', scroll down the page where it shows the Speed Runs, you'll see a link that says 'Click Here to Compete for Speed Run', click that. Once you've taken your screenshot, click the link near that one that says 'Click Here to Submit your Speed Run' to submit your speed run. The video must be uploaded to the vizzed youtube account.

Competition begins now.

This game makes me shiver, it has the worst music playing over and over and over, the worst controls ever, it's very hard and cryptic and you have to be precise to win. I've only beaten this game once but if you are good enough you can beat this game in literally 2 minutes with a lot of luck. Most likely though you will need at least 15 but I don't know if I can get an entry down it's really hard.

UFC : It's known for being a bad game but I picked it for being such a short game. Those 2 things will make this competition interesting.

Davideo7 : It's doable and you can do it quick, but not without drilling going through the game a few times, i think there's limited continues too.   

Davideo7 : Must this game be played on Medium mode?

Awesome-Kid :

David's been pretty lax on difficulty modes, so you can get away with Easy mode. In fact, you can beat this game in under a minute if you go straight to the final boss! The only difference among difficulty modes is the fact that you actually have to collect certain things in harder difficulty modes.

I don't think I can do it, I get all the way near the end and when i try and jump on the rope he doesnt grab it falls all the way back down into the basement.

Davideo7 : for some reason the entries I sub never record the accurate time, they don't at all match up with how quickly the videos are finished at all.

This game will really have trouble when first playing. but after a few times you will get used to the controls. And just over one minute 30 seconds to finish the game once you get used to the controls. Sounds very bad, my wife did not tolerate it, D
