My feelings on The Demon Rush

I don't know if the stream archive is still up, but my bootcamp with hurblat is a 11:47 any%. I should probably spend more than a morning on Contra. Cheesy

This is so awesome!!! Glad to have my first post on SDA in such a cool thread.
Now my time on the video says 10:56. I'm aware I got excited and hit the split early. Let's call it a 10:59 for my sanity sake :D. I'm sure Heidman will tell me it's an 11:00 or 11:01 and that's fine haha. Also, don't mind the massive fist pump and lots of "fuck yeahs" at the end, I was streaming for like 6 hours and a bit delusional.

Let's drive these times down!!!

sinister1

so pro u don't even know

11:53 last night, but that time is not a reflection of what I can do, it had two deaths before the final stage. I should be able to get into the 11:30 range, maybe tonight Cheesy

EDIT: I see Hurblat already added my time. Here is the link for the run which was in fact dedicated to Hublat http://www.twitch.tv/sinisterwon/c/2346625

Willing to teach you the impossible

@Deuceler Looks like an 11:01 to me. Started your stage 1 late and stopped about 3ish seconds early. Amazing run though. Grats on your time.

Heck yeah Zoast, this game is awesome!

Also, TheMexicanRunner said he has a 10:59, I bet there is a highlight on his twitch but I have not looked.

Add 20 seconds to your time when using Jap to make it comparable to English

My PB right now is 13:15. It's bad enough that you can wait until I get a better one if you want, Hurb Smiley

Updated the first post with some helpful links.
The Contra hype is almost tangible! Thanks for all the times so far.

Ahhhh man. It's so heart breaking to know how close I am to sub 11:00. I wanna get down sub 10:30 soon. It's rad to see how many people are running this game now.

HELLO!

Nice setup here. I don't run Contra but I wanted to say I really like what you're building here in a community. In fact I kinda want to steal the Twitch notifier bot idea for Zelda II. Smiley

I gotta say that Hurblat has really brought together the scattered Contra community. It was all him and K. Just want to give an offical thank you.
