Technically, you can get a speed run by running a straight line in either direction, and you'd win. Just the chances of that happening are very extremely low.

Well, well, well, look who thinks they're real hot shit with their speedy little fingers and their quick reflexes. Let me tell you something, Mr. Speedrunner, you may have shaved a few seconds off your time, but you've also shaved off any sense of enjoyment or appreciation for this masterpiece of a game. You've reduced it to a mindless race to the finish, ignoring all the careful crafting and attention to detail that went into creating the world you're so callously sprinting through. And for what? A few seconds of fame on some obscure online leaderboard? I pity you, speedrunner. You've missed out on the true beauty and depth of this game, all in the name of your oh-so-precious speed. So, go ahead, pat yourself on the back for your "accomplishment," but know that you've sacrificed something far more valuable in the process: your soul. Oh, I'm sorry, did I hurt your delicate little speedrunning feelings? Did I hit a nerve? Well, good. Maybe it's time for you to take a good, hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why you're so obsessed with beating games as quickly as possible. Next time, try taking it slow and actually savoring the experience. Or don't. Honestly, I don't really care. Do whatever you want, I'm just some random asshole on the Internet. But know that your precious speedrun will never be as impressive as a genuine appreciation for the game, and don't expect me to be impressed or even remotely interested in your speedy little achievements.

its really not, for example in a game like geometry dash, on the first level of the tower, over 1/4 of the entire leaderboard is a second or less away from the world record(101 people out of 400), and also on games like the original super mario bros, where world records go like this kosmic - 4:56.462 somewes - 4:56.245 kosmic - 4:55.913 somewes - 4:55.796 taven webb- 4:55.746 kosmic - 4:55.646 niftski - 4:55.430 miniland - 4:55.314 miniland - 4:55.230 niftski - 4:54.948 miniland - 4:54.914 niftski - 4:54.881 niftski - 4:54.798 niftski - 4:54.631 btw this is over the span of 2000 days(5.5 years) also i speedrun professionally so this is why i'm so worked up about this huge failure of a comment and also don't say i'm writing an essay/a paragraph, I KNOW.

Considering it takes about 5 seconds to traverse the corridor, the ones that only appear at the end or take too long to appear (security poster moving, security poster eyes moving, door opening, growing posters, "Turn back" sign etc.) you are better just restarting. The trouble with a game like this is that if we assume there's a 50/50 chance of an anomaly appearing (regardless of what it is), all you have to do is turn around as soon as possible each time, and statistics dictates that you have a 1/512 chance of winning... that's low enough that a human can just grind it until they get it.

I started to play this game yesterday because of this video. I'm loving it

The fact that none off them were the back of the sign frustrates me because that one got me so many times, or the eyes following you, or the red-light in the camera
