#Chiki’s silly den (Speedrunning era)
1 messages · Page 9 of 1
I did get my best sunbaked time ever tho, 1:53
My average is 2:15-2:30
Immediately died in aether but oh well 
im pretty sure other creatures know your exact location when your touching them and i think you touched the lizard
Oh really? I jump on liz all the time 
oh yeah i thought you new that
when you touch a creature it can instantly see you even if it doesnt have eyes
thats how rainworld works
i thought you OLD that
Hmm alr, I’ll keep that in mind

this is why centis kill you if you stand perfectly still and they run into you
otherwise they would just ignore you forever if you didnt move 
I thought that was just a centipede thing tbh
well its a rainworld thing
what about moon
does moon see slugcat when t hey tough her
does moon see watcher when they invis......................
ask moon
@ moon
but i thought u were moon
isnt your 2nd name BSM
big sis moon
🥹
or LTTM (looks to the moon)
yes those are all my names
but you stated that blind is your 2nd name here
Hmm new route found, where you get weaver in torrid not torrential
I quite like it, got to salination echo my first attempt
is it faster?
Not sure yet
Seems to be similar pace but no one’s finished a run
The route is
Torrid -> rusted-desolateX -> desolate echo -> turbulent echo -> heat ducts echo -> stormy echo -> signal -> salination echo -> terrace -> surface -> heat ducts -> torrential -> verdant echo -> fetid echo -> terrace -> aether-torridX -> torrid-badlandsX -> badlands echo -> fractured echo -> cold storage -> signal echo -> terrace -> signal -> aether -> shrouded-aetherX -> surface -> fetid -> salination -> migration-aetherX -> cold storage -shroudedX -> cold storage -> verdant -> cold storage -> surface-torridX -> migration -> turbulent -> cold storage-migrationX -> surface -> cold storage-sufaceX
oh so you are kinda like testing the run
Ye
oh this is watcher speedrun not oe%
Ye weaver%
ive been doing a proper room-by-room for oe%
to get better at the route
gonna take a while tho
Nice
I’ve only really optimised sunbaked and aether
The rest of the route I wing it
how would it be oe% 🥹
I just want a run done
idk
i thought you were in for the coin
run rot% no ones gonna run rot%
ok ill run rot% upload a 40h run and win a coin
joking i will never speedrun
The very end of the month
noooooo
I will do one like 4h rot run
not even oe% the best category?
no im not gonna speedrun anything
you could get good runs tho
specially after seeing chiki lose a 46 minute run its like wow this is NOT for me
if you tried
ye cause its watcher
do a shorter category
i couldnt take losing a run at 46 minutes
oe% is 16-17 min long
thats just 46 lost minutes
I do longer runs bc stuff like any% needs insane movement and optimisation
but if i lose a run at 11 minutes thats 11 lost minutes
if youre gonna lose a run at 11 minutes you wont need much runs to get wr
if your run survives that long youre not far off from your goakl
spedrunning is not for me because i will never be good enough to enter like top 5
you will
everything is possible
a lot of the fun categories arent super optimized
its only like
survivor any
like if i knew i could get something good done ok at least i COULD try it
that is optimized to the max
theres so many good categories without many runs
hunter moon% is a fun one for hunter
and not super optimized
but i still find annoying losing runs at 12 minutes
you could def get top5 huntermoon%
i find annoying losing even at 3 mins lol
how did you play gd
what if you lose at
80%
in a 3 min lvl
a lot do tho\
no lol
youre also good at rainworld
your movement is less polished than mine but youre not far off
ive just been doing it for longer
the hard levels are 1:00-1:30 in duration lol
there are some long ones but its the exception not the rule
idk i prefer longer levels maybe thats why i think theres many cause i dont play that many short ones lol
nowhere near as good tho
yeah but the skill required for rw speedruns isnt close to the skill needed for gd levels
what???
maybe for like
monk pebs and survivor any
but for less contested categories like oe% moon% and story%
definitely no
have you even
seen the runs
Just because the movement isn’t fully optimised doesn’t mean the runs aren’t still hard
flora you are missing something very important here
There’s a lot of rng to speedruns
they are hard but theyre nowhere near as hard as you think
gd is one input
and 7 gamemodes
this is why gd is so easy for me im good at 1 input

rainworld is 7 inputs but 1 gamemode with slight changes for msc
all of which use the same input
Expedition and bingo don’t exist 🥹
what
thats not speedruns
thats a completely diff skillset
that doesnt count
There are expedition speedruns
Also yeah a reason why speed running rainworld specifically sounds so unappealing to me is rng
i dont rlly know about exp speedruns
I just don’t feel like it’s a fun game to speed run
tehyre so obscure and unoptimized
Exactly why I like them 
in theory if you optimize allperks% there would be a lot of stuff to keep track of yeah
but i havent seen anyone come close to that
That’s fair, I find it the opposite, rng sort of evens the playing field? There’s never going to be a 100% perfect run
imo the rng is annoying but the fun of movement overtakes the annoyingness of the rng for me
i really enjoy rw movement its really satisfying for me
I’m not really into movement as I enjoy…knowing the game? Seeing a lizard and assessing your options in your room, knowing the best way to deal with the situation at all times
That kinda thing is what I really love about rain world
Ctvs are already awful to do and let’s not talk about the “I” things
thats fair
i love the movement personally
that should be obvious lol
I actually love all of rainworld but the movement
:(
we are not the same
I enjoy combat a lot because it’s so easy killing everything once you are experimented lol
im indifferent to combat but im not very good at it
i just movement over creatures
the main reason i wanted to learn i- moves so much cause they are very good at evading creatures fast
ispin skips all lizards besides red
Hellish tech
yeah its hard
Just mouthspear the lizards
ive never done a 1frame input before
impossible for me </3
I don’t think I have the physical ability for i moves 🥹
Mouthspear is actually so easy lol
anyway como did you see i did my first ipounce today
Just learn the timing
idk i tried in sandbox for 2h once
and
it didnt go well]
I can only do slide mouthspears
And even then not very consistently
I dont risk them on reds
What is with these ads 
enjoy youtube 2025
Just opened it on my phone to skim, never been so grateful for ad blockers
you dont have an ad blocker on browser?
Not on my phone
i got ad blockers on both phone and pc
but i only use phone to watch yt because horrible new ui or something on pc
Ah i never use my phone other than when im out
Anyone wanna play meadow or bingo? Don’t feel like speedrunning today
Gave the vanilla scugs and rivulet some lizor skins 
Watcher should prob be white liz and monk should prob be orange but oh well
Hmm what would the dp scugs be
i somehow misread "silly" as "chilly" lol

Okay made arti a cyan and saint a strawberry, gourm can be caramel ig. Idk what spear should be
nooooo
i fell asleep
Lol nw
but i would have played-
We can play smth tonight if u want?
yeah sure
Pssst, hey, you should submit that run 
Its invalid cause i forgot to turn checkpointer off
Also shortest real run (not expedition runs) would be Riv Moon% at ~6:45, I think Surv Moon is a little over ten minutes (?)

Would highly recommend just submitting a valid run, even if it’s scuffed and “bad”
Yeah thats what im trying to do, just keep dying 
I can def get around 1h 30 i think
If i dont die
Very excited to see you submit a run 

thats fake
birdwatching all perks is shorter
oh
you meant non exp
my bad
lol even the shortest runs are more than 5 minutes
Can’t wait to speedrun expeditions, I wanted to speedrun guiding light forever but I couldn’t on console bc karma caching in expedition is broken
cant believe you would become a sp*edrunner
I’ve always wanted to, just console made it difficult
Couldn’t do deer glitch so couldn’t do pilg runs like I wanted to
Then I wanted to do expeditions but more bugs as mentioned
Tried some story runs but eh wasn’t interested
Might do oe% at some point ig
?
Oe% with who
Surv or monk
So basically you want to do remembrance again 
Remembrance was oe% propaganda 
It was all your plan
Mm maybe december
Rah got a run all the way to verdant, like an hour in, then died to kelp of all things

🥹
just use ripplespace
How deep is verdant into the run
chiki is up to the 1st a
50min to an hour ish
I’ve only gotten there like twice
In new route it’s earlier
Haven’t gotten there yet so idk time
i hope yuou get to finish a run soon

we need the rooms
There's all of 2 so far, check my modded fp thread
Just had a fairly good run…I got all echoes but signal but I died like 8 times in fetid and fractured then died twice closing portals which set me back 20 minutes so i gave up on it, was almost 2hr lol
Portal rng was not kind
Think I need to practice the later echoes
Kind of
I did die in sunbaked/aether/torrid over and over for 2 hours before that run

Those stupid golden scavs are so annoying
Even if I have neutral rep w normal scavs they insta kill me, and can see through invis
Too many in torrid
And since i spend a while there its not worth
Ive started paying the aether toll and trading a few spears there for a tiny bit more rep
Has helped a bit but not against the golden ones
If they show up i either wait them out and lose like a minute or two or run dies
do they really just not care about rep
Idk, seems it
I remember they killed me a lot when i was pearl hunting
Every time i passed thru daemon to terrace there would be one camping and would kill me
And im pretty sure i had chieftain on that save
Yeah, started having to shelter in terrace and karma cache to max just to get past them each time lol
and they even have a shield so you dont instakill them
Yeah
I dont get their mechanics at all tbh
Even elite scavs dont just ignore rep...
Rep is the whole thing that makes scavs balanced lol
Else every playthru would be like arti
I felt like scavs were really trigger happy with me even after I have traded with them 
Like all kinds of them
well the wiki says they work normally
so wiki is wrong or they feel provoked by something
They defintely dont work normally
If theres a group of scavs and I have normal rep
I can walk past the normal ones no issue, they dont raise spears or anything
But if theres a golden one there it snipes me from across the room
i mean
wiki could be wrong, watcher is kinda recent still
better to check this with proper testing
(or look at rainworld code but no thanks im not doing that)
Ill get a clip of a golden one insta murdering me on my chieftain save later
if this question still exists later ill do a quick test
Sure

Peak emote 🥹
Gleetings
I love it
Ill be home in like...an hour and a half if u wanna play bingo later
i will go have dinner with my family today 
ill be back early but not at the usual hour
No worries, enjoy 
ill be eating good at least 
Hm did a test run w keepthatawayfromme so no creatures and still got a 1:28....how are ppl getting 1:12s 
I did lose maybe 4 mins bc i wanted to test the portal rng if i sheltered near the end for safety but still
Maybe torrid route isn’t as good
well sometimes you just get better runs out of nowhere while doing things like this
maybe when you acually do it you get like 1:20
you always think you did it very well and the you get better out of nowhere
I guess…I don’t see how I can ever do a run faster than one w no creatures tho
Unless I learn some amazing new movement or smth
Like it wasn’t a perfect run but I lose so much time to creature rng
it can always get better even when you dont believe it
Mm
I’ll try the torrential route again tmmrw
The current wr uses a slightly different one where they warp like 6 times and get spires echo first
So I’ll try that
how much time is it for top 3
mmm
eijump.
You really like telling people to eijump
I can eijump
Not using it in runs atm tho cause it can be risky
When i optimise it i will
oh yeah sure

🥹
🥹

No idea, it’s still in beta so some goals are impossible, that’s prob just one of them
Hmmm I’ve never tried watcher bingo
Mm, I wanna learn watcher regions so it’s a good way to do that ig
its gonna be interesting to say the least
i was studying and doing this weeks homework, im almost done
Sure!

Lol nw

Okay so you need these two mods
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3547197402
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3466127398
Ya
Make sure u disable normal bingo mode or u get impossible goals
Also passages and bring stuff to merchant goals are broken atm
But everything else should work fine
Hm
ig ill just login steam browser
alr done, just need a couple restarts to apply the mods

I have msc on as well, idk if you need it tho
Probably
MSC is needed due to the way some goals work/are tracked 
Mentioning bingo makes them appear 
are you guys lurking or something
Yes
alr
I have a secret 6th bingo sense

What mode do you wanna do
mode?
Bingo/lockout/blackout
What’s the diff between lockout and blackout
I thought bingo was a line 
lockout is once you get a goal nobody else can
i think normal bingo is just, goals dont get locked
Ah gotcha
fine ill get rot ending and then eat 6 karma flowers
oh i need to learn these watcher names
this looks so alien to me after memorising all normal game
maybe uuuu @vagrant sedge heya
lets just do blackout and stop when we get tired tbh
that way we just do however many goals we want
im gonna put the map on my secondary monitor
Smart 
because if i just go by feel ill just enter salination suddenly
Evil region
🥹
Imagine doing watcher speedruns but every time you touch a barnacle the game crashes
That would be…
Something
watcher speedrun hard mode
Should we just start then?
dont we have different colors


helo
Oh!
ok lets see what happens lol
111?
Ya
You need these mods, but works same as other bingo
i has thems
wait are we playing with this mod too https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3549264647&searchtext=
What is that 🥹
WHAT IS THAT
oh deer..

u havent seen oh deer.. before??
NO

oh deer
Anyway I made a lobby you should be able to join
Make sure to disable regular bingo, it crashes else
remember to never enter salination 
oh its a different bingo mod ill get that
why do i have two 🥹
Yea
I have 4 for some reason
It is so awesome
wait do i need to also have regular bingo mod enabled
Also this
omg
i just tried to pin this for some reason
i was like "where is the pin button"
Important information 🥹
it is very very important
Also no dandelions
OH uh my friend wants me to felp them 🥹 sorry
🥹
Nw 
or maybe not he wants to play space engineers maybe
but id prefer to play watcher
how to join again
ok finally im in sorry for the waitlol
yes 
You need to hit ready 
Oh no I left sharpener disabled 
I can live without it
2 goals already
We are so good
wuh i start in badlands???
Oh btw I think we start on 6 ripple and can go up to max already
So if u get the echo you should have max
i remember in my first game when i reached this echo i didnt get past the locusts in the intended way
how do u get frogs off
If we lose salination you will know why
Gambling 🎲
Also entering ripple space works
Mac and cheese
First goal 🔥
I am on fetid 🥹
Maybe
I love eijumping in unnecessary spots now that I’m consistent with it
I’m right by unfortunate evolution but that seems slow
Oops died
Screw it I’ll bad warp
Eh that’s the goal, to learn the map

Oo rotten drainage system never been here
Oh god why are there a billion dropwigs
Dw this whole thing is jsut for fun, we are all very lost here
I’ve died 5 times already

whales do not exist
You have max ripple no?
yeah
Locusts can’t get ya in ripple space, and it lasts long enough for all those sections
impossible
Huh I just bad warped into decaying tunnels and got to the portal but now I’m in pillar grove not outer rim??
Odd
Got it
Nice
ill get this one

bruh
after such a long cycle i died to exhaustion
Noo I accidentally clicked my passage
I think it’s broken anyway but
Annoying
Oh no it works just no region art yet
Okay I quit out, hopefully thst didn’t use
I just
Lol
I got the pearl
And threw it away
But it still counts

It sent it to the eternal void
How will I know about the awesome deals 
Did you go to salination 🥹
I entered daemon
Ate karma flowers there
And went to outer rim
Why didn’t it update on my screen tho
Wow this strawberry is so dumb, it licked the noot out of my hand and flung it and itself into the void
Do you see it?
It updated for me yeah
I have
Why are strawberries so stupid it did it again
Ok it actually updated now
Btw 187 points as watcher is evil
Ah, I can get slime mold here
just eijumped this 
oh i entered salination
🥹
Yeah do not enter goals are evil on watcher
Try dying or something
DEMONS!!!!!!!!!
Oh come on I tamed a strawberry and it flung itself into the void
These are even dumber than cyans wow
Oh I reset..

Good to know 
One time I tamed a green for a goal
Then killed it for dragons later goal
Dragonslayer
Nice
@vagrant sedge quit and enter again
what its not showing u- oh exit and rejoin? /i can do that????
woah
i had to leave and reenter myuself
Yeah might be, sorry
love to see that cycle 2 shattered terrace
You are trapped in
Oh no I lineaged the kelp gauntlet
Why are strawberries so greedy
I’ve fed this guy 4 noots and it’s still not tamed
Oh I’ve been taming 3 different ones that’s why
I have an army
It keeps eating my lizards
random shoutout to this guy who reached industrial for the first time ever only ot be immediately chomped by a vulture #1438896198567329822 message
This poor strawberry is too weak to carry a dropwig up the pole so it keeps getting halfway, falling, the dropwig attacks it, it then grabs the dropwig and does it all over again
Rusted wrecks is so big I have no idea where I am looking at the map
Found myself
After 4 minutes
hooray for readable score screen
What
imagine being on karma 4 while being on ripple 9
What 🥹
dont enter WAUA_TOYS
I think it might be bugged again, I’m going to quit and rejoin so u guys might have to as well
oh god your lobby doesnt show up
Uh oh
Why did you even 🥹
Good to know ig 
We can start another one if u want, my goals aren’t updating
Maybe just a 3x3 board or smth
That alr?
Omg a dropwig just made me jump off my chair
That’s the first time a dropwig actually scares me
You good to start a diff smaller game como? Tankium cant rejoin
hey guys do you think my game wants me to befriend a blizard lizard
Taming a blizzard would be hard
I’ll get a smaller board
Mines bugged anyway, I tamed the strawberry and it didn’t update
I think it wants
Just maybe tho
oh god
yeah lets do that one
o7 watcher bingo where i did the smartest thing ive ever done
Oh
before i go though i leave you with this cursed board
I’ll end it there for now then, I can play again tmmrw if either of you wanna tho
That looks so weird 🥹
Never really seen a yeek still
They look more like mice than frogs
im yeeking out
yeah it would be
in my first game i tried going everywhere out of the few initial regions
i went to every karma gate i knew
Mm shaded was the last vanilla echo i knew abt
First found it in like...
I wanna say rivulet?
hes so close to like the most commonly used shaded rooms and yet no on e knows he exists
I think i just didnt notice the echo effect
Cause its so dark and theres not many creatures there to stun
Shaded's the only echo to be in an "Act 2" region
Hmm idk abt that, sky islands and sub ones are also out of the way
I guess people first discover echoes at all via the obligate wall echo and afterward get their attention piqued whenever seeing flashes
Sky islands and sub are Act 3 
I first saw tbe flashes in chimney and it terrified me so i left the region and got lost in shoreline and garbage wastes for 10 hours
Am using a rough metric of the "intended route" to cut the game in thirds
getting lost in shoreline is an achievement
I was trying to find moon but iggy sucked at directions
I literally epxlored the entire reigon
Every single room
But the path right to moon
what about WAUA_TOYS
Cause I thought it was just like a wall, not actually a room
I even went to sub
But went back thru pretty quick
subblebubbleterranean
It's actually real easy to get lost in shoreline
80% of its rooms are an alien maze 
We're too used to the neat direct paths we take to moon or shaded
Yeah i kept getting tripped up by the constant switching between upper and lower shoreline
You dodge so much of the region by doing like, a hunter run with the quick shot like 10 rooms long from shaded to moon to sub 
Found both the pearls tho, that was nice
Yeah 
I never got to have the wonderful blind vanilla experience 
A shame, i still remember it very fondly, played that first monk campaign for 100 smth hours
Would watch full playthroughs on youtube several years before l got my own laptop to buy it on
Downpour wasn't blind either
First decent blind experience was watcher 1.5 and l enjoyed that very much 
I beat monk then was so invested i immediately went to look at lore and spoiled myself for all of downpour by watching skurrys playthroughs 
Taught me a lesson tho and i stayed blind for watcher, which was very worth
Watcher 1.0 l got exposure to story spoilers fully but l got a fresh enough experience actually playing in the world
I think i like watcher more than downpour even, it has some issues but its so peak
Knew all the regions by name and by their general appearance, but got the pleasure of not knowing the layout, navigation, or all the rooms, or the connections, and that was cool
I got many pleasant surprises by simple art and terrain
Mm that was me for the first half of monk, id watched a playthrough but they hadnt gotten past like chimney yet so i kinda knew things but also didnt know shit
Was very interesting
Did the same with hollow knight actually
Sorta made up a map of it in my head and it was so weird to actually play it
i guess i was pretty lucky in this area. i was told to not eat moons neurons but thats like.. it tbh, lol
well i did have a map in my first vanilla game
I see a written text saying WATCHER HAS THIS THINGY and l preconceive this mental image and then the real thing catches me offguard
i managed to guess the ending after reading a bunch of lore pearls too
I got a hint from someone that was like "dont eat the five white things by the blue being" or something so for almost the whole game i thought there was some weird blue scug w five pearls, then when i went into five pebbles i was like holy shit this is it and then was so confused when i actually met pebs
I'll never get Stolen Enlightenment 
i got stolen enlightenment from a friend who used my pc to play rw on (with my permission ofc) and i watched them eat the neurons
Yeah that's so real, when you mistakenly stitch/assign different spoilers and get caught offguard that way
hey. technically having the achivement counts for passages lol
i guess ill get my screenshots ready then
There's always the humane way for stolen enlightenment 
Huh? Watcher becomes a worm? Okay. I glimpsed by accident that new long daemon room that looks like the void plunge if you squint. That must be where he ascends. And he must become that big blue rippleworm l saw in out of context screenshots. I've cracked the code surely l won't be surprised anymore
oh thats an interesting way to play, i shouldnt try it though
Oh l don't recommend getting spoilers if you can help it
it's always against my will
I think the only thing i got spoiled to was that there was a lot of rot
But thats literally it
And seeing rot blocking off like gw was still a major suprise
As was like the throne and gary and all that
We love gary ❤️
is this sufficient to submit for passages??? (downpour spoilers)
Yeah should be fine
because 47-43=4
ogey
what should i put down for difficulty because i never really went for it i just got it by coincidence
i put a 4 just because lol
Why did I get every single vulture in signal spires after me what is this rng 
There are 5
3 normal 2 kv…

"fuck this creature in particular"
🥹
how is the speedrunning going
Taking a few days break cause I got a bit burnt out
Successful day bingoing, did the blackout game from this morning (#downpour-server-challenges message) and this watcher lockout w yhsm and polarcat which I won (green) 
Lockout, which is get the most squares and you can only get them once, if someone else gets it it’s gone
Nice
Blackout was this morning
we played a 6 person big blackout board that mind controlled me to do offering again
Does anyone here know where to submit a glitch I found in The Watcher so it can be fixed?
This seemed like best place to ask
Rain World is a pretty complex game. Due to that, each major update tends to create new bugs that could be either super common or incredible specific and by extension hard to find. The first step for a bug to be fixed is that the developers learn about their existence, what caused it and ideally the steps needed to replicate it .
If you find what you believe to be a new bug, crash, graphic error or unintended behaviour please report it at Akupara Bug Portal: https://bugs.akuparagames.com/rain-world/bugs
Adding what you did before it happened, the Exception-log (specially if it caused a crash) and, if possible, a list of steps to replicate that error could make the process of finding the root cause of the issue a lot easier, so any extra details are always appreciated.
Use the link on there 
Btw Chiki
I tested the “disappointment” challenge and it basically does the usual speed run Strats on sunbaked Alley
I hate to say
I hate it so much
Doing that region fast is so awful so many things can and will go wrong with centis/lizards
It was like that for the challenge too
If I passed sunbaked I knew I would make it to salination at least
What is the chal?
You could try this idea it’s only lacking one tester more 
Disappointment- Without ripple 9 get to shattered terrace spinning top location from a starting portal location
(Basically one of the 3 post prologue spots)
Sunbaked - aether ridge - torrid desert- heat ducts - salination -shattered
Oh also forgot about the most important part
It has to be done in under 12 minutes igt
It was nice when I wasn’t death looping at sunbaked
You have to clear the route beforehand btw
Because if not echo dialogue will mess your time
Oh its not starting cycle
Just play in japanese 
I got ripple 5 for mine, not too bad of a prep
You could watch my run 
I mess up the sunbaked eijump
And the aether ridge skip second tried
But everything else is nice 
You can ctwc that btw wall pounce not required
Well those 10 secs could make it so you have to deal with creature rng later in the run
I definitely had more than 10 secs of time loss myself tho
My time was uuu 11:43
Honestly it could be reduced to 11:45 the requirement
Eh you dont want it too strict
I’m not sure about lower tho it’s nice having some leniency for rng
Nah 11:45 is not too strict
Below 11:35 it is
I don’t like it to be extremely strict but I basically got it on my first completed run
fun fact this is a lie
you can bring in all 4 vanilla pearls to the spinning top final room
so they warp with you to watcher regions
Spreading misinformation in my thread smh
i didnt know it back then ok
Ahh lmao
thats why its so funny
ce
