    Runners and Commentators

    If you’re a runner or commentator of one of the above games in vanilla or rando and would like to showcase a run of the game’s self-randomizing mod in this pilot series, see below.

    1. The showcase series is currently being planned for a monthly schedule of one to two games per month. The start date is still being determined but will be announced when known. Update: series kicked off April 5.
    2. For example showcase runs, see FFR’s YouTube channel here.
    3. One or two show hosts may be present during your run, and there may be introductory and/or closing segments and/or some interaction during the run. This depends on host availability so is by no means guaranteed.
    4. Both speedruns and challenge runs are acceptable. For other types of runs, speak with clymax for an exception to be granted.
    5. Live audio commentary in English by you or by a guest is required. Update: an exception can be made to accept prerecorded audio commentary to improve commentary quality.
    6. Live play is optional; gameplay can be prerecorded.
    7. Face cam is optional.
    8. Full runs are requested.
    9. As a guideline, previous showcases have often had runs ranging from 1.5-2 hours. But other run lengths can be acceptable as long as audio commentary keeps pace with the run.
    10. Runners and commentators who are interested, please reach out to us via the FFR or FFVC Discords. Contact clymax if you have any questions.
