COMMUNITY HIGHLIGHTS
We also have some very good new to share! The amazing speedrunning community of Astalon did a tremendous job at running the game, finding routes and doing friendly competitions with one another, and as a result to their hard work, @strizer86 did a great, very suspenseful live run of the game during AGDQ 2022 in January! Congratulations to him, to Colt for managing Astalon's speedrunning community and for his awesome work as a commentator during the run! And thank you to the whole speedrunning community, we couldn't be more proud!
