Thanks. I'll be here all week.

The fuck is N?

HOW DID I START LEVEL 64 WITH 735 ON THE CLOCK AND END UP WITH 377 D:<<<<<<<<<<

*kills his keyboard*

Anyway, M&R you should clean the scoreboard so that each person's name only appears once. Thanks.

Can I change the controls? I'm used to using my left hand for directions and my right hand for jumping, and this is really disorienting.

I'm liking the new gold system, hating the controls.

also, I have to do 64 levels straight? fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Also, holy fuck I died from time for the first time ever and it made me restart? fuck I was at level 40.

It's not called a 'challenge' for nothing.

I started with ~450 and ended up with 0.

Going to go have a good cry now.

Does anyone else feel that the new gold system is fucking perfect for this sort of competition? Every instance is so much more tense.

Yeah. It's amazing. Never thought I'd get an adrenaline rush from N, but here I am.

Damn, I even predicted EMG would get 1000 seconds, and so far he is only 10 seconds off.

I got a highscore on harder, but it was lower than the three that are there so far. It didn't let me post. Confused and saddened.

Nice. These are better than the 1.4 builtin levels. Also got a nice spot on Harder. :o

Oh. My.

Please let me jump with up. ;_;

yeah, happened to me on hardest; it's imperative that you fully load the highscores before starting a game, otherwise it won't let you submit your score...

So I've actually played it now. The challenge mechanic with the gold and the time and stuff is pretty tremendous.

Thank you Mare and Raigan.

Some observations after playing through-

The ninja loses more momentum when changing from flat to slanted tiles. lvl 16 on hardest makes this really apparent.

Related to that, the ninja feels "stickier" to me. Really noticeable when tipping over an edge. This is probably just the minor changes to tile collision and physics.

Stutter stepping on slanted tiles is gone.

The biggest improvement to me - Drones don't lose time to each other. I think this might also mean that the firing delay on other enemies will be more predictable on maps with several enemies.

I wonder if they might be considering making the episode highscoring work like this contest. It makes it way more fun and intense to play several maps in a row.

Can't understand how you people walljump like this.

except for the suicide, the keys were actually like i usually play so cool.

I love everything and all and everything but man, would I love it more if it weren't so damn laggy on windows 7 :<

Method 1:

Verified as effective for NReality and N 2.0 BETA on my cousin's computer running Windows 7.

Method 2: (I haven't tested in NReality or 2.0, but apparently it works for NReality, so this might be a good plan B.
1.) Go to Start => Control Panel => Sound.
2.) On the Playback tab, right-click your speakers on the list there and select "Properties".
3.) Depending on your speaker setup and your version of Vista, there should be a tab there called "Effects" or "Enhancements" or some such. Check the box marked "Disable System Effects" or "Disable All Enhancements" or whatever.
4.) Play N lag-free!

Good luck!

I myself don't understand how people walljump with anything else.
