Some of the Shortest Speedruns EVER

Apr 18, 2024
So have you

ever

watched a fast race and walked away? That's too long. I thought it was supposed to be a fast race. I don't have time to watch or play this game for an hour. Hell, I don't even have 10 minutes. Well, no. Don't worry, I've got the cure just for you between snooping around and looking at my own speedrun.com profile. I've compiled

some

of the shorter

speedruns

before we dive right into listing

some

runs, how do you define short to some people? an hour long could be considered short, while others who normally dabble in shorter games may think your run is short if it is less than 5 minutes.

For the sake of today, I set a pretty simple guideline for a short sprint race: the world record must be under 2 minutes and most races here today are much shorter than two minutes, but there are a couple of games. which I want to discuss today that are closer to that, so fight me in the comments about what exactly short means, this is just what I'm setting up. For today, I think it's best to start from the longest run on the list and work your way down to the

shortest

. Top of my list is a Game Boy Advance title based on the 2003 movie Elf, yes that's a real thing.

More Interesting Facts About,

some of the shortest speedruns ever...

While I bet the entire game is a masterpiece that can n

ever

be surpassed, that's not what I want to talk about, there are also three mini-games included and one of them, according to Santa, has a speed race category with a record of only one. minute and eight seconds, so what exactly do you do for one minute? Well, there are six toys on the left and Santa asks you to put certain toys in his bag in a specific order. That's it, someone called this a game. This is a one minute quick click race. The elements on the screen as quickly as possible are quite disappointing, but don't worry, I promise these races will improve if you stay on the Game Boy Advance.

Let's move on to Candyland. Shots on stairs and memory. Say five times in a row you want to know what it is. within this game, uh, candyland shoot the stairs and memory, someone decided that this game was the next most popular speed race and separated the categories for each game. The busiest game over the years has been ladder shooting as well as the physical game of ladder shooting. You roll a die and your goal is to be the first to reach the top of the board. Some spaces you land on will advance you and others will ruin you.

In this case, the game allows you to go among other players. which you can control or just go against the computer players for the sake of speed racing, the racers go against the computer player and pretty much just spam the a button and pray that the dice rolls are lucky enough to take you quickly to the top now that the game only had a few racers for several years, but something would change on October 6, 2020. Now I've done my fair share of

speedruns

over the years and every now and then I like to start a new trend of fast racing.
This time I was looking at Gameboy. advanced catalog and decided on shooting and ladders, I caught the attention of some speedrun friends and got to the point where we even did races of this game to try to reduce the time and that, very weak, the leaderboard would double in size and Logic destroyed the old record by more than a second. He got a time of just under a minute. Now the leaderboard says exactly one minute because the game's only moderator supposedly retimed the race to just over a minute, but between Logic and Eye we have both. we retimed it to be just a 59 second run, we need to start an outrage over this, this is ridiculous, let's start a trend on the comments hashtag, fix the subminute, oh yeah, a couple of other games have even shorter categories, but not those games.
I don't have shoots or ladders, so they don't really matter. Now let's move on to the Internet side. If you grew up with the early 2000s Internet at your fingertips, you probably explored new ground at least once. Do not lie to yourself. was on it constantly, it was part of my childhood, let's look at a new basic outline from 2005 titled the legend of zelda, lampshade with no real meaning, it's a typical fan game that was a dime a dozen around this time and Honestly, I think some of these are quite charming in their own strange way, like other flash games, this game is quite short, the 80 flawless category lasts around three minutes, but the world record for any percentage is only 37 seconds. , which is a big difference when you enter Hyrule, you can just drop the link. on the right side of the screen and because of how poorly programmed most flash games of this era were, the collision doesn't seem to exist when off the side of the screen, this allows you to walk straight to the end of the game and beat. in record time if you want to do an easy and silly speedrun, I recommend it.
My time on this is the first on what I would consider a joke speedrun. I really hate that my video seems to have been lost in time, oh yeah, any percentage too. It currently has a whopping 69 runners, please laugh. I know I mentioned this game not too long ago in a previous video which, by the way, you should check out if you haven't already, but come on, how can I not? Hong Kong 97, one of the most questionable. unlicensed games on a nintendo console to date you have corpses of chinese political leaders and coke assuming you can survive the game loops forever speedrun is about completing a loop as quickly as possible and time ends when You give the final blow to the cut boss of former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping, you can get everything you want from this family fun, a huge success in just 35 seconds, continuing the trend of the games I have already talked about, let's quickly talk about eminem's car racing, watch out for mario kart wii.
We have the top Wii racing title on the rise as this game has been vigorously tested, obviously on one of the house tracks there is a specific wall where if you lean your cart near it the game instantly crashes until the day Today, nothing is clear. rhyme or reason why this happens and it became such a fascination within the small community that crashing the game became its own speedrun category and I currently hold the record for crashing the game in just 28 seconds, speaking of me, what? have you been enjoying this video? If so make sure to subscribe and like the video.
I also recently opened up memberships on YouTube, which gives you more behind-the-scenes content and a shout-out in the videos, so if you want to support the channel while getting extra perks, now is your lucky day anyway. Do you want to know which is one of the few games that exist in each system monopoly? Have you seen such a big list of platforms before? There's probably even a way to make this game work with a microwave and while I figure out how to do it. We can see speed races on multiple different console generations. Every version of the game seems to have a category of any percentage that requires you to finish a game as quickly as possible.
The record varies greatly between platforms, but these are some of the

shortest

NES, at 46 seconds. ds at 35 seconds ios at 28 seconds super nintendo at 25 seconds and the shortest is the sega genesis version at 20 seconds congratulations, I guess sega finally won the console war after all do you like programs games? you like video games? do you like videos? games that are game shows I never really understood the market for these games. I understand that a lot of people like to watch game shows, but is it really the same to play a watered-down virtual version by yourself? Maybe it's just me but it's kind of like It makes me feel sad anyway, do you like the deal or not, it's better because it was released on Game Boy Advance DS Wii PC and even as a separate plug and play which is not Hallie Mandel, what am I looking at, please stop this monopoly-like thing? people have speedrunned many of the different versions, each platform has its own percentage category that requires finishing a game as quickly as possible, just like Monopoly, let's quickly reveal some of the fastest Game Boy Advance times in 1 minute and 36 seconds. and plays 55 seconds on PC, 21 seconds and the fastest system is Wii at only 19 seconds, going back to another title I briefly talked about before.
Zuul is a 90s platform game that was ported to multiple systems. I want to talk specifically about Sega. master version of the system because it is incredibly broken during multiple casual playthroughs, people have accidentally found ways to skip to the credits, it was finally discovered that you can go straight to the credits or right when you start the game, all you have to do is position zuul on this edge to make them stagger and after that if you press up the credits work instantly, the record is currently a two way tie, with under 10 seconds at 9.84, most of the time in this race is spent just Starting off the awesome game, getting back to flash games, we have Sonic xs, a time and score based single level platformer that was actually published by four kicks to promote the Sonic x anime series currently airing on that moment.
This is so short, in fact, that the record is flawless. It's only 15 seconds, this short run is made even shorter with a bug that allows you to jump infinitely in the air using the ring attack used to launch enemies. You can use it in the air to get another jump. This breaks both the game and the record. using it lasts less than 9 seconds and goes up to 8.75 if you're not sick of the Game Boy trailer, I still have a few more titles for the system, the first is sudoku fever where you save the chocolate factory, stop the rotten wait, I think Amazon put it up. wrong description here ok it's sudoku you've heard about it right there are speed races to complete four different difficulties classic eight mini and junior junior has the smallest board of the group it's only four by four and for the speed race.
The registration of this watch is 6.6666, have you heard of the hairnet? It's practically a successful clone of Bubble Bobble and Puzzle Bubble. Match three or more identical hairnets to make them disappear. You advance once the board is completely clear, like in other games today. Speedrun. The leaderboard of this game is separated by several difficulties, including some of the hardest difficulties, such as hard and evil, which present a pretty decent challenge and a unique fast race, but in terms of duration, the shortest race is the child mode, the record is 4.52 seconds. It involves shooting a few snoots in a row and getting lucky with what you get.
Today I have one more Game Boy Advance game and it's Scooby-Doo and Cyber ​​Chase. This is a platform game based on the movie released at the same time as the The game itself is quite short, there is also a password screen and one of the passwords takes you to the end of the game. The record for this was originally 4 seconds, but in late 2020 jpin realized that if you enter the password in the title. screen and restart the game the password will remain in memory this allows you to simply start the game enter the password screen and you will be instantly in the game the record is now tied several times being only two seconds click draw quick draw I don't know How They Want You to Say It is an online game created by Google that has players draw a specific word and, using a self-learning AI, tries to guess what the players draw.
Each game you play has six rounds but if you pay attention there is a jump button in the top right corner you can skip to the last round there is a speed run category that does all six rounds which surprisingly only takes 18 seconds but let's talk about skip the record, jumping to the last round is 7 seconds, but there is actually something even beyond this, between 2016 and 2018 there was a bug that allowed you to skip each round and instantly access the results screen. Unfortunately this was fixed and the leaderboard had to be split entirely. I'm glad Google only publishes important posts. updates to their products, I'm right now that we're getting into some pretty ridiculous territory the second brand minesweeper, you know it, your grandma knows it, heck even your dog probably knows it, probably the most notable version of the minesweeper has been the version that was included with several versions of Windows, you get a rectangular board that contains hidden mines and your goal is to clear the entire board without touching a single mine.
It's pretty simple. This game has been recreated many, many, many times over the years, usually with varying difficulties. Many people have done multiple sprints to overcome beginner difficulty, which in multiple versions can be done in asecond and sometimes even faster than that, sometimes all it takes to speed up the race is clicking random buttons until things happen and continue with the one second races I have. three games I would label under the category fake credits, warps, these runs immediately go to the credits, but instead of some crazy setup or glitch to do it, you can just click a button to see the credits.
I have no idea why, but it seems like all the lower budget Wii and DS games of this era had a credits button accessible from the title screen menu. There may very well be more races in the same category, but two games I found in speedrun categories like this are action girl racing on wii and b- movie game on ds you can start the game, click credits and that's it. , one second, anyone with at least one brain cell can get the b-movie record because it doesn't include milliseconds, on the other hand, action girl racing actually includes milliseconds.
I tried this game for an hour straight and my best shot was two frames off the record. I spend too much time on these things. There is another game, a distant matter, which is an Italian derivative of deal or no deal, apparently exists. There were enough fans of this localized game show that one executive thought there was a market for this on the DS. The full game is pretty short on its own, but there's also a one-second speed run that quickly enters and completes all the text in the initial tutorial and everyone is Why do I play video games just to read text?
If you thought that wasn't ridiculous enough, I still have some more ridiculous runs that last less than a second. Yes, you heard me. Do you remember Agario when he still existed? It was very popular. a web browser game in 2015 and everyone was playing it and talking about it practically 24/7. I mean, I remember kids at school playing this during class and I mean, why was everyone playing it right? If you think about it, it was simple and it was addictive, you are a ball and your goal is to gain as much mass as possible. You can gain mass by eating agar pieces and other players who are smaller than you.
There really isn't a proper ending to this game, but speedrunners are still found. ways to create categories from this, there are 5 categories, each of which requires you to achieve certain objectives in the game, die 10 times, reach 1,000 mass, reach 10,000 mass, as well as get the 10th and the first place on the leaderboard in the game, four of these records. They are less than a second long for 10th and the first place players were lucky to enter a small enough server where they were already on the board at the time they entered. The record for first place is 880 milliseconds, while 10th place is only 333 milliseconds.
The times get even crazier than that, although with the 1000 mass and 10,000 mass categories, getting records requires you to be very lucky with where you spawn the 1000 mass record is only 51 milliseconds due to it appearing next to a really big player who was throwing up a lot. of small candles on the map, just watch this spawn when it's paused, how much luckier can you get? Can you even call this a sprint at this point? Another thing you probably never realized was that there was a fast race for the perplexed, not familiar, the perplexed is. A ball in a maze that is contained within a sphere, players have to guide the ball through the puzzles by rotating the spear in different directions.
Many versions have been released over time and there have been some pretty impressive runs trying to complete this game over the years. as quickly as possible, but there is something more ridiculous than just trying to complete it quickly, since this is a physical game, there is really nothing stopping you from taking the ball where you want and because of this people have been able to make it to the end . The end of these puzzles in a split second, all it takes is a specific jerk in the right direction and boom, the ball is at the end.
Some of the most ridiculous moments include the rookie stump at 300 milliseconds, the epic stump at 267 milliseconds, the original stumps at 183 milliseconds, and the world's smallest stumps that take just 133 milliseconds. The planned version of these executions have varied between 30 seconds and two and a half minutes, so I'd say it's pretty complicated if you ever want to compete shaking an object then it's your lucky day, why play a game when you can just shake it? People run fast in a wide variety of games and within that variety there are also a variety of moments. Some people like to play.
The amount of time it takes me to say a word. Others like to play a game that lasts until the death of the universe, who am I to judge? I've done a little of both. The only thing that really matters at the end of the day is that you have fun doing it. That's cool, who cares, play however you want.
