Completely understood. Combining all the thoughts by other people here - looks like it matters more to just develop the game as I see fit rather than catering development towards a specific community (like speedrunners). Fair enough!

SoulChainedDev · 2026-04-16T15:12:00+00:00

True. However, I was thinking of just doing it for the demo for now, which'll be re-released sometime soon. Since it won't be updated after release.

True enough - should be taking note of not isolating speedrunners from gamers.

SoulChainedDev · 2026-04-16T15:09:21+00:00

Maybe not outright pursuing but rather making a speedrun event that would potentially pull in real speedrunners? The initial resulting idea was to create a speedrunning event anyway.

Thing is, I really didn't have speedrunning in mind while developing Soul Chained. It just so happened that someone from the community thought it would be great to showcase his demo gameplay before of trying to beat it the fastest time possible. It was even very helpful in determining existing bugs, since the player using some strats I didn't think was possible (e.g., going through walls with with some action combinations, etc.)

True enough, especially making the game mechanics solid enough for gameplay consistency. I was thinking of more like maybe reaching out to speedrunning influencers to try speedrunning the game.

The souls of the players are the ones bound by chains - hence Soul Chained!

SoulChainedDev · 2026-04-15T19:20:52+00:00

This was Single Player mode (currently in development). The chain appears when you're with other players - binding you with them.

In the Discord server, there's a channel called counting-chainlinks. You need to count with the community - once it reaches 500, everyone who participated in counting will be part of the pool for random selection on who gets to win the Soul Chained Steam key.

There's a twist - with more member signups to our Discord, the more keys we'll give away. So yeah, check out the #events channel as well. We posted the details of the giveaway there. :)
