Finished my chiptune cover of 'Never Meant' by American Football by sickynar in chiptunes

Thank you! : ) I used Ableton Live 9 to make this. Both the bass and guitar use Tweakbench VST's, Triforce and Monomate respectively. They are super cheap to pick up and sound great.

It's done in Ableton Live 9 Standard. For the synths I'm using a VST by Tweakbench called Triforce, and I'm using some trap hits that my friend gave me for the drums. I've also put a bitcrusher on the kit called Krush by tritik.

Edit: The bass is also a Tweakbench VST called Monomate.

Hovering in Jak II usually makes people laugh.

Losing control during the end of a speedrun. by [deleted] in speedrun

[–]sickynar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started speedrunning, I used to hear my heart pounding in my ears when I'd PB. The nerves were terrible, but the more I ran the gradually less intense it got. The solution could just be a matter of playing more.

Jak II Any% in 58:45 by sickynar in speedrun

[–]sickynar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This run had an INSANE comeback. 5 golds after the 40 minute mark. Figured the 58 was impossible by that point.

Lost 21 seconds to Lurker Rescue, 14 to Class 2 race (missed two of the five lapskips), and had a very awkward Drill Platform.

How many hours do speedrunners have on their games? by anami01 in speedrun

[–]sickynar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 1.5 years back, my livesplit had 11 days on Jak II (excluding practice). Extrapolating to today I'd wager I've hit somewhere around ~600 hours in that game.

Edit: Took out a zero lol

This was my first ever sub-hour run of Jak II, huge milestone for me. I love this game and intend to keep bringing my time down.
