Learning

Low% is mostly known as a challenge run. In most cases, runners would be interested in this category after they acquired enough practical understanding of this game.

  • Make savefiles before each part that you probably have issues with. You can backup and copy the savefiles ( Generally in <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\631510\remote\ ) into a seperate folder.
  • Make splits. Download a program like Livesplit and setup your splits. It does not matter how bad they are in your first run. Also check out this tutorial on how to set it up.

Once you have completed your first run and made savefiles practice the parts you are least confident with then try another run. When you get more confident you should stop getting safety routes and start tighten your currency.
