#25: Constructive Cynicism: The World of TAS (Tool-Assisted Speedruns‪)‬ No-Hit Podcast

ConstructiveCynicism (@constructivecynicism on YouTube & Twitch, and @cynic_SR on Twitter) is the creator of the first Hollow Knight Any% TAS (Tool-Assisted Speedrun), or a speedrun done by a computer, completing the game in under 29 minutes. As well as being a WR level speedrunner in the Low% and All Whispering Roots categories in HK and in the game Rain World.  

In this conversation we go through: 

Foundation on what a TAS is 

How Hollow Knight Mob & Boss RNG works/ is calculated 

Software used and time taken to make 

CC's Hollow Knight speedruns & Rain World 

and much, much more...  

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!
