Weighted Options

Weighted options allow you to choose how likely a particular option's value is to be used in game generation. The higher a value is weighted, the more likely the option will be chosen. Think of them like entries in a raffle.

Choose the options you would like to play with! You may generate a single-player game from this page, or download an options file you can use to participate in a multiworld.

Trick Difficulty

Choose which tricks, if any, can be logically expected. - **None**: Assumes vanilla progression through levels. - **Basic**: Some minor unintended strategies may be required. - **Pro**: More advanced speedrunning strategies like wallruns, SR40/SR50 straferunning, and exploiting the Z axis may be required. - **Extreme**: If it's feasible in real time, it's in logic. Includes tricks that require enabling vertical mouse movement, tricks that punish failure with death, or out-of-bounds movement.

Allow Death Logic

Allow or disallow death logic locations and tricks. Some locations can only be attempted once, and can become unreachable if the player fails to get them. Once this has happened, the player must die or otherwise reset the level to attempt to reach the location again. If death logic is disabled, these locations will never contain any progression items. On higher trick difficulty settings, this setting may also enable some tricks that put the player in a position where they are stuck and must die/reset the map afterwards.

Reset Level on Death

If enabled, when the player dies, the level is reset, respawning all pickups and monsters. Turning this setting off is considered easy mode. Good for new players that don't know the levels well. Note that regardless of this setting, your inventory and checks made are never lost on death.

Death Link

Energy Link

Enables using the server's EnergyLink pool to obtain powerups. When enabled, items sent to you that would have no mechanical effect are instead converted into energy. You can then spend that energy at any later time to refill your ammo or give yourself powerups. Optionally, you can set this option to an arbitrary string. This will restict your EnergyLink pool to only other players that use the same string.
Custom values are also allowed for this option. To create one, enter it into the input box below.
