A small indie game, but a real speedrunning gem: A Short Hike. The most addicted I've ever been to learning about a speedrun, finishing an entire mountain climb in under 3 minutes! Let me show you why this game is so fun and satisfying.

    Simple games are often some of the most fun. It's why I really like the game 'The isle' there are complicated things you can do but you aren't forced into doing them the whole experience is just survival basics, and as you learn you survive longer and better.

    This channel feels much smoother with the editing than the main channel, as there are many more opportunities to insert edits, and I simply love it

    One of my fave games ever. A perfect little gem IMO.
  • @b_g_kells
    So I'm pretty new to gaming. When I first played this, I made it to the top of the mountain on 2 feathers THEN I found out there was a plot and like 20 feathers to collect. This is so vindicating lol

    Well, just downloaded the game, played for about an hour, then started new games under another profile. Did a 14 minute speed run, two hours later, did a 6:20 run.
