Contest #3: Best time in Lara Croft: Guardian of Light Level 1.
Since the first level is the only one available in the demo, we'll take that one for the contest. Also: note that you dont need to have the best highscore, just the best time! The best time wins, then randomly another winner from all the other entries.
Please dont copy any images from the internet
- Contest runs until the next batch of daily deals goes up, so tomorrow 7pm GMT+2.
- Please screenshot the endscreen after a level, not a highscore table somewhere
- You can participate in this contest even with the demo or PS360 versions.
- Dont use any upgrades beyond the first level! Otherwise the demo players wont have any chance to compete.
1 winner will be chosen randomly from all submissions, the other winner is the one with the best time.
Cheap and great game! Buy it if you like the demo!
Ok, got a decent time, but had a hard time with the keyboard controls

Not my entry, did not read the rules.
This isn't the newest version of my 100% self-made home, but it is the newest version I had on my screen shots. Below I have a glowing mushroom farm. On the right is a flower/mushroom farm, but apparently just harvested so it looks a bit plain. I should go back and finish it.
If anyone is interested, here are some old versions
Oldest version
Added some extra rooms
Chandeliers and my Tomb
Now in HD
Stupid goblins invaded while I was working in my basement

I assume this is not a home made since the contest started? Sort of the qualification for submission, since people that just picked it up wont have a chance in the voting otherwise. Really nice home, though! But I would love if you could submit a new home that you did now

I maybe could do a little better, but with mouse and keyboard and my two left hands I doubt it. Great game though

Thanks xelios, you should enter the Contest just for fun. You still have some time until we end it!
EDIT: Also if anyone post a better/faster time in Contest #3 GoL please post "UPDATE" so it is easier for me to edit your times for later. Thanks in advance fellow GAFfers.

All contests could have a winner for the "best" entry and a random entry.
Why Would You Do That?- Record a new video of yourself taking ridiculous, unnecessary risks in a game, upload it to Youtube and link it to your Steam account. Entry must include a link to the video from your Steam Community Profile and have an upload date matching the contest time period.
Take One for the Team - Find the absolute worst game on your games list, or the worst-looking one on the store that has a demo, play it for at least 30 minutes, and post a grammatically correct single-sentence review for the game in this topic. Prove that you actually played the game for at least a half hour by taking two screen shots and linking your Recently Played Games page on your Steam community profile.
Wait, You Were Faking It? - Add a non-Steam game to your library, and make it look like it belongs by giving it a custom grid icon for grid view. You don't have to create it; you can steal one from the thread I'm about to link, or anywhere else online. Details and examples in the NeoGAF Custom Grid Icon thread. To enter, post a screen capture of your installed games list in grid view mode and let us know which game you're entering with.
Chillin' Out, Maxin', Relaxin' All Cool - It's simple. Jump into any game or demo where you can see your character in the third person. Now do nothing, and do it really hard. Post a video or screenshot of the character's long-term idle animation. Bonus style points awarded for idling in a particularly dangerous or hilarious place. Oh, and idling in a TF2 idle server is a disqualification.
Did I mention I like to DANCE - Find a game where there is dancing. Dance. Post video of your character dancing. Alternatively, dance in real life. Post video of you dancing. DANCE. DANCE. DANCE. DANCE. DANCE.

Sort of FYI for GoL contestants, bombs interact with the rolling balls. I didn't see that listed anywhere in the actual level, and it can at times help.
I got a little bit faster with a fully equipped character on the xbox version, but this is the best I can do with 1st level items (aka no items). I'm really curious to see a sub-4 minute video.

Does Audiosurf still have limits on the length of the files it will play?
1:45h to go
Share one of your favorite moments in gaming. It can be anything you like; your first experience with a video game, wasting tons and tons of quarters in the arcade, playing N64 for the first time, etc.
I love cool stories people share about how special video games are to them and how they have effected their lives.
Sick!
Your chimney appears to be on fire.
Pretty sure it will have just damn good solid run, with slight spear skipping. Especially on that room where you need to first go around the corner to a higher ground to be able to grapple ring and rappel up.Keeping your winning secrets to yourself, hm?
And fast Xoloth's fire trap for sure. I don't see him using any relics or artifacts, especially when relics need you to get gems / kill enemies to get the power up. But can't wait to see the run for sure.
It's supposed to be like that, too hot to handle!

Challenge #3 UPDATE - This is the run, guys. Don't think I can get much lower than that. I managed to do a flawless run without the mistakes you're gonna see me do in the video.
3:51 baby.

Woah, holy crap, that first one is done in the last 24hours? Just making sure
The manor is an old house I inherited from my old character.
Thanks a lot GAF for getting me addicted to another game... (I'm not mad about it, Terraria is awesome!!!)

So I finally perfectly nailed the fire trap section, and generally did well everywhere else.
