Paradox Embrace

Posted by DiMono - January 14th, 2010


So there's this game called Paradox Embrace which has some ad space on the front page, and has medals associated with it. Three of those medals are for finishing levels quickly: Speedy Runner is for doing levels 1-5 in under 20 minutes, Spacetime Traveller is for levels 6-9 in under 20 minutes, and Paradox Embracer is for doing the whole game in under 19 minutes.

My best time for the game was a little over 17 minutes, and this afternoon I cranked the quality down to low and gave it another go. Man, did it ever make a difference! I now believe all my level times are within 1 or 2 seconds of being optimal, as listed below. My total game time is down from over 17 minutes to 16:00 even.

So this post is partly me bragging about my times, and partly me giving some advice: if you're struggling with your level times for the speed run medals, play this game on low quality even if you think you're getting proper performance at high; you may be pleasantly surprised.
