Misadventures of P.B Winterbottom leaderboards
Posted On: March 24, 2023

The Misadventures of P.B Winterbottom is absolutely brilliant (if maybe a little short). Anyway, now that I've finished it, I'm in the process of going through the bonus shorts (levels), and am somewhat curious as to how some people could have possibly posted the leader board times that they have. Some levels have been beaten in as little as 5 seconds, when the target time to beat is 30 seconds. I suspect a degree of hacking is going on, but these times are posted through Steam. Any thoughts as to what might be going on? .


A good example (for other P.B Winterbottomers out there) is the bonus level called Cream of the Clock. (It is possible that the people who have posted these times are just THAT good, but I'm still sceptical.).


Question from user Albort at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

I actually know the guy who set the Cream of the Clock record during the weekly competition they were having for that game, he has a video of it here (4.66s). Some games have glitches that let you get times you shouldn't be able to get on the leaderboards, but most of the time it's just people pulling off really impressive runs.
