It was a pleasure collaborating with the REPO speedrunning community, moderator Quack!, and mod developer Lars to develop the REPO Seeded Mod for this tournament.
This mod ensures that key game elements are generated consistently across players, maintaining fairness and predictability in 1v1 seeded runs. The seeded elements include valuables, monsters, monster timers, new account variances, levels, shop items, shop re-rolls, monster orb values, and Taxman text. The mod allows players to focus on strategy and skill, while preserving the excitement of each run.
This is the second R.E.P.O speedrunning event I've hosted. As part of the project, I developed a tool that allows all shoutcasters of this and any future race-type events to re-stream two Twitch or YouTube channels simultaneously. This overlay ensures a professional and consistent presentation for live events, addressing common community challenges where the willingness to organize exists but the technical setup may be difficult or time-consuming.
The overlay was specifically designed for this tournament but is flexible and reusable for other speedrunning events. It supports player names, profiles, channels, background images, timers, and race headers.

There is no prize for this tournament except bragging rights. This is to ensure it is all for fun.
