I like Ocarina of Time 100%. So let’s take a look at that.

Identify what you want

First up we need the game’s ID and category ID. That’s easy:

So we’re good.

Note that I’m useing max = Inf to make sure I get all the runs.

str(oot100)

We want some additional data:

library(dplyr)
library(knitr)

oot100 <- oot100 %>%
  add_platforms() %>%
  add_regions() %>%
  find_records()

oot100 %>% 
  arrange(time_hms) %>%
  select(time_hms, player_name, date, system_platform, system_region) %>%
  head(10) %>%
  kable()
time_hms player_name date system_platform system_region

Category Overview

Now we can take a look at the categories (recent) history, with highlighted records:

library(ggplot2)
library(ggrepel)
library(hrbrthemes)
library(hms)

oot100 %>%
  filter(time_hms < hms::hms(hours = 6)) %>%
  {
    ggplot(., aes(date, time_hms)) +
      geom_point(size = 1, alpha = .75) +
      geom_point(size = 2, data = filter(., record), aes(color = player_name)) +
      geom_label_repel(data = filter(., record),
                       aes(label = time_hms, color = player_name),
                       fill = "white", show.legend = F) +
      scale_x_date(date_breaks = "6 months", date_labels = "%b '%y") +
      scale_y_time(breaks = seq(2 * 60^2, 20 * 60^2,  1/3 * 60^2),
                   minor_breaks = seq(2 * 60^2, 20 * 60^2, 5 * 60)) +
      scale_color_brewer(palette = "Dark2") +
      labs(title = "Ocarina of Time: 100% Speedrun Record History",
           subtitle = paste0("All data from speedrun.com (n = ", nrow(.), ")"),
           x = "Date of Run", y = "Time",
           color = "Runner", caption = "Data limited to sub 6h runs") +
      theme_ipsum() +
      theme(legend.position = "top")
  }

Please note that the data on speedrun.com does not cover the whole history. There are lots of older runs missing here, and unless the mods come together und do some historic backlogging, that’s as good as it gets for now.

We can also take a look at the recent developments:

library(lubridate)

tmp <- oot100 %>%
  filter(time_hms < hms::hms(hours = 4, minutes = 30),
         date >= ymd("2018-01-01")) %>%
  select(player_name, time_hms, date)

bind_rows(
  tmp,
  tmp %>%
    group_by(player_name) %>%
    summarize(time_hms = min(time_hms), date = today()) %>%
    ungroup
) %>%
  {
    ggplot(., aes(date, time_hms, color = player_name, fill = player_name)) +
      geom_point(size = 1, alpha = .75) +
      geom_step() +
      geom_label_repel(data = .
                       %>% group_by(player_name) %>%
                         summarize(y = min(time_hms), x = max(date)),
                       aes(label = paste0(player_name, ": ", y), x = x, y = y),
                       color = "black", alpha = .75, show.legend = F,
                       hjust = 1, direction = "y", nudge_x = 60^2) +
      scale_x_date(date_breaks = "1 month", date_labels = "%b '%y",
                   limits = c(as.Date(NA), today() + days(45))) +
      scale_y_time(breaks = seq(0, 20 * 60^2,  1/12 * 60^2),
                   minor_breaks = seq(0, 20 * 60^2, 1/24 * 60)) +
      scale_color_brewer(palette = "Dark2", guide = F) +
      scale_fill_brewer(palette = "Dark2", guide = F) +
      labs(title = "Ocarina of Time: 100% Speedruns in 2018",
           subtitle = "All data from speedrun.com",
           x = "Date of Run", y = "Time (H:M:S)") +
      theme_ipsum(grid = "X") + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(hjust = 0))
