Coding a replay recorder for Silksong [C#/Unity]

Briefing

The Silkstream mod is an exciting addition for speedrunners in Silksong, allowing players to record their gameplay and race against their own ghost replays. This feature not only enhances the competitive aspect of the game but also fosters community engagement as players share their best runs.

Developers should take note of the implementation techniques using Bepinex and Harmony for modding, which could inspire similar tools in other projects. The ability to inject code and create dynamic gameplay experiences is a valuable skill in today's game development landscape.
