Oh. My. God. I can't believe I just did that. For the first time ever Subnautica has been beaten in under 30 Minutes. This was quite the journey, lots of grinding, practicing, but it all paid off in the end. Might take a break now, might not, we'll see.

The objective of Any% is to complete the game as fast as possible, this includes exploiting the game's various glitches to our advantage. If you want to see a run without glitches there are several glitchless speedruns you can find on the official Subnautica leaderboard.

Q: How are you accessing the locker while outside of the lifepod? A: If you open the lifepod locker and then immediately exit the lifepod, the next time you open your PDA you can access that locker from anywhere. The same effect can be achieved by throwing a flare and trying to open a locker at the same time. This also works on the console version.

Q: How is your seaglide so fast? A: "Mushrooms damage the base, if you damage it enough it starts flooding. If you are in a base when it floods or you are in a flooded base and you deconstruct and reconstruct the hatch or a window the game will think you are both swimming and walking at the same time so it puts those two speeds together. Pretty fantastic, makes you go really fast, called Super Seaglide." -Salvner
