What are the common categories for speedruns?
While answering this question I discussed the meaning of any% in the speedrunning community, which simply refers to completing the game as quickly as possible while being permitted to ignore side-content. Similarly, there is a 100% speedrun category where the player must complete all content available in the game as quickly as they can.
I thought these two types of speedruns were the only categories in the community, but a user in the comments mentioned low% or 0% speedruns where players avoid any upgrades in the game, if available.
Are there any other common categories for speedruns apart from any%, 100%, or low%?
