Possible to have a few cuts here and there: -forgot to buy turbo power after area 1 -spent 4 more seconds in the shop after area 2 -didn't really need to buy anything after area 5 -going undamaged on bosses with maxed weapon 2 can save 1-2 cycles on each boss (where I didn't use it or lost it) Additional info*: best weapon set - 2 and T worst set - 3 or (probably) 5 *only true against bosses
