Played on September 14th 2023 using Mesen-S.

Tried it for the longest time with the original SNES controller but couldn't get accurate and consistent enough with the D-pad. Started doing keyboard runs after about 300 controller runs. Best I did with a controller was a 22:02 with a botched last level where I didn't have enough specials so I had to take a few deaths.

Utilized the same route I did on Amiga (relied heavily on the ground work laid by Drumboardist, NaMeFaKeR89 and Eino). As with Amiga, I go for more early enemy kills to be able to skip stuff later on. Killed the last three hands in 3-2 to make sure I had enough money. I did have to change a couple of things due to different enemy patterns. I also struggled a lot with the slow-downs that aren't present on the Amiga run. Not a perfect run by any means but a lot of things went right, mainly with how the CPU acted this time with letting us get most of the bounty and not dying too much.

Some very clear mistakes which delayed me a bit but nothing too drastic. MS-DOS version next :)

I'm sad you can't skip the maze on SNES but not once did it screw me during actual runs. Corrected splits:
