1. You can skip the balloon pump in Lily's house by jumping into the load zone from the back of the house. Can get past the wall from the bookshelves and just have to jump and curve in towards camera at the doorway for the momentum to make it. This prevents you from spawning balloons outside the ones initiated from dialogue, but all the required balloons are from dialogue, so as long as you don't lose your wheel and flower, it should save time.

2. You can skip talking to Swally and make it to Projecto just with the flower and wheel. This prevents all ropes from spawning in though, including the ones in the Ringmaster's tent. As far as I know this means that section can't be completed, but if there's some movement tech that could make it past that section it could save time. I tried dismounting wheel to regrab a dropped flower midair but that doesn't seem to refresh the float unfortunately, and likely wouldn't give the height needed anyways.

3. You can get around the invisible wall to the sides of the path to the Ringmaster's tent, but despite my best efforts I wasn't able to find any geometry past it. I'd guess it doesn't spawn in unless you've talked to Lily after getting the clues, but I can't say whether the loading zone is there. It could be possible to blindly float into it if you could get enough height, but I haven't managed to yet.

4. You can climb theoretically infinitely with freeform balloon stacking, which could possibly be used to get over the invisible wall to the Ringmaster's tent. Getting them to stay where you want them is finnicky at best, and I wasn't able to get any higher than a normal jump spin with the flower would've. Unlikely to save time what with the cooldown on balloon spawning, but could possibly have use if the loading zone for the tent is spawned in.

Was watching a speedrunner on twitch and he got a snowball kill on the dragon and that sparked the joke of snowball%, which eventually lead to the idea of iron golem%. An IL where you create an iron golem as fast as possible. Thought I'd post a thread to see if the category could possibly be added.

I understand its Alto's adventure but the other characters are there so why not be able to use them? Maybe have separate leaderboards for each character with the individual run types, or atleast one run type for each of the other characters

It says time ends when the menu shows up but all the runs are ending their times when fuel shows 0.

I think it'd be cool to have a central place for runners to be able to talk to eachother easier. I have no experience making discord servers, so it'd be up to somebody else, but I thought I'd bring up the idea.
