no worries. i've done the same.

the leaderboard (and rules) are located at https://www.speedrun.com/faw4tct#100_2P but you should also join the speedrunning discord server https://discord.gg/aDAAYQk

the main thing is consistency. the biggest time loss is dying and having to restart the level. however, getting a deathless run takes a lot of attempts and grinding to build said consistency.

just complete one branch. in other words, complete any level with a green gem and all the levels leading up to it (in order ofc)

honestly, you just gotta watch the wr runs to see what they do, then come check out the discord (https://discord.gg/aDAAYQk) if you have more questions.

If we remove those, i think we should also actually list official versions to make sure people know if they're using the correct version
