Speedrun newbie here. I love Crash Bash and all its jank, so I decided to make it my first speedrun. I have discovered that it really is harder than it looks! On my first attempt, I got 3:26:06 with Coco (1 player, Any%, no MM). I'm letting the video upload to youtube overnight, so I'll submit it tomorrow.
I'd like to speed up, and I think the first thing I can do to improve my time (besides playing Kong) is manipulate/bait the AI. Does anyone have any advice on this? Especially in the Panic levels - those are my weakness right now.
EDIT: Here's the video, in case someone wants to see me fail at Panic minigames a lot.
Baiting the AI is mostly as easy as standing still, but sometimes they stop targeting you entirely and wind up wasting a lot of time anyway so it remains a luck game
