so im thinking about trying to start speed running tmnt 4 turtles in time. im a little unclear about the rules for the speed run. can i change the amount of lives i get in the settings?

you are better off asking in the TMNT 4 TIT forum https://www.speedrun.com/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles_IV_Turtles_in_Time/forum
