Hey there,
I have realized that on my DLSite version (version 1.01) I can do the skip to the right where you go down to the green key just fine. Reference video: https://nico.ms/sm38641001?from=1499 However, I cannot do it on either version 1.02a or the Steam version (version 1.02c).
Just thought to mention it if nobody has realized yet, cause I guess it would be important to differentiate between the versions then as that glitch saves a lot of time. Hope this is helpful.

Hello, and thank you for your insight!
Yes, it's possible to add separate categories for the different patches. I wonder if we should keep parallel rankings, or if we should stick to the newer version and put the rest in a Misc leaderboard. It's a little tricky if the only tangible difference is in one level out of fifty.
The categories still need some cleaning up, since Alt-F4 skipping cutscenes was never considered and seems to be about as quick as New Game+ anyway. I'll need to do some comparisons.
The game could be receiving more content updates though I don't know when. The leaderboard could be totally overhauled then, but for now I'll think about the version split.
Thanks again.
Hi again,
I haven't found any other differences so far other than 9-1, but I think it would make sense to keep them on different leaderboards rather than putting the older versions into a misc. category, especially since there might be more content updates in the future and therefore would put the current version in a weird spot again.
As for the cutscene skipping I guess it is technically a New Game run, but maybe we'd need to make the rules a bit clearer. I don't think it makes much sense to put it in the New Game+ category, because I think New Game+ would be a bit faster than having to restart the game, right?
Edit: On a sidenote, I just realized that the game's platform is currently only PC, right? I think it would be safe to add Switch as well now then as there is a Switch version of the game now.

Yeah I'll just add more variables, so long as the leaderboards don't get too bloated.
As for the cutscene skipping, I meant more that NG+ seemed a little redundant in light of the skip, since my idea was for NG+ to be a much shorter run than the cutscene-heavy NG, but the gap between categories turned out much shorter.
Oh yes, I'll add a Switch variable.
