Hello everyone!

Something strange happened in one of my runs at the end of papu papu boss fight. For some reason I managed to cancel the victory animation before crash jumps on papu's belly.

First of all is it a known thing?

Secondly doest it save time? I tried to compare with a normal fight ending, and it doesn't seem to skip anything but I prefer to be sure.

Here's a link to show what happened:

If you want to reproduce it, I think I did a spin input at the same frame crash should begin his animation.

While I was experiementing with Cortex (in Crash 3), I skipped an animation just by jumping few times so I think it'd be related to that. It doesn't seem to save time.

You can skip a lot of Crash's victory animations throughout the game. The time it takes after beating the boss seems to be set and is always the same, regardless of whether or not the animation played.

This confirms it. There is no time to gain by doing shady tricks like this. Topic closed I think. Thanks everyone! :)
