Jumping forward increments the screen slightly, so do it as much as possible!
How do I invert the X-axis? I see the option for Y-axis, but didn't know if there is a work around for the X-axis. Not having it as an option is crushing my muscle memory.

I think it makes the most sense to have the fastest Tribe as the 1st one and to have the subsequent Tribes (fastest to slowest) after that. So, I will readjust them to reflect the WR of each categories according to Any% each time the order would change.
Only 298/300 is possible without doing multiplayer, so the current 100% is 298/300. Otherwise, people on emulator or those who don't have two DS's couldn't compete.
If you are missing points, remember that you will need to enter all the codes for skins, Upchuck, and the final Bonus Challenge (check forum post).
Each of these codes are used on the world map screen.
Bonus Challenge - "Left, L, Right, R, Up, Down, Select" Upchuck - "A, Left, Y, Right, X, Up, B, Down, Select" Ultra Ben Skin - "Up, Right, Down, Left, A, B, Select" Gwen 10 Skin - "Left, Right, Left, Right, L, R, Select" Galactic Enforcer Skin - "A, B, X, Y, L, R, Select"
If you enter a new skin, that is the one that will be active when you enter a level. Also, you will need to reenter a skin code when after you reload the game, otherwise you will have the default skin.
Each code will give you 1 extra point on your file (you will not earn 1 point per level on the Bonus Challenge, which is unlike every other one)
Insane Mode is unlocked by collecting all 30 Sumo Slammer cards. In Insane Mode, you will also have the ability to switch between aliens without reverting back to Ben first (still have a limited time though).

The link below is for a spreadsheet that attempts to quantify a speedrunner's total body of work. A runner's rank in a category will earn them points and those points are used to give each runner a total score.
