Wow. Good Job! Are there any special movement glitches you've discovered that just make you move quicker?
Sounds fun. I can imagine it would be pretty RNG dependent, but it could definitely work.
as for the tutorial, you can easily get past the locked door, but it puts you above the final room which lowers the time by a lot.
I assumed that the gauntlet category would only include the first 12, but removing old runs is also a valid strategy.
