Really proud of this new WR!

But, there is a lot of time to be saved in Stage 3 by dropping left of the 2 fire rats at the and of the stage and not take a second intentional death. There's also a lot of free seconds in Stage 5 if you find a way to prevent the enemies from spawning. Happens in 1 of 5 runs. I don't think sub 6 is impossible.
