The grind is over. I wanted to just be happy and stop when I got my second 22:10 that choked castle, but I really wanted to keep playing to get a better time. A trick that I used a lot was Astix Cycle. It is a trick in 5-T which allows for 559 doors. I got it a total of 19 times in runs, however this run did not get it, which just made the time even more insane.
I will likely move on to other categories for quite some time, and will stream them actively at https://www.twitch.tv/cadens225
Mistakes of the run: Lost a bit of time to not jumping off Goomba in 1-1 as well as not getting goomba boost, lost a few frames due to a weird turnback I did in 1-3 during the triple jump, I got a 92 piranha which is really sloppy, did not go for pipekick in 5-3 but the 5-3 was pretty solid, my spins were pretty slow in 5-T as well as not getting astix cycle, I missed a crouch jump off the conveyor in 5-4 that saves around .7 (although nobody has ever done that in a run before and if you go for bombful you cannot go for that), also did not go for bombful, I could save quite a few frames in 8-1 by sliding down more slopes, my 8-2 was pretty good but I could have gone for a harder way of grabbing the star called rsg that saves .3-.4 as well as possible timesave on the turnaround to the secret exit pipe, I could have slightly faster jumps in 8-7, the airship could have been a bit faster with a few things especially last screw (although the airship was really good), and finally although the castle was also pretty good I could save a bit there with slightly more optimal movement.
The amount of mistakes may seem huge, and it is, but that does not mean I am not happy with the run. Playing consistent is very difficult, and I can't wait to see how far the game is pushed from here.
Note: Y4ck3rTr4ck3r is probably going for sub 22, once he gets it it will be by far the best speedrun this game has ever seen.
