I would like to submit a speedrun for this game, but under a different category, as I have played it on the Colecovision. The game is too different to submit to an existing category, I think. Here is a run I did today to give an idea of what this looks like:

Thank you for your time. Here's a direct link to the game: https://www.speedrun.com/Pepper_2
