I was wondering what programs are allowed for online Co-Op. I know Fightcade FBNeo was accepted earlier. How about Parsec? Are there any other Online services that would be acceptable?

Messing around today with button combinations and apparently each character has a back attack which is performed simply by hitting back and attack within a few frames of each other. Percival's is particularly good and I've been rerouting some of the levels to see where this tech can be used. For some enemies you can combo back attack -> heavy which saves time over heavy -> heavy. :)

Below is my current level 2 PB after about a week of running utilizing some Back Attack Tech (1:24 IGT)

Hello,

Wanted to start running this gem but I don't currently have a means to run on real hardware. Are there any emulators that are banned? I was thinking about running on the most recent version of Fusion or Bizhawk.

Today the rules denote a requirement to fight the Minotaur and go through stage 5 for good ending. I've been doing some runs to see if going through 5' (sunken city) and it looks like the times are comparable when you skip saving Annette. How do we feel about modifying the rules to allow for this path as well? (You still get the good ending credits doing this alternative path). I guess this would also bring up if bad ending we would open it up to simply not saving Maria/Annette. In the foreseeable future dropping down into 4' would be faster, but I think it would be a nice nod to potential future runners to try their luck at other paths and maybe a wrong warp might just exist in 4 or 5'.

I was hoping to start speed running this game in November, can we add a new category for Whip Only - Hard Mode?
