Context, I just beat the game casually and then closed the game. Reopened it (while recording) and reset data to do a Story Mode New Save speedrun. Wasn't happy with the starting so reset data again, next time I picked up the gun thing I was autofiring from the 2nd weapon.

I haven't been able to replicate this.

If this could be done just from getting the 2nd weapon, resetting data twice in this weird way, would that even be allowed for New Save?

Thanks.

I'll try and do it again to see wtf is going on but I'm guessing it only works because of the door closing. If we can somehow get to the bottom loading zone of every level with some weird tricky movement then the whole any% run is dead.

When this becomes confirmed by Fin and Kohlmannm (I could be lying and faked it, but I swear to God it's real), then will it be allowed in Any% NLS? No Level Skip already literally skips a level anyway (but allowed because it's not using the level skip glitch, like this).

this run 1 year ago was the first record below 5 minutes.

Just thought I'd post it before it gets lost, when I beat the current wr for any%

watch and enjoy :)))

If you press restart challenge while changing the rotation, then that rotation carries over to the restarted challenge. https://twitter.com/The_Costanza22/status/1042519870196183040 I would like to test what happens if you start a new game, but it would set me back too far lol

I don't know how it happened but I was walking around in 3.8, and without even getting a different colour I decided to turn off my game (I play on switch). The next morning when I loaded the game back up and pressed continue, I was at floor 3, level 9. I am very confused, but also I am not complaining because 8 looked like a bitch to complete anyway.

I don't know if this is known, but I noticed that if you teleport and then press restart challenge, you teleport normally but your colour changes to white. Could be useful in some places, I'm not really sure. It's hard to follow the pace of wr and I haven't even finished the game casually yet lol

Also, are there any side effects in teleporting while changing level?

I'm getting a new computer hopefully within the month, gonna be a beast haha

also thanks for mod

also sorry for wasting your time this is a stupid forum post I only made it to acknowledge I got mod :)

https://discord.gg/gJJhg3r

I have a big ego and took it upon myself to make a discord. I'll give Harmonic the big admin role because he's obviously the mod here. Then he can do whatever he wants with the server.

kinda lonely being the only one in a server

I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but the in-game timer is heavily affected by lag. I can't even get a sub-2 when recording but as soon as I stop I get one first try (not too hard). I'm not sure what can be done to fix this problem, but I can suggest that picture proof be good enough? Recording the end screen with confetti (would be quite hard to edit the numbers if the confetti goes behind it). At least the last level with time included should do it?

These ideas sort of hinder strategy sharing, seeing the best routes in action which would suck.

This is the reason I won't upload any IL's unless I find a strat unused in the WR.

The glitches have been talked about here before in other forum posts.

Not sure if the IL strats are new, I didn't watch all the IL runs haha

There's one thing I'd like to know: is wall jumping normally faster or is this wall climbing using item equip faster? Obviously I mean when using Time Attack method of timing (IL). It also seems that whenever you need to climb a wall with the giraffe, I suppose climbing with item equip is faster since you can hold the button while sliding on a wall and as soon as you stop sliding then item equip menu will show up, instead of waiting for however long to use the giraffe.

I don't know if I'm being an idiot right now, but I think spamming the item equip button as you're falling makes you fall quicker? Seems to me that's how it works.

Regardless, pressing item equip after going on something that jumps you (ziplines, trampolines, etc.) will make you go less high/less far, which is great since there's no time penalty for going into item equip mode (well I have my suspicions it charges you the few millisecond fade ins and outs, but it's pretty hard to time something like that)

This is definitely not the most useful thing ever but I guess it could save half a second here and there...

Also, with the skull perhaps we could just negate time altogether by using glitches in the forums below please like and share and comment and subscribe thanks (haven't tested this at all which is why it's a "could")

If you equip skull, press A to view it, hold down start and press X (or item equip button) to put it away, you will now be moving around with the pause menu on screen.

If you press X, and view the skull then you can walk around with that on screen as well.

This could lead to crazy shit I'm sure, please let me know if you find something cool with it :)

While in control of the robot thing, if you die and press x, y or a (switch, not sure what the buttons are on other platforms), the camera will be stuck on the robot thing but you can move your character at the same time. Seems pretty useless right now but I want to test going to new areas or press r on switches and etcetera.

At the sand arena, there's some idiot that blocks you from going in. If you hold item equip button after talking to him, he will try to speak to you at the same time as opening the item equip and this freezes the game.

I'm pretty sure that when you get blown up, you can jump again. It's not easy to repeat this and try it over and over but I'm pretty sure it's a thing.

Btw, if you get hit just spam jump so you don't fall all the way down

If you walk over mid air and slash your sword, you are allowed to jump mid air. This might create some skips or time saves.

if you press the item equip button (shift on pc) after wall jumping, then you can climb the wall without using the giraffe. It is possible to go through that part at the end of the opening, but it leads to a dead end. I have no idea if there are any spots in the game where you don't have the giraffe so this is probably pretty useless.

I managed to do a dash-wall jump (my name for the tech used at the end of summit b-side) on a wall with spikes on it. I don't know how but I didn't die and shot off in the direction the spikes were facing.

Version was 1.2.1.11 as far as I know.

Is this known?

In chapter 2, when LIE comes and makes you do that rain puzzle, if you seperate loss before leading him there and then arrange loss while he is between you and the l, the word loss will appear behind you and then you can lead him to his fiery death. Completely useless, but maybe this sort of thing could be used elsewhere?
